Average Length Of Life.

The man who lives till he is
more than a century old and the
child Who dies in infancy are
alike in the law of averages
They balance each others chances,
as it were.
Of 100000 people living at the
age of 10, only 95,614 will live to
the age of 21, only 82,284 will be
living at 40, only 40 will be living
at 96, and only 9 at 81. At &c
the average man may take it that
he has under IS years to live; at
40, under % years; at SO, under
81 years; at go, under IA years.
In eachsand all of these cases
how he lives will determine
whether he will have a longer life
or shorter life, but the average
! will infalIibly work out within 9

A HORRIBLE TRAGEDY.
Young Man PIaytu|Iy Points Loaded Gun
at his Sister and Kills Her.

A most distressing tragedy oc
CURED early last Saturday morn
ing at the home of T. E. MCGEE
TIT South Jackson street.
Claude McGee, about Is years

% years old, we're having q play
full scuffie i'll asroom of the house
The boy seized single barrel shot
gun, standing near by, and point
ing it at his sister, pulled the
trigger. There was loud report
and the girl dropped to the fool
dead. A charge of shot entered
the face Of the unfortunate girl
just below the eyes, making a hole
through her head. Death ensued
instantly.
The boy hurriedly found his
mother and told her what had
happened. Mr.. MCGEE was sent
for and notified of the affair while
neighbors at once came in to rem
der any assistance they could.
Mr.. McGee stated that he was
not in the habit of allowing the
gun to remain loaded, but that a
few days before the accident he
had loaded the gun to shoot a
bird. He failed to get shot and
neglected to unload the gun when
he returned it to it's place in the
house. He feels sure the boy was
unaware that the gun was loaded.
Coroner Dorsett was notified and
he called jury together and
made a careful Investigation of
the case. After considering the
evidence adduced the jury return
ed verdict to the effect that the
deceased came to her death by a
gun shot wound caused by the
careless and reckless handling of
gun in the hands of her brother.
The funeral was held Sunday
afternoon from the residence, the
interment being in Chestnut Hill
cemetery.
The members of the family are
utterly prostrated over the sad af-
fair, and they have the warmest
sympathy of the community in
their great bereavement.

pulled large chunk, and out
from the dirt and mass of roots
rolled the lost money. Mr.. Hum
