drew bead upon a small lighted lamp
setting upon table. net noticing that
his brother. Chester, stood Just beyond
with his back to the light, reading
something or other. He had no inten-
ton whatever Of shooting, but pressed
too hard upon the trigger OF the dou-
bic action gun and with a crash the
lampchimney was blown into bits.
Chester started to run from the plat
form crying, Il am shot"
The alarm was sounded, men carried
the boy to DIR. Hodda's office, and as
soon as Drs Rodda and Barbour could
be summoned all possible relief short
or an operation was given. The ball,
a 81 calibre, had passed entirely
through the body In the region of the
liver.
The accident occurred at $3.50, and
the gritty 12-yearrold. conscious
throughout. was taken 10 the hospital

morning. The report from there was
that upon operating they found that
the ball had ploughed furrow an inch
deep through the lower left lobe Of
the liver and passed through both
walls Of the stomach, but missed all
the intestines.
Mr.. and Mrs. Granger and Arthur
went with Chester to Miles City from
where Arthur returned on Monday.
Latest reports are to the effect that

sible under the circumstances and II
Is hoped that he will be sufficiently
