GIRL SHOOTS HER
LITTLE BROTHER
SAMMY COIN HAS FORTUNATE
EscApE THIS AFTERNOON IN
ACCIDENTAL SHOOTING.

Little Sammy Cohn. aged six years
son of ice Cohn, 432 East Main street,
had an escape from death this after
noon about 1915 o'clock that was
nothing short of miraculous, when a
bullet from revolver In the hanos ol
his sister, Rosie, passed through MS
thumb and left hand and grazed Jan
gerouslyj across his breast. Inc a.
tending physician declared this a1ter'
noon that had the bullet passed an
inch farther to the left, the death OF
the little fellow would have re-
suited. ...-...,..
The shooting was accidental. Mr..
Cohn stated this afternoon that ne
had taken the loaded 32-caliber re-
volver from under his pillow ana
placed it in the show case in the
front of his store. The little girl went
to the case for a pencil and the re-
volver caught her eye. She picked 1t
up. not knowing that it was loaded.
Her little brother Sammy was stand
ing nearby. She pulled the trigger, In
playing with the gun. Her brother
screamed. Mr.. Cohn Immediately ap-
peared from the rear of the store and
seeing what had happened, called Tor
a physician. III
It was thought that the little fellow
ives seriously injured. In removing
the lads clothing, the bullet dropped
to the floor. Examination showed the
fortunate nature Of the accident. The
ball had passed through the boys
thumb and left hand and just broke the
skin on his breast, directly over the
heart Although the wound to his
hand is quite painful, Sammy will get
along alright. ...
