X.RAY FOR HUNTSMAN
FRIEND SHOT FOR RABBIT
SarIes Declines to DivuIge
Name of Marksman,

An X-ray will be used on Charles
w. Sarles. of 159 Ward place, South
Orange. today, to determine the ex-
tent of his injuries. Mr.. Sarles was
shot by a companion while hunting
game near Bernardsville Saturday.
DR.. George H. Cobb, the attending
physician, has already ascertained
that his limbs contain a quantity OF
shot. Though serious, his condition
is said to be not critical.
Mr.. Sarles, accompanied by foul
friends. one of whom was Lester
Rockefeller. of Riggs place, South Or
ange. were searching for rabbits.
While Mr.. Sarles was in a clump OF
bushes a rabbit sprang out and one
Of the party, failing to see Mr.. Sarles,
shot into the shrubbery and Mr.
Sarles cried out.
& The friend whp fired the shot ran
to the bushes, fifty feet away, and
found Mr.. Sarles moaning. Taking
him to a physician, 1t was found that
even shot had been lodged in his
right leg, two in his left leg and one
in his right arm. Mr.. Sarles was re-
moved to his South Orange home,
where the physicians will endeavor to
remove the shot. One of the grains
pierced the left kneecap and water on
the knee is feared as q result.
Mr.. Sarles is employed in this city
as superintendent of the Hay iron
foundry. He will not make known
the name of the person who hot him,
maintaining that the shooting was
purely accidental.

CHICAGO, Nov. 4.-That the busi-
ness of the Kirby Savings Bank, a
private institution, with assets and
liabilities said to be about $3.50, 900,
had for a time been conducted by an
insane man was learned here when
federal officers took charge of the
bank.
William T. Kirby, president of the
bank, was adjudged insane in the
county court Friday and was placed
in a sanitarium in Winnetka, Ill. The
condition of the books and property
of the institution will not be known

ported. To avoid a panic among de-
positors of the bank the insanity
hearing was conducted with secrecy.
Later the cashier, D. j. Kirby, jr..
was arrested on a municipal court
warrant charging him with oper-
ating a confidence scheme.

In a few years, said the doctor, dis

will bear an important relation to
the human life. The discoveries, he
said, will result in prolonging exist
ence beyond h normal period, given
in the Bible as "threescore years and
ten"
