BULLET HIS HEEL.
Nicola Casa!e Gets Souvenir of the
 Night Before Celebration.

At the Day Kimbail hospital on the afternoon of the Fourth a fattened bullet was removed from the left heel of Nicola Casale, about A. who was brought to the institution from Gros venordale, the village in which he was wounded accidentally, while out with a party of friends late on the might before"
 An examination of Casale when he was brought to the hospital here showed that the bullet had entered the leg about half way between the knee and the ankle. An X-ray machine was brought into use to locate the bullet, which, it was discovered by Dr. E. F. Perry, had lodged in the heel, evident ly having glanced after striking a bone in the leg. The bullet was removed. It was of .32 calibre.
 Casale does not know who shot him, as at the time when the accident oc- cured he was out with a party that were enjoying themselves A sting in the leg attracted his attention from the noise of discharging weapons and an examination showed the bullet wound. It is thought he received the bullet from a revolver that was pointed tow ard the ground by someone who had no other intention than to help make a noisy welcome to the Fourth. The wound is not regarded as dangerous unless complications arise.

In the evening the display of fireworks was also an at traction and one that drew automo- bile parties from various surrounding towns.

This clue is to be investigated The reck- lessness of the auto party and their failure to stop and aid those injured by their fool driving caused much ad- verse comment Friday.
