BOY KICKED BY HORSE
AND PROBABLY FATAL

White Lake, s. D.-The 11-year-
old son of MI. and Mrs. Harry Schil-
Ling, living or a farm near White
Lake, was perhaps fatally hurt as
the result Of being kicked in the
head by one of his fathers horses.
He was found in a field some distance
from the house in an Unconscious
condition. He was terribly injured,
his skull having been fractured to
such an extent that brains oozed
from the opening through the skull.
The boy had been sent out a short
time before to a pond some distance
away to procure a barrel of soft
water. The barrel was on a wagon
drawn by a single horse. The boy
had unhitched the horse preliminary
to filing the barrel with water when
the animal evidently kicked at him
and struck him in the head. The boy
remains in an unconscious, condition
and there are no hopes OF his recoy-
