VICTIM OF CUNNING ACCIDENT

With the right side of his neck and
head filled with shot and wadding,
Howard Bayne, aged "a years, of Cecil
ton. Nd, was admitted to the Delaware
Hospital, Wilmington, Tuesday after
noon, an accidental victim of his own
shotgun. His condition is serious, but
it is thought he will recover
Bayne, from what could be learned
about the case from him, was-Out gun
ming Tuesday. He had crawled through
q fence or thicket and reached back
to drag his gun through after him. In
some manner the trigger caught on a
twig. and the weapon exploded.
The full charge struck the young man
in the side of the neck and head, but
fortunately for him it was more of a
glancing blow, otherwise his head pro-
badly would have been blown off. He
was found by companions, placed on a
train and rushed to the hospital. For
several hours the hospital physicians
were busy picking the shot and waddng
from Bayne's neck and head. The
foreign substance had lodged mostly in
the muscles and had not penetrated to
any vital spot.

CONTROLLING FIRE PANICS

A N investigation has been conducted
"A by a coroner's jury at Calumet
Mich. into the responsibility for the
fire panic borrow at the miners Christ
mas tree. It is an inquiry worth at
teptiOn, dealing as It does with that
elusive and universal factor of the fire
peril. the hysteria of a frightened
crowd.
The hall where the Calumet tragedy
took place was considered reasonably
safe. In almost any public hall, no
matter how well provided with exits,
some fool may at any moment yell,
'.Fire, +" with results more or less dis
astrous and fatal.
A big Brooklyn school recently got
afire. The children were in real danger
But a fire drill soon landed them safely
in the street. Across the way there
was a factory. One would think adult
workers would behave better than
children, and anyway they were IN nc
danger. But they became frightened
tunbled over each other, and several
were badly hurt.
In New York factory, some one OBJ
serving two men in railroad yard hav-
ing a quarrel, yelled, Eight" :" The cry
was echoed as, ''Fire, and several were
injured in the scrimmage that followed
A rat got loose in another shop, and a
number of girls were hurt in the
scramble.
Schools and factories can be made
safe BY good exits and well conducted
drills. In the occasional crowd packed
into hall or theatre, as at Calumet
there is q collective and contagious IN
sanity latent, to which an infiammable
mind can apply the spark.
No fire can destroy building without
considerable warning. From the trs'
Whit Of smoke to actual combustion is
ample time for escape, if exits are
decent, and provided people don t shove.
One brave woman, using her brains,
greatly mitigated the Calumet borrow
by sitting down at piano and playing
nOisily. 1t helped the crowd control
itself. People who manage public halls
and theatres should reflect on what she
accomplished. After seeing to their
exits let them have some one with
big voice ready to jump up in sight in
stantly and yell, ''sit down, then tel
the crowd what to do.
