Mrs Caroline House Shot In
Breast,

Montfort Mail: Quite a commotion
was caused in the vicinity of Mrs
Houses home Tuesday morning, when
the aged lady, who was out in her
yard, threw up her arms and cried,
"Oh, my God, [ am shot.
This proved to be true. A 80 caliber
bullet had struck her in t1e breast,
penetrated her clothing and made a
slight wound upon her body. The fact
that the bullet was almost spent &C
counts for the injury not being more
serious, possibly fatal. Some one in
the vicinity who was using a rifle or air
gun is responsible, and the practice
should be discouraged at once.
The injury was slight, but Mrs
House suffered nervous shock, from
which she will not recover for some
time.

c. A. Eiker of near Big Spr-
ings was in Ogalalla last Satur-
day and when first caught sight
OF thot to have lump-jaw, but
upon inquiry it was discovered
that when he tried to crank his
Ford one day last week it back
fired on him and he tried it
again. The tool thing kicked
back again. Mr. Eiker with his
usual determination grabbed the
crank with botll hands with the
result that the third time it not
only kicked back but kicked out
a couple of teeth and nearly
broke his jaw. He decided then
that it was time to investigate
and found that some one had
advanced the spark to the limit
and after retarding it the car
very meekly did its duty.-Keith

Investigation of Report of Death OF
John DUNCAN Reveals Fact That
Two John Dungans, Both Railroad

John DUNCAN a young railroad man
