LADS CURIOSITY BUMP
CAUSES LOSS OF MEMBERS

The unusually well developed curl
osity bump of Otto Bruner, the ten
year-old son of Mrs Bruner of this
city, got the young lad into some un.
expected trouble on Wednesday when
he attempted to try out the relative
power behind dynamite cap which
had been carelessly dropped by the
railroad.
As result of his investigation, the
thumb and first two fingers of his
left hand were blown SO nearly off
that it was found necessary to ampu-
tate them. DR.. Burgin dressed the
injured member and he is reported
recovering as rapidly as could natur-
ally be expected.
