While attempting to pry the lead ball of a twenty-two calibre cartridge from the casing, Charles Childers, i twelve, of Kenton, Ohio, exploded the cartridge, the bullet entering his abdomen. He walked to a hospital, where an X-Ray examination showed the wound would not likely prove dan- ’ gerous. Officers of the Adams County Tuberculosis Prevention Society met at the library last evening and heard a splendid report from Dr. Hoffman who recently attended a convention of an-, ti-tuberculosis workers held in Chicago.

' A slight error was made last evening in the item giving the change ~f time on the G. R. & 1. The train on Sunday evening leaves here at 6:10.

Because of its unusual compactness and lightness, a new phonograph which has recently been developed is particularly adapted for use in a canoe or motor boat. Its construction is novel, for the horn forms a part of the body and thus greatly reduces its size. The instrument weighs only six pounds and fits into a case which may easily be carried on a camping trip or stored in a locker at a eanne house where it is accessible for use whenever wanted on the water. it plays disc records and is very inexpensive. An even dozen Indianians who are clerks in the pension office in Washington were notified yesterday that their salaries will be cut on July 1, the beginning of the new fiscal year.
