MONTICELLO LAD ACCIDENTALLY SHOT
Ten-Year-Old Boys Play With Rifle and Chester Fross Was Shot in Neck Saturday. Monticello Journal Today Chester Fross, of Water street, is lying hovering between life and death as the result of the illegal use of fire arms by minors of very tender age. He and Thomas Meridith and several others about the same age were out Saturday afternoon with a small rifle of 25 special guage. The gun was in the hands of young Meridith and pointing in the direction of Fross. It went off, the bullet penetrating the left side of the boy’s neck low down to the shoulder and just to the rear of the jugular vein, thence it rounded backward through the heavy musele of the neck, stopping jiist under the skin. The wounded Jboy was taken to Dr. Gable’s office, where he was put under the influence of nitrous gas and the bullet ■quickly removed. The boy rested ■fairly easy yesterday but the inlerease in fever this morning caused [Dr. Gable to think it advisable to (administer anti-toxin, which was done this forenoon. There are various stories sis the ac- , cident; in one it is said that the Meredith boy pointed the gun at Fross and snapped the trigger not knowing that the weapon was loaded; another story has it that a cartridge was stuck in the barrel and he was trying to remove it when, the cartridge exploded with the barrel pointing at Fross. Be that as it may, the accident is a deplorable affair; one that would not have happened if the laws governing the sale of cartridges and the use of firearms had been more closely observed. The injured boy is the son of Mr. and Mrs. George Fross. The lad’s mother was formerly Miss Carrie Temple, well known to many Monticello people.
Pleasing Vaudeville at the Princess Monday Night.
•Manager George gave a very pleasing performance to his large audiences Monday night, and the stormy evening was not sufpcient to keep the children and their parents"away 77 E. S. Spencer and his little mare, “Snow* White Bonnie,” and Prof. C. A. Witte, a magician, gave one of the best vaudeville performances ever seen here, and coupled with it was Bathe’s Weekly Review and two other good films. Mr. Spencer’s home is at Hobart, near Gary, and he has been a showman all of his life, but only recently undertook the training of animals. His first experience was with dogs and goats, but the former was so common that it did not appeal to him and the goats are not only stubborn at times, but they are repugnantly odiferous all the time, and three years ago he begun to train “Bonnie.” The horse showed unusual intelligence and had a remarkable memory and his success with her has been very marked. The stage at The Princess was too small for her and the parformance was given on the main floor of the theatre and consequently could not be seen by all. The little mare responded cheerfully to the commands of its owner, however, and delighted every person in the hotfee. It is certainly a very intelligent animal and it will be pleasing to know that Mr. Spencer expects to come back this way in the spring. Mr. Witte also gave a very good exhibition of legerdemain and bewildered the audience by his tricks. Together the entertainment is a bargain at a quarter and the 10-cent price would pack the house on any bright afternoon and evening.

Miss Amy suffered an attack about a month ago and came out from it in fairly good*condltion. Another attack was threatened and Dr. E. N. Loy, the local physician, decided that an operation would be necessary and Dr. Peter S. Clark, a Chicago surgeon, was called and performed the operation. He said that the delay of a few hours would have seriously complicated the case, but now she seems on the road to recovery. J. F. Timmons, the brick mason, and his son, Russell, expect to start next Sunday for Corpus ( Ch rlstf, Tex., goipg via Hot Springs, Ark. They will work through the winter there, where wages are high for skilled mechanics. In the spring Mr. Timmons expects to again return to Jasper Mrs. S. P. Haskell arrived Saturday and Mr. Haskell came Sunday evening from Stark City, Mo., where they have been living, and he will at once become a partner with his sister, Mrs. J. H.Dunlap, In the management of ‘The White Bpardlng House,” formerly occupied by the hospital. Mr. Haskell came through with his household goods and some stock. Their plan Is to embark in. the boarding house business on a somewhat larger scare than heretofore.’

The course looks attractive and doubtless will prove pleasing and of the proper influence.
Violation of Law to Sell Fire Arms to Minors.
Monticello Journal. The inclination of young boys to imitate wild west scenes as are so vividly depicted in “Diamond Dicks” or more recently in a vicious class of moving pictures, culminating in the shooting of Chester .Fross Saturday evening by a playmate, calls attention to the law prohibiting the selling of pistols, cartridges, toy pistols or weapons of any kind to minors. Not many dealers are aware of the existence of this law, which was passed in 1905, and a part of which reads as follows: “It shall be unlawful for any person to sell, barter or give to any other person under the age of 21 years any' pistol, dirk or bowieknife, slung shot, knucks or other deadly weapon that can be worn or carried concealed upon or about the person, or to sell, barter or give to any person under the age of 21 years any cartridges manufactured and designed to be used in a pistol or revolver. Any person who shall violate any of the provisions of this section shall be fined not less thin five dollars nor more than fifty dollars.” Section 451 makes it unlawful to sell or give away to any person or to offer or expose for sale any toy pistol that explodes caps or wafers. Penalty, a fine of $lO to SSO. Secfion 452 provides a fine of from SIOO to SSOO for pointing at any person a pistol, revolver or gun of any Isind, either loaded or emjrty.
Evelyn Rogers Escapes From the Martha Home.
Evelyn Rogers, the woman who lived in one of thj shaeks on Main street north of the Babcock & Hopkins’ elevator, and who has been the cause of considerable excitement at Lafayette recently, is again is the limelight. She is supposed to have left with “Bill” Martin, after separating Martin and his wife, and the next heard from her she had caused'the arrest at Lafayette of Tucker Nash, a cab driver, charging him with criminal assault. She played, the “innocent” quite well and was the cause of much solicitation among the sympathetic at the Martha home at Lafayette until Mrs. Martin appeared and “read her pedigree.” Evelyn then confessed and tried to end her life by drinking wood alcohol, but was rescued by the doctors and a stomach pump. She was taken back to the Martha home from the hospital and an effort was being made to reform her, but Saturday night she and another girl named Loveless, the home of both having formerly been Monon, escaped by climbing out of a window of the Martha home and they have not yet been located. * .

Only Hotel at DeMotte Will Soon Quit Business.
Woe to travelers in the north end of Jasper county. The best hotel in Indiana is going out of business. Mrs. Mary E. Troxell, for years the proprietor-of the Troxell house in that town, has sold the hotel building to Kase DeKook, the merchant, who will occupy it as a residence, and thus leave DeMQtte without a hotel Mrs. Troxell will come to Rensselaer about the middle of November and remain until about Dec. Ist with her brother, J. F. Bruner, after which she will go to Lawton, Okla., to take up her home ’ with . her daughter, Mrs. E. G. Warren. The Troxell house has been famous all over the country for its splendid table service and the wonder with all who have eaten there has been, “How.can she do it?” The question was never answered. Three times a day the table fairly groaned beneath a load of the choicest food. Several kinds of meat, several kinds of vegetables, several kinds of pickles and preserves and fruit and deserts. There never was a person who could eat a meal at* the Troxell house and enumerate all the things on the table after leaving it. Many times, with the table filled with things to eat, Mrs. Troxell apologized because of the “scant” meal. She did much of her own work, was a cook of ability and took great Interest in the comfort of her guests. The hard work has told on her of recent years and She is giving it up in order that she may enjoy some well earned comfort the balance of her life.
