ACCIDENTAL SHOOTING.
W. K. Bhotftfl John- Spires
Through »the T3roast.
An unfortunate nvcfAent occurred In
B. Sknlowskl’a pawn shop, on Cotton
avenue, at 6:30 o'clock Saturday night
that will probably bo serious, but not
fatal.
The shooting was done by ’W. K.
McRae, a clerk for Sktalowakl, nnd was
purely accidental.
A negro named*Charlie Bloom, who
bad Juft -arrived In tho cPty from Mnr-
fth-illvllle, went to the pawnshop to
oxchango an old pistol for a now one.
McRae waited on him and made him
unload the pistol, which hid one
cartridge In ft. He thon offered to
swap a new pistol for Bloom'** old ono
if Rloom would give him $2. Bloom de
clined and went off. but came back and
said he would ‘trade on -the terma of
fered. McRae again asked If the pis
tol was loaded and the negro eald no.
The trade was made nnd McTtao
snapped the pistol several times to see
If it -was all right. The fourth time ho
snapped it it fired and young Spires,
who was standing directly in front of
him, exclaimed that he wns shot, Mc
Rae was horrified at what tie hnd
done and rushed from behind the coun
ter to catch the youg man, who was
about to fall. Dr,- Hall was pissing at
the time of the accident nnd on being
called in 'took Splreo in his buggy and
carried him to Ms homo on Jackson
street in South Mhcon. When on ex-
amlatJon was made It was found that
the ball entered Juat below the right
nipple and lodged In the back.
No arrest was made, as it was clear
to every one prcBenft that tho shoot mg
was purely accidental. McRae didn t
even know Spiros’ namo.
