limself Friday about no n at bis
muntry home. “Fountaine, ‘ live

Mr. J >u°9 it 6 j ems h.vl found
an old 38-calibre revolver about
.he house and ccnc'.uded to give it
t thorough e'eanmg. In unbreai li
ng the weapon it was in some way
liechaigid.
He was not aware at the moment
that ho had been shot until the
discovery was made that there was
blood on his shirt -
The discovery t ightened him
somewhat and he ws ! k*d t> his
bed and fell pcToks it.
The report of his pistol was
neard by the family who hu-rnd
o the room. Messengers were at
mce dispatched to the city for
physicians who reached the young
man in a very sh >rt turn.
When it was fai.-d taat the
wound was not of a serious nature
he joy of the family may be imag
ined.
The°e were many exaggerated
’•eports circulated over the city in
regard to the young man’s condi
tion shortly after the accident oc.
curred bnt they, of c »ur. e proved
to be groodless.
Mr. Jones is inconvenienced
somewhat at present in having
to carry his arm in a sling, but
outside of that he is having im
trouble and hopes within a few
lays to be himself again.
