YOUNG LAD RE
CEIVES SERIOUS
GUNSHOT WOUND
While Paul Guthmann was Leaning
on Barrel of Weapon It Was
Accidentily Discharged.
From Monday's Dally
Yesterday shortly after the noon
hour, while Paul Guthmann and
Ewing Sharp were on their way to
enjoy a hunting trip in search of
ducks along the Missouri river bot
toms, Paul Guthmann was the victim
of a very serious accident that will
perhaps leave his right arm in a
partionally useless condition.
The boys were going through the
yards of the Burlington enroute to
the hunting grounds and it seems
that the twelve gauge shotgun of
Guthmann was cocked, he seeming
ly having forgotten this fact, set
the gun down butt first on the
ground and having the upper por
tion of the right arm over the end
of the barrel. The weapon was dis
charged, the shot and bullets enter
ing the arm and inflicting a very
serious wound.
The flesh and muscles of the upper
portion of the arm were torn and
some portions of the muscle and
flesh blown off by the force of the
discharge.
The injured boy was hurried to the
offices of the Drs. Livingston where
temporary aid was given and he was
then taken to Omaha and placed in
the St. Catherine's hospital for
treatment. It is not thought that the
injurv will necessitate the amputa
tion of the arm, but it will be a very
severe case to handle in order to give
the young boy the full use of the arm
as hhe had before and may result in
some crippled condition of the mem
ber. The lad is fourteen years of agej
and has made his home here for his
lifetime with Mrs. F. R. Guthman
and family who have reared him and
to the members of the family the ac
cident came as a very great shock.
SICK FOLKS IMPROVING
From Tuesday's Daily
The members of the "Walling fam

the highway to recovery from the
ordeal and soon be able to return
home to this city.
Thomas "Walling, Sr., who has been
confined to his home for the past two

Some" time ago the city council
had up for discussion the matter of
the improvement of that portion of
Fourteenth street west of the Ne

tween the paving at the Missouri Pa
cific passenger station and the inter
section of Webster boulevard.
The Missouri Pacific railroad com
pany is now going to co-operate with
the city in making this Improvement
in the street in the area named by
the donating of some fourten cars of
cinders that will be used in surfac
ing the highway and making it a
great deal more comfortable for
travel and also a greater convenience
for those who have hauling to do in
the vicinity of the railroad station.
There are a large number of oil tanks
located along the street and the Im
provement in the roadway will cer
tainly be a great convenience to the
parties who have hauling to do there.
This section of roadway is general

in wet weather and the deep mud
that has formed there has caused a
