glass and bows with it. It was neces
sary to cut the bows before they could

back and face and Lundy in the breast.
When Lundy turned tho revolver on
himself ho killed himself instantly.

all right?' The marker replied, 'All
right, sir, In a minute.' But, unluck
ily, Sir Henry took 'All right, sir,' In
stead of tho whole sentence, and re
moved tho telephono from his ear.
Ho lay down and fired his Bhot, and,
on looking through tho telescope to

you badly hurt?' 'No, sir, I am not
hurt; but I, had a bucket of white
wash botween my legs, pajnting the
target, nnd you put a bullet Into It
and splashed It all up In my faco!' "
