CARELESS BOTS.
Attempt to Frighten a Comrade and
Accidently Shoot Him.
From the Adrian Advertiser 2nd.
Ed. Devine and Ervin Sparke aged
about 14 years, went to Austin, Cass
county, on Sunday, on a pleasure
trip, and they say they took revol
vers with them to kill birds. When
m the neighborhood of Austin, they
met a boy named Harvey Robinson.
The three were going along the
hedge fence hunting birds, when
Devine concluded he would scare
Robinson by shooting in the air. He
prepared to shoot when Robinson
walked around some nedge brush in
the path, and .Devine lowered his
revolver to keep Robinson from see
ing what he intended doing, when
the pistol struck his (Device's) leg
and was discharged, the ball taking
effect in Robinson's thigh. Devine
and Sparks became f reightened and
fled leaving young Robinson lyiftg
on the ground. He was found and
taken to his home when a physician
was summoned and the wound dress
ed. The wound is verv painful but not
necessarirly a fatal one. There ought
to be something done to prevent
boys from having revolvers. It would
be a good thing it the .Marshal
would search all the boys occasional
ly as there are several in this place
that own from one to a half dozen
old pistols.
Later : The boys were arrested
on Wednesday and taken to Austin
where they were tried and fined for
shooting on Sunday and carryng con
cealed weapons. Divine was fined
$20.00 and cost, amounting to about
$37, and Sparks was fined $10 and
cost, $23,50. Sparks is an orphan
boy, and rather than see him go to'
ail the citizens of Adrian, Archie
and Austin gave money to pay his
fine.
