Went Off At The Wrong Time

Muskegon, Mich., Oct. 23.- Eliza Everts, aged 12 years, was shot in the breast with a single-barrel revolver which would not go off, except at the wrong time. The cap on the nipple would not explode, so he took hold of the barrel of the revolver with his right hand and placed the hammer on a fence rail. It went off and the ball penetrated the breast. His condition is not serious.
