We regret to learn of the sad misfortune of Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Guthrie of Conrad, Montana, now mourning the death of their fif- teen-yearqold son, Cecil, who was shot by his brother, on the 8th inst, and .died' the following day. A letter to Court Durhalm C.O.F‘. here gives .particulars. 'It says in part: “On Saturday, April 8th, he was disking. His ‘brother Harry came up with a small 22 calibre. rifle, which he borrowed Ito shoot gophers. He had the rifle loaded. and thought the safety Was on. He was telling Cecil the rifle was loaded, and Cecil said he didn’t believe it, and to prove it, Harry raised the gun, and must have held his finger on the trigger, and shot Cecil in the stomach.” .‘ He was taken to the hospital .as quickly as possible, and an operation was performed, but the bullet could not be found. They. found it had gone through the stomach, the liver and the heart. He died Sun- day morning. Deceased was born on the 18th of December, 1896, and died on the 9th of April, 1911. The age given is 15 years, 3 months, 22 day-s, which shows an error of one year somewhere. Much sym- pathy will be felt here for Mr. and Mrs. Guthrie, in their sad af- fliction. ‘ Miss Dick will be in the city for a few days next week, attending the summer millinery openings. and buying a large and exclusâ€" 'ive selection of grand summer mil- l‘inery.
