Last Saturday is distressing shooting accident happened near Broadbent, in thiadistrict. A number of gentlemen were hunting, among them being Rich ard H. Olmstead, of Walter- s Falls, near Owen Sound, and a companion named Morrison. They were still hun- ting and some distance apart and Mor- rison a-a'w a stir among some bushes and, without waiting to see the cause of a movement of y the bushes red at the place. It proved to have been Mr. Olmsteadwho had moved in the bushes and the bullet from Morrison's rid struck him on the left forearm smashing the bone. The injured man was re- moved to-the Parry Sound Hospital and h` e arm amputated. It is a singu- lar coincidence that a year ago a bro-' ther of the injured man was shot in the hand within four rods of the place where he was shot this year. That young man "returned home after his injury and subsequently died of lock- jaw. The injured` man is 27 years of age and is married. He is a nephew of Mrs. Henry Armstrong, of this place`, and has a number of friends and rela. tions in this town and vicinity. Mr. Olmstead, sr., came over as soon as he got word of the injury of his son and the wife is expected this week. It is a sad accident and greatly to be deplored. It seems that when some people get in the woods they must shoot at every- thing they see stirring no matter what it may be. `Such people ought never to go hunting.-Star' 'I`he 0.E.M. deals my fully with the matter and it is easy to see what a failure the present system has been. * Besides the injurious effect it has had on the schools it has been a source of politi- vworitism. __Sinoe the appointment at the Minister of Education now nearly -30 years ago, this unjust and injurious method hue been followed.
