SHOT STRIKES MAN IN HEAD—MAY LIVE

Wyndmere, N.D., Feb 16.—While standing before a mirror combing his hair, Ed Able, an employee on the Case farm two miles southeast of McLeon {sp}, was accidentally shot in the head with an old rusty pistol in the hands of a four-year-old son of his employer. The bullet struck Able just below the right year and penetrated the head. It is believed that he will recover unless complications should set in.
