ACCIDENTAL SHOOTING. JUVENILE FOOLING WITIL A REVOLVE! Tho day's excitement was considerably wig- mented by 1 telegram from tho Wost ‘Twelfth Street Station at 2 o'clock that thery had Deen a shooting nffray nt the cornor of Polk and Desplaines streets, which would probably reault in tho death of a 10-year-old boy. Promptly upon recelying the information at tho 'welfth Street Station, Officers Brennan and Connelly wero sent out to investigate, At No, 17} West Polk street they found the wounded boy, but ho was nbloto bo about and tulk freely, and was apparently in no danger of dying. His name ts Fred Weiderburg. Thero was on bullet wound = In his left, cheek, and, if the lead penetrated the head to any distance, tt shattered the cheek-bono and lodged somewhere behind it. Dr. Murphy, who dressed the wound, did not deem it prudent to probe for tho bullet, and did not think ft would prove dangerous. The ttle fellow told how he had been injured, and, after bursting open tho door of n clogot nitached to John Telter’s buteb= er-shop, at No, 357 Desplalnes street, the officers found and arrested Louis Frundt, 15 yeurs of age, who neknowledged having fired the shot. At tha station he freely told whut ‘was considered n very straight story of tha oc- enrrence, About 1 nionth ago be bought 1 sinall and defectlye revolver from a boy known is: “Tom," Bay tng ih conts therefor, The weapon was in good order when he fot. It, and ho ald not handle [t to any extent until yesterday, when he wanted to clean it. Wiahing to. test it he fred avveral shots through a holu in the buteher-ahop floor, and while so engiged two or tires chitren gathered about tho door and iene in through the windowsat him. Suddenly, while the bunmer was: at half-cock, as Frundt thought, tho revolver wus discharg: Tittle Wiederbery nt once rushed into tho shop, erying and holding his hand to his check, from’ which the blood wis spurting. Frundt Piped off the blood with his: apron, find, seeing that tho wound was rather serious, he wlvised him to run hone. The shoot- ing ia, therefore, conceded to hnye been purely the result of carclesness, Frundt Iyes wit hls parents at No. 102 Johnson street, LOCAL POLITICS. AEVENTEENTH WALD IRISH REVUNTICANS.

It isone of the regrets of the season that the performances of troupe like this, possess- ing so many artists of the first class and such an effective chorus and orchestra, should be so targely confined to the lighter works, These we ean have any day very falrly done, but notworksof the herote stamp of “Alda.” The performance was the great triumph of the season thus far; not only this, but we may go so far as to say that no other per- formance of the senson, even to ils close will sequal Its and we might go still further and gay that it was one of the most pow- evful performances of opera ever heard in Chicago.
