When the doctor arrived he found that a Polish woman had been shat. out- e woman was in a nearby building, the bullet probably of ber entered a small window in buildinz and struck the woman in tie left cheek, tore out two teeth and em- bedded itself in the jawbone, whence the doctor extracted it. The bone was badly splintered, it being neces sary to remove several pieces. Had the bullet entered the neck or eye it would have been fat: A careful e amination of the building proved tl the nhullet came through the window. This Luaing is further corroborated by the fact that the hole in the woman's cheek was all and clean cut, s ing that the bullet had come in cor- tact with nothing until the woman was hit. The physician in aitendance deemed it a coincidence that a stray bullet sheuid have accidentally en- tered so small a window.
