TERRIBLE WOUNDS INFLICTED
SYDNEY, August 31.
Three small boys were playing with a loaded revolver at Randwick to-day when the weapon was accidentally discharged. A bullet entered the head of John Enemy, aged eight, and he is now in a critical condition.
A neighbour, Police-Sergeant Saunders, attempted to ■ render assistance, when a pet "old man" kangaroo attacked him. It inflicted terrible wounds on his head and chest and ripped most of his clothing off.
