in Play and it ExplodedCharles City, Iowa, Feb. 1.— The striking of a gun, standing in a corner, by the four-year-old son of James Ball, living between Osage and Stacyville, instantly killed his one-year-old sister.
The two children were playing together when the accident occurred and death was so sudden that the smile was still on the girl's face when picked up.
