A Serious Accident.
s.
m
Serious Accident occured last
Saturday to one of our friend
J as Groover’s little boys while
playing near Mr. Groover’s dwell
ing. They were playing running
an engine, they had built a fur
nace and put a can of water on it,
air tight, and put fire under the
can and when the water became
heated the can exploded. The
hot watter flew out onto the boy’s
leggs and scalded them badly. He
is being treated by Dr. F. C
Kicinuds. We hope lie will soon
be well.
It wmild be enough
would not tamper with
that character as they do not
know the danger in explosions.
The Woild’s (food Item is.
Frequently we see evidences of
nobility of character which re
kindled our failing faith in hu
manity.
The New York World tells in
these apt words two such illustra
tions that were given on the same
day recently:
“Edward F. Corrigan was pushed
headlong from a wagon and killed
by a fe.low student at Yale, Henry
M. Sedley. Though it is not
charged that Sedley intended to
kill, it is admitted that lie was
guilty of reckless roughness which
cost Corrigan his life. But Cor
rigan’s mother the keenest suffer
from the‘accident,’if so it may
be classed, earnestly pleads that
Sedley, who is under arrest, shall
not be prosecuted.
On the same day Louis A Prea
eger was arraigned in this city
cliarged with having robbed his
employers, Sidenburg – Co. His
wife, his three children and his
aged mother al; appeared and
tearfully pleaded that he be al
lowed another chance. He was
they said a devoted husband and
father and all he had stolen had
been given to them. And Mr,
Sidenhurg, bead of the firm, said :
I withdraw the charge I am an
(J id man and could not have it on
m y concience that I hud deprived
this aged woman of her son or
this wife and her children of their
support,
‘‘Two unique examples of the
ff U!l hty of mercy-”
The world is i ot half as bgd as
Bome P 8 °P le wouItl have us believe
and it is not going to the bow—
wows bv a good deal.
