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.
