The teeth OF the Indians are seldom

HORRIBLE ACCIDENT BY POWDER
IN RUMFoRD.-On Monday week the
store of Otis G.. Bolster, in Rumford,
Maine, was blown up by a cask of pow
der being set on fire. Mr.. Bolster had
just been getting a stock of goods in
his store, and among the articles was
a cask of powder. HIS customers
had been trying the powder, and had
left some particles upon the top of the
cask. Mr. Bolster's boy, nine years
old, in order to amuse himself, and in
the absence of his father, took a coal
of Ere, and thus set the particles in a
blaze. Two other young lads were
also in the store. The whole cask of
powder Immediately ignited. Half of
the store was blown into the Andres.
coggin, and the other half into the
street, the roof tumbling down in the
middle. MIR. Bolster's boy was imme.
diately killed. One OF the other young
lads had his arm broken, and the other
was sadly burnt.-Prtland Advert.

rejected, wesuppose; for we understand
that young and old, residents and nom

on their humbug. They tried to keep
