POWDER AccIDENT.-There was an acct
dent on the ledge near Mr.. Sabine's, on the
Montpelier and Wells River Railroad on Fri
day morning, by which a young man by the
name of Varney was severely burned and
two others by the names of Cain and Savage
were less injured. Varney turned powder
from a can into a seam which had been made
by a recent g blast - and which ignited after
the manner of powder when it comes in con-
tact with fire, and the result was as above
stated. The fire communicated with the
powder in the can which is supposed to have
all been burned as it has not been seen since,
and the can is somewhere on the " retired
list" Yarney is an experienced and sue
cessful worker among the rocks, and no
doubt felt confident that there was no fire re-
naming in the {" seam > when he turned in
the powder.
