Last Thursday evening, about % O'Clock,
Mrs. Jos. King, residing at the I" Hook" in
this city, was so badly burned by the explos-
ion of the kerosene lamp that death ensued
at about four O'Clock the next day. At the
time of the accident she had just taken lamp
from the table for the purpose of going up
stairs. As soon as the lamp exploded, her
clothing took fire, and she ran into the street.
Blankets we're thrown around her and the
flame put out but not before she was horribly
injured. more than two-thirds of her body be
ing burned over. Her husband was absent
from home at the time. She leaves young
child. Her funeral took place from st. John
(R. co. Church on Sunday afternoon.
This accident is another warning to persons
to be careful in the handling of kerosene
lamps. The accident was caused, probably,
by the formation of gas within partly empty
lamp the sudden upward motion of the
hand in taking the lamp from the table, or
else the opening of the door going up stairs,
driving the flame down the wick and expod-
Ing the gas. Buy only the best oil /; do not
burn lamps when nearly empty /; never lift
them up suddenly or let strong draft of air
blow on them, nor blow down the chimney to
put the light out, and never fill them while
lighted or with lighted lamp near by, and
accidents will be very infrequent.

On last Saturday morning, serious acct
dent occurred to Michael Hoover, an upholst-
erer working at the Penna. r. r. Shops in

box to upholster. In this box was a tin box
containing six torpedoes which are used for
signals on railroad tracks. lie took the box
in his hand and with screw driver struck
the lin lid to force it off. This exploded the
torpedoes and his right hand was very severe
ly lacerated, the palm being badly torn. A
small wound was also received in one of his
legs. 1t is hoped that the hand may be saved,

cratic obituaries HUnterdon Democrat.
Yes. We've already done so, and we find
that the sun represents the Republican party
giving life and light, while the moon ian old

ocratie party, shining with the borrowed light
of the Democratic party of thirty years ago.
Occasionally the moon eclipses the sun. but
when it does, people see what black old hulk
it is of itself. Our essay would be incomplete
without some poetry, so we quote

BOARD OF FREEHoLDERs The Board of
Chosen Freeholders held their quarterly
meeting at Pennington on Tuesday The re-
port Of the Committee on County Poor House
and Farm was received, and the project in
definitely postponed by vote of II to 6.
At meeting of the Board on the 2ist of
of September the following was adopted
Whereas, The County is already burdened
with heavy taxes, it is proper TO economize in
our expenditures so as to tighten the burden
of taxes ON our people; therefre,
Resoteed, That in the opinion of this Board
it is not necessary to employ any counsel to
assist the Prosecutor of the Pleas in the pros
ecution of Peterson (who is indicted to be
tried for murder in this county,, and that the
Clerk OF the Board respectfully inform the
said Prosecutor and the Chief Justice of the
passage of this resolution.
The following reply of the Chief Justice
was laid before the Board on Tuesday:
TRENTON, Sept. 25, 1878.
Dear SIR: | have received a copy of the
resolution of the Board of Chosen Freeholders
of Hunterdon County, relative to the calling
in of the Attorney General in the trial of Pc
terson, who stands indicted for the crime OF
murder. ~Nn Un aM
You will please say to the Board that be-
fore the receipt of their resolution had al
ready requested the Attorney General to at
tend officially to this matter. 1t is usual to
have the assistance of the law officer of the
State in such important trials. The statute
relative to their procedure does not make the
expense to the county consideration in the
judicial action which it authorizes. If the
Justice of the Supreme Court is Of opinion
that the attendance of the Attorney General
is called for it is the duty of SAID Justice to
call for his assistance. Deemng it my duty
t. request the Attorney General to aid in the
s,lial, have done so. Yours, &C.,
NJ. BEAsLEY.
J. q. REEVES, Esq, Clerk.
BY the above, it will be seen that the Chief
Justice don't consider the expense has any
thing to do with engaging lawyers for the
county. One of sufficient ability could have
been engaged at one fourth the expense of the
Attorney General.
