A sad accident occurred last Thnrs-
day morning, at Tuscarora Mills, Up
per Darby, Delaware omnty. A poor
widow, living at the above named place,
having two small children, aged three
and four years, was in the habit Of lrav-
ing them alone while she worked in the
mill, at the loom, and would rum out
occasionally to see how they were get
ting along. This the min owners OBJ
jected to, and she did not get out from
the time the mill started in the NOM
ing until the dinner hour. Imagine
her horror on arriving home to find one
Of her little ones roasted alive. Some
time in the forenoon the child, accord
ing to the others statement, pulled some
Goals of fire out of the stove, which set
fire to its clothing; the other child See
ing the danger ran up stairs and got
into bed; the one on fire followed, and
when the mother found them, one was
in bed alive and the other lying under.
the bed burned to crisp and dead; not
morsel Of clothing was left on it ex-
c-pt its shoes and stockings. its body,
arms and face were burned black.

The communion followed, tho best and

church for many months. The mem

partook OF tho sacred emblems with
feelings of deep reverence and emotion,
mary giving expression to them with
tears, hearty thanks and "Amens !"

services OF the past week had been at

Take (nre of Your Eyes!

Those of our readers who have weak
eyes and need glasses should not fail
to call on Prof. Charles ltalie, the Will
mington optieian, at No. 2ls Market
street. We feel safe in saying that the
Professor, from his eleven years expert
ence, thoroughly understands the eyes,
and being a practical workman, he
prepares the glass to suit the failings
of the eye, and he has supplied num-
Der of our best citizens with glasses,
all of who'll speak in the highest terms
of the relief they have received from
the use of his glasses. Go and convince
yourselves.

found solely on circumstantial evidence.
