A Flash of Powder and Lard Plays Havoc
With Charles Foster and Son.
About o'clock this morning Charles FoS-
ter and his son, residing at the old toll gate
on East High street. met with terrible
misfortune. They We're fixing up prepara-
ton of lard and powder to apply on the
lame foot of a horse. They were heating
the preparation on the cooking stove, in the
kitchen, and in some manner allowed it to
get too hot. Suddenly it flashed up in a
volume of flame. dashing the burning lard
square in their faces. Mr.. Foster was ter
ribly burned. His hair, eyebrows and
lashes We're swept clean from his face, and
it was left solid blister. His son was
burned scarcely less terribly about the face
and head. Medical aid was summoned at
once, and Drs. Mclaughlin and Reynolds
repaired to the scene with all possible haste.
They found father and son suffering in ter
rible agony from the effects of the accident
The above was a somewhat exaggerated
account that came in over the telephone.
When DIR. Mclaughlin arrived he found
that both the faces were very seriously
burned and that every vestige of hair about
their faces was Singed off. but the burning
was not So terrible as at first reOOrted.
