Two little sons of our editor
Lyman and Singleton-were demon
strating the expansive force of steam
on Wednesday last, using a tin pow
der keg as boiler, and with q
view of getting on full head of
steam stopped up the safety-VaIve, in
tending, of course, to open it, but made
miscalculation as to the capacity of
the boiler, and as a natural eonse-
quence an explosion took place. Two
boys badly frightened, severely but not
seriously scalded, and with enlarged
ideas on the expansive force of steam,
is the result.
