a Dangerous Experiment

The workmen engaged in making the
excavation for the foundation of Mr..
Fraziers new binding adjoining the OPP
era house have evidently had little ex-
perience in the use of powder. On last
Monday they put in considerable blast,
and for the purpose of holding it down, y
as they termed it, piled large stones im-
mediately above. When the explosion
occurred these stones were hurled in ev-
cry direction, doing considerable injury
to the walls of the adjoining buildings.
Our advice to these people would be to
sit down on a blast, if they want to 'hold
it down.
