ITALIANS TERRIBLY INJURED
Two of Them Have Both Eyes
Entirely Destroyed.
ONE ALSO LOSES BOTH HANDS
Another Had an Arm Mangled
and Amputated.
In Addition, His Eyes Were Badly In
jured--The Other sightiess Man Also
Loses an ARM FrlEhtful Result of n
Premature Explosion in n Quarry.

Three Italians in the employ of Con-
tractor David Cornell, at the Wooddale
quarries, on the Landenberg division of
the B. s. @. railroad, were horribly
mutilated, Thursday, by premature
explosion.
The victims are Domenico Natalie,
John Luciano and John Reeda. They
were brought to the Delaware Hospital,
where their wounds were immediately
attended to by DIR. John Palmer, who
was assisted by DIR. James Walker.
II was found necessary to amputate
the arms of Luciano between the
shoulder and elbow. His eyes are also
badly injured. Natalie has had both
hands amputated and he has lost the
sight of both his eyes. His skull also is
fractured. Reeda's right arm had to be
amputated between the shoulder and
elbow. His left arm is fractured but he
will not lose the use of it. Both his
eyes were also destroyed. All the men
are unmarried.
At the moment of the accident the
men were engaged drilling out an I'M
exploded blast. Light charges Of pow
der had been placed in the cavities nre-
paratory to the insertion of the heavier
blasts for the removal of the masses of
granite. The men had neglected to
make use Of the usual precautions of
dampening the cavity with water.
Luciano held the drill while the others
drove the sledges. The powder sud
denly exploded. Natalie was thrown
against an adjacent rock. Luciano was
hurled against the quarry rock and
Reeda was sent flying off with terrific
force. ...
The unfortunate men were picked up,
apparently in dying condition. As
quickly as possible wagon was OBJ
tanned and they were brought to the
hospital. The poor fellows were found
to be in a terribly mangled condition.
The hospital physician, however, had
made all preparations.
There are good chances of recovery,
although two of the injured men will
be MANNED for life. They have received
the best of treatment at the hands of
the hospital authorities.

II have found it imperative to have sure
and simple remedies on hand in ease of
cuts, bruises, strains, sprains, colds, rheuma-
tism, &c. Shortly after entering upon my
profession, discovered such remedy in
Allcock's Porous Plasters. / tried other
plasters, but found them too harsh and
irritating. Allcock's Porous Plasters give
almost Instantaneous relief and their
strengthening power is remarkable. In
cases of weak back put two plasters on the
small of the back and in short time you
will be capable of quite severe exercise. In
sprint and distance races and jumping
the muscles or tendons in the legs and
feet sometimes weaken. This can in
yariably be relieved by cutting the plaster
in narrow strips, so as to give free motion,

Must Not Tie Fowls Legs.

Clerk of the Market Seth Feaster has
announced his intention of making war
on the common practice of market peo-
pie Of tying fowls legs. file thinks it
cruel and plenty of people agree with
him. But it is very common practice.
1t is common sight also to see bunch
OF fowls lying down beneath farmers
wagon on King street fastened lii this
manner, and one or two of the birds
picking around as unconcernedly as if
this species of manacllng did not hurt
them in the slightest. Occasionally
too, an enterprising happy hearted
young rooster will crow Justify
despite his chains and slavery. Pos
sibly the fowls are so accustomed,
hereditarily, to the practice, that they
take to it as mutually as the horse does
to the hard iron sheathing nailed to his
feet. However, it is claimed by the
kindly-disposed clerk of the market that
he has law for what he proposes doing.
