Child Burned by Acid.

The eighteen-months-old son of Jefferson
d. Newton, superintendent of the Anacos-
tia division of the Washington Traction
Company, who lives at 430 Jackson street
Anacostia, was last evening seriously
burned about the throat, mouth and lower
limbs by the spilling Of a quantity of car
bolic acid from a bottle The child went
to a closet and picked up the bottle which
contained the acid. He placed it to his
lips and some of the contents ran out upon
his person, producing very painful Inju.
ries. 1t was at first thought the child had
swallowed some of the poison, but that is
now regarded as doubtful. After treat
ment by a physician Mr.. Newton conveyed
the child to Providence Hospital, where
more antidotes were given. The little one
is now doing well.
