The most serious holiday accident
occurred on Tuesday evening, the
victim being Rainey Smith, the little
son Of the late M. r. Smith. Another
little boy had put off Roman candle,
which appeared to die out before all
the balls were discharged. Young
Smith was near by, and during some
what needless examination Of the sup
posedly burned out firework, another
ball was discharged. It struck young
Smith in the face and burned both eyes
so badly as to lead to the belief that
he might loose his sight. There is now
reason to hope that he will escape per-
manent injury.
