j. II. Rawson met with quite serious
accident last Monday. He was in his
field blowing out woodchuck holes,
which is done by stopping up one end OF
the burrow and exploding charge OF
powder in the other end. Either the
conclusion or the gases usually kill the
animal. In one hole Mr.. Rawson evil
IDENTIFY had a shorter fuse than he sup
posed, as the charge went off unexpect-
edly in his face. He was severely burn
ed, and dirt and powder were blown into
his face and eyes. His injuries were at
tended to as we'll as possible, the burns
dressed and the powder picked out. He
is now doing well, the swelling is going
down, and he bids fair to preserve his
sight fully, regarding which there was at
first some apprehension.
