occurred within short time Of each
other at the Lambertvile spoke works
last Wednesday morning. One of
them almost resulted fatally. A little
past belt slipped off the shaft in
the saw house, and George Cooper,
young man working there, went to
replace it. The sleeve of his shirt
caught in the belt aud he was thrown
off his feet and drawn into the shaft.
An Italian workman close by heard
his screams, and, Selling hold of him,
managed by great strength to hold
him while the revolving shaft tore ali
of his upper clothing from his body,
when Cooper fell, half fainting, to
the floor. His right ear was almost
torn off and his head severely LAGER
ated, but no bones were broken. At
ter medical attendance he was remov-
ed to his home.

too close to circular saw and had
the first two fingers of the right hand
sawed part of the way through. 1t is
not thought that they will need am
putating. During the morning,
George Cook had his left hand pain
fully cut bya large knife, and John
Rocks received mashed finger.
