Opened Powder Cans With a Spike.

John Hickman, who formerly
worked for the Steel Corporation at
the Adams-Spruce mine at Eveleth,
has sued the big corporation for
$4,000 for injuries sustained by the
explosion of a can of powder which
he was opening with a steel spike.
Hickman holds that he had done
this act many times, and that the
company is to blame for his misfor-
