ACID RUINS

To lose ones eyesight because he was
not familiar with the tissue destroying
qualities of muriatic acid is the ex-
perience of Joseph Isewandowski ac1
cording to a Complaint Attorneys
Kruse. Penden and Moran have filed in
the Lake Superior court.
Lewandowski worked as a. laborer
for the GrasseiIi Chemical works. 1t
was part of his duty to lift carboys
containing muriatic acid. This acid
will not injure the flesh but it destroys
the mucus membranes of the nose and
mouth and is especially dangerous to
the eyes.
Lewandowski claims that he was
carrying one of the two gallon bottles
of concentrated muriatic acid when one
of them fell from his grasp and was
broken.
The acid, according to the complaint.
splashed into his eyes and blinded one
of them The other was also injured.
He claims that there should have been
provided a more satisfactory way OF
carrying the acid and that he should
have been warned of its dangerous
| character

Especial to THE T1MEs.l

Whiting, Ind, Aug. 26.-Paul j.
Scholz. of the Scholz and Co. Hay and
Feed Store. met with an accident yes
terday, from which he sustained
broken leg, and possibly internal in
ju-ies
Mr.. Schorz was crossing the Lake
Shore tracks, at Front street The
crossing is said to be in bad shape
and caused the wagon loaded with
bales of straw, to tip over. Mr.. Scho1z
was not on the wagon at the time but
was walking side of the wagon until
the crossing as passed. AS it was, the
straw was thrown upon him and when
picked up by witnesses. was found to
have sustained a badly broken leg. and
1t is thought that he has also been
injured internally. A local physician
as summoned, who recommended that
the victim be taken to the hospital to
undergo an examination, so Mr.. Scholz
was at once removed to st. Bernard 5
hospital in Chicago, and it is hoped
that it will be found that he has not
been Injured internally.
1t is the opinion of witnesses that if
Mr.. Scholz had been on top of the
wagon. that he would have been in
stantly killed. The horse attached to
the wagon was not Injured nor did he
run away.

AUGUST
FROST THE
LATEST

That the summer season is waning
becomes apparent with the cold spell
which is now being experienced in the
Calumet region. A light frost was
noticed last night but it is not believed
that 1t has done the crops any injury in
spite of the fact that it is unreasonable.
A frost this early in the year simply
carries out the reputation that the
year 1910 has for freakish weather.
1910 is notable for unreasonable wealth
er in the following respects. Last
winter was the eoldest in years, warm
weather was experienced earlier in the
spring than in recent years, the later
spring as te rainiest in years, the sum
mer was the hottest in years and now
frosts have appeared earlier than in a
number of years
The weather report this morning is
tat cooler weather may be expected to-
day vile it will get warmer tomorrow.

Owing to the fact that the roof has

Withstand.
The work on the building is prog
