The dangers lo be apprehended from coal oil lamps have been frequently enumerated and plans of avoidance suggested. Tho following simple rules can be relied on as infallible: Al ways keep a lamp full of oil. Never nllow it to gel more lhan ball empty, asthosp.icenbove fills witii gas, which is easily ignited, espec ially If Ihe oil is not thoroughly rectified. Turn Ihe tlame down by band as Inr as you can, then give a quick, strong putt" down the chimney, instnntly extinguishing ihn small remainder of tho (lame. Never blow a full llamo down the chimney, as it may be blown into ihe gas in the lamp and cause an ex plosion. On Tuesday nlternoon last, Willio Bowers, aged about ten years, who lives near the Iron dale railroad bolow Third street was terribly burned by the explosion of a coal oil can. He had been left at home by his mother, with in structions to have the fire reudy for supper. When tho supper hour approached, the fire was low and AVillie endeavored to start n blaze by pouring conl oil from n can containing nearly half a gallon. Therew.u an instant explosion, nnd the burning oil was scattered inalldiicc- tions, i-etling fire lo tho boy's clothes. He ran out of the house with garments ablaze, and was Sivcd from death by some of tho neighbors, who wrapped a piece ol carpet about him and extinguished the Haines. The boy's body is badly burned and ono ol bis wrists is so seri ously wounded that it is feared amputation will bo necessary.
