Boiler Buriti
The threshing engine of C. H. Assel
stine, of Hamilton blew up on Tuesday
afternoon at 2 o'clock. Both ends of the
boiler went out at once. At the fire box
the engineer, firemau and Arthur Assel
stine were standing within a few feet of
the boiler and each other. Apart of the
fire box went between them and flew 40
feet away, but did not strike either of
them. Young Asselstine, however, was
badly burned by steam about the face
and there is fear that he may lose his eye
sight. No other person was injured. A
horse was struck by one of the flying
pieces of iron and his legs broken, so he
had to be shot. The accident was re
markable in that so little harm was done
by an explosion like this occurring
among a crew ol threshermen, with no
fatalities and probably no serious injury.
The cause of the explosion is unknown.
Mr. J. D. Winlaw, of this city, who was
on his way to the machine to get its ser
vices for threshing in another place, was
within a few rods and iooking at it when
it exploded.
