Minor Mention of Interesting Home And County News
The News Sifted out and Separated from the Chaff—Boiled Down for the Benefit of the Dispatch Readers.

James Trainor, a boilermaker employed by Kenney & Co. of Scotdale, while standing in the fire-box of a locomotive at the Mt. Vernon ore mines, fixing the flues Saturday upset his lamp, spilling the burning fluid over his arms and breast.  He was terribly burned.
