Powder Burnt.

George Leavitt met with a serious accident last Sunday near Freshwater lake. While out shooting a cartridge exploded, the powder burning the upper part of his face in a frightful manner. Both his eyes were seriously injured, the right eye, Dr. O'Donnell thinks, being destroyed. Mr. Levitt {sp} has gone to St. Paul for treatment by an occulist.
