George B. Deal, manage r of the Atlantic and Pacific tea store, at Division and Clinton streets. Amsterdam, 13 confined to his home, 60 Arnold- avenue , with severe injuries to his eyes, as the result of a peculiar accident which occurred in the store recently. Mr. Deal was closing business for the day and was opening a can of chloride of lime to pour into the sink before he went home. The cover was one of the indented kind that fits tightly into the can, and is pried off. Mr. Deal was lifting it in the usual manner of applying leverage with a knife blade, when the entire contents of the can flew into his face. For some reason unexplainable the stuff had exploded. The cover was far enough off so that the force did not shatter the tin of the container, but simply lifted the contents directly upwards with great force. Bewildered, blinded and in great pain, Mr. Deal was nevertheless able to walk to the city hospital, which is but a short place for his place of business. The injuries were found to be entirely to the eyes, which will be kept bandaged for some time, although the physician states that vision will not be lost and that in all probability the sight will eventually be restored to normal.
