A PAINFUL INJURY,
(Per* Press Association. 1 ) Thames, last night. Mr Wright, electrical instructor of the School of Mines, who received injuries to his hand while working X-rays, has been granted six months’ leave of absence on full pay to enable him to proceed to Eogland to have the injuries treated by experts. The peculiar gradations of the injury are most perplexing. Apparent recovory was succeeded by painful and distressing symptoms. To avoid the danger of a development similar to that which occurred to an assist int at Edison’s laboratory, where amputation was followed by amputation, the Council of the School of Mines,’with tho consent of tho Minos Department, decided to take the step indicated. It is boliovod to be the first oase of the kind in Australasia. )
