A GASOLINE LAxr HORROR.
rx.ch,iar.r r.,,,h,v pu,,.a,


The alarm Of IRE from bex No. 1s, at quarter
before seven o'clock last night, was in conse-
quence OF the upsetting Of gasoline lamp in the
house No. 10 Portland street, occupied on the
upper hoors BY Conrad ReInhold. Annie, thir-
teen years old, and Christina, six years old. both
daughters Of Mr.. Reinhold, were burned BY the
blazing oil that was scattered over their clothing
Mrs. Reinhold, mother Of the girls, was shock.
ingly burned about the arms and neck. The
family, consisting Of the fathsr. mother and I'VE
children, were gathered around the table at
supper. Mr.. Reinhold had an infant three
months old on his knee and was singing. Mrs.
Reinhold took the lighted lamp, filled with gaso-
line, from the mantel and proceeded to place It
on the table, 90 ss to give more light.
While thus engaged either Of two things hap
pened to Mrs. Reinhold, but, ewing to the excite
she is not certain which. Either the flame OF the
lamp flashed up, as often happens when lamps
are held in an Inclined position, and Mrs; Rein
or else It was not evenly balanced on the table
when she took her hand away, and in conse.
derS over on the floor. and n moment the tSble
seemed encircled by fire. The first thing OBJ
served by Mrs. Reinhold after the lamp fell was
and the flames were wrapping her face and body,
Mr.. Reinhold removed the infant to o place Of
safety, and went TO the rescue OF the other chill
dren. The noise attracted the attention Of the
police and neighbors. Policeman Wirtz was the
hrst to eaten Annie, the worst burned child and
wrap 0er In DlankeLe. Lnub BLlulnE the names. IN
Q very short space Of time the salvage corps and
hremen arrived, and the burning floor and car
pets were flooded with water. Mrs. Reinhold had
both her arms and hands burned. Annie was
singed to crisp from head TO foot, and Christina
Is burned about the arms, legs and back. Drs.
WomDle and Buddenbohn, who attended, do not
think thst Annie can possibly recover, and Ohris.
tina's case Is critical.
1t was a painful scene that the reporter wit
messed on visiting the house q few minutes after
the occurrence. The little girl Annie, surrounded
by attendants, lay on o bed wrapped from head to
loot In cotton soaked in linseed oil. She was
tossing in what appeared death-like agony, and
and sobbed her mothers name at frequent inter
walls. The mother stood by the bedside with beth
her arms extended, entirely helpless. All the
tesk was burnt from both her arms, and her
agony must have been intense. She would not
let any one leave the child to help her, and when
asked how she could Withstand The pain in her
arms she said, alt is nothing; 1t Is my heart that
is breaking as / look at my child" The other
burned child had been taken stairs, out Of the
mothers sight. Lieutenant Farnan and Ser
geauts Dull and Hsuse rendered kreat assistance
to the afflicted family.-Bah. Sun, Dec. 30.

Coal.Qil Lamps.

To the Editor Of the National RepHblicaa:
SIR: read your interesting article as to the
use OF coal OIL and glass vs. metal lamps. In q
word, the only accident ever witnessed was from
the knocking over and breaking Of . glass lamp.
And while I am willing to admit that between
the glass or metal lamp, consisting Of but one
swell" for oil and wick, the glass is prefersoie,
yet I pronounce such an article as unfit for its
purposes any place. have used glass and metal
lamps for years, and defy the record Of an acci-
dent to be produced where q metal lamp was used,
having an independent "welP' tor the wick.
whether the lamp uas thrown down, suddenly
tossed upward, or even by blowing down the
chimney with full blaze turoed on. You can with
Esfety blow across the chimney OF an oil lamp and
promptly extinguish It. The cupidity Of dealers
in furnishing owtest oils is the main cause OF 40
c:dents, and, added to the culpabe ignorance evi-
denced by the hlling OF lighted lamps, using ker-
osene to start fires with and In falling Il turo
down the wick before passing from one 70, -
another with q lighted lamp furnishes you ). b, :
rible item almost daily. But the idea thu Q
glass lamp is safer than properly-construe d
metal one, such as is easily obtained in this y,
is worthy only the brain Of q croekery dealer.
