Kingston, was burned in o shocking
manner, and died from the effects about

had kindled fire, and afterwards took
the coal oil can and began to pour oil on
the fire, when the can exploded, throw
ing the burning oil over her. Her
screams soon brought assistance, but too
late to be of any avail to her. She
fingered for couple of hours, when
death relieved her of suffering. Another
death from kindling fire. with coal oil.
1t is soon time that people should learn
the disastrous effects from IT,

of blowing out coal oil lamp, it explod-
ed, scattering oil and glass, in all
directions. Fortunately for Mrs. H. the
oil did not ignite, as her clothing and
face were full of the oil. 1t also damaged
show case and its contents.
