Fatally Burued +.

Last Saturday, about noon, as boy
namei Kane was engaged in filling the
gasoline street lamps over Eleventh
street bridge, he was approached by a
crowd Of boys who requested him to
give them soms of the oil. At first he
refused, but 40 some of the older boys
threatened to stone him II he did not
acceie to their demands, he finally
poured about Pint In an old tin can
for them. The boys then gathered a
quantity Of brush wood, on which they
poured the oil and applied match,
and in an instant the fl ames shot high
In the air. Among the boys wac one
named Joe Fundin, the 9-year-old son
of Oscar Fundin, q Swede, employ ed as
a cabinet maker by the J Jacks On & Sharp
Company.
When the bonfire was GIFTED, young
Fundin was standing on a bank near
where the wood was piled, and as the
flames spread far above his head and
roared and cracked 1t Is supposed he
became frightened, as he fell into the
hel ce flames. He was Immediately pull
ed out, and his clothing, which was
ablaze, extinauisbed by bystander
who, with great presence Of mind pulled
off his coat and wrepped 1t around the
boy. He was immed lately taken to his
fathers residence, 1l24 Heald street, and
messengers dispatched for his parents,
his father being at work, and the mother
at market. DIR. Blocksom was also
summoned, and upon making an exani-
nation found that the child was terribly
burned, the flesh on his arms and breast
and across his stomach being almost
roasted.
The physician also thought that he
had inhaled the flames, and told his
agonizsd parents that there was nc
hope whatever of his recovery. He
