THE OLD, OLD STORY.

Another Horrible Death Due to the
Kerosene Can.
The heedlessness of domestics in refusing
to take warning from the horrible deaths
that have occurred through the use of oil on
fire, had frightful exemplification in this
city. Marie Butler, a servant employed at
the residence of Nj. o. B. Baker, 1925 1
street, was burned to death in frightful
manner through this very carelessness.
She has been using large oil-stove to get
the meals on during this summer and one
afternoon about o'clock she, as usual,
went to work preparing them. The gas
stove did not burn very we'll and the woman,
seeing that the reservoirs were rather low,
got the can md started to repenish them
without putting the fire out. While she was
thus engaged an explosion took place and
so great was the shock that the can was
Knocked out of her hand and blown
out into the pantry way The oil flew
all over her, igniting her thin dress, and she
screamed and rushed up the stairway,
where the family were assembled badly
soaring them, and continued her frantic
flight through the aror and up the halls
until she reached the third story. There in
In a rear back room she fell exhausted,
writing In her agony. Passers-by hearing
the screams, rushed into the house and
proffered assistance. Mr. Howard Clagett,
the clerk of the Police Court, selling a
blanket and wrapping the suffering woman
in 1t, soon subdued the flames Her condi-
ton was sickening to look at. The greater
portion Of her body and almost the entire
face was burned away to charred mass of
reeking fish, from which the blood was
oozing. DR.. Bussey, whose residence is
near by, responded to the call for medical
aid and did all that was possible to relieve
the woman in her distress. Though suffer-
ing excruciating PAIN she was conscious.
Seeing the utter helplessness Of the case, he
ordered her conveyed to an hospital at
once. When she reached there she was
still alive, but after about half an hour
death came aud released her from her in
tense suffering.-Was hington Herald.
