The reference TO gasoline explosion is
in answer to the DIsPATcH's question
whether Jessie was ever in such q disaster.

Jessie" insisted that she had lived in
Independence, Kan, or Independence, Mo-,
the places seeming to be interchangeable in
her mind. II has been developed that she
Is very familiar with places in Inde-
pendence, Mo. Further, she resembles n
girl who in Independence received severe
shock in a gasoline accident. The girl
was employed in a family as n sort Of CON-
panion. On one occasion she was taking a
little child from the parlor TO the kitchen,
when a gasoline-stove IN the latter ex-
plodod. The child was badly burned and
80 was its mother. who came 10 its rescue; I;
and upon the advice of the physician of
the family the girl was dismissed. "a
her presence in the house made
the mother exceedingly nervous. 1t
will be recalled that during her
attacks of delirlum Jessie " has appeared
possessed with the idea that some building
near her was on fire.
THE DOCTOR WAS RIGHT.
DR.. Trevillian has held TO the charitable
theory regarding the girl ever since she
came into his hands, and he IS fully borne
ont from a medical point Of view by all the
revelations that have so far been
made. The girl has been visited
by a number of ladies since she
was taken 10 tho almshouse-not few of
whom are from distant parts of the State
and having known of cases somewhat
similar to this one went out TO the institu-
tion to see if they could throw any light
upon the mystery.
The DISPATCH was the first paper to
report the arrival in Richmond of the un-
fortunate woman who was picked up on
the streets one week ago last hight in a
wild and dazed condition, and since then
its readers have been made familiar with
every development in the case. No effort
has been spared TO solve the mystery, end
it now seems that the girls real name and
the principal facts in her life have been
learned.
