FATAL FIRE.
A Woman Meets Death in the
 Flames.

A Woman Meets Death in the
 About quarter before three this morn ing an alarm was sent in from box 23. The fire was discovered by watchman Cooke of the Merchants National bank issuing from the attic windows of the build ing 20S State street, owned by Trowbridge brothers.
 The building was occupied by tene- ments. Nellie Burdick, aged about thirty years, resided in the room where the fire was discovered.
 When an entrance had been made by the Bremen they found the bed in flames and the woman thereon dead.
 She had probably suffocated before the flames had reached her. The body was considerably blackened and charred.
 A man in lower room whose name could not be learned at the late hour had a narrow escape. It required considerable effort on the part of the iremen to arouse him.
 The woman had lived in the room less than a month and was employed as a cook in the Waverly restaurant on State street.
 The fire was readily e1tinguished and the damage will not amount to more than $500. No clue to the origin of the fire.
