A NIGHT ALARM.
Trudcn Putte Has an Exciting Expert
ence.

Truden Putte, young Belgian
employed in the saloon of +. Van
Hecke, Fourth street and Fourth
avenue. had an experience on
Saturday night which he will
not soon forget, and his narrow
escape from worse fate was indeed
lucky. Van Hccke runs in connec-
ton with his saloon business a sum
mer garden, which is lighted by
means OF gasoline lamps. The gas
oline is kept in the cellar, and on
Saturday evening about II o'clock
Putte went into the cellar after some
gasoline with which to replenish the
lamps. He had already drawn the
gasoline and had lit match for the
purpose of finding his way out of the
cellar, when the vessel of gasoline
ignited and exploded. The burning
oil fell on Putte, and the young man d.,
terror stricken, ran from the cellar
through the saloon ard into the
streets. William Kaiser saw the
poor fellow running, and grabbing
him, he threw him to the ground
and tore the burning garments from
his body. DR.. Sala was summoned,
and upon examination found tina,
his injuries, though serious, were
not fatal, and consisted of bad burn
on the left arm from the shoulder
down, and bad burns about the lief,
leg and thigh.
The Fire Department Called.
Some person had seen the smoke
from the gasoline and called out the
fire department, whose services were
not at all necessary.
