and at his request Dr. W. d. Clarke
was quickly called. His symptoms
seemed those of opium poisoning, and

the patient TO the receiving hospital
Before the wagon came Perry was dead

An autopsy was performed, and IT
revealed only a hard clogging of the
intestines at one place. The stomach
was sent to II. L. Miller for analysis,
and the chemist, went to work. He
went through all his elaborate tests
for various poisons without finding
"a trace OF any. He did find something
unusual In the stomach, though, and
that was half teacupful OF gum pei

been In the habit of chewing gum and
then swallowing it. Marty ali gum is
paratiine mixed with some navoring
and colorin" substances, and parafIine
is an absolutely neutral body, insolubie
in anything and affected by nothing
except mechanically. The wads or
gum were exactly as when swallowed.
1t became plain that the gum, so
strangely disposed of, had accumulated
and cloGged the digestive organs. 1t
had caused some pain and finally a
sudden congestion of the lungs and
other organs which quickly proved
fatal.

A TERRIBLE EXPERIENoE.-Mrs.
Flora C. Wetzler, wife of John I. Wetz-
Ter. clerk in the Government Printing
Office, and an ex-policeman, was fatal
" burned about 2:30 o'clock Yesterday
afternoon, at her home, 81 F street,
northeast Washington. Statements
made by the neighbors, police, and FAM
ily are at variance. and lead to the sug-
gestion that the affair was not an acct
dent, but the result of family jar. AT
all events the unfortunate woman was
seen to run from her house completely
nude in the biting cold and endeavor to
open the door of neighbours house.
It was locked, and she ran back to her
own residence and found that locked
also. She then retraced her steps to
her neighbours home which she finally
entered and later emerged with sheet
or table cloth around her body. She
subsequently received treatment for
her burns, which, it is feared, are of a
fatal nature. The affair seems wrap
ped in mystery, though her husband
AYERS her clothing took fire from an oil
stove. Mrs. Wetzler died to-day from
her injuries.
