HORRIBLY SCALDED.
A Mother Accidentally POurS Hot
Milk on an Infant Son. Who Dies
From the Effects of His Injuries.

A sixteen months old son of Thos.
Edwards, an Aetna mill ironwarker,
who lives at No. Sc Indiana street, met
death yesterday under the most dis
tressing circumstances.
The child was playing near the stove,
and was not noticed by Mrs. Edwards,
who was performing her household du-
ties. She was handling a vessel con-
tanning hot milk, when in some man
ner it was overturned, and the contents
fell on the head and body of the child.
The little fellow was scalded in a hor-
rible manner, his face and shoulders
being so swollen and burned as to make
his features scarcely recognizable.
All that medical aid could do was
brought into service, but to no avail.
The little sufferer fingered during the
remainder OF the afternoon and early
evening, and breathed his last about
half an hour before midnight The af-
ficted parents have the sympathy of a
host of friends in their sad bereave-
ment.

ing the City Marshal from collecting

passed by the last Legislature. The
restraining order has not yet been
served upon the Marshal.

EVADING PAYMENT.

ance on patients at the Hospital, be
paid. The amount was $265. This bill
was long ago recommended for payment
by The Health Committee. but Council
refused to pay It, Under the ordinance,
the Health Officer had a right to en-
plOy physician, which would have
COS. $40 or more a day. Dr. Walden,
then Health officer, agreed to do the
work for So a day, and the Health Com
mtttee agreed to thiS as the easiest way
out of the trouble. There was some
debate over the matter, Mr. Hahne be-
ing opposed to its payment, and Mr..
Britt saying lit looked like blood mon
ey." After much wrangling, during
which it came out that about half the
members thought the charge was S. a
dav. irrespective of the number OF pa
Gents. and the others thought it was 50
a day for each patient, the motion was
lost. ayes .. noes 10. Later DR.. Taylor
offered a resolution paying DR.. Walden
So a day for every day on which he had
made visits. Mr.. Hahne objected and
said he believed if there was any legal
way of getting the money out Of the
city. DR.. Walden ought to be allowed to
get it," Mr.. Britt said it was the same
old ghost" and he was opposed to 1t.
The matter was referred to Health.
