Had Been Left Alone in House
a Few Minutes.
While His Grandmother Went to
Call an Older Brother.
Unfortunate Victim fingered Through
Night In Terrible Suffering.

Henry S. Jackson, an orphan, years
old, died at the homo OF his grand
parents, 56S Douglass avenue, at about 10
o'clock this forenoon as the result of
burns caused by his playing with
matches.
The little fellow was the son OF the late
Gabriel and Ella Jackson and had been
tor long time tender 81 cared for by his
grandmother, Mrs. Henry Jackson.
de was a bright lad and his grandfather
and aunts ss well as his grandmother
were all devotsd 10 him.
Mrs. Jackson at about z o'clock last
evening prepared the IItt e fellow for
bed, and leaving him In the kitchen in
his night dress went TO call his brother,
who was playing with some other boys,
in order to do the same service for the
truant yourgster.
The home of the Jacksons is a pretty
cottge and like others of the houses OF
the peighobrnood is considerably above
the street levels pretty grass bank and
steps leading down 10 the street. 1t wss
10 these steps that Mrs. Jackson went
with no forewarning of the terrible
sorrow that was soon TO fall on her She
had not been gone but very short time,
when she heard the child she had left
in tbs house, screaming as if in
great terror and calling her name and for
a second she was dazed but soon recover
|. ing her senses she rushed back into the
house to find the night dress OF her
grandchild all on lire and him suffering
terribly. She extinguished the flames as
quickly as possible and at once summon
ed DR.. Thomas +. Black.
1t seems that during the very short
time she was away the little fellow had
got OH q chair, took some matches
from the mantel-piece and taking them
IN his lap had lighted some. In few
minutes his light clothing was on tire.
Nhen DIR. Black arrived he did every
thing possible to save the child's life and
to case his pain but his efforts proved
unavailing and death came at last TO end
the lad 5 sufferings.
The little fellow bore the terrible
agony that was caused by his burns In
a remarkable manner, and the last
pathetic remark he made to Or. Black,
Just before he lost consciousness at 5
O'Clock this morning was ~ will never
take grandmama's matches again."
The grand parents are nearly heart
broken over the affair for which they
were in no way to blame, and they have
the sympathy of every resident of Wan
skuck, who knows how much love and
devotion they showeyed on the bright
boy, whose father and mother had been
so early taken away.

A Bloody Row Among
Uncle Sans Soldiers.
They Were All Drunk and
Nearly Wrecked a Car.
Chicago Police Called on But Ser
vices Were Not Needed.

CHICAGO, ILL.,, Aug. II. "A number of
army recruits from Columbus barracks,
Ohio, bound to various posts in the West,
made things lively yesterday afternoon
on the fast Pennsylvania express which
arrived in Chicago in the evening. Near
ly all of the men were drunk and they
fought all the time. Private Hayes, who
is destined to be an ornament to
the Fourth Cavalry, procured
knife and attempted to carve
his comrades. 1t was taken from him,
but he obtained another knife and re-
newed lhe attempt. This knife was also
taken from him, as was also a third,
which he managed to procure. After be
ing well pounded Hayes subsided.
The rest o. the recruits began to fight
among themselves. During this round
Charles Charleton of the Fourth Cavalry
was kicked in the abdomen and badly
hurt. Private Karpp received broken
thumb and Private Holt was given a
lacerated scalp. 1be windows in the car
were smashed, the water cooler was de-
molished and the cushions of the car were
torn up, thrown on the floor or pitched
out OF the window. There were 20 men in
the muss and the train hands were
utterly unable To keep the recruits quiet.
At Valparaiso, Ind, the train was
stopped and message sent toChicago saying
that the train was loaded down with a
full-sized riot and asking for police as
sistance. Lieutenant Preston was sent
to the depot with q detachment OF
police but the soldiers had fought
so much among themselves that they
had no heart for fighting any
body else and the police had no trouble
with them. The recruits wsr1 divided
into small squads here aud went by diff
erent railroads TO the various posts to
which they were consigned. All OF the
men were badly pounded, and the car
In which they came looked as though
a cyclone had been penncd up init.

The slight mishap to the young men
has not damped the popularity OF the
chutes at Crescent Park and Rocky
Point even a little bit, and they con-
tinue to be the source of innocent and
invigorating amusement TO thousands OF
pleasure-seekers. One popularity of tine
business at the chutes Is familiar faces.
There is SO much fun in the pastime that
those who experience its peculiar sensa-
tiop try it over and over again. 1t looks
a trifio risky, but 1t is as harmless ms an

to q close and these who miss a slide on
the chutes miss cor iderable.
