A Girl Sots Her Ciothes on pir. with
Suicidal Intent.
M1DDLETowN, o., Dec. 1.-Monday
night the fire department was called
out to extinguish fire at Blanche
Grey's resort, on North Broad. An ill.,
mate of the place, known as Goldie
Stone, but whose renl name is Retta
Stern. was the victim. The girl was
standing in front of an open CRATE in
front room of the Grey mansion, when
she suddenly announced to those
around her that she was going to kill
herself, and that she hoped she would
die quickly. She then deliberately
stuck her dress, thin black gauze af-
fair, into the flames. In an instant the
fire enveloped her. The other inmates
of the place were horror-stricken,
and made no effort to aid her until
Samuel Hinkle, who was near by, rush
ed in and tried to stop the flames with
n blanket he succeeded finally in do
ing it, but his left hand was terribly
burned in the effort. The girl was car
ried to n bed and Drs. Murray and
Bundy summoned
An examination revealed the fact that
she was injured beyond any possible
hope of recovery, and her death will
probably occur before morning. Her
arms and breast were burned until the
flesh dropped off in pieces when she
was moved. Almost every portion of
her body was touched by the flames.
When the girl realized that she must
die the scene was heartrending one.
She called all those present to her bed
side, gave her few earthly belongings
to them, and then babe them all good
by. The girl is daughter of David
Stern, a laborer, who resides in this
city. She is n particularly fine looking
girl, aged about "a, and has been here
for two years.

John R. McLean'S
Great Newspaper.

Without single exception, there
is beyond doubt no greater or more
popular newspaper in the United
States than the Cincinnati Enquirer
or more successful publisher than
its proprietor, Mr.. John r. Mclean.
The old-time prices for the Daily
Enquirer have been maintained, and
its circulation largely increased each
year; hard times and cheaper jour-
nails failing to arrest its onward march
and high appreciation of the public
for its true worth and merit.
The Weekly Enquirer at beginning
of the campaign year was offered at
50 cents a year, and its circulation
increased by the addition of over
200, 600 new subscribers; the most
substantial and coveted testimonial a
publisher could desire.
When asked for the secret of such
success, Mr.. Mclean frankly answers:
The Enquirer has no opinions to force
upon its patrons, it simply prints the
facts and tells the truth that the reader
may form his own opinions. By
maintaining the price of the paper,
more news and greater variety can be
furnished, and every class of business
interests catered to, which a cheaper
journal cannot afford.
The very liberal support given the
Enquirer by the public at large, makes
1t incumbent upon the management
to serve it faithfully with zeal and en-
terprise in minor matters as well as
those Of greater magnitude.
