A Sad Incident.

Esther Walther, the two-year-old
daughter of John and Maggie Walther,
of 23O7 Benton street, St. Louis, was
killed while at play in the yard in the
rear of the Walther home. The little
one and her two brothers, Oscar and
Oliver, who are four or five years older
than she, were playing hide-and-seek,
and Esther got into a large bath tub
which was standing on one end in one
corner of theyard. There she remained
for several minutes while one of her
brothers was seeking her. When he
finally found her hiding place he
started for goal, and the little
girl tried to follow, but as
size stepped out the huge frame
of wood and zinc tumbled over and
caught her. An elder sister lifted the
heavy tub from the child and carried
her into the house. DIR. Schade was
sent for, and responded at once, but
when he reached the house he found
the little one was dead. Death, he said,
had been instantaneous, as the child's
skull had been fractured and its neck
broken.
