Tuesday morning last Mrs. NJ. A.
Hicks, who keeps a lodging house south
OF the railroad track. rose at her usual
hour, and heard grosns in the room occu-
pied by ". 2. Hermann. says the Flag
staff Gem. She went to his room to learn
the cause OF this unusual noise, and upon
entering, was stricken with horror at the
sight before her. Nj. Hermann was lying
upon his bed in an unconscious condition
and burned almost to death. The walls
and doors OF the room In which he had
been sleeping were scorched, the window
blind burned and also a small portion Of
the bedding. but the FIRE had been put out
In some manner.
An exploded lamp was found lying on
the floor. DR.. ID. j.. Brannen and DR..
J. r. Manning were summoned at once,
and upon examination 1t was found that
Mr.. Bermsnn's hands. feet. body and
face were burned very badly, the
flesh In places coming of In pieces. Ev-
erything that medical skill could do
was done TO give the sufferer ease.
kilograms were sent TO his family In
Oregon and 10 his brother Binger
Hermann. general land commissi ,ner
at Washington. ID. C.. informing them
OF the sad accident. Just how the
misfortune occurred IL a profound
mystery. II may be he left a lamp
burning In his room neal his bed, and II
either exploded or he might have turned
1t over by accident, and how he managed
to extinguish the 1fe, and why he gave
no alarm, cannot be- accounted for. Mr..
Her is the forest supervisor for this
section. and has many friends In Ari-
iona. He was Of mild. gentle and kind
disposition, and all who knew him liked
him. He lived until midnight on Tues
day. when death relieved him OF his suf-
ferings.
