Ignites.
New York, July Am extraordl-
nary accident resulted yesterday in
the mortal injury of Mrs. Sylvester
J. O'Sullivan at Plainfeld, n. J.
While shopping in the dry goods
stere of Crosby & Hill she stepped
upon friction match. Instantly the
blaze ignlted her gown, and before
aid could reach her she was afiame
from head to heels.
Mrs, O'Sullive1 was dressed in a
light muslin gown. It's skirt YVES
edged with a soft and voluminous
fouacs, and in addition her pettlcoat
was heavily trimmed with soft and
delicate laces. A clerk came forward
to wait upon her. As shs turned
toward the counter an indistinct yet
Noticeable crackle caught the ears of
the clerk and he leaned over the
counter. A thin thread of smoke
curled up from the edge eff the
founce, and beneath it sudden ray
of flame streaked out.
Fire" screamed the clerk, rush
ing to the street. Mrs. O'Sullivan
fer an instant gazsd at him. Then,
with cry, she locked down at her
gown. As she bent her head the
fame climbed to the side of her
gown, leaping along the tilmy fabric
with incredible swlftness.
"Oh, OH" she screamed, II am on
fire"
The words still moved her lips
when she screamed asain-this time
in agoRy. The flames eating through
the texture of the gown, had scared
her flesh. Then she began to run
through the aislss of the store and
her clothing was nearly all burned
off her body before the flames were
extinguished. She is SO badly in
iured that she can not live.

GLORIOUS FOURTH
SpoiIt bv a Glorious Rain--The
Flower Parade the Special
Feature.
Feature.

The glorious Fourth in Butler
was overshadowed by q glorious
rain of inestimable value to the far
msrs of Bates county. While those
who had anticipated "big time at
the celebration were disappointed, it
was a very profitable disappoint-
nent. The rain began on the even
ing OF the Sd and rained with gentle
downpour ell night, and it was
threatening all day of the 4th. A
large number braved the weather,
however, and the day was given
over to pleasure and noise.
The grand trades display, advsr-
tised for 10 o'clock in the morning,
was dispensed with and the Flower
Parade was postponed until 8
O'Clock. At that time the parade
was formed at the corner of Della,
ware and Pine streets, headed by
the First Brigade band Of Mo-, it
took up it's line of march to Main,
on Main to the public square. which
they twice circled. About twenty
vehicles, all beautifully decorated,
were in line, and without doubt it
was the most beautiful display ever
exhibited in Butler.
One gentleman who witnessed the
sun flower parade in Colorado
Springs, said it was not prettier
than this. Several who saw the
flower parade in Kansas City said
that this parade equaled that in
general points and excslled it in
many particulars. 1t is impossible
in our limited space to attempt a
description of each vehicle, and we
fear such an attempt would be dis
NAL failure, as we could not do them
justice. All showed much work and
pains; the designs were beautiful.

pretty. The judges were Prof. ".

Mrs. Geo. W. Newberry and Miss

pink and white roses on a white

driven a Ia tandem.
No. 1s was two seated trap
owned by Mrs. j. D. Allen; decorat-
