4 SINGULAR CASE
Under Norfolk Police Investigations
Badly Burned.

NORFOLK, VA, March 1.-(Speclal)-
\ peculiar case has heen brought to
light in this city in the past two days. 1t
is an attempt to lure a girl to this city,
with no object which is apparent on the
surface The victim Of this singular state
Of affairs Is Miss Jennie Pabworth, of
Cleveland, o., who gave up, according TO
her story a good position as music
teacher in New York city 10 accept
similar situation in the "Heston Female
Seminary" which was described as being
located on the outskirts of this city
about one and one-half miles from Berk-
ley There is, needless TO say, no such in
sttutiOn, so far as can be learned, in eX-
istencc Yet its advertisement for
music teacher appeared in a New YORK
paper. and when Miss Pabworth answer
ed she was offered situation at $3.50 per
year, which she accepted. Discovering
how cruelty she had been duped, she call
cd in the Chief of Police, but nothing has
yet been accomplished in ferreting out
the perpetrator of such hoax.
An entire family was badly burned late
last night by the explosion Of lamp IN
the residence of Frank Santos, corner
Butte and Smith streets. But for the time
Is arrival of the Fire Department tatali-
ties would probably have resulted, and,
as il is the eldest son lies at St Vim
cents Hospital, suffering from terrible
burns about the face and head, while his
mother and father are being treated for
