ALCOHOL LAMP EXPLODED.
Herman Kuhn Fatally and His Wife
Seriously Burned.

Monroe. La. The people Of Mon
roe were greatly shocked Sunday
morning when it became known that
Mr.. Herman Kuhn had died during
the night from burns received at HE
residence on Saturday morning.
When the accident by which Mr..
Kuhn was injured was reported, o
fatal termination was by no means
expected. The deceased was one Of
the most popular and enterprisine
citizens Of Monroe and additional
sadness is lent to his death from the
fact that Mrs. Kuhn, who was burned
about the arms In her efforts to ex-
tinguish the flames which enveloped
her husband, Is In o serious condition
from shock and grief.
Saturday morning while Mr.. Kuhn
was lighting an alcohol lamp, over
which it was his custom to make e
cup of coffee before going down
town, 1t exploded. Mr.. Kuhn was in
his night dress and In a moment II
was in flames His wife bravely tried
to extinguish them with the bed
clothes, but unsuocessfully, and he
jumped into the bath tub. The entire
front Of his body was terribly
burned. Two physicians were soon
with him. He died Sunday morning
st / 80 O'Clock. The funeral took
place Monday morning from the
family residence and was largely at.
tended. The interment was in the
Jewish cemetery. The services were
conducted by Rabbi Hinberg Of Tenn.
pie Sinai and by Adassa No. 2s, L O..

dent.
Mr.. Kuhn was born thirty-fouI
years ago in Ksrlstadt Bhein- -Baiersn,

 FROM ASYLUM
MAN ARRESTED HERE FOR STEAL ING PLUMBING LOWERS HIM. SELF BY SHEET LADDER FROM THIRD STORY.

The Sheriffs office was notified yes- terday that James K. Dickey had escap- ed from the Alabama Insane Hospita al at Tuscaloosa, where he was sent sever al weeks ago from Jefferson County. He made his escape by taking out the win dow of his room and lowering himself to the ground by sheets tied together.

PRODUCE MARKET.
Sharp Advance In Lemons and Decline
 In Lines.

During the week there has been a sharp advance in the price of lemons and a decline in the price of lines. Lem- ons are quoted at $4Q4.5o per crate. and lmes are $1 .5o per hundred, and within the next three weeks Hines are expected to go as low as 75 cents per hundred.
 Birmingham during the warm weather Is consuming an immense quantity of both fruits. Wholesale dealers say that 2OO0 lines and 50 cases or more than 15,OoO lemons are being used daily. The lime Is getting more popular every sea- son, both because of its cheapness and the healthfulness of beverages made from it. Last season there were not half as many Hines used as have already been consumed In this district this summer.
 Up to the present time, all lines used have come from the island of Jamaica via New York. But on the twelfth Of this month, the first two barrels of Florida lines were sold. and beginning next week all that the market can consume will make them so much lower in price.
 The first crop of lemons is about ex- hausted and they will be higher until mid August, when the second crop comes on.
 Canteloupes are going down and the Georgia product Is expected next week. which will make them still lower. Many varieties of peaches, plums and pears have been arriving every day this week.
