Ought not to mean growing weak and
feeble. It does not mean weakness or
feebleness for those who eat with good
appetite and sound digestion. 1t is OF
the utmost importance that old people
should retain the power to digest and
assiniilate food which is the sole source
OF physical strength. When age brings
feebleness it is generally because of the
failure to assimilate the nutrition con-
tanned in food.

THE DEADLY OIL CAN
Caused the Death of a Young
Woman at Montana.
Took the Can TO Kindle the Fire and
an Explosion Follows-All Efforts to
save HER Life Prove FutiIe-Death
Comes in most Horrible Form.

Miss Lenora Satterdeld, of Montana
was burned to death by the explosion
of an oil can. The circumstances
surrounding her death are as follows:
Miss Satterfield, who is fourteen
years of age, went TO the kitchen
goout four o'clock to build tire in the
cook stove, preparatory TO getting the
evening meal. She took can Of kerr
sene oil and poured some in the stove
Within second massive flames burst
forth from the stove and the young
girls clothing igpited. She ran from
the house screaming and soon her
clothing was a mass OF flames from
head to foot.
Friends rushed to her assistance and
heavy blanket was thrown about The
girls form This also ignited and it
! had to he torn from the body. Be-
fore anything further could be done
the girls clothing were entirely burn
ed OF, as the flames spread so rapidly
that the most earnest efforts OF those
about her could not extinguish them.
From the girls head TO the tops of
her shoes WAS mass of burned flesh
and the unfortunate one Suffered ter
rib.e agony. She was placed in bed
and physicians summoned, who labor
ed for hours with a vain effort TO les
sen the suflerings OF the patient and
| II possible to spare her life. The lat
ter was impossible, however, owing
to the severity OF the burns and the
inhaling of the flames by the girl, and
last night as the clocks were Ginning
the midnight hour her spirit took its
| flight.
The deplorable affair caused great
excitement in the vicinity where :. It
occurred, and the deepest sorrow pre-
vailed in the little mining town last
night over The sad occurrence. 1t is
the general opinion that some burning
enbers were IN the stove when the
kerosene was thrown In, causing the
sudden explosion.
Deceased was daughter OF Mr..
Ellis Satterheld. Of Montana and
was very well known Ia the communi-
ty where she resided.
The funeral OF tho unfortunate girl
took place this afternoon about three
O'clock. and interment was made in

Mrs. Anthony t'oussett. nee Marie

Squire Shoemaker this morning on the
charge of bigamy. Marie, the urdis-
mayed, was right on the works at ten
O'clock, the appointed time, but Geo.
Householder. who claims her for his
wife was not there. Househclder's at
torney is said to have had all the proof
necessary to prove his case. House
holder, himself, was the one witness
necessary, and he was missing.
Justice Shoemaker promptly dis
missed the case. There was nothing
else to do. The dauntiess Marie is
again free to come and go at her own
sweet will.
This is the second time Householder
has-failed to appear when the case
was set for hearing. He wills in all
probability, be back in week or two
wanting another warrant. II he Goes
he is likely to be locked up himself.
Some woman in Waynesburg agreed
to stand good for the fines and cost;
in his case, and they amount to about
$40. Householder may be alright, and
Marie may be his wife, but he has Ger.
