BURNED TO DEATH
Miss Nellie Knapp Victim OF
Fearful Tragedy at lie
Claire.
CHANDELIER FELL AT CHURCH
Clothing Ignited and Fatal Burns
Were Quickly In
fIicted.

Miss Nellie Knapp, lie Claire young
lady, was the victim of an awful ac-
cident at lie Claire last evening, re-
ceiving fatal burns through the drop
ping of a chandelier while attending
meeting of the Epworth League in
the Methodist church at that place.
The meeting of the league was held
according to custom before the reg
ular services at the church, and Miss
Knapp was among those in attend
ance. The meeting was held i'll the
basement of the church, the room be-
ing illuminated by chandelier com
posed of four oil lamps hung by
means of rope and pulley. The rope
that was used was old and while the
meeting was in progress it broke, pre-
cipitating the lamps to the floor and
starting fire.
Miss Knapp was near the chandelier
and her clothing was instantly ignit-
ed There was scene of wild con-
fusion in which those present rushed
to the door. BY the time others had
recovered their presence of mind and
attacked the flames that were burn
ing Miss Knapp's clothing, she was
fearfulIy burned, almost the entire
surface of her body being affected.
Suffers Agony.
Everything possible was done for
her relief. but she fingered in fearful
agony and finally expired at o'clock
this morning.
The unfortunate young lady was 20
years of age ard the daughter of JOS
eph Knapp. one of the well-known
residents of that vicinity. The trag-
edy has cast a gloom upon the entire
village.

PECULIAR APPLICATION
OF LAWS OF INHERITANCE

Dcs Moincs papers publish an ac-
count of the demise of one John Hal
line, of that city, who left an estate
of about $4,000 after all expenses
were paid, the same being held by
the administrator who, under the pc
culiar laws of the state, is uncertain
whethed it should go to the relatives
Cf the deceased or to the state. The
DeS Moines papers claim that y. +.
Peterson, of this city, an uncle. is the
only living relative of this country, a
statement that .Ir. Peterson himself,
when seen by an Argus reporter to-
day. denied. The truth is that there
is a brother living i'm this country and
two sisters in Sweden.
The peculiar point in the matter is
that under the laws neither Mr.. Pc
tersCn nor the brothers are likely to
receive any part of the estate. The
parents of the deceased when living
were aliens and the law prohibits
aliens from receiving the property as
an inheritance. While the brother and
uncle in this country are American
citizens. their connection with the de
ceased comes through the alien par
ents. and therefore the supposition
is that the chain of Inheritance is
broken and the state of Iowa will get
the property in the absence of amy
recognized heirs.

FAILURE TO GET BOAT
SPOILED THE FIGHT

The fight between Joe Flaherty and
Adam Ryan, which was so industri-
ously advertised for some time lately
and which was scheduled to take
place on barge on the Mississippi
river some place below the city yes
terday afternoon, failed to happen,
and the reason for that failure is
somewhat hard to discover. When it
came time for the crowd that had as
sembled to pay So per head for the
privilege of Witnessing the match to
step aboard the boat there was no
boat on hard. The managers said
they had made all arrangements and
declared someone else was to blame
After various eXpedients ha. been
suggested and found impracticable
and there had been good deal of
energy uselessly expended, the fight
was declared off.
1t seems that the managers had de-
pended upon picking up Il boat and
barge when they wanted it, and there
fore had not made their overtures for
accommodations long enough in ad-
vance. Yesterday it was found that
the only barge available had been en-

who went to Linwood. The H. w. b.
took the firemen down and when the
captain undertook to come back with
the barge to fill the other engage
ment the frcmen resisted under the
impression that it make them rather
late in getting home if they had to
wait for the other contract to be fill
ed. Therefore the barge remained
at Linwood during the day and a
number of sports are several dollars
apiece better off than they might
otherwise have been.
