CHILD BADLY
SCALDED.
Pulls Stopper From Washing
Machine and Boiling Water
and Lye Flows On 1t. Infant
of Mr.. and Mrs. Fred King.

At about eleven o'colck this morn
ing, a child aged about fourteen
months. the infant of Mr.. and Mrs.
Fred King, was scalded very badly by
water and lye from wash tub being
spilled upon it.
The family washing was being done
and Mrs. King had told the hired girl
to see that the stopper of the tub was
in securely. By some means the
girl overlooked the admonition of the
mother and the child playing about
the tub finally worked the stopper
loose, with the result that the scald-
ing water flowed in a stream over the
child.
DIR. Parker who happened to be near
at the time hurried in and admins
tered relief to the child before Dr.
TAYLOR who had been sent for had had
time to get to the home.
When DR.. Taylor arrived he found
that the child had been badly scalded
on the stomach and that Mt least a
third of the body had been covered
by the boiling fluid. He Immediately
did everything in his power for the
child to give it relief and hopes that
he will succeed in saving its life. al

that the same steam service now in

Fraudulent Agent.

A suit has been brought in behalf
of Henry R. Rhone and others in this
citv. against the National Insurance
company of Montpelier. Vermont, for
the recovery of premiums paid to an
agent of that company, who worked
this city and county. The agent, a
man by the name of G. Schlottfeldt.
came here bringing letters from the
general agent of the state, Frederick
Busby, and induced NJ. Forty and
others to assist him in doing business.
He collected the premiums for fire in
surance and then skipped with the
money. The general agent at Denver
now repudates the insurance written
by his agent, recommended by him.
Service was secured on the general
agent and also the company, recently
and the case will be pushed to the
fullest extent of the law.
