MARIE THE DAUNTLESS
Was There for Trial, bas George
Householder Again Failed to Appear
another Chapter in the Bigamy
Case.

Mrs. Anthony t'oussett, nee Marie
Russell, was TO have been tried before
Squire Shoemaker this morning on the
charge of bigamy. Marie, the updis-
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. Householder'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 dauntless 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 will. 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 10 Waynesburg agreed
to stand good for the fines and costs
in his case, and they amount to about
$40. Householder may be alright, and
Marie may be his wife, but he has GER
tainly behaved very peculiarly to say
the least.

The DEADLY OIL CAN
Caused the Death of a Young
Woman at Montana.
Took the Can to Kindle the Fire and
an Explosion FolI0ws-All Efforts to
Save Her Life Prove FutiIe-Death
comes in Most Horrible Form.

Miss Lenora Satter6eld, OF Montata,
was burned to death by the explosion
OF an oil can The circumstances
surrounding her death are as follows:
Miss Satteraeld, who is fourteen
years of age, went to the kitchen
about four o'clock to build fire 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 ignited. She ran from
the house screaming and soon her
clothing was mass of flames from
head TO foot.
Friends rushed to her assistance and
a heavy blanket was thrown about the
girls form. This also ignited and it
had to be torn from the body. Be
fore anything further could be done
the girls clothing were entirely burn
ed off, as the flames spread SO rapidly
that the most earnest efforts OF those
about her could not extinguish them
From the girls head 10 the tops OF
her shoes was a 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 vain effort to les
sen the sutferings Of the patient and
If 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
embers were Ia the stove when the
kerosene was thrown in, causing the
sudden explosion.
Deceased was daughter of Mr..
Ellis Satteraeld, Of Montana, and
was very well known in the communi-
ty where she resided.
The funeral of the unfortunate girl
took place this afternoon about three
o'clock, and interment was made in
the Hawkinberry cemetery near Fort
Hill.
