Fatally Burned.

Bristol, Tenn, Sept. Al. Edward
Massie, a popular Bristol travelling
man, has been wanted at his home since
the middle of the past week on account
of an accident by which his daughter
was fatally burned and his wife sus-
tanned burns that may yet result in her
death. Mr.. Massie is travelling for a
Bristol firm. His family resides at
Dungannon, in Scott county, Va. For
a week he has been in the back counties,
away from telegraph and telephone
connections, and while the Bristol firm
has daily received orders from him,
they have been unable to get news to
him of the terrible distress in his home.
The message announcing the death of
his daughter came to the firm of Crum-
ley & Son here, on Saturday. 1t was
from the attending physician, and
urged that the firm:make further efforts
to find Mr.. Massie. Mr.. Massie mailed
orders from Flagpond, Va, on the
1st day of September. 1t is possible
that he has been communicated with by
this time.

Confessed Her Crime.

New York, Sept. "A confessed ac-
compIice in the murder of her two-year-
old daughter whose mutilated body was
subsequently bathed and neatly clad in
it's best clothes and then tossed into the
open doorway of West Side tenement
house, Agnes Hyland, aged % years,
was locked up tonight.
Gustave Denser, a plumber with
whom the woman lived, as a house
keeper, is also under arrest. The mo-
ther told the police that Denser killed
her baby girl Gertrude, because it "was
in the way" and that she helped to dis
pose of the body.
The janitor of the tenement this
morning stumbled over the body, which
wrapped in a newspaper, lay in the cor
ner of a dark stairway. Physicians
found fatal bruises on the temple, while,
the face bore nine stab wounds, appar-
emily made by a penknife.
According to the mother, the child,
who was an attractive, robust young
ster with a profusion of light curly
hair, and blue eyes, was beaten to death
the previous night because Denser, who
has three children of his own, objected
to her presence in the home. Later
the mother washed the body to remove
bloodstains and, dressing it in a petit
coat, white dress, white cloak, held at
the waist with leather belt, and pat
ent leather shoes, carried it to the door
wav where it was found.
