LiteraIIy Burned TO DEATH.

/ Literally Burned to Death.
Early Wednesday morning the
citizens of Colfax were shocked to
learn that a young man in this town
had been horribly roasted and
bnrned to death. The young man
was Robert Barr, aged about "a
years. said to be from New Castle,
Pennsylvania, aud later from Wis
consin. He came to Colfax from
New Orleans several months ago,
and was employed by Mr.. ]. II.
McNeely as hostler, having charge
of his stables, horses and mules.
The young man was subject to ep-
eleptic fits, and had one or two
spells since he came here. The
indications are that he got up at
4:3O Wednesday morning, his alarm
clock being set at that hour, and,
the weather being very cold, he
made quick hot fire out of light
dry stuff in the fireplace in his
room at the corner of the horse lot.
He had washed his face and dress
ed himself it seems, when he was
taken with a fit and pitched head
long into the fireplace, his head
striking against the back of the |
chimney, and, lying sidewise with
his head and face in the blazing
ire, he literally roasted to death
IN a most horrible manner. His
nose and lips were completely in
,inerated and burned off, and the
lair and scalp were burned of,
eaving the skull bare and baked
Until it cracked, and the flesh of
he entire face was burned to a
risp, while the neck aud breast ,
Tere also cooked, and the clothing
'urned off half way the body. 1t
7as most distressing sight to wit {
ess, and excited the deepest pity {
0 all who saw it.
DR.. E. B. Gray, coroner, held an
lquest over the body, and the jury :
sturned verdict in accordance !
18th the above facts. :
Mr.. McNeely, who had the young 9 9
IAN in his employ, says he was one
the most punctual and trustwor.
" men he ever had around him \
met and unassuming, pleasant :
I'd agreeable, always in readiness :
help, and he had become SO re- :
able that he depended on him
lplicitly. So when his teamsters
ported at 6 o'clock that the hors- II
and mules had not been fed, L
ID that the stable doors and lot al
tie were all locked, he knew some II
ing was wrong, and Fastening to :
Q scene was Mortified and shock
to discover the terrible condi-
IN OF the unfortunate young man. II.

Every variation OF the tucked

is favorite for lingerie materials
and for the thin silks that are SINH
larly treated, but for all materials OF
sufficiently light weight TO allow OF
tucking. This one includes a yoke
OF unusual shape and can be treated
after a number OF ways. In the illus
tration Persian lawn is combined
with yoke of inserted tucking and
trimming Of embroidery and fancy
stitches. But there are a great many
materials that cam be used for con-
trasting yoke. the various all-overs,
silk tucked and inserted and the one
from which the waist is made,
trimmed in a number of ways, while
the band at the lower edge can with
propriety be either OF lace or en-
broidery or in one Of the fancy trim
mings or OF the material embroid-
cred, so that there is every opportun-
ity for the exercise of individual taste
and discretion.
The waist is made with a fitted
lining, which can be used or omitted
