night In horrible agony from the burns
which she received at supper time
while trying to light fire in the
kitchen range with the aid OF can of
kerosene. The end was not unexpect-
ed for the little girl was SO badly
burned by the flames that her body
was stripped entirely of its clothing
and her flesh burned to blackened
crisp. No hope for her recovery was
given out at the time by the attend
Ing physicians. The fact that the child
had the presence Of mind to run from
the house when the, explosion took
place and roll upon the ground In a
vain effort to defeat the flames which
we're burning her to death is consid.
cred remarkable. Had she lost con.
troll OF herself and remained In the
kitchen the house would undoubtedly
have been burned to the ground. The
child probably realized this and sought
to confine the flames only to herself.
She was alone In the house at the
time.
