Readsboro Woman Died of Burns.
Mrs. George johnson of Readsboro
died last week Thursday night as tne
result of fearful burns received by her
three weeks ago, when can contain
inc gasoline exploded, covering her az
most COMPLETELY with the blazing fuld'
Mrs, johnson believed she had pur-
chased kerosene, but through a mistake
in shipping, gasoline had been poured
into the tank at the store where the
purchase was made. and her own can
was filed with gasoline 1t was placed
in her kitchen and, soon after, she saw
eo,otb;nn ,yas uronu the can appar-
emily being ablaze. She fastened 10
throw it from the house, but before she
could do so the explosion occurred.
Doctors and nurses did everything pos
sible for her after the accident, but TO
no avail, and death relieved her from
her awful sufferings. Horace Jillson.
who procured some of the gasoline IN
place of kerosene, and who was burned
badly when he attempted to hasten the
fire with it, is slowly recovering ana is
out of danger. 1t is likely suits Tor
damages will be instituted in the near
future.
The Porter Screen Manufacturing. com
pany, located at Winooski, and employing
about 300 men is to be moved to Trenton,
N. j., in the near future, according to IN
formation furnished at the office of the
company. The reason given for the re-
moval Of the plant to Trenton, is the saw
ing to the company in. outgoing freight
rates to all eastern markets and also the
saving in the cost of raw material for
manufacturing purposes. 1t is claimed
that the outgoing rates from Trenton to
Boston are lower than from Winooski to
Boston and that the average from Iren-
ton TO New York, Philadelphia and Balti-
more is only about half the rates from
Winooskl.
