DRIVEN FROM HOME
< BY GASOLINE EXPLOSION
'Yctor Warner Cook Family
Has Marrow Escape From
Serious Disaster,

The family of Warner Cook, at the
home at 800 Trott Ave., had mar
row escape from a great calamity
yesterday morning when a gasoline
explosion caused a serious fire and
the infant child, Florence, one year
and seven months old, was severely
burned, as we'll as Mr.. Cook him
self. The family had slept late and
Mr.. Cook had just filed and lighted
the gasoline stove, but owing to a
leaky can which he did not observe,
an explosion occurred which envel-
oped the rom in flames at once. Mr..
Cook, himself on fire, escaping from
the house, devoted his efforts to ex-
tinguishing the flames which envel-
oped the baby, when his wife came
to his rescue. The baby was taken
to the hospital and its burns dressed,
but at this writing is doing well and
is very patient little sufferer: The
fire department responded promptly
and succeeded in putting out the fire
before much damage was done, ex-
cept to the kitchen. All the house.
hold effects were removed from the
house. The cold weather contributed
to making this disaster to the home a
very unpleasant one.
