GesalIa Magyar Was Playing
With Matches With Com
panions When lgnitsd.
STARTED TO RUN HOME
Breeze Quickly Spread the
Blaze and Little One Is
in Serious Condition.
NOW IN THE HOSPITAL
Secured Box of Matches and
Decided to Set Them All
Off at Once.
STARTED TO RUN HOME
NOW IN THE HOSPITAL

Fesalla Magyar, the fve-year-old
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs Frank
Magyar. Of Buckingham avenue, lies
IN the hospital in prevcarious con-
dltlon as the result burns receiv-
ed Saturday afternoon. The girl
ran nearly block wit her clothes
afire. She was playing in the back
lots near the coal docks with a
number of her companions when the
accident happened.
Friends of the child claim that
one OF her playmates went homo
and succeeded In finding a box Of
matches which she brought back to
her companions. The children were
all about the same age and did not
realize the danger. At first the
children found difficulty in lighting
the matches. At last Gesalla Mag
var tried her hand at It, First she
lighted one and then decided to set
the entire supply ablaze
A burning match was placed in the
box and good sized blaze ignited
the light dress of the Magyar child.
With screams that could be heard
for block, the child, too frightened
to put the flames, started for her
home nearly block away. Urged on
by the thought that her parents
would save her, she rushed onward
while the flames, famed by the
breeze, made human torch of the
little girl.
Relatives of the child saw her
when nearing the porch. Blankets
were thrown about her and the
burning garments torn from her
scorched body. DR.. G. w. TyrrelI
was called for. Upon examination
he funde the burns of such a nature
that the injured child was rushed to
the city hospital. -

CITY MARSHAL
IS ARRESTED
William Walters Accused of
AssauIting Girl Striker.

On suspicion Of being the man
charged with assaulting one Of the
girl strikers of the Perth Amboy
Cigar Works, City Marshal Walters
was served with a John Doe" war
rant this morning and arraigned be-
fore Justice of the Peace Pickers-
gill, who paroled him until wanted.
The case evolved out of complaint Of
a girl who said a man had placed
his hand on her and thereby commit
ted an assault. She thought it was
private guard and described the
man as rather tall and wearing
light suit and straw hat. The de-
scription did not fit any Of the
guards but compared favorably with
that of the marshal who had been on
the scene of the strike and there
fore Constable Conard served the
warrant on him.
The case was set for $50 o'clock
this morning, but the complainant
was not on hand. Justice of the
Peace Pickersgill said If the mar
shall was the man complained against
he was justified in acting as he did
because he was serving warrants.
