MISTAKES GASOLINE FOR OIL.
Boy Seriously Burned Trying to Build
Fire.

Wichita Kan, Feb. 5.-A mistake in
taking gasoline instead of coaloil, with
which to start a fire, caused 10-year- old
Raymond Winters to receive exceed
ingly painful and dangerous burns.
The boy, who is a son of Mr.. and
Mrs. P. Winters, was building a fire
when the accident happened.
When he poured the gasoline on the
fire the flames flew up into his face
and were quickly communicated to his
clothing. 1t is thought that only the
quick work of nellie Winters, sister of
the lad. prevented him from receiving
fatal burns. She wrapped him in bed
clothes which she pulled from his bed,
and extinguished the flames
The boys clothing was partially
burned from his body and he sus-
tanned severe burns on several parts of
his body.

track team is rapidly rounding into

that the team has been greatly hamp-
cred by the lack of proper facilities,

night against the strong Wake Forest
track team.
The membership of the Methodist
team. as 1t stood last year, has been
greatly changed. One OF the most no.
tieeable improvements is that of pole
vaulting. Both Nation and Rcade
have succeeded In breaking all former
Trinity records. Nation will also give
his Wake Forest rival a hard run for
first places in the broad jump and
the high jump.
