FAIRFIELD WOMAN
BURNED TO DEATH

Fairfield, Dec. 23.-Mrs. Ben B.
Bayles, who was so frightfully burned
yesterday morning at her home on
700 West Stone street, passed away
at 8 O'Clock yesterday afternoon at the
Jefferson county hospital after several
hours Of the greatest suffering.
Mrs Bayles had arisen early Mon
day morning and was preparing hot
biscuits for the family breakfast.
While in the act of looking at them
in the oven her dress became ignited
from a leaking hole in the gas stove
which had just caught fire and before
assistance could reach her practically
her entire body was cooked. Medical
aid was summoned but it was seen at
once that life was only a question OF
hours and to better alleviate her sur
ferings Mrs. Bayles was removed to
the hospital.
Mrs. Bayles was born near Glendale,
March IS, 1854, and her maiden name
was Fannie Hickenbottom. She was
twice married and is survived by her
husband, B. B. Bayles, and one son,
Walter Rizor, Of this city, and one
daughter, Mrs. Will Brown of North
English.
While no definite arrangements
have yet been made for the funeral
services they will probably be held
this afternoon or Wednesday morning.

DISCOVER FACTS
Of DOUBLE LIFE
WOMAN ENDURES VOLUNTARY
SECLUsIoN FOR THREE YEARS
FOR SAKE OF MAN SHE LOVED

Monticello, N. Y, Dec. 23.-With
the release from the Sullivan county
Jail, probably today of Miss Adelaide
NJ Brance. the woman who for three
years endured voluntarily confinement
of Melvin H. Couch, the mystery OF
her identity may never be solved.
Little by little Sheriff Frank l..
Kline and George L. Cook county
prosecutor have brought out the story
of Miss Brance's life with Couch
whose death she announced in so
dramatic manner Sunday at the
home of DR.. j. F. Curlett brother-in-law
Of the dead attorney. 1t was due to
the discovery Of the presence Of the
woman by the widow when she was
led to explore a room in his Offices her
husband had always forbidden her to
enter that the story became known
and the manner Of the life for three
years Of the voluntary prisoner re-
yealed.
Miss France told the prosecutor that
many years ago she lived at Goshen,
NJ Y. but facts concerning her early
life she withheld. After much ques-
tioning she told of her life in the little
room opening Off COUGHS Office, of how
she never went out except at night
and then only when she was sure no
one would see her, and how she lived
on provisions brought to her by the
lawyer and through it all was happy
because she loved and was loved
She said she was forty years old,
had been a book agent but stopped
there except to add that it was while
trying to interest Couch in a book
fifteen years ago that their friendship
began. They met at frequent inter.
walls after that time she said, until
about three years ago when they con-
cluded that secret meetings that
lasted a day at first could be pro-
longed to week, and finally to her
taking up living quarters in the law
yer's Office.
Her grief at COUGHS death was genu-
inc and the sheriff who at first har-
bored suspicion concerning her finally
admitted that there was no charge on
which she could be held.
An autopsy performed on the body
Of Couch revealed that his death had
been due to heart disease. The cor
oners jury's verdict was accidental
death. Mrs Couch refused to dis
cuss the case.

THE COUNCIL BLUFFS
TEACHERS FORM CLUB

Council Bluffs, Dec. 23.-The teach.
ers have organized mutual benefit
association and will pay a sum amount
ing to 81 per day for enforced absence
from work. The membership being
necessarily limited, it is just possible
that this organization may strike
snag at an early period Of its exis'
tence. While most Of these instructors
teach arithmetic, they may not be very
good at figures after all. However, 1t
is a good move, and it will do more
than simply give these people help
when they need it. 1t will teach them
to get together and to work together
and for each other and for their own
interests. No doubt, the teachers
pension is coming soon. And that i'm
plies greater security in the employ
ment than has heretofore been the case
and that again implies general I'M
provement in the condition of the
teacher and more especially as far as
salaries are concerned. The profess
sion will be elevated just as soon as its
members make up their minds that
it should be done For they are the
ones who must do it. No outsider can
do this work for them and if that could
be done, it would be of little benefit to
them.
