Assisted by her l6 year old daughter, who was the only person in the room with her, Mrs Combs made hard fight to extinguish the flames. Finding the efforts of no avail, she ran from the house and sprang into a spring some distance away But the relief came too late ts most of her clothing had been burned and she was terribly injured about the back and sides.
 Her husband and son, who were working near the barn, heard the screams and reached the unfortunate woman Just after she had leaped in Q the spring She was carried back to the house and medical aid at once summoned. but nothing could be done save to attempt to alleviate her sufferings, and she passed away Sunday morning The daughter was badly burned about the hands.

INJURED BY AUTO DIES FROM BURNS
Daughter of Mir. and Mrs. Carl Hor-
 ton Has Narrow Escape.

Maxine Horton, little daughter of Mir and Mrs. Carl Horton, former resident of Springdale, had mar row escape from death Wednesday of last week in Little Rock when she was struck by an automobile. The following particulars of the affair are from the Little Rock Gazette:
 Maxine Horton, eight-year-old dau- ghter of Carl Horton, 909 Louisiana street, was seriously injured about the head, back and hips, and Eliza beth Gregg, the six-year-old daughter of F. NJ. Gregg, 9077 Louisiana street, was painfully bruised on the legs and jaw, when the little girls were run down by an automobile on Main street between Sd and 4th at 6.15 D. m. yesterday. The automobile was driven by a negro chauffer who was the only occupant at the time of the accident The car belongs to Chas 5. Stifft.
 The little girls, according to Frank Gregg, father Of Elizabeth Gregg, were on their way home. They at tempted to cross the street in the center of the block, after being cau- toned by their parents not to do SO. Elizabeth told her parents that she looked both ways and did not see the big auto approaching until it hit them Before the chauffer could stop the car, Maxine Horton was knocked down and the ear ran over her body. Elizabeth Gregg was thrown to the ground, and when the auto was stop ped it was directly over her body. She was pulled from under it, little the worse for her experience. Her father said she was painfully hurt about the jaw, but that she never lost her nerve" and would be al right in a short while The Horton child received an ugly gash on the i head and was bruised about the hips and legs, but it is not thought she is hurt internally The girls were taken to their homes in the same auto that struck them.

done equally as well, but with no bet
ter effect on the decision of our strug
giles. Yea, we may even boast of such
raids upon the coasts Of England and
Scotland too. In 1878 our own re-
nowned John Paul Jones, with a single
ship, the Ranger, laid open the weak
ness of those coasts, and kept them in
Il state Of alarm. He even made a
descent at the large town Of White
haven, where he surprised and took
two forts with thirty pieces Of cam
non, and set fire to the shipping. His
men plundered the house Of the earl
of Selkirk and carried off the family
plate, which, to the honor Of Jones
and America, was afterwards return
ed or compensated for. Singular
enough, Whitehaven is not very far
away from Scarborough, the scene of
one Of the recent Germain raids, be-
ing situated just directly across the
neck Of the island on the Irish sea.
Then again, the far famed battle be-
tween the Bon Homme Richard and
the Scraps, in which the name Jones
and the American navy became i'm
mortal, took place Of Marlborough
Head, which is only about fifteen or
twenty miles southeast of Scarborough,
and at a time when those seas were
patrolled by numberless ships of Brit
aims navy when it was reaching the
height Of it's ascendency, for it was
only about twenty-five years later that
it found it's zenith at the battle Of
Trafalgar. Yet those American ex-
ploits had no real effect on the final
outcome Of our war for independence.
1t must obviously follow that, no
matter how large and powerful a fleet
may be, it can not be everywhere all
the time; and, on the broad expanse
of the ocean, it is not an over-difficult
matter for skillfully manned ships to
evade that fleet in hurried raids; but
this can not be accepted as evidence of
decreased efficiency Of that fleet, or Of
any telling effect Oh the decision Of
the conflict.
Very truly yours,

THE GERMAN RAID.
History Furnishes Instances of Similar
Attacks on English COast--Ihe Real
Work OF English Fleet.

Editor Sumter Daily Item:
With pleasure 1 read the able edi-
torial in your issue Of the 10th,
apropos the recent raid Of German
ships on the coast Of England; and,
without any intention to infringe up
on the injunction Of our great and
good president against the expression
Of unneutrai opinions. shall UNDER
take to briefly answer your closing
question, to wit: What service does
Brtains fleet perform? Besides
driving the German merchant flag
from the seas, forcing the latter to
depend on her own resources, it is the
British navy that enables Britain to
subsist at this time by keeping open
her commerce with all the world, and
it is the means whereby, unannoyed,
she pOurs her growing hosts into the
arena of war. And, up to this date,
the greater Germany navy. which is
no small. unit among the worlds sea-
powers, has not been able to do any,
thing which will permanently count
In the final outcome Of the war. 1t
is true that one Of the Kaiser's sub
marines successfully raided the Eng
lish blockading fleet and destroyed
ports have been temporarily shelled
by German guns. But wherein lines
the permanent gain to Germany,
and how will this affect the final de-
cision Of the war? If in any way
these raids will work for the good Of
England, for their only logical effect
can be to stir the British people to
greater action. Nothing could serve
better to draw tardy people into the
ranks. No clarion can sound the call
to arms like the roar Of the enemy's
guns about ones home.
Scarcely has there been a war in
history where raids Of this character
have not been carried on by one side
or the other; but, in nearly every in
stance, they counted for nothing in
the final event Of the struggle. Many
cases may be cited as, for example,
the raids Of Morgan's men into Ohio
and other Union States in our own
Civil war, and the destructive effect
on the. Union commerce Of the Confed-
crate Cruiser Alabama. Nearer home,
we have the heroic example Of a lit
tie Confederate submarine stealing out
Of Charleston harbor and sinking a
Federal ironclad. but it made no i'm
preston on the blockade, or the final
outcome Of the war.
We must, indeed. admire tho our
age and ability Of he Gc"Nans in
these exploits. but w Americans EdN'
