FIVE YEAR-OLD TOT

Little Charlotte Cutler Dies from
Injuries Received While Play

WAS CONSCIOUS ALL THE TINE

Charlotte Alberta Cutler. 5-year
old daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. stuar
A. Cutler. $40 South Thirty-firg
street, died yesterday at st. Cath
crimes hospital as the result of burns
received Tuesday afternoon wher
her clothing was set afire by her 3.
year-old brother, Edward.
Late Tuesday afternoon Mrs. Cutler
was attracted 10 the attic Of her home
by the cries OF the little girl, who had
been quietly playing house with her
younger brother for several hours.
Reaching the playroom she found the
child a veritable torch OF flame, writing
on the attic floor. snatching an old
blanket she managed to extinguish the
blaze but had not arrived soon enough to
save the little one from being horribly
burned. The fire had scared and
scorched the flesh from the girls neck
to her very feet ana by the time DIT.
Seymour Smith arrived IL was only a

Conscious All the Time.
The child was taken TO st. GATHERINGS
hospital, and up to the time Of her death
was conscious all the time. "she hardly
cried at all after the doctor came--and
let him dress her burns with scarcely a
whimper," declared Mrs. Cutler The
little girl bid her mother bood-bye at the
hospital early this morning and barely a
half hour later passed away.
Charlotte was the first TO die of eleven
children ranging in age from IS months
20 IS years. and the family are absolutely
heartbroken. Mr.. Cutler. who is freight
conductor on the Union Pacific, came in
off his run the evening Of the accident.

day night. I'VE have a big family 10
feed" Mrs Cutler volunteered. "He
could do nothing for our poor little girl,
20 he had to 60"
Mrs. Cutler burned.
In smothering the flame Mrs Cutler
was badly burned when her hand came
In contact with the red hot metal clasp
of her daughters garter, while the
buckle OF the little girls belt which
touched her arm created similar but
less severe burn.
The little brother managed to tell the
mother how the accident occurred, and
from Mrs. Cutler It WIS learned that
the children had some way got hold OF
a match and were trying TO burn some
bits OF paper IN a little doll stove. The
girl leaning over the playthinK was set
on fire when her wais. came in contact
with the lighted match.
IT'S terribly hard 10 lose a little one
In such an awful way. but ] thank God
that she did not live. The doctors told
me that II she had she would have been
a cripple and an invalid" sobbed the
mother as she related the experience.
