ETC7HE2 CT JUROR
BURNED TO DEATH
Mrs. Wi--iam C.awson, Of Clyde,
Attempted to Light Fire by
Use of Oil.


Clyde, January 5-Two young
men, travelling agents, found Mrs.
Susannah Clawson, aged 67 years,
wife of William Clawson, died in
her home here Monday afternoon
about 3 o'clock. The woman had
been burned to death.
Mrs. Clawson had evidently
made an effort to get outside her
home, the body being close to the
door. An oil can, with some of
the contents spilled on the floor,
was found close to the stove. 1t is
believed that Mrs. Clawson was
burned while using oil in lighting
the fire.
The aged woman was alone. Her
husband had gone to Heshbon on
business and one of her sons, Geo.
Clawson, was serving on an lndi-
ana county jury at the county
seat.
The agents had been going from
house to house. When they came
to the Clawson home they found
the door standing partially open.
1t was very cold and the agents be-
came suspicious when they found
the open door. They investigated,
and neighbors were notified, who
in turn summoned the husband
and children. Two sons and a
daughter survive with the hus-
band.

al from the German military gov
ernment in Belgium publishes a
dispatch from Bergen-on-Zoom,

that the Cardinal demanded of the

and another place Monday, but
that this permission was refused.
The Tijd also says that a majo.
