o'clock yesterday afternoon as a re-
suit of burns which she received
earlier in the day. %
The frequent story Of a child play
ing with matches must be related
again in telling Of the Bauer girls
death. The accident occurred at II
o'clock yesterday morning, and, just
as soon as possible. the child was rush
ed to this city to receive medical at
tention. The burns were fatal how
ever, and the little girl succumbed q
few hours after they were dressed.
Mother Makes Terrible Find.
The girl was alone at the time. The
first intimation the mother had of the
accident was when she saw the child s
charred body, hanging to which were
Few smoking shreds of cloth, In the

when the accident occurred. Once, she
thought she heard the child scream,

Frantic Mother Alone.
The child had made an effort to
reach her mother, but could get no
farther than the door. Mrs. Bauer
rushed to the burned body and
snatched the child from the floor. All
of the clothes had been burned from
the body. and the head was the only
part that had not been burned.
There was no one near to assist

frantic mother had to leave the char

q horse and buggy ready to drive
away. She drove hurriedly to the field
where Mr.. Bauer was working, and
together they rushed to the home. of
Mrs. Geo. Schmidt, whence they came
to Grand Forks in an automobile. Mrs.
Schmidt drove them to this. city, the
grief stricken parents holding, the

forced over the road in the hope that
they might arrive in time to afford re-

While driving to Grand Forks, Mrs.
Bauer did her best to tell how the ac-
cident happened. She is positive II
was caused by matches, for she saw
burned matches all over the floor. The
matches were kept &on q shelf, and
consequently she believes the girl
climbed upon a chair and reached
them.

PARIS, Jan. Soup and boiled
beef distribution has been undertaken
on large scale in Paris to meet the
winters demand. Pieces of beef
which, though wholesome and nutri-
tious, are not advantageous for the
feeding of the soldiers on account of
weight and cumbersomeness, are sent
by the army butchers to the soup
kitchens for the poor, to be sold at
the lowest price that nets actual
cost. The soup was sold first at six
sous a litre and the same price for
a half pound of beef, but the soup
has now been reduced to two sous a
litre and the beef to four sous a
pound
