WARSAW. ILL.,, June 14.-Miss
Ophelia Hoffman, daughter of Robert
Hoffman of this city, was painfully
burned last night when she went to
light gasoline stove in the kitchen
of her home. There was leak in
the tank, evidently, and the explosion
followed. Miss Hoffman was burned
about the arms and hands, her eye
brows and eye lashes were singed and
her clothing caught fire She proved
plucky in spite of the pain Of her
her efforts, unaided, that she kept
the flames from being communicated
to the other part of the house.
Miss Hoffman, although badly burn
ed, and despite the fact that the
stove was blazing, pulled it out into
the yard, saving the house by her
| action as the flames were threaten
ing to consume the kitchen. Her
dress caught fire but she managed to
extinguish the blaze. The firemen
put out the fire in the stove and
kept the blaze from spreading in the
kitchen.
A neighbor ran to Miss Hoffman's
assistance and summoned physician
to dress her wounds. Her hands and
arms are seriously blistered from the
burns. 1t was felt that she had a
very narrow escape from more SER
ious If not fatal burns. She was
alone in the house and her mother is
an invalid. The accident happened
about 5 o'clock.

The shooting took place at the en-
trance to the alley at the Conklin

stopped the negro and asked him
where he was going and what he was
doing out at such late hour. The
negro is supposed to have had the
revolver concealed in his sleeve and
fired the gun point blank at Nc
Gonigal, who was standing in front
of him. The first shot is believed to
have been the one that proved fatal
to the officer. 1t entered the upper
part of his body and passed through
the liver, coming, out on the right

passed through McGonigal's left
thigh.
Suffering intense pain from the
wounds, McGonigal pulled his revol.
