P. N. NIELSEN BURNED TO
DEATH IN ALASKA FRI

Word was received here this week
that Mr.. Nielsen was burned to
death on the End of December when
his hotel caught fire.
All the guests had gotten out of
the building but woman who
thought of a purse she had over
looked and rushed back into the
building. Nielsen followed her
with the intention of getting her
out. 1t seems that a gasoline stove
exploded and enveloped both of them
in flames. The woman perished in
the fire but Nielsen was rescued,
tho badly burned. The fire oc-
Cured at in the morning and he
died about o'clock in the evening.
He made his home in Petersburg
and was rushed from there to hos
pital at Wrangle but medical skill
could not save him.
Nielsen lived here for number of
years, and about four years ago
moved to Seattle where he spent
two years after which he went to
Alaska where he has since been en-
gagged in business.
