BABY FOUND DEAD
IN BLAZING HOUSE
Firemen, Third to Attempt
Rescue, Brings Baby Safe
Iy From Flames.

Cropping through smoke on the second
floor of burning house at 1926 Sixth
| street southwest yesterday afternoon in
an effort to locate 15-month-old Rich
ard c.. Burbage, Fireman Joseph F..
Hanley of No. 10 Truck Company found
the child dead in its crib.
Previous attempts to rescue the baby
had been made by the father, William
o. Burbage, and Mrs. Emma Osthaus,
1886 Sixth street southwest, but both
had been driven back by smoke and
flames.
Accompanied by his lieutenant, F.
M. Edwards, Hanley mounted ladder
Blinded by the smoke, Me was forced
to feel his way. Shutting across the
floor, he came to the bed. A rift in the
smoke showed him the baby lying in
the crib
Lieut.. Edwards stripped off his coat
and wrapped 1t around the infant.
Hanley carried the child down the
ladder. At Emergency Hospital the
baby was pronounced dead by DR..
Emanuel Foote.
The fire occurred about 3:15 o'clock
yesterday afternoon and, presumably,
was started by William o. Burbage
4-year-old brother of the dead child
who is thought to have been playing
with matches. The little boy escaped
with only his hair singed. The father
said however, that he could not find
out from William if he was responsible
Mrs. Ada B. Burbage, mother of the
children, was shopping when the fire
started She reached home just after
the lifeless body of her baby had been
taken to the hospital.
Burbage estimated damage to his
home. at 81 500.
