The home of August Itichtor, night watch rn in at the .-hops, was thrown in inou. nir.g lnt evening over the death of their bright little three-year-old daughter, Emma. L-st night about 7 o'clock Emma, with the other children of the h ' UM-hoM and hiiiio neighbor ch.ldren, h td built a little bonfire of straw and weeds in the dooryar-d near t lie hoe. The other children were carrying little bits of straw to keep the lire going while Emma was pok iig at tbc burning mass with a stick. A gust f wit d whipped the child's drcj-s over the lire and instantly she wa wrapped in li.iiucs. The screams of the fated child and her companions brought the mother to the scene, who attempted to ave lier li'.tle one by re moving the clothing. "JJnek" Neligh, who was ;ns.-ii;g the house, seeing the child's preuicaiiicnt, teok oil his coat, v. rapped it about h -r and smothered the llames, not, however, before the clot h ing had been nearly l.iurned oil ami the body burned ii'.most to a crisp. The De.-h hunj from tin: little arms in shreds, the face burned almost beyond recognition ai d the was badly burned intci nally from inhaling the llames. Emma was carried into the house by tenJer h ; nds at:d medical aid sum moned. Dr. SchildKnecht, on arriving at the heme, realized at once that she was beyond till human power to t.avo, and directed his efforts to the relief of her sufferings as far as possi ble until death would come to give her relief. During the night she was al ternately rational and delirious. Sometimes she would talk of her burn ing clothes, at othe rs she would call cheerfully to her companions as she was wont to do in her childish play, while again her scre tins were fairly heartrending. The agonied parents u niched over the little suffeter and ten lei ly ministered to her till the end came, at 10 o'clock this morning. In trying to temove the clothing from the little girl the mother's hands and face and neck we! e b;.dly burned, and she will be unable to attend to her household duties for many days. The funeral will occur tomorrow Wednesday at 2 o'clock, from the family residence on Lincoln avenue, sou 'h west of the shops. A SilO.OOO Transftr. J. V. Egenberger today traded his Vienna bakery and store building to Wici. Mot row for his line farm near Murray. The transfer involves prop erty to the value of $10,000.
