SHOCKINGLY BURNED.
A Girl Who Started a Fire
With Kerosouo Oil.
Her Recovery From the IP juries
Barely Possible.
Tlie Hotmo in Which the Accident
Occurred in Allies.
Carrie Bcrtlcson , n servant in the
house of Paul Nclsnn , on Seventh
street , between Lcavcnworth nnd
Jones , attempted to start a smoulder
ing fire with the aid of kcronono oil
about 0 o'clock last evening and the
result was as usual disastrous. The
girl herself is BO badly burned that she
may not recover and the house is a
heap of smouldering ruins.
It scorns that the girl was alone iti
the hoiiso , and as it was approaching
Hitppcr time nnd the fire

She had scarcely slatted to pour the
oil on the nrnoking embers
before they llarcd up in

cating with the oil in the can it ex
ploded in H moment , drenching her
with the burning fluid. Thu poor
girl ran wildly about the house nnd
finally gained thu yard where her
piercing screams attracted attention.
Several buckets of wntur were hastily
procured and

and afterwards n blanket , in which
she was wrapped. The fire was soon
suppressed after the arrival of assist
ance , but not before her thin clothing
was completely charred. Her
lower limbs and right side
were badly burned , the surface
of the flesh showing nearly a
continuation of splotches and blisters.
Her arm * und hands had boon pain
fully scorched in her vain ufFort to
smother the ilainos. The cuticle

portions of the body when touched.
The unfortunate girl

She wus gently carried to the house
of John Nelson , near by , and Dr.
Bell summoned.
The pitiful accident to the girl had
diverted attention from thu house ,
where in the meantime the fire had
> oun making considerable progress.
Che neighbors readily lent their as
sistance nnd soon had removed most
of the furniture , except such as
was in the kitchen where
.ho fire originated. An alarm brought
.ho dromon to the spot , and not withstanding -
standing thu difficulty of

they soon had streams at work. The
liouso was a dimple onc-storyljfranio
structure , with a kitchen attached ,
nnd was surrounded by other build
ings of n like character. These , it
was at first thought , would be swept
iway , but a bucket brigade kept tlio

non succeeded in confining the flumes.

ho aide and cost roof. A stiff breeze
was blowing and mailers began to
ook serious. However , the three
troama which had been working
uninterruptedly for some time began
o have nu effect , and the thorough
trenching which 'Lawrence Siangan's
louse received prevented n further
pread of the fire in that direction ,
'euplo near at hand , notwithstanding ,
voro removing their household goods
ind preparing for the worst. The
trcols in the neighborhood were
docked with people , and the greatest
ixcitemcnt prevailed.
It soon became evident , however ,
hat the fire waa under control and its
urther extension impossible. The
crowds soon began to dwindle away
and the firemen were left alone to
completely extinguish the flames.
This result waa not reached until 3:30 :
o'clock.
Goo. A. iloslyn , the manager of the
Newspaper Union , made a narrow
escape from n horrible death. It ap
pears that ho with his family occupies

It so happens that Mr. Joslyn's

visit , BO that ho wua all alone. The
Tire wiw well under way before ho was
awakened by the smell of smoko. Ho
arose hurriedly and found the pas
sages choked up. He know the loca

groping along , succeeded in reaching
the open uir. Ho was very much
overcome , but was soon re
vived. A short time later ho was
cecded in reaching the rooin again
uiul recovering his vest containing a
valuable watch. Those were the only
things ho saved.
The direct loss to the newspaper
Union is $0000 on Block , which is
totally destroyed. It is insured for
$5000. Mr. Joslyn losses $1000 on
his p rsonal effects which were covered
by a policy of insurance in the sum ol

The building was probably worth

The Bl nil's City and Ilcscuo teams
gave their picnic at Yonkerman'a gar
den yesterday. The companies were
out in good scaaon and appeared fresh
nnd ready to take up the long line of
narch. After forming on Bryant
street , they starled over the following
route ! 'West on Broadway to Fifth ,
south on Fifth lo Sixth avenue , west
on Sixth avenue to Sixth , north on
Sixth to Willow , cast on Willow to
Pearl , notth on Pearl to Broadway ,
cast on Broadway to picnic grounds.
On arriving at the grounds
Prof. Olker's band discoursed some
splendid music , after which Mayor
Viiuglmn introduced Hon. John H ,
Keatloy. Mr. Kealley spoke briefly ,
calling attention lo the struggles that
were had in organizing the first fire
department of Council Blufis , thirteen
years ; ago ; how the old fogies then
were indifferent for fear that after a
while the firemen would bo ask
ing them fob aid to keep
up the organization , and said
that a well organized fire department
would certainly not hinder the growth
and p-ospoiity of Council Binds. Ho
apoko of the condition of the present
department and said that it stood second
end to none in the United States. To
the untiring efforts of the Council
Blufis firemen , ho said , was duo the
grandest firemen's tournament over
told in this country. Mr. Keatley in
conclusion referred very touchingly lo
; ho cloud of mourning that rested
on the threshold of the president.
After Mr. Kcatloy rolired amid
cheers Olkor'a band played a beauti
ful piece. Loud calls wera made for
Mayor 'Vaughan. When the mayor
stepped upon the platform the trees
rang with the cheers of n thousand
people. Ho apoko briefly butsolemnly.
He said that his heart waa bowed
down with grief and that the next tick
of the batlory niuht bring to their
oars the sad tidings that the president
bad passed to that bourne from whence
no traveler returns. Ho waa surprised
to aoo BO fuw of the leading business
inon present. Ho said that these men
look to the firo-boya to protect their
property when the bell sounds its
dread notes of alarm in the night. It
was too often the case that whemtho
department would keep in the way of
a little encouragement they were all
too busy to render such assistance.
Ho hoped they all had a good excuse
to offer the boys.
After the speaking the tire com
panies with invited guests , and THK
BKE reporter ( excuse the allusion ) ,
repaired io the suacioua hall in thu
main building , where a generous re
past had boon spread. Tlio mayor
wua escorted to the head ; of the table

Col. Keatloy , Bovoral members of the
city council , Mr. Spotman , Mr. "Kent-
ing , Jacob Williams , ex-Alderman
of the city , and Ihen TUB BEU re-
porlor. Everything tliat could please
the eye or palate was served on the
table. Mr. John Ahlia , of greenback
fume , wus present , and ho ar.d Mayor
Vaughan entered into quito u spirited
discussion. Subject , "Tho power of
prayer , " with the mayor a little ahead.
After dinner came music , chasing the
greasy pig nnd climbing the greasy
pole , which all participated in without
regard to BOX , color or previous con-
ditijjn of servitude. The afternoon
was occupied by such amusements.
After supper the band gave a concert
and played dance music. The people
came out from thecity in large numburs.
The grounds were nmgnificonlly
decorated and illuminated with hun
dreds of Chinese lanterns. The mu
sic and dancing , swinging and sing
ing wore indulged in freely until n
late hour , when the company retired ,
sayini ; olio and nil , that for men who
know how to pot up a first-class time ,
commend us to Chief Lacy , Capt.
Bowman and their bravo fire boys.
The display of fireworka in the eve
ning was grand , costing the boys

THAT CONDUCTOR.
A KKW WOUDH MOKK IN UEU.UIUTO HIM.
Whatsoever may bo the legal aspect
of the civsa thu conductor of the Rock
Island railroad ought to know that to
insult an old and respected citizen o ;
Council Blufls.was.unc.dlod for and en.
tirely out of the line of his duty. Nei
ther thu Hock Island road or any olhet
railroad company requires ila employes
lo insult n citizen and pull the compa
ny into an expensive- suit and per
haps damages just to carry out u sim
ple rule. This tulo made by the com
pany , "That all passengers not pur
chasing tickets before entering the
train must pay an oxtru Ion cents'
is not un urbitratry one that must bo
enforced , fit | all times and at al
hazards. The position of a conductor
ificd in stopping tlio train and flump-
np the old gentleman off in the first
corn field eight miles from homo ?
Does a railroad company Rttpnoso that
.ho rule is so Arbitrary as to require
iini to take such n course ? Wo don't
joliovo ho can think so. Now ,
nko thu * case that Occurred
the ether day. When the conductor
came alonij Mr. Everett picacntcd need
{ oed excuse for not paying the oxtrn
.en cents. He told thu conductor
that when he got to the ulation that
mornina thu ticket oflico was closed.
This being the fact , Mr. Everett believed -
lioved that to demand of him n pen-
ilty for not purchasing a ticket when
t was not his fault , waa dimply ex
tortion , mid ho would n.s soon have
: > aid $1,000 as ten conla , on the prin-
: iplc of millions for justice , hut nut
a cent for tribute. Tnuso railroad
: onductors must remember that hav-
ng charge of a train of cars is a bus-
ness , and like ovorythins ? else , aliould

Hr. Fox sliouid have accepted Mr.

NO CURIOSITY.
The Title of "Hon. " Affixed tea
a Name Out West.
On the register of thu Withnoll yesterday -
torday nupo.ircd th6 following : "Hon
J. B. Finloy , Pennsylvania. " The
prevailing opinion among pcoplu who
saw this cnligraphic curiosity was that
the subscriber was an obscure squire
from the back precincts of the Quaker
state whcro the only mode of transit
is the lumbering Conestoga wagon. If
the "Hon. J. B. Finloy" thinks his ti
tle an extraordinary dignity in this
neck of the woods lie is very much
mistaken. Many men who have had
the same prefix to their names are
now summering ill' the < state peniten
tiary nt Lincoln. Indeed , it is a vary
common western title. "Tho woods
'
is full of 'om. " i
