Show SUFFERS SERIOUS BURNS. I Miss Christain Madsen, the invalid daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Anthony. ! Madsen. suffered severe body burns i Wednesday afternoon when her dress on her left shoulder and breast caught fire. When the mother, who had been absent for a few minutes, returned to the house, she found the clothing on her daughter smouldering. A dash of water soon extinguished the flames. It is thought that the invalid girl had gotten too close to the stove, which set her clothes smouldering, and it was only for the quick action of the mother that saved Miss Christain from burning to death. |
