'- A few minutes put one o'clock, yes terday a lira alarm wu teat la from box l-whlcu is i the lot factory. The fire bell ring end It sounded like sH the whistles ia town began to blow. The fire was in a small dwelling on Griffith street, jurt In front of the Knit ting Kill, owned by Mr J M Harrison and occupied by Alfred Gaskins, a ool oied man. The fire had gained consider able headway before any alarm wet made and the building was badly burned, Borne colored men who were working on a roof nearby said that they saw the place on Hemes in the kitchen but tap posing that It wu censed by the persons In the house, and therefore they paid no attention to it Soon,- however, lhey noticed smoke issuing from the windows and then It was that the alarm was tent In. The fire department responded at onee and toon had the blaze ander 'con trot Those who srjrlred on the same on the scene of confl tgrattonearly remarked the strong odor -of keroseno; 'and observed that" the Interior burned as though it wu made of straw. The occupants of the house lost everything they hd, u hone of thejThs Lantern Carnlral is an absorbing family were at home. Their loss con listed entirely of house furniture, but It wu a total loss. C The building belonged, as tefore sta ted, to Jamu M Harrison and the dam sgs was estimated to be about $300 with $150 Insurance. About the time the fury of the fire wu curbed it wu discovered that woman wu In the upper story of the house. The water wu out oft and sev era! men went to the rescue, but itwu only to drag forth a charred and blacken ed corpse. Someone In the orowd stated that the body was that of Mrs Mstllda Mahler, a white woman, and that aha had been seen at the window Just a fsw minutes before the alarm wu made, talking to a colored woman across the street The Identity of the oorpse wu thus estab lished. rhe body wu lifted through a win dow and taken to a stoop near by, and the coroner notified. He came and deemed an Inquest "unnecessary, so the lady wm turned over to an undertaker Mrs Mahler's actions have been a mat ter of comment for some time and It wu thought that shs wu more orleuaber rated, mentally. Tor sever al months she has been a frequent visitor at the colored peoples houses on Griffith street, until several families had beoont tired of her, and furthermore afraid to harbor her lest something wrong be fall. The truth of It was, she had outstayed her welcome all around and had begun to grow despondent Testerdsy rooming It Is said that the wu heard to eay that she "had -rather he dead, and la heU, than to oontlnue te Uve u she wu Bring." It wu only a short time after that before the fire oc cured. It Is a matter of conjeoture whether the woman committed suicide orwheth er her death wu accidental. The lady wu, first seen sitting erect In a rooking ohair but a stream of water striking her just at that moment she fen forward and remained In that position until taken up. ' The theory sooepted is that shs mast have been unoonaoious at Us time the fire reached her, otherwise would have made an attempt to escape. In six feet of where she wu sitting wu an open wlndyw and about ths same dls tsnoewuthe stairway, so there wu nothing at all to prevent her getting out, The ess looks Ilk oa of suicide, aad whether th uafortunate woman took a . dose and then act fire to the building orBot will probably sever known. -: w V; .'' ' Various rumors Vegan to bs circulated after Ihe'flr concerning ths, details of It. Some said that it originated 1n the kitchen, Others that It began upstairs sad so on, to th confusion of the pab lie At but s talt wm started that s col ored man wu sees getting out of an up stairs window of th hoou Justs few minutes before the fire and It went oa uatil excitement enough' wu aroused so that the Coroner thought best to sum oa Jury of InqoeeU ' , : , ' ' Coroner B D T Jones impanelled Jury to enquire upon the manner of Mrs Mahler' deathut the deliberations were postponed until Monday morning, pending th result of th autopsy which were conducted bst night by Drs'Jones andBhem. ,, v ' The funeral service of Mrs Mahler will be conducted this morning , hi 10 o'clock at Cedar Grove Cemetery by Rev O T Adams. - ' ; - - - Herdunu Association. .
