BABY IS FATALLY BURNED.
Little One Played With Fire While
Mother Was Out.
Otto F. Muehle, the 22-months-old son of Oscar M. Muehle, was fatally burned yesterday afternoon at the family home, 1511 Carrington avenue.
The mother was alone in the house with the child and left him sitting by the stove for a moment while she went out into the yard. The little one began playing with the fire, using a stick and soon had his clothes ablaze. His screams attracted the mother and she smothered the flames but not before the child had been so badly burned that he died five hours later.
Funeral services will be held from the home this afternoon at 2 o'clock. Burial will be in Mount Washington cemetery.
