Father, Mother and Two Children Dead at Niagara tia11s--Gir1 May Die. Lucy ('aunpbell, daughter of C. F. Campbell, who made the gruesome dis- eowry, is a bright little girl of eleven. Her story is as follows: She was skating on the sidewalk and went to' her uncle's house to get warmed. She did not knock but went right in. When she opened the door of the living room she saw Mr. Harris sitting by the stove and her aunt and two cousins ly. ing on tho floor. All appeared to be asleep, but the older child, Myrtle, aged eight years. Wm groaning and gasping. The room was dense with some gas. The plneky little visitor seized her cousin Myrtle and dragged her out, in.. haling the fumes herself, which nearly overcame her. Dropping the unconscious child on the snow. she called a tele- phone lineman. who was working on the street. and he rushed into the house. He confirms the story of Lucy Camp- bell, and adds that one lid was off the stove, and the flame of the natural gas which was used for fuel was streaming up to the ceiling. Two of the three sections of the gas burners were open. By this time other persons came in. The fatal gas flame was shut off, the windows opened and the victims car- ried out. Dr. W. R. ()lnntead pronounced the fathor. mother and youngest child quite dead. and beyond any aid. Then the rescuers went into the next room and found the fourth victim. the boy. Arth. ur, thirteen years of age. He had been ill in bed. and had inhaled the fumes which came through the open door of the living room to where he was. Harris when found was sitting in a. chair close to the stove. He was part- ly dressed. He was head night furnace man at the works of the Niagara Falls Vvr:uillion Company. He usually rose at 4 o'cloek in the afternoon after sleep- ing all day. It appears that he must have sat down to enjoy the society of his wife and child before the evening meal. The mother and little five-year- old Gertrude had sat on the floor, while the child played with her toy dishes and an apple. Evidently the noxious, fumes of the burned gas collected in the close- ly shut room unnoticed by the oecu- pants. They grew drowsy and finally dropped into unconsciousness without realizing what was happening. There was no sign of struggle. but the moth.. er's head was turned towards the door, as if she sought for succor when it was too late. How it happened that the girl, Myrtle, did not share the fate of the rest of the family is not known. She is at the house of her uncle. C. F. Campbell, and the doctors say she will live, but she cannot speak yet.
