Fannie White, a wash-woman at the Central hotel lives there. She and her daughter, Minnie, both left the house yesterday morning and went about their work. The house was locked and a little 5 year old girl, Amanda White, was left inside. From some cause or other the house caught fire from the inside. Within a few minutes the child was burned to a crisp. The firemen worked in earnest to save her alive, but in vain.
