W. Savage at Park City was found to be on fire, and presently it was known that her two boys were in the burning house. One, aged 13, was brought out alive, but so horribly burned that he died in a few hours. The remains of the other, charred beyond recognition, were found after the fire was put out. Mrs. Savage is so dazed by the calamity that she can give no account of the matter, but it is supposed she undertook to start a fire with kerosene and the usual explosion followed.
