Bears the The Kind You Have Always Bought ignat a A Child's Awful Death. A telegram to the Chronicle from Philadelphia, Pa, says: Walter Bush, the 9 year-old son of Robert L Bush of St Louis, met with an awful death Wedoesday night at the residence of Amos Mc- Hugb, the child’s grandfather. Little Walter was electrocuted on the second-story ledge of the house in the plain view of nearly 2,000 persons. A family gathering was in pro gress, and while the happy relatives unconsciously laughed and sang the litle boy, pet of the family and neighborhood, hung across the elec tric wire outside the window and slowly died from the effects of the subtle fluid. Not until the attention of those within were attracted by sheuts from awe stricken spectators on the street was the awful truth known. It was while the merrymaking was atits height that Walter slipped away and climbed out the win- dow overlooking the street. Ba- neath the child, on the sidewalk, stood a fruit stand. The child was leaning out, looking at the fruit. The wire furnishing the lights for the house ran down the side. Walter took hold of it with his left hand at a place where it was uninsulated. The shock swung the child clear from the building, and unable to let go, he hung suspended, flames darting from every portion of his body. He gave twoor three agonizing cries and all was over. The boy and his mother bad been in Philadelphia six weeks. Cervera’s Battle Report. Washington, D.
