A WOMAN CRAZED BY GRIEF. An Incident of the Fearful Pitts burgh Explosion. T!i “ Whlow of Ocf of the I,ohg Kansan M norn Fires Her Dwelling— She and Four Children Burned to Death. Philadelphia Times. Pittsburg, Kan., Now 12.—i'Vnlay's mine disaster hail a terrible sequel Sun day night. Among the sixty victims who perished in the deadly shaft was Louis Berthuue, a brawny Frenchman. Sun day morning his remains were brought to the surface in a cage, and as the rough rescurers were laying them on the ground his wife, Maria, burst through the line of spectators, with a shriek, and fell pros trate beside the bleeding and mangled corpse?. Tender hands bore her to the lit tie hut-like home over the hill, and one of the physicians, who had been on guard at the mouth of the shaft since Saturday in the vain hope that some of the unfor tunate miners may yet be living, restor ed her to consciousness. W hen she awoke she was sullen and silent. Kindly neigh bors tried to solace her, but their words of sympathy fell on unappreciative ears. She neither evinced sorrow nor made re ply to anybody. Then the neighbors noticed that Mrs. Berthune’s eyes were strangely dilated, and that there was a suggestive blankness in them. The doc ,tor said her reason was gone. But as she was not violent and did not. evince a disposition to harm anybody she was left in the hut with her five children. The hitter, all unconscious of the tragedy which had made them fatherless and wrecked their mother’s mind, were romp ing over the rough pine floor, their child ish voices ringing gleefully through the lint. The neighbors went back to the shaft of death to watch the*, progress of the rescuers. Mrs. Berth line sat for hours staring blankly at thefloor. Her little one tugg ed frantically at the skirt of her dress, r<* peatedly called her name and tried other childish expedients to attract her atten tien. She did not seem to notice them. Her bereavement was so intense that she could think of nothing but the mangled body which was lying in the improvised morgue that vas hastily erected Satur day to shelter the victims of the mine. Toward dark, however, she seemed to re cover from the trance. Jumping from her chair she walked over to n rude bed, and, taking a sleeping infant in her arms, she pressed it close to her breast. The child awoke and screamed faintly, as if frightened at the maternal attention,but when it saw its mother’s face its fears seemed to vanish. It cooed joyfully and buried its pudgy fists in its mother's flow ing hair. Mrs. Berthuue then approach ed her other children and kissed them one by one, and in return they caressed her fondly. “Come with me,” she commanded, breaking her self-enforced silence for the first firne. She passed through the narrow door and the children toddled on behind. Up the side of the hill they all clambered. The younger of the four was helped by his mother and eldest sister, a pretty miss of 9 years. When they reached the brow of the hill Mrs. Berthuue struck off to the right, following a path which led direct to the morgue. The place was surrounded by grim-looking miners who were carrying lighted lanterns, and weep ing and hysterical women and children who were searching vainly for the re mains of loved ones. Such a picture of human misery as was presented to the poor woman and her children was calcu lated to make stouter hearts falter, but Mrs. Berthuue was apparently unmoved by it. Commanding her four elder chil- dren to remain*near the narrow entrance she went inside and picked her way cauti ously among the lifeless bodies until she reached that ot her husband. She knelt down beside it, removed a gunny sack that covered the blood-besmeared face, and then poised the infant so its innocent blue eyes could take in the revolting sight. The baby cooed and waved its little arms delightfully. Then the mother returned to her wait ingchildren outside the dead house. She led them into the grewsome place one by one,until all had seen the bloody features of their father, and then she led them home again. The first thing she did after she had marshaled them into the hut was to put them abed, the next to start a roaring fire in the stove. The infant and the three others next oldest,tired by their exertions, quickly went to sleep. But the eldest girl could notsieep. Her mother's strange behavior had frightened her, and in a vague wav she was sensible of the fact the poor, demented woman contem plated some fearful crime. Aside from her fear on that score, however, the sight she had witnessed at the morgue—her dead father’s mangled body, the rows ot corpses that lay stretched in the mud on either tide of it, and the heartrending anguish of women and children —had left such an impression on her mind that sleep was out of the question. So she lav perfectly still and watched her moth er, who was sitting close beside the stove, Mrs. Berthuue scarcely’ moved for ■ hree hours, and only once during that ime did she avert her eyes from the door. The first evidence of life she .-vinced was when she passed her hand • ver her face in a dazed fashion. The -otion seemed to arouse her, for she •u.nped to her feet and began to gestic ulate wildly. The girl's alarm increased but she remained perfectly quiet, believ ing that her mother's frenzy would soon pass away and that she would relapse into her trance-like condition again. But the woman momentarily seemed to grow wilder and uncontrollable, and instead of ceasing the motion of her arms increased. She continued the pan tomime for several minutes before she finally stopped, and then she walked over to the corner nearest the stove and ♦ picked up a coal-oil can, part of the i on tents of which she deliberately poured over the skirt of her dress. The remain der of the oil she emptied upon the bed where her children were sleeping peace fully, unconscious of threatened harm or danger. The eldest girl had viewed these prep arations with terror, and was preparing to spring from the oil-soaked bed and fly for life, when her mother lighted a piece of paper and deliberately applied the flame to her dress and threw the blazing remnant upon the bed. In an instant almost the whole interior of the hut was ablaze. The girl jumped from the bed and run for the half-open door. Her mother, whose dress was burning fiiercelv, caught her in her arms and tried to prevent her escape. The girl fought like a tigress for freedom, her struggles being strengthened by the death shrieks of the other children, who were writhing in the flames that were fast consuming them and the hut. Mrs. Berthuue passed her arms around the struggling child’s body, and, unmindful of the fire that was slowly broiling her own flesh, endeavored to hold her, but her strength soon gave way before the awful torture. The girl finally made one heroic effort to tear herself loose from the maniac, and succeeded. Released from the arms of her mother, the girl staggered through the door and fell headlong into a ditch, from which she was rescued a tew minutes later by a party of miners who were attracted to the Berthuue hut by the flames. The poor child was terribly burned and the doctors who first saw her said she could not survive the night, but when they began to treat her wounds they held out faint hopes of her recovery. The miners made a gallant effort to save the hut and inmates, but the tire had made so much progress that they were compelled to give up and stand by and watch it burn to the ground. When it was all consumed they raked through the glow ing embers until they found the charred bodies of the four children and Mrs. Ber thune. They were found huddled to gether. The bodies were carried to the dead house on the hill and laid beside the mangled corpse of the miner, whose bloody face was hidden under a gunny sack.
