    DEATH CLAIMS BURNED CHILD
    Lillian, Three Year Old Daughter of
    H. L. Giles, Dies at L. D.  S. Hospital.
    Heroism of Little Sister
    Who Picks Up Blazing Infant and Submerges Her
    in Tub of Water Before Mother Arrives.
    	Lillian Giles, the 3-year-old child of H. L. Giles, who operates a store at 73 west Fifth South street, died at the Dr. Groves L. D. S. Hospital yesterday from the effects of burns.
    	Surrounding the story of the tragic affair is one of heroism on the part of the little sister of the infant.
    	As far as could be learned from the distracted family Lillian, together with her sister Margaret, who is 9 years of age, were alone in the house while the parents were waiting on customers in the store during the usual Saturday evening rush. Suddenly the mothers quick ears detected that all was not well in the house and she rushed across the lots attracted by the screams of the children. On entering she saw the child struggling in a tub of water into which she had been placed by Margaret.
    PLAYING WITH MATCHES
    	Investigation developed that in some manner or other the little one had secured some matches and the first thing her sister knew of the affair was when she saw the childs dress in a blaze. Without hesitating a moment she seized her sister, dragged her to a tub of water that was standing near and submerged her, putting out the flames.
    	Tenderly the little one was lifted up by her distracted mother, but it was apparent that she was badly burned from the knees up to the face. Dr. E. E. Wilcox was summoned and after a hasty examination the child was removed to the hospital, where she suffered until death put an end to her pain yesterday.
