Schleswig, lost his life Friday noon in a tumble in front of 
Zillmann’s Store in Rockville.  Barth had stopped by Stange 
a farmer in the neighborhood of Rockville who is Treasurer 
of Schleswig, and paid his taxes.  On his was home he saw 
Schreiner’s Beer wagon in front of the Store and Saloon and 
hurried over there in order to ride home with it. Peter Klauck, 
the beer delivery man was willing to take him along to his farm 
which lies between Rockville and Kiel, but Barth had a small 
errand to do by Henry Stoll which is right near the Zillmann 
place.  Barth had hardly gotten on the street when he stumbled 
and broke his neck. The deceased was Chairman of Town Schleswig

MINNA BARTHEL   cemetery #14

MRS. J. BARTELS OF CLEVELAND IS THE VICTIM
Threw Carpet Over Smoking Kitchen Oil Stove Which Exploded, Ignited Clothes
Mrs. John Bartels of Cleveland, a mother of three small children, was burned
to death yesterday at the family home there when an oil stove which she had
been using and which did not burn well, exploded, igniting her clothing. Mrs.
Bartels instead of attempting to extinguish the flames which were rapidly
enveloping her form, rushed to the second floor of her home where her youngest
child lay asleep. She was fearful that the house would burn down and thinking
more of her babe than of herself, she carried the child to safety outside the
house and then screamed to neighbors for aid. When the neighbors came she had
been burned beyond all hope of recovery, every stitch of her clothing having
been burned from her body, nothing but her shoes remaining on her feet.
Neighbors found her lying on the ground, moaning in death agonies. She died
at 5:30 o'clock yesterday afternoon, a matter of four hours after the accident
occurred.
Rug on Stove Tells Tale.
Mrs. Bartels, according to her husband who conducts the Manitowoc Storage
Battery company on York street, had been using the kitchen oil stove which 
did not burn well. A rug which was found to have been thrown over the stove 
was mute evidence of what had occurred. Mrs. Bartels had turned the stove
down as far as possible when it continued smoking. Then, to prevent the room
from filling with kerosene fumes, she threw a rag carpet from the floor over
the stove. The stove exploded at this juncture, the flames licking up from
beneath the rug and igniting her clothing as she stood nearby.
Her husband stated today that he had left the home for his business in
Manitowoc and that he presumed the stove exploded shortly after his leaving
or at about 2 o'clock.
Sacrificed Self.
Mrs. Bartels was 35 years of age. Her tragic death came as a shock to the
neighborhood. Her mother love which compelled her to sacrifice herself for
the life of one of her children will live long in the memory of the community
and will be told and retold to children as a shining example of a great and
undying love in which the greatest sacrifice was unhesitatingly made.
Mrs. Bartels is survived by her husband and the three children, Violet, 12,
Ruhle 8 and Elizabeth 4. It was Elizabeth whom the mother carried from the
second floor where she was sleeping to safety outside the house.
She is also survived by her sisters Mrs. Elizabeth Arahando, Abbotsford, 
Mrs. Lydia Tutloff, Curtis; Mrs. Thelma Culbertson, Greenleaf and Mrs. Alvina
Siebert of Appleton, also one brother George of Abbotsford.
The funeral will be held tomorrow afternoon at Cleveland, the Rev. Springling
to perform the last sad rites.
