ATU 295. Bean (Mouse), Straw and Coal. A piece of coal and a straw escape from the fire in a stove. A bean escapes from a pot on top of the fire. They go on a journey. When they have to cross a river, the straw serves as a bridge. The coal burns the straw in two and both fall into the water and drown. The bean laughs at them until it bursts. Someone sews the bean together, and that is why beans have a black stripe.

41.4.1 [now ATU 295] Mouse bursts open when crossing a stream. Series of helpers similar to Z41.4. now ATU 295... unless there is a long series of helpers (?) this does not seem a likely tale type for me to use.
