W"H"H severely KWrht By Coal OF.
About half-past IL o'clock Yesterday
morning woman by the name Of Mrs.
Powers, residing on Fulton street, be-
tween st. Mary and st. Andrew. was
severely. burned about the body while
attempting to light a fire with some
coal Oil. 1t appears that she was in the
act OF preparing her husbands dinner :
she became impatient at not being able
to get the fire to burn, and used little
coal oil to start the blaze. Unfortunate-
ly. she had can which contained some
more OF the oil near the stove, which
lgnited. setting fire to her dress, and
she was severely burned before the
neighbors, who had been summoned by
her loud screams, arrived.

Confidence with wives.

VI
In connection with the reported
remark of II gentleman, VINO
said that he didn't believe the ladies he
met In Washington street knew that the
times arc dull, and that their husbands
arc having hard time to keep their
heads above water, the Boston journal
relates the following.
All husbands do not make their imam
cial affairs u topic OF conversation at
home, and some better halves know less
OF their own husband affairs than they
do of their neighbors'. Some weeks
since n lady was informed of her hus-
bands suspension by reading an an
uouncement In a paper which she acct
dentally took up I'm u store while wait
ing to have an order filed. Whether 1t
was pride or fear that prompted the Sc
crecv cannot be stated. but what can be
expected Of wives in the way of true
economy II they are only silent part
ners in the matrimonial copartnership?
In 1867 large jewelry firm sold acostly
set of iewelry TO lady. The firm knew
that her husband was in failing condi-
ton. but the lady had been a long and
profitable customer. When the partner
ordered the clerk not to charge the set
which had been delivered, but TO make
n memorandum on the blotter he paid
the lady's integrity u high compliment.
When the husband failed the jewelry
came back with note couched in such
terms that the dealer only regretted
thata gift of the set would be construed
as an insult
