The suffering occasioned by the yellow
fever IS still great. At New Orleans
the fever is still raging. 1t has spread
through the country and appeals for as
sistance are still sent out. The How
ards were generally literally supplied
with funds. Other associations which
extend their aid TO parties who arc suf-
fering for food and clothing have not
sufficient funds to meet the demands up
on them. Assistance is still extended
but not be the extent that it was some
weeks ago.

A TERRIBLE FIGHT WITH FIRE. -
On Saturday, at Woodbridge, Conn,
the clothing Of Mrs. Jacob Kunz caught
fire from the kitchen stove. she rush
ed to the barn in a frenzy, and rolling
about the floor set the hay and building
on fire. Shortly after she rushed into
the open air naked, her clothing having
been burned off and her body literally
roasted black. She jumped into a well
to ease her sullerings and was drowned,
though her burns were sufficiently
serleus to have caused her death. The
barn and wagon-bouse adjoining were
burned. The loss is estimated at sl.-
600, aud is covered by insurance. 81
