A day or two ago an old colored woman
named Charlotte Trice, who lives near the
corner of Wsldran avenue and the Louis

suited in death. She has been living i'll a
small, miserably FURNISHED room with her
two grandchildren; and her age is put down
at eighty-six. While she was standing with
her back TO the fire Tuesday mis- ght it is sup
posed the draft drew her clothing to the
flames, and thus she took fire. Her screams
brought aid to her. The woman who lives
in the next room was, at the time, gathering
firewood in the yard, and hearing the screams
for help she ran quickly to the
house and beheld the old woman In
flames. She ran Immediately for some
water, and, returning with a pail of it,
doused the burning woman with 1t and thus
extinguished the flames. The woman, being
old and very badly burned besides, took to
her bed and died the next day "wednesday.

sQUILTING PARTY
At the Residence of Mr. Napoleon HIil
Last n tight.

A delightful society event, recalling the
hearty pleasures OF the olden time, took
place at the residence of Mr.. Napoleon Hill,
on Court street, last night. The seekers of
social pleasure now have turned their backs
upon the stereotyped balls that have been
the rage for so long, and the informal pleas
ures Of the past are beginning TO have the
ascendency. The quilting party" at Mr..
Hills last night was proof of this. This
sort of social gathering was one OF the most
popular with our forefathers. The custom
then was for number OF the girls in the
neighborhood of the person giving the party
to assemble on invitation at the house and
there help in the quilting OF the quilt. This
done, an entertainment in the way OF supper
was provided, and sfterward the young men
would drop in, and mirth would reign un-
checked. Yesterday afternoon the following
twelve young ladies assembled at Mr.. Hills
residence and began quilting: Miss
Olivia Hill, Miss Mamie Polk, Miss Joy,
Miss Petit, Miss Louise Sneed, Miss Maud
Duvall, Miss Lizzie McClelland, Miss Vsrina
Davis, Miss Connie White, Miss Pet Gallo
way, Miss Jennie Frayser, and Miss Ed
monds. All of these young ladies were
dressed in the old-time style, their costumes
being very unique and pretty and evincing
the taste of each.
At or o'clock the guests arrived. The
quilt, which was OF beautiful blue satin, was
displayed in the parlor to the left of the hall
on frame, and it excited the admiration OF
all. Throughout the evenings entertainment
the ladies composing the quilting party
proper, worked on it occasionally. Every
thing was marked by the old style. Kegs of
cider were placed in the dining. room, and
the guests were free to drink of it as if it
were water. Ginger cake, too, was also plen-
teous. In addition to this, an elegant repast
was also set for the guests. Short
ly after they arrived, the "Old Nir-
vinia Reel" was danced by old and
young in the heartiest manner
possible. The refreshment room was then
opened and remained so during the entire
evening. "Od Dan Tucker" was then
danced, followed by several quadrilles. The
majority of those present were in full party
dress. Several prominent merchants and
their wives were present. Among the young
ladies present were the following: Miss
Lady Eusley, Miss Annie Meacham, Miss
Lottie McClelland, Miss Carrie Davis, Miss
Mamie Savage, Miss May Hill, Miss Rosa
Lee, Miss Spofford of New Orleans, Miss
Sallie Looney, Miss Walker, Miss Mamie

count of the lowering of rents under the
land law. The average reduction, so far,
amounts to twenty-five per cent, decrease
of twenty million dollars year in the in
