A FATAL BURN.
A Lady's Clothes Catch Fire from a Fire
Cracker, Causing Her Death.

BosroN, July 6.
While Miss Bessie Hepks, daughter of
Gen. E. W. HeBks,w was walking with friend
on Brattle street. Cambridge, Saturday, her
friend noticed that the back portion of her
dress, which was of light material, had taken
fire and called her attention to it.
As soon as Miss Henks saw the flames she
rushed across the street and endeavored to
enter a house on the opposite side. Finding
the door locked, however, she ran for the
next house, climbing over the fence in her
frantic haste. and when over her strength
failed and she was unable to go further
The whole affair, which did not last over
a minute, was witnessed by two gentlemen
living near BY, who Immediately rushed to
her assistance, and by wrapping her in their
coats and rolling her in the grass, managed
finally to extinguish the flames, but not until
she was horribly burned so that she died from
the effects.
Her dress is supposed to have caught fire
from a smouldering fire cracker lying on the
sidewalk. Miss Henks was about 20 years
old and had just completed her first year of
studies at Harvard Annex.

GEN. GRANT.
He Passes the Evening Very Pleasantly
With His Family and Retires at Ten
O'Clock.

MT. MCGREGoR, July 6.
At IL o'clock last night Gen. Grant was
asleep. He was partially awake at o'clock
this morning, and fully so at go, when the
doctor attended him to clear his throat and
administer food. When the physician had
finished he asked the general how he felt, and
the reply written upon his pad was as fol-
lows:
II think quite we'll, doctor. When l got
awake half an hour ago, did not feel in the
least degree sleepy, and feared nv nights
sleep was over, but was asleep in minute
or two, and feel now as if l could hardly
keep awake long enough to take food
From this time to $50 this morning, the
General slept, after which he again took food,
had his throat cleaned, and was awake until
about when he dozed again as he has lately
done through the forenoon. About o'clock
the General wrote an answer to question
as to his condition:
Possibly stronger, but not so well rested
as usually am"
The day has been spent by the General in
doors. At o'clock DR.. Douglass stated that
the patient had been quiet during the morn
ing and afternoon, but had experienced lit
tie more than usual pain.
Tom Ochiltree was the guest of the family
at lunch.
The General passed the evening until ten
o'clock very pleasantly with his family in
the cottage parlor. At that hour he retired
to his room and was put to bed soon after.
DIR. Douglass said the increased pain of the
forenoon was not due so much to the increase
of liberation az pressure on the nerves. The
pain this evening was not unusually severe
and the indications for a quiet night were as
good as on any evening recently.

The Anamite Garrison Repulsed by
Gen. COurcy at Hue.

PARIS, July 6.
Gen. Courcv telegraphs from Hue that the
night after his arrival at that place the Ana
mite garrison made an unexpected attack upon
his forces, but were repulsed. The French
commander is taking necessary measures to
repulse any further assault and no uneasi-
ness is felt as to the safety of the command.
Gen. Courcy further telegrsphs from Hue
in regard to the attack made on him by the
Anamite garrison the night after his arrival
at the capital. He gives the losses in killed
and wounded of both sides as follows French
60, Anamte 1900. NJ. De Precinct, minister
for foreign affairs, has ordered Gen. Councy
to exact from the government immediate
reparation for the attack.
LATER-A despatch Just received from
Gen. Councy says the Anamites at Hue are
preparing to make fresh attack on his posi-
ton. The General expresses confidence in
his ability to hold out against the Anamites
until reinforced.
Gen. Courcy's reply was as follows:
Hue, July 8, IL A. NJ.
The citadel Is in our possession with 100
cannon. The troops behaved splendidly ard
have full confidence in them, Our losses
were considerable. The annamite attack
commenced at / o'clock this morning, stimuli
taneously against the part of the citadel oc-
cupied by us and the legation. The assail-
ants numbered 10000. They burned the
straw backs with rockets. The soldiers ef-
fects were burned but the ammunition and
provisions are safe. The legation was rid

sary dispositions for repulsing another at

A WATERSPOUT.
Carries a Freight Train From the Track
Two Hundred Feet.

SAN ANTONIO, July 5.
Yesterday near Walton, $50 miles west of
San Antonio, Texas, an east bound freight
train was struck by a waterspout. The engi-
neer saw the waterspout approaching. 1t was
bounding along like a rubber ball tearing up
everything in its way. He reversed the train
to avoid the waterspout, the course of which
was tortuous with an inclination toward
rotary motion. just before it reached the
line of road it changed its direction and
rushed along parallel to the track with fright
full speed. When opposite the train it burst,
deluging the engineer, fireman and brakemen
who abandoned the train and climbed some
trees TO avoid the stream of the water, which
was fully feet high and about 100 feet wide.
The locomotive and fourteen cars we're lifted
bodily and carried 200 feet from the track
while the roadbed was completely obliterated.
No one was hurt The extent of the damage
has not been ascertained. Through trains
west OF San Antonio on the Sunset road have
been abandoned. The road bed and q num-
Der of bridges have been washed away by re-
cent heavy rains.

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
Roman Nose Predicts an Indian War.

LEvENwoRIH, Kan, July ).
A brief interview has been obtained at
Leveuworth, Kansas, with Roman Nose, a
renegade Sioux, who has cast his lot with the
Chevennes, and has apparently devoted all
his energies to make trouble. He possesses
considerable following among the Cheyennes
and has led several raid. on the cattle of
companies which have leased the grazing
land from the Cheyennes and Arrapahoes.
His complaint are chiefly against the cattle
which, he asserts. have fenced in
much of the best hunting ground and forced
the Indians to tramp over sterile plains in
search of game. He claims that the pay
meats made by the cattle companies to the
Chevennes and Arrapahoes are not fairly
divided, aud the cattle turned over to the
Indians and branded to denote their owner
shin are 'gobbled' by bigger chiefs to the ex-
clusion of the lesser ones. He believes that
before long there will be a general Indian war
and that the Indians might as well die fight
ing as TO be driven about and harrassed and
starved by white men. War, said he,
..will begin with the Cheyennes and Arraps-
hoes. and then the Comsnches, kiowas and
other tribes will join them and fight even to
