In a Critical Condition.

Annie Carlmulm, the young girl em- ployed as a servant by ex-Alderman John M Champion, who was terribly burned at MT. Crampton's residence, 539 Orange street, by her clothes talk ing fire while ironing and was taken to the hospital, was last evening in a very critical condition with the chances much against her recovery. It was stated last evening that it was very doubtful if she would live the night out. Her sister was with her.
 Mrs. Crampton was nervously pros trated yesterday and fears were enter tained that she would have a serious attack of illness owing to the shock and excitement caused by the sad affair and the efforts to save the life of the un- fortunate girl. Mrs. Champions health has been quite delicate for some time time past.
