SCENE IN A CHURCH.
A Child's Veil Catches Fire During Com
munion Service.


munion Service.
During the first communion service in the
Annunciation church yesterday morning
eight little girls were kneeling at the altar
rail with long white wells dmpng 6er their
heads and each held lighted candle, clasped
in both hands and a few inches from their
faces In moment of Observation-Disclosures
one of the little girls, Agnes Heaton, aged
10 years, drew the candle so close that the
veil ignited. In an instant the child's head
seemed enveloped in flames. Women and
children screamed in dismay, but three or
four women with more presence of mind
than the others rushed forward and snatched
the burning material from the child's body.
Rev. Naylon, the cuate, succeeded in allay-
ing the fears of the congregation and re-
storing order. The child sustained no other
injury than slight scorching of the hair
and the flames were so quickly extinguished
after the veil was torn off that no other
damage was done.
