CAUGHT FIRE
HAIRY ADAMS, COLORED, Sc
YERELY BURNED AND NAY DIE
Was Filling Coal Oil Tank at HI.
Snyder's Residence on Waco.

Miss Mary Adams, a colored domestic
girl, employed at the residence Of Dir. H.
Snyder, the North Main street tailor No.
Waco street, was horribly burned yester-
day afternoon while filling the tank Of
coal oil stove. Her injuries are SO Sc
we're that she may not survive. although
Dr. Fordyce, who is attending her at
| Wichita hospital. said last night that he
could not predict the exact extent of
her injuries until reaction set in.
When the accident occurred the only
occupants in the house besides the girl
was Mr.. Snyder's mother and his little
2-year-old child While filing the tank
some of the oil spilled on the girls cloth
ing, and while lighting the burners her
garments became ignited and she was
Immediately enveloped in flames. The girl
screamed at the top Of her voice and
rushed frantically through the dining
room to the parior. where Mrs. Snyder
was sitting with the child. Her frenzy
was so great that but for the resistance
offered she would have rushed into the
arts of Mrs. Snyder. who was holding
the child. The elder lady, fearing that
the little one would be burned. rushed
out of the house and the girls agonizing
cries attracted Ine nelSHDOfS, VINO linHle-
diately went to her rescue. By this time
she had followed Mrs. Snyder into the
yard. A blanket was quickly thrown over
the colored girl, and she was rolled on
the grass until the flames were eXtin-
guished. Afterwards she was removed to
Wichita hospital, where Dr. Fordyce ex-
amined the wounds. Her hair was burned
off, and her face. arms and lower limbs
We're also badly burned. The skin peeled
off from portions of her body, and in some
places the burns are quite deep but the
flesh is not so badly burned as was at
first thought, but there is not place
on her body that is not blistered. Last
night she had regained consciousness, but
she is not yet out of danger.
While going through the house the girl
caught some fine tapestry curtains on
fire, and the fire department was called
out. but the flames were extinguished
before any material damage was done
to the house. Miss Adams is the daugh-
ter of Mrs Ada Adams. who resides at
20S Waco She did not know of the acct
dent until late last night.
