WOMAN BADLY BURNED
Terrible Accident to Old Wo-
man Today.

Maria Woods, oolored. aged 10 years,
received injuries at her home on Chest
nut street, better known as Red Head
lane, this morning which will un-
doubtedly result in her death. With
every portion of her body, arms and
face terribly burned she was taken to
the Emergency Hospital, where every.
thing possible was done TO alleviate
her sufferings..
The old woman keeps house for her
daughter, TO whom the house was
given by Mrs. Mary Taylor, and was
alone at noon when the fire started.
It is presumed that spark from the
kitchen fire fell in a closet in which
she was working and set her as well
AS articles in the room afire. She ran
screaming from the room. mass OF
flames. Neighbors rushed TO her res
cue and several were slightly burned
in their effort to stay the flames. The
hose reel from the independent Hose
Company was sent TO the scene, but
the fire had been extinguished with
but little property loss.
The woman was i'll a deplorable
state, the flesh hanging from her body
in ribbons and so blinded that she
could not see. DIR. j. j. Murphy was
called and had the woman removed
to the hospital as quickly as possible.
There is every reason TO believe that
she cannot survive the day.

DEFAcING OF PROPERTY
An Inspector From Washington
Investigates.

Inspector Rogers, one of the special
officers connected with the supervising
architects Office in Washington. made
a careful inspection of the local post.
Office today in connection with num-
Der of acts of vandalism which bid
fair TO wreck the new building. As
the result of his Investigations there
is every reason 10 believe that il there
are any repetitions of the offense ar.
rests will be made.
According 20 the rules of the post
Office department the postoffice here
could be closed for the night after the
last mail is in and not again opened
till morning. This has not been done,
as 1t would cause great Inconvenience
10 tile many patrons who are provided
with private boxes. No money is al.
lowed for keeping a watchman and as
result the young hoodlums OF tue
city take advantage OF the "open
door policy and make the postoifice
a regular hangout. All of the wall
writing desks have either been de-
stroyed or so badly damaged as to
render them worthless. the woodwork
has been defaced and ink removed
from the postoffice and spilled on the
sidewalk outside.
Other acts of vandalism have been
committed which the postmaster has
been powerless to stop unless lac re-.
sorted to the drastic measure of clos
ing the Office at night. Ii was also
found by Inspector Rogers that there
was a bad leak in the roof of the build
ing and that the ceiling needed re-
pairing in several places. This he will
report to Washington and the repairs
will be made shortly.

WANDERED AWAY FROM HOME
TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE OF
MRS. DAEiIS.
Leaves Her Home Ard With Three
Children Passes The Night
at Eastport.

While suffering from an attack of
temporary alteration of mind which
was brought on by worry Mrs. Harry
Dahis. wife of a petty officer in the
navy, lett her home Saturday and with
her three children passed the night in
vacant house. While everything
possible is being done for the unfortu
nate woman and il is thought that
eventually she will recover her full
mental faculties, her condition at
present is very serious.
Her three little children, all of whom
are little more than infants, passed
terrible night aud when discovered
Yesterday were in serious condition
from exposure and lack of nourish-
ment. They are now being cared for
by sympathetic residents of Eastport
awaiting the return of Mr. Dahis from
Norfolk.
The Dahis family has resided for
some time on jefferson street and was
very happy. Some days ago Mr..
Dahis was sent to Norfolk on tem-
porary duty and was expected back
the latter part of this week. Mrs.
Dahis, with her three children, aged
two months two years and four years,
were lett at home. Saturday after
noon Mrs. Dahis. from worry and
other causes probably brought on by
the care of her three children, left the
house.
The children were taken with her.
the oldest one walking and the other
two being taken in small carriage
aud little wagon. She walked To
Eastport and after wandering around
for some time came To "a vacant house
owned by Mr.. &. \. Friemel With
the key TO her own house she managed
TO open the door ahd entered without
having been seen by any Of the neigh
bors.
Late yesterday morning Mr.. Friemel
walked over 20 Eastport and looked
in one of the windows of the house
He could see nothing, but heard the
pitiful cry of children. Opening a
door he entered the house and found
Mrs. Dahis aud the three children
Inr one of the rooms endeavoring to
keep warm by remaining close to-
gether.
The little ones were crying pitifully
for something TO eat and the baby
was so weak it could scarcely cry.
Mr.. Friemel started to question Mrs.
Dahis, but she talked in such ramb-
ling manner that it was plain TO be
seen she was not responsible. Mr..
Eriemel telephoned for Mr.. William
Duyal and secured the assistance OF
Mr.. j. w. Crockett.
They removed Mrs. Dahis and the
three children to the home of Mr.
Crockett, where everything possible
was done for their comfort. DR.. Louis
b. Henkel was summoned and after
examining Mrs Dahis, gave it as his
opinion that she was in very serious
condition, but that good care would
probably soon restore her health.
Mrs. Dahis was left in the care of
Mrs. Crockett and neighbor, who
are doing all that is possible for them.
Mr.. Dahis has been telegraphed for
and it is expected that he will reach
here today or tomorrow. 1t is expect
ed that Mrs. Dahis will be sent to a
baltimore hospital for a short time
upon the arrival of Mr.. Dahis.

/ SACRED CANTATA.
Sung at ST. Anne s
Joyous Music of Mid
Lent Sunday.

Possibly the largest congregation
that ever assembled at St Anne S
Church, the Rev. Joseph p. McComas,
rector, gathered there yesterday after
noon to participate in the services.
Tie church was crowded TO its ut
most capacity, every seat being oecn-
pied, and many people were standing
in the rear of the church. The con-
gregation included the members of
every church in the city, and large
representation from the Naval Acad-
emv. After a shortened service OF
Evening Prayer. conducted by the rec
tor, the vested choir sang the sacred
cantata "The Daughter of Jairus, y
which was the feature of the mid lent
service, at which time the music is al
ways more joyous than during the
penitential season.
AS a professional hymn the choir
sang No. $40, 'Savibur Blessed Sa-
yiour, Listen While We Sing. par
ticularly appropriate for the occasion.
The recessional was No. $50, Re-
joice Ye Pure In Heart. " At the close
of the cantata. the collects of Easter
and Ascension Day services were used,
with the Easter Benediction. The
work of the cantata was excellent, and
much credit is due the organist and
choirmaster, Mr.. George Thompson
Williams, who trained the voices and
has given much time and work to
teaching the chorus. The popular
chorus aud familiar one Awake.
Thou that Sleepest, was beautifully
sung. The altos throughout did fine
work and were highly commended.
Indeed all of the work was of O high
order. The solos of Mr.. o. j. Camp
bell were faultlessly sung. Three of
the m:dshipmen Of the Naval Academy
sang in the cantata. They are Mid
shipmen IL. ID. Burdick. III. b. Le-
bourgeois and w. X. Piersol. Mr..
Burdiek's tenor solos were we'll sung.
lie has light tenor voice of unusual
quality, and has had some experience
as a singer. Willie Jones, the soprano
soloist. sang we'll and his duet Love
Divine, with Midsnipman BuTdick
was beautiful The most difficult work
was the trio and chorus at the end,
by Fuge, "Amen and Hallelujah.
In this the voices were especially well
toned and even better than at tine first
of the cantata. Indeed the whole can
tata was remarkable for its rendition.
The congregation was attentive and
reverent throughout. Those who sang
were:
Sopranos Masters Albert Atwell
George Carlson, Clarence Feldmeyer,
Andreas Holley, Bernard Frantom,
RAYMOND HILBERT. Richard Hyde,
Charles Jones, William Jones, John
