A story of personal heroism has coino tc
our knowledge which certainly deserves to 1m)
told, nlthongh, for excellent reasons which
cannot hero Iks htated, tho names nml precise
location cannot 1 given. The other day, on
ono of tho streets of Ilostou devoted to resi
dences, n young lady a cultured, wealthy
and "society" girl looking from n second
story front window, saw n servant girl rim
from tho opposite house, with her clothing
all ablaze. It was tho work of nn instant to
sclzo a largo sofn blanket and run down tho
stairs, out into tho stivct, jiursuo tho fright
ened girl, and wrap her in tho big red
blanket, llomemlierlng tho furious wind, it
was ono of thoso times when ft mluuto
counts. To tho young lady's bravery tho
poor girl owes her life, as tho street was
almost deserted, and investigation afterward
showed that tho clothing was nearly all
burned from her body. Of her skirts nothing
was loft hut tho bindings and a ragged
fringe; her hair was singed and tho exposed
flesh badly burned. It is a. pleasure to bo
nblo to say that tho young lady did net ro
cclvo tho least injury, If a slight strain of tho
wrist bo excepted. Huston Transcript.
