CLEANING FLOORS WITH ORANGES
That's shocking, isn't it? But, then,
they have more of them than we do, for
it is in Jamaica that they make scrub
bling brushes of oranges, and you may
be sure it's true, because Mr.. Gosse saw
them do it. The floor was of hard, pol
ished W God, and, before the family were
out Of bed, two or three colored servants
scrubbed over the whole of it with sour
oranges, cut in halves. When the juice
was rubbed out of one piece, they would
take another, and so they used up big
trayful of them. A polish was put on
by rubbing with cocoanut husk, and the
floor looked as if it had been waxed.-

rate attempts to force his way through

political friends, but was prevented by
the watchfulness and strength of a men,
Der of the capitol police, Mr.. J. W.

known to Mr.. Lincoln and the faithful
policeman was made lieutenant of the
force 1t has since been discovered
that the man was j. Wilkes Booth, who
doubtless intended assassination then
and there. 1t has remained for demo-
cratic Congress to remove Mr.. Westfall
from his position and thus indirectly
express their lack of sympathy with the
patriotic sentiment which mourns the
martyr and abhors the assassin.

pie of Statesyille we're terribly shocked on
Friday afternoon BY the accidental shoot
ing Of Miss Leila Armfeld. daughter Of 1t.
Governor Arm6eld, and young lady "
bout nineteen years Of age. by her brother.
ltseems that the young man was making
an effort to extract . cartridge from pistol
when the former exploded. The ball
struck the young lady in ihe forehead,
Just above the left eye. entering the brain
aud producing mortal wound. AT 10
o'clock Friday evening she was still living,
but NO hops Of be. recovery were entertain
ed by the physicians. She has been eutire-
" unconscious since the occurrence. and
brain substance was constantly issuing
from the wound. The unfortunate brother,
who is scarcely over seventeen years Of age.
is wild with grief. The young lady Is .
most amiable aud lovely character. and is
the pride Of q fond and loving far:her's
heart. The occurrence is Que of the sad
dest ever recorded. and the sympathies Of
the entire community are thoroughly a.
