THE SLIPPER THROWN WITH ILI-EFFECT-In
the vicinity of Apex, few days ago, there was
grand wedding among the colored folks. After
the ceremony had been concluded in handsome
style, the groom, who resided in another part of
the country, put his bride in a wagon, and pre-
pared to take her to his home. At this stage of
the proceedings. a darkey. who had Travelled,
customs Of elegant white folks, stated that it
was always the style to throw shoes after the
bride as she was driven Off. The idea took i'm
mensely. AS the happy couple moved away
from the door the darkies jerked Off their shoes
and hurled them at the vehicle. One darkey,
who was the pOSSesSor of a No. 10 foot threw a
shoe with too uneIring aim. The great missile
flew through the air and, striking the brides
skull. knocked her senseless in the bottom OF
the wagon. The groom jumped out and gave

HIS FIRST APPEARANCE IN AN ELEvAToR.-A
few days ago man named Joseph Lacey from
Merrimac Point, ILL.,, visited the st. Louis Re-
publican office to see the sights. He happened
it was. The boy started the machine, and Mr..
Lacey went wild with fright. He yelled for
police struck violent blow at the elevator
boy, and then made jump and tried to break
which had just been reached. He fell, and his
head projected just over the edge OF the platform
In another instant he would have been be-
headed but for the presence of mind OF the boy,
who reversed the engine just as Lacey's neck
began to squeeze. The car moved back down.
and as soon as Lacey caught sight of the glass
entrance door on the first floor he dashed head
foremost through it, taking glass and sash with
him. Strange enough, he was not hurt in the
debris. and, getting UP. he dashed out ON the
street and ran westward.
