There is now in this city colorcd
girl sixteen years Of age, quite intelli-
gent, and consistent in her story, who
states that she is an escaped Cuban
slave. She represents that she has
been twice TO Paris, France, with her
mistress, Mrs. Ward Of Cuba, once
toEgypt, twice to Philadelphia. one Of
which times was to attend the Centcn-
nial, twice to San Francisco, once to
the City OF Mexico, and once to New
Orleans, thence TO Nashville TO the
centennial of that city, where she made
her escape and has since been free.
She says her name is Maggie Brooks;
that her mother was an American

this girl attracted general attention.
She claims that her skill in laucy

been the cause OF her mistress taking
her to these sevclal International ex-
hibilions, where her work was placed
on display. She speaks Spanish

Something New in Roses.
Roy.

A Hartford young man, says the
Hartford Couran;, boarded horse
car the other day with bunch of
three roses. One was white, one
green, and one Of a delicate flesh-col
ored tint. These flowers attracted the
attention ofthc passengers. both ladies
and gentlemen. One lady remarked
that she had seen the buds of the
green rose, and another said sho had
seen the rose itself, bu, had never seen
any so perfect and lovely as this one.
The flesh colored one was also conf
mented on and praised. Finally the
young man volunteered the informa-
ton that all we're white in the morn
ing. and that the coloring was done
by putting tho stem OF one into green
ink, and the other into red ink. AL;
though the leaves were beautifully
colorcd, the coloring would not rub off
but it seemed as il nature had done
the work. 1t only required ten min
utes to change the color.
