Adolph Greyser, young colored man, who
is rather intelligent, arrived In the city fresh
from Washington, d. O., about n month ago.
He came here to seek work, and soon found 1t
at the Black Diamond Steel Works. He was
not here long until he made the acquaintance
OF good-looking colored girl in the Twelfth
Ward. Adolph had winning way about him
that charmed the girl. He was n good talker
ALSO and succeeded in talking himself into
her good graces. Their friendship
soon ripened into love, and
about two weeks ago they went before minis.
ter who made them man and wife, 80 Adolph
was happy. He had only been In the city
about four weeks and not only found work but
a loving little wife. He was consequently as
merry and happy as marriage bell, but
It seems as though happiness was not des.
tined to last long. Adolph, II seems, had boon
breaker Of girls hearts In the capital
city, where wickedness Is said
to abound, and before his departure from the
city whore the wise heads OF the nation are wont
to gather each year and make laws he had
pledged his troth to one OF the gayest and
most refined dusky damsels OF that city. He
had promised her on leaving to come back and
make her his happy Wife. The name OF this
maiden Is Della Swarze. Della grew lonesome
packed up her baggage and purchased a ticket
| for this city, intending to Join him here and
share with him his cares In a strange city
among strange people. She arrived hero
yesterday morning and started out on n
| search for her lover, and she was successful,
as she encountered Dolph on Pom avenue.
She was overjoyed at the meeting, but not 80
| with him, as she was about tho last person In
| the world that he desired to encounter. Della
| noticed his embarrassment and wondered at
| it. but she did not wonder long, as she was
| Informed that her betrothed was now married
| man. Then there came change In her
| demeanor, instead OF being the loving little
girl Of yore. she was now an enemy
| and proposed to mako Dolph suffer-
| for all her trouble. He plead with
| her and said that he was sorry. He married.
| the girl because he had no home or friends
| here. He did not love her, but was true to his
| Della and would make amends by marrying
| her instanter. Della was not TO be overcome
| by this and spurned the ofrer. She then went
10 the ofiice OF Deputy Mayor Porter, whore she
lodged an Information againstAdolph for fornix
| ct Get Della Is n good-looking colorod girl. She
is also very Intelligent, having graduated at
one OF the best sominarles of Washington. She
| had her diploma with her, which she showed

| but he was not to be found, and has jumped
the town, leaving bolh his wife and sweetheart
| to mourn his loss. on tho advice OF tho squire

How to Treat Your Watch.

Wind 1t up at the same time every day,
Keep 1t in as even temperature as possible
Sudden transition from heat to cold may
cause the handspring TO break. Ifyou would
keep it clean never put it in any pocket ex-
cept one of leather. Those pocR cts which are
lined with clUth, cotton or calico, give by the
constant friction a certain fluff. which enters
most Watch Cases and makes its way to the
delicate parts OF the watch. See that the pock-
ct is turned and clean often, and take an old
linen handkerchief and wipe carefully all the
dust from under the backs, bezel and cap of
the case. But above all you must be sure
that the Case fits firmly and to be sure of this.
select one where the parts center, backs, cap,
&C., are each made from one piece Of metal.
The JAMES BOSS PATENT STIFFENEp OR
FILLED GOLD WATCH CASE is so made, and
not only does such O Watch Case become
stronger and fit more perfectly, butt enables
the manufacturer to turn and form three piec-
es of metal the outer ones being gold and he
inner one ofan inferior metal into shape for
the round parts. making to all appearances
and practical purposes just as good Watch
Case as the solid gold, at about one-half the
cost to the purchaser.
There are nearly one hundred thousand Of
these Watch Cases now carried, and their good
qualities are acknowledged by the same UNI
Der of happy possessers.
All Jewellers keep them also illustrated cat
alogues for gratuitious distribution.

ilv in this expression of the feelings
of the audience. Mr.. G.. H. Pritch-

showed what deep thought and study
he places upon this all-important
