A family in the pretty suburb of Scottwood have
been in trouble with their hired girls They had
a Jewel of a German girl, who had come from the
East, and introduced many little ideas she had
learned there-among others to use Pearlne in
the laundry and "dust covers'' in the bedrooms.
But Louise got married, and the family has had a
series of incapables ever since. Driven to des-
peration, the mistress finally secured country
girl, and determined to train her. She proved of
Yankee descent, and was constantly experiment
ing, to find improved or chandler ways Of doing
her work. She was told of Louse's methods, and
declared she was "goin' ter see" what they were
worth In cooking she soon exeelled. She took
fancy to Pearline, and, aside from washing and
bleaching clothes, did wonders with it. She
washed the furniture with it, put it in the water
to sprinkle carpets before sweeping; used it to
shampoo the dog; dampened cloth with it to
rub the mantels, the book-covers, etc.; always had
it in her dishwater; washed blinds and wood
work with it in short cleaned everything, the
house included, with it. With Pearline for an ally,
she declares, "the cholera won't stand no show

Washington, making some purchases last
night, and left about o'clock to go to their
boat, which was lying at Wheatley's wharf
While in the store two other men, named
Charles Donaldson and David Slaton, were
talking about fighting but nothing was
thought of II when the other two men left
Lacey and Hurt were followed, however by
the other two men and dangerously injured
by them.
While they were passing through the
lumber yard, Just before getting to the
dock at which their vessel is lying, the
police report that they were waylaid by the
two men, Donaldson and Slaton. Siaton
used pick handle.and knocked Lacey down
with a terrible blow on the head, and
Donaldson with plank beat Hurt in a
frightful manner. Lacey received the worst
injuries, however, and the life was nearly
pounded out of him. DIR. Kleinschmidt
states to-day that Lacey's recovery is very
doubtful.
slaton has been arrested, but the other
man escaped.
