Mrs. Harrison's Laudao,c Wlsh.

A lady who is quite intimate with
Mrs. Harrison says that her great
ambition is to have the projected
alterations to the White House COM
menced during her husbands term
OF Office. You would be astonished
to know" she says, ''how much Mrs.
Harrison is really interested IN the
matter. She has q great deal OF taste,
and would doubtless like to have the
opportunity Of exercising it in the
new arrangements for the Executive
Mansion. But it is not that pardon
able vanity which makes her so ear
nest in the matter. She really desires
to have the White House mnde a
creditable establishment to the coun-
Try, and one of which Americans can
be proud. as well as to have it made
habitable."

glass window in tho church which he
attended. The design was tho giving

God, and. appropriately enough, the
text under the picture was There is

placed in the church an old townsman

that this man had been recently de.

to see many defects IN the window.

about life in Jail. for men who have
been in there for little while seem to
leave it with regret and do not lose
their interest in what goes on there for
some time after they are released. Time
and again have noticed men who have
been confined for a few months come
back every day after their release and
stand at the door looking in. They
have no friends in there. unless they
made friends among the other prison.

speak with any one. They lean against
the grated door and look in. as if they
wished they were back. l really think
some Of them become attached to the
life, and one reason is that unless they
are men Of gentle feelings they do not
feel the shame OF their position as long
as they are inside, but when they como
out and meet other men they kno
they have the Jail stain on them aud

FREAKS OF THES
A Large Flock of Sheep AppareeA Blown
nnf into

Out into Space.
G. w. Doyle, of Smithtield. Henry
county, was in the city yeste' day,
and told of remarkable freaks per
formed by the tornado IN his neigh
borhood, for the truth OF which he
vouches. About one mile west Of
Eminence lives James Drane, Il pros
porous farmer. His farm WAS directly
in the path OF the tornado. 4 Mr..
MADDOX and child, who lived on the
place, were killed by i. ;;dling house,
aud Mr.. Danes residence was un-
rooted and his barns u: nolished.
But the most singular occurrence
WAS that a large flock oi sheep on the
farm was picked b,d:ly up by the
wind and blown away The sheep
were missed the day following the
sto,m and diligent search was made
for them all over the surrounding
country, but no trace of the animals
could be found. SO thorough was
the search that it left no doubt in the
minds of those engaged in it that the
sheep were actually blown out OF the
neighbcrlood.
A few miles further on from the
Drane farm a sink hole was found, III
tc which the tornado had disgorged
itself, but had evidently held on tc
it's mutton, as none of the sheep were
found in the hole Into this hole the
tornado had dropped a large quantity
of articles, some of which had Ger
tainly been brought long distance
as they We're unknown to the people
of that locality. The article attract
ing most attention was a large, ele-
gantly carved pulpit
None of the churches in that neigh
borhood had lost pulpit, and among
them all, such a fine one could not
have been found, even had the torna
do gone around and selected the best
Beside the pulpit was large quan
tity of bed clothing, mattresses
featherbeds, pillows comfortables
sheets. etc. The bulk was held down
by number OF tin roofs, which also
must have come o long way, as the
roofs of that section were made O.
