scheme on the Residents OF jackson
Ward with Great success.

A Richmond negro. who goes by the in
definite patronymic OF Smith. a few days
since worked a scheme which was origi-
nal IN its inception and quite successiui
In its operation.
In connection with the great force en-
ployed at the Hotel jefferson, a NUMBER
of skilled washerwomen are needed, ana
as fair prices are paid for the work done
for that magnificent hostelry. 1t Is ac-
counted a great honor to be numbered
among the ranks OF its employees.
SMITHS SCHEME.
Smith pondered over this idea for some
time, and finally came 10 the cohclus-on
that IL coIld be worked in such way
as 10 rebound greatly TO his own pron,'
although TO the detriment OF the woulu-

bright and carly one morning anu Nlsl,Su

fares Of Jackson ward.
Smith carried with him a small DVon,
and he hal a steTeOtyped way OF dedIlhb
with each case. When the occupant came
10 the door in answer 10 the knock he
would say
Good morning ] am Mr.. Smith. OF the
jefferson. We need a good many WdsheT-
women up there. and am getting w
list Of first-class workers. We pay - a
week. and YOU will only have TO WASH
the place.
In almost every instance the woman
would jump at the offer. Smith would
then say:

ting YOU this Job. The wagon VIII ne

You the articles to be washed this week
and will call for them Saturday II the
wagon should not get here by O'Clock

things TO you
Smith would then pocket his fifty cents,
enter the wOmans name In his Htie
book and take his departure.
noon he had a hundred names in his book
and so in his pocket. He then ceased MS
labors and disappeared.

Tn" man who answered the rings at the
servants door grew weary Of the name
Of Smith. and in his heart cursed the

For fully two hours. ii Is said. the sable
stream flowed 10 to the doors OF the
jefferson. ar1 the name o. Smith was
upon every lip. The last one TO arrive IN
quest of him was an old negro woman
carrying upon her head Il basket lar0e
enough for ali the washing OF the Jeffer-
son. She advanced to the door WIZ
brisk and confident steps and rang the
bell. The weary waiter opened the door
and glared out at her.

Sir,-The article in yOuI sunday issue,

state Of affairs.
1t is almost incredible that any large
number Of ministers should fail TO re-
turn any marriage license 10 the clerA.
when at the bottom of each license these
words are plainly printed: EVERY min
lister celebrating a marriage Is required
10 return within ten days to the clerk
who issues the marriage license a GER
tificate OF the fact and time and place
Of such marriage" 1And section 22J
Of the Code is quoted or cited as the
ground of such a reqUirement)
II any lack of record is ever discovered,
] think you will End that generally the
fault lies with the clerk and not with
the preacher.
But If the facts are as you give them
the matter is oil enough Importance 10
claim attention. The bond required OF
every minister is cor was when 1 qualified
TO perform marriages. sl5Oo. " any
