THE ANTE-BELLUM DAYS.
Reminder of Old Times Furnished in
Police Court.

Reminder of Old Times Furnished in
Police Court.
A reminder of the ante-belIum days and
the feeling of mutual regard which existed
between many of the slaves and their
masters was given in the Police Court to-
day when Mr.. F. S. Hill, former collector
of internal revenue for Maryland and the
District of Columbia, appeared before
Judge kfmball as counsel for Louisa
Brown, colored, who was charged with
failing to comply with the regulations of
the sewer department.
Mr.. Hill stated to Judge Kimball that he
became interested in the case because
Louisa was a slave in his fathers family
before the war. He said the old woman
had deposited 800 in the hands of a
party to have the very work done for not
doing which she was under arrest, and that,
IL necessary he would at once advance the
money required. A plumber who had COM
menced to do the work said he would ac-
cept Mr.. Hills statement that he would
be paid for finishing it, and the woman was
released ON her personal bonds.

ELECTRICITY IN THE FAMILY

ELECTRICITY IN THE FAMILY
Electricity is so readily utilized, whenever
1T is available, that it is becoming a servant
IN the affairs of daily life in so many diff
ferent ways and so insidiously that many
people are scarcely aware of its practical
uses in their own affairs
III IS in its application to the operation of
the family sewing machine that the familiar
use OF electricity is made practical in the
home The cost in the family of operating
a sewing machine by foot power is not
measured by dollars. but by the expendi-
ture of the vitality for which it calls and
whatever Of this cost can be saved is as de-
sirable, in fact, more important than
money saving For this purpose the
DlEHL ELECTRIC BALANCE-WHEEL
MOTOR is unique in being the only one
than can be applied directly to the driv-
Ing shaft of the machine, taking the place
of the balance wheel
1t is as easily handled as the ordinary
incandescent lamp and its consumption of
the electric current is the same costing
about l cent per hour. This motor can be
seen in practical operation every day at
THE SINGER MANUFACTURING COM
PANY'S shop. No. GIG 9th st. NV, where
all sewing machine users are cordially in
sited to call and examine it.
