Jefferson. Ca, Jan. 27.-Fred oliver.
q negro about 20 years old, is in Jail
here. charged with having attempted
a. criminal assault upon a young lady
of about Is years and member of
one of the most prominent families in

The attempt was made Saturday
night at about 8 o'clock. The intend
ed victim, with her little sister, was
returning home from the house OF a
friend locate6 Just across the street
from her own home. When within a
very short distance of her door she
was approached by a negro man who
attempted to lay his hands upon her.
She screamed and broke away from
the negro's grasp. He fell, but got
up and made second attempt, his
grasp again being thrown of by the
girl, who then escaped to her home.
The negro was strongly under the in
fiuence of drink and twice fell to the
ground during the scuffle that ensued.
He also had a revolver, which was
dropped in the mud.
The young lady. in the darkness,
could not make out the features of
her assailant we'll enough for the pur-
pose of Identification. AS soon, how
ever, as the incident had become
known here all eyes were kept alert
for any negro whose actions might
tend to fasten suspicion upon him.
Oliver was noticed to pass the post
Office several times, and in the light it
was seen that his clothing was COW
cred in places with mud. The negro
was taken in custody by Marshal ]. j.
Pettijohn. Upon being searched after
arrest a revolver was found concealed
upon the negro, the weapon on enc
side being covered with mud.
The negro was taken to the scene
of the attempted assault and the re-
volver placed in the imprint on the
ground where the revolver was seen to
drop by the young lady. divers weap.
on fitted exactly into the impression
made in the ground.
The evidence in the case. while only
circumstantial, is believed to form an
indisputable chain TO surround Oliver.

EXTERNAL USE OF OLIVE OIL.

One of the most wholesome and nu- tritious articles of diet is olive oil, and it is as beneficial for external as for internal use. It was the custom of the ancients, who were most luxurious in their bathing habits, to annoint the body with vegetable oils after the bath. Athletes and gladiators also annointed their bodies with oils. Roman athletes were in the habit of using the freshly expressed oil of the olive to give agility and suppleness to their limbs Some of the greatest beauties of whom his tory tells have also been prone to the use of oil. Mamade Recamer was in the habit of partaking freely of olive oil with her food, and using it also af- ter the bath. Her beautiful skin and clear complexion were doubtless due to this rather than to powders and paints. Tradition tells that both Cleopatha and Zenobia partook freely of olive oil and used oils after the bath. In the coun- tries where the olive fourishes, such as Italy, medical practitioners use the oil very freely for a host of ailments. It is maintained in the Levantine countries that the use of oil prevents rheumatism, gout and other kindred maladies which are aggravated by e6- ternal chills, and that the internal use of the oil removes the toxic condition of the blood which leads to the gener- ation of these maladies.-The Vegetar- ian.
