Wood Restored.

Woodwork which has grown dull
with time and the accumulation of
dust may be restored by first cleaning
thoroughly with kerosene on a fan
mel cloth, says the Washington Her
aid. 1t should then be polished with
a mixture of two parts of turpentine
to one of linseed oil. Apply this with
a soft cloth and rub with flannel un-
til every trace Of the liquid seems to
have disappeared. Repeated applica-
tons and continued rubbing will give
a rich gloss to wood trim or mahog-
any furniture.

ROUNDED UP RAPIDLY

Yesterday afternoon while super
intending the repair work in pro-
gress on the FLORIDA House, Mr. w.
w. Woods of the Anderson Lumber
Company missed his gold watch,
which he had left in a pocket of his
vest hanging in one of the rooms
Upon inquiry among the .workmen
he learned that a strange negro had
been seen around the place. A de-
scriptfon of the negro was obtained
and within half an hour two of the
carpenters at work on the building
had rounded him up at the Seaboard
railroad yards, and found him with
the goods"
The negro was taken to the sher-
ms office where charges were en-
tered against him and he is now in
the county Jail awaiting trial. He
says his name is James Williams and
that he has been employed as sec
ton hand on the Seaboard between
Ocala and Wildwood, but this state
ment is hooked upon with the same
degree of trustfulness as the one
that he purchased Mr. Woods watch
from another negro.
Williams will probably have &
trial this afternoon
