During the night she managea to get out of tue house and escaped some distance, when he caught her and forced her to return, dragging her by the hair. Upon arriving at the house he struck her on the head with a chair and otherwise brutally assailed her. He left her in an unconscious con- dition, escaping from the neighborhood at s:iu- Tise, and was seen to come towards this city. AU an early hour ryesterday morning the con} tion of Mrs. Tschiffely was discovered and an alarm sent out.

It was only after close questioning that the re of the assault could be obtained from Mrs. Tschiffely, as her sufferings precluded any connected narrative. From her statements, however, tt 1s learned that her husband was compelled to leave home‘several days ago ow- ing to business which necessitated his presence @ southern county of the state. She was seated by her dining-room table Saturday night about 10 o'clock engaged {n some fancy work, When she was suddenly seized from belind by Diggs, who had entered steaithily.

Mr. F. A. Tschiffely, the father-in-law of th victim, arrived here last evening from Rock- ville and related the details of the hormble at- fair to Detectives McDevitt and Acton. He says that Diggs, after committing the crime, piun- dered the house and broke opn several trdaks, Searching for money, but did not succeed th nding any. After leaving the house his course lay across a plowed field, and when the first Party of pursuers started after him his foot- | prints were clearly discernable. Afterwards they were lost in a stubble fleld, but near Gaithersburg they were found again, as he had to go through another plowed field.’ The hus- band of the lady arrived home late last evening, and was nearly distracted when he learned oi What had occurred during lis absence. Diggs the rator of the outrage, had been in emp! pee five months, and clatmed to be from Port Tobacco, Md.

Studying the matter over, she jumped to the conclusion that what she had read cerning the mischief-making properties of the tomato must be true, ea} ag her husban who Was very free in use of tomatoes in their seasoy ia a trouble with his teeth. She observed andshe thought the acia of the bably went too far and acted upon the enamel of the teeth. But when the boy, then fourteen years Old, went toa dentist to have his teeth filled. Lo! there was no filling to be “Your boy has a splendid set of teeth,” the eg Aad the mother. “There is not a em, that the teeth were better than they would have been if the owner of them had munched candy and pickles, as children usually do. “They must be cleaned, and that without de- lay,” he said. Sd the tartar which had gathered and crusted lually at the crown of the teeth was removed by the dentist, and with it oll ap- earances of decayed teeth. Now the boy a8 nothing to do but to keep his teeth in orcer to avoid dentistry bills in future. The younger children are warned to aviod the older brother's trouble by the dally use of tooth brushes, From their father’s case they learn to avoid the opposite extreme. His teeth are hopelesaly discolored, and a few are habitu- ally loose, but the useful tomato is no longer sus- pected as the cause, He had an opportunity to read some in a work on Dentistry, and came to the conclusion that hard “scouring” of his teeth wtth tty substal when he was a young man, bad worn away the bard enamel of his teeth so that the strong coffee he drank (during his soldier life especial uy) penetrate and per- manently colored his teeth.

The dentist has ir tools for removing tartar crust, but the yellow deposit on children’s teeth can be cleaned away as the dentist does {t, by any one. ‘Take finely powdered pumice stone and a little clean soft pine stick to rub with.

It is well to use @ little fine clean soap occassionally for cleaning the but plenty of pure Water (a little warm in the cold weather) will usually suffice for cleansing the teeth of persons of good dietetic habits. To Tnake good teeth in the first place, beginning when we can begin, and allowing for “ancestry,” the mother should eat plain and nutritious food, a varied diet well supplied with bone material, as the grains are When it is not bolted or sifted out, and lean meat For young children milk should be ed, and Graham and oatmeal also.— American Agricniiurist, SEA Lions ar LaRGE.—There was great con- sternation at Coney Island Friday Pee ee bathers, Eight sea Hons, who have been floundering in the aquarium at man’s pier, yt loose and madea for Sue ata it so effectually that there was a regu and people were afraid to venture into Pie water vo any greatextent.
