Under these flags, which have been in place for years, was found a thick bedding of eand, then broken stone, and under that a brick pavement, which was probably laid when the house was built. All this is now being torn up. The stone and brick will be broken up and relaid there as the foundation for the new cement and concrete floor. One of the White House legends is that Gen. Jackson's bathtub will be found, before the workmen get through digging, in a corner of thé corridor near the kitchen door. What particular necessity there ever existed for Gen. Jackson to have a tub in this spot does not seem clear, but that there is a cemented tub-shape cavity in this corner is among the reliable stories of the house. Evidently the name was given it in jest, and the real use of the tub was to kee butter and milk cool and nice for President Jackson's table. The t of the mansion is invested with as feresting stories, if they are a bit com- monplace, as any of the more aristocratic | quarters ‘above stairs, There is no doubt existing as to the location of Gen. Jackson's kitchen, as the old-time fireplace and the cavernous oven are still in place. The room adjoins the laundry and ironing room on the east side of the basement and now accom- modates the hydraulic pump that runs the ele- vator. What was President Grant's wine room, under the front portico, is now used asa lum: ber room. | What is now the paint shop would be invested with considerable old-time fancy and sentiment if it had been kept as it was in the y ancy as the milk house, where the butter was churned, &c- y is also a scene of desolatior with the ironing room and the laundress’ room adjoining. The floors are being torn up. First of all" there ‘was e ‘board floor, under that a flagging laid thickly in cement, and under that is revealed a sold brick pavement. Between all the floors the ravages made by rate and roaches displayed a condition of things anything but attractive. ihe roaches not having been disturbed for many yeurs had created a regular settlement, of which now only an unwholesome smell re- mains, and the feelings of the servants, who have been treading over them for years, was a laughable feature of the wholesale cleaning out. "lis no wonder,” said the laundress, “that I have had to ‘cover the floor with borax nightafter night.” The laundry business is, however, in active operation in the kitchen, and when it gets back to its old quarters the floor of the three rooms will be neatly tiled and 0 will the wall, six feet high, all around them, Upstairs the President's bedroom is being r papered, as it was the only room not touched st fall. From today the White House is closed to Visitors until the Ist of October ARMY ORDERS. ‘Transfers, Changes of Stations and Other Instructions to Many Officers. ‘The following transfers in the sixth infantry are ordered: Second Lieut.

Singular Adventure of = Couple Who Were ‘Out Driving. ‘THE MAN SENT IXTO THE CITY aT THE POINT oF A REVOLYER AND THE LADY SENT ROME OX AX ELECTRIC CAR — STORIES OF THE PARTIES INTERESTED. According to the statements of the two in- terested parties somebody made s very un- usual and curious assaulton Miss May Dabney and her escort, Mr. Thomas B. Durrett, in the Soldiers’ Home grounds Jast night. The mat- ter is still shrouded in considerable mystery, and the police are at work on the case. At any rate about 10:30 o'clock Inst night Mr. Thos. B. Durrett, who is an accident insurance agent of Richmond, Va., entered police head- quarters and made complaint that he had been assaulted in the Soldiers’ Home grounds earlier in the evening. Mr. Durrett related to Detective Mahon that earlier in the evening he had gone out riding in a buggy with Miss May Dabney; bad lost his way in the Soldiers’ Home grounds and had been overtaken by darkness, AMMAN AND A REVOLVER, As he was endeavoring to find the road out aman had sprung from the bushes and fired three shots from a revolver, causing his horse torun away and upsctting the buggy. The man had then ordered him at the pomt of the revolver to get on the horse and return to the city, saying he wasan officer and would take care of the lady. Mr. Durrett then mounted the horse and rode to police headquarters. Both Mr. Durrett and Misa Dabney at pres- ént live at 507 4th street northwest, where Mixs Dabney # sister bas a boarding house. Mr. Durrett resides in Richmond and is bere on business, while Miss Dabney is a native of Spottsylvania, Va., and up toa short time ago was a clerk in the census office, A better idea of the occurrence last night | can be gained from the experiences as related by the interested parties. ‘MR. DURRETT'S STORY. ToaSran reporter Mr. Durrett related his ond of the affair. Miss Dabney, he said, was an intimate friend of his family and was really con- sidered as one of the family. Yesterday even- ing he and Miss Dabney went for a drive and came through the Soldiers’ Home grounds. Returning he missed the rond and could not tell exactly how to get to the east gate. His horse was going along slowly | when another horse, and buggy him at a pretty rapid gait. Thinking the stranger would lead the way ont he fol- lowed. His horse, however, was unable to keep up and be stopped to listen for the sound. Finally he determined to go om and while driv- ing at a rather rapid rate of 5 near one of the bridges, aman rushed from the bushes, frightening his horse into rauning away. HIS HORSE RAN AWAY. He endeavored to control the animal, but the man, firing three shots from a revolver, till | further frightened the animal, and when a sharp turn in the road was reached the buggy upset and he was thrown out. After the buggy upsct, says Mr. Durrett, he held to the reins and was dragged fully 100. yards. When he had recovered his feet the cutive of the accident had reached the mpot and said, “1 want you. “Laaked him what he wanted me for,” said Mr. Durrett, “and he pointed his pistol’ at me and said he would take the lady to the home and hold her until [took the horse and buggy inand returned. He said further that if I came a step nearer he would shoot me. “I hud no pistol,” continued Mr. Dur- rett,” or I would have shot the man. As it was all I @ouid do was to get on the horse's back and return to the city. I did not remem- ber anything more until [got in front of the atent office and discovered that I was on the orse’s back and had the lap robe.” This morning Mr. Durrett went out to the scene of the accident, where he found his dam- aged buggy and whip on the roud. He also found his watch and chain on the ground where they had fallen. ‘MISS DABNEY'S VERSION. Miss Dabney is an attractivs looking young lady, and this morning when a Star reporter called was dressed becomingly in a tight-fitting black dress. “Iam so sorry such sensational reports have been published,” was Misx Dab- ney's opening. ‘No violenco whatever was offered me by the man at the Soldiers’ Home, and the only physical injury I sustained was being bruised slightly through the buggy up- setting. “You wish an account of the affair? Well, in my opinion, it was simply a case of robbery. Mr. Durrett, who isan old friend, and myself had driven’out to Brookland, and returning pated through the Soldiers’ ‘Home grounds it was becoming late and we were unable to find the road out. We determined to follow buggy which passed us, and while driving along quite rapidly a man sprang from the bushes and ran along by the side of the horse. He called for us to stop and at the same time fired off a revolver several times. Both Mr. Durrett and myself leaned forward to avoid any bullets, and immediately afterward the buggy was upset. I wasthrown completely out and Mr. Durrett was dragged on for some distance. Iarose, and seeing Mr. Durrett was struggling to quiet the horse walked back to pick up my hat. Returning found the man Who had frightened the horse. I did not hear ‘any of the conversation between Mr. Durrett and the man. THE MAN LIT A MATCH. “When I came up the mar lit a match and looked at me and then said that he was an offi cer and we had no business in the grounds at that hour. He told Mr. Durrett to get on the horse and return to the city and he would take charge of me. I said that I would prefer to return with Mr. Durrett, but he suid no, he would see that I was taken care of. I protested, but without avail. After Mr. Durrett left the men asked me what we were doing in the grounds. Isaid we were simply driving, and he replied that no one bad any business there after sundown, that he was an officer and pro- posed tolock me up. I asked him where his adge was and he said he was & watchman at the grounds and did not need a badge. He asked me if I hud any money, and said if I had he would take me to the cars. I gave him 10 and we walked around to the electric cars and came home. USED NO BAD LANGUAGE. “The man said very little tome on the road and used no bad language. He said he had mistaken me for another party, whom he was looking for, and described a buggy similar to ours, bat containing a very young man aud a lady dressed in white. ‘At the carhe simply said, ‘That's your car,’ and walked off. I think I would recognize ‘the man again, as I got quitea good look at him when he lit'the match. He was a respectable looking man, about thirty-five years of age, seeming! and with @ musteche. He was dressed in a dark suit with a sack coat.” Detective Mahon today made a trip to Sol- diers’ Home to look further into the matter and to find if any of the watchmen at the grounds know anything of the affair. piste aecierety A BRIDEGROOM IN JAIL.
