thropists that distinguishes this age above
all previous eras in the worlds history"
Gen. Tom Thumb had made frequent
calls at police headquarters every day since
The FIRE to see if his trunk had not been
found. He would examine closely every
trunk recovered, but has failed to ind the
object of his search. His trunk contained
his overcoaf, clothing, jewelry aud collection
of old coins. The general was indignant
over the report that Officer OBrien rescued
him and his wife. Yesterday afternoon he
told Chief Wason that he rescued OBrien,
who might otherwise have perlshed. he ad-
mits that 0'Brien awakened him and his
wife, and remand in their room about ten
minutes while they were dressing, but that
when they left the room he found the lsdders
by which they made their escape, aud as he
commenced to descend the ladder told
O'Brien that he had better follow him. The
general and bis troupe lett the city this
morning, but not until he had warned the
police TO notify him Immediately il his
trunk was found.
The report sloat to the effect that
Landlord Artisdel had disappeared is
wholly untrue. He was found This morning
at Prof. Haskil's residence, still suffering
from the terrible shock, but not dangerous.
"What truth is there in the rumor that the
night Waterman was instructed that In case
Of fire the Office clerk was to be informed
of i. without regard to awakening the
guests" asked the reporter. Mr.. Artisdel
said, in an impressive, melancholy way,
that there was not one word of truth in it;
that all these stories ahoat concerning
him and his actions aud intentions were
done with view 10 injure him. At this
point the elder man said it was terrible that
people should tell such things; that it has
bad effect, and moreover il was done out OF
pure maliciousness, and that il did no good.
While the reporter was formulating the
next question the son urged his father to go
and finish his breakfast, saying that he was
not we'll, upon which the old gentleman dis
