4 Slick Scheme Worked BY q Moneyless
Beat to Secure Season at Saratoga
The Tale of Missing Trunk.

Slick Scheme Worked BY \ Moneyless
Beat to Secure Season at Saratoga
The Tale of a Missing Trunk.
HoNEsDALE, Pa, October 9.-Early
last summer Mrs. A. M. Lancaster, OF
Starrucca, this county, returned home
from trip to Boston and had her trunk
checked In that city to her destination.
When she arrived at her station and
presented the check for her trunk it
could not be found. : The trunk was
large and contained valuable wardrobe,
important papers and articles of great
value. The railroad authoriGes sent
tracers after the trunk. They fol.
lowed 1t as far as Albany, and
there all trace of it was lost. All
hope of finding the property was
finally abandoned. About the time
that Mrs. Lancaster's trunk was lost a
young man, dressed In the height of
fashion and giving the name of Clarence
De Puyster, of New York, became
guest of Saratoga hotel. His baggage
consisted of one very large trunk and
fine alligator-skin bag. AS the guest
was evidently one of the best, he was
not troubled with any reference to his
bill until near the close of the season.
His bill was presented. He took it to
his room to look it over. and that was
the last that any one in the hotel ever
saw of him. His trunk and bag were
found in his room. The trunk, on be-
ing opened, was found to be filed with
fine female wearing apparel, evidently
just as it had been put in the
trunk. Papers found showed plainly
that the trunk was not the property of
DePuyster, but that it belonged to Mrs.
A. M. Lancaster, of Starrucca. She was
communicated with and the story of the
lost trunk came out. 1t was forwarded
to her by express. Everything was in it
that she had put in it four months be-
fore in Boston, and had not been dis
turbed. The alligator bag was found to
belong to another person, and it was re-
turned to him. 1t is supposed that De-
uyster, or whoever 1t was, had man
aged to remove the check from the
trunk while it was being transferred
from one train to another at Albany, and
had it checked to Saratoga in order to
give him standing at the hotel, and
secure for him season of recreation at
the hotels expense.

MISSOURI STATE NEWS.
Carnival Week in St. Louis.


ST. LOUIS, October 10.-The week just
closed has been one of the most notable<in
the history of st. Louis The weather has
been all that could be desired, and the in
fiux of visitors correspondingly large, in
fact the facilities for their entert ainment
has been taxed to the utmost No one
has lacked for means of enjoyment, for
there has really been surfeit of enter.
tanning features. The great Fair, OF
course. has occupied a large share of the
attention Of the rural visitors, and it has
been fully worthy all they bestowed upon
it, for st. Louis never had a better fair in
her history. The improvements made in
the grounds and the increased facilities
for the care and exhibition of stock have
called forth many warm compliments,
while the new buildings for Individual
displays have added very much to the
general attractiveness of the grounds.
Very few who have been here have gone
away without paying visit to the Expo
sition, the attendance at which has been
something enormous, and, together with
the added attraction of Gilmore's Band
has evoked degree of enthusiasm for
S. Louis enterprise highly crafty
ing to its projectors. The grand illu-
mination of the principal streets of the
city, such as no other city in the land has
yet attempted, has been source of won
der and admiration, and the brilliant pa
geants which have paraded the streets for
four evenings, including the Yelled
Prophets; reception to the victorious
Brown Stocking Base Ball Club by the
athletic associations, assisted by the At.
chiscn Flambeau Club; the Trades Dis
play, escorted by tae military, the Topeka
and lastly the humorous cruise of the
Mackerel Brigade, have brought together
such crowds upon the streets as have
rarely been seen, even upon former sim
liar occasions, and have served to round
off each day in highly satisfactory man
ner. The theaters have all had good at
fractions add have done good business,
and the beautiful panoramic painting Of
the Siege of Paris has drawn thousands to
see that monster and graphic work of art,
the fame of which seems to have spread
all over the country. The only thing that
has occurred 10 mar the general festivities
of the week has been a rather untimely
strike of street-railway employees,
which put visitors to some incon.
vrnience, but which was generally
borne good-naturedly. Very little crime
has been reported, the police having been
unusually vigilant in their surveillance OF
suspicious characters. On the whole, st.
Louis feels proud of her success, and will
rest upon her laurels until the first week
in October comes again.

man Grove last August. The prisoner
led double life, that of a Christian, as
well as coun erfeiter. On the night OF
the arrest, he offered to show
the detective where his tools were
secreted. He supposed the officer
knew, and that it would be good thing
for him when brought into court to have
1t shown that he surrendered his imple-
ments. The officer, carrying lantern,
went into the woods skirting the town
with him, and in the shade of tree be-
meath q pile of leaves, discovered the
tools. The prisoner was convicted and
when arraigned for sentence fell IN At

worked with him several hours before he
could be removed. Sentence will be i'm

LONDON'S LOSS.

The Greatest Fire the Present Generation
ofLondoners Have Seen-Fifteen Million
Dollars Worth of Property Gone Up in
Smoke - The Disadvantages of Iron in
Large Buildings.
LONDON, October 8.-One of the most
disastrous CONGREGATIONS that has &C.
Cured in this city in a number of years
broke out at five O'Clock this morning in
the Charter House buildings, Aldersgate
Street, and is still burning though par
TALLY under control. Fire spread with
marvellous rapidity, and in less than four
hours after it had broken out thirteen of
the eight-story houses compris-
ing the property were destroyed.
The buildings were occupied by
stores, mostly of fancy goods
and toy emporlums. In one of the build
ings destroyed was located a Iage print
ing establishment. Another of the build
ings was occupied as a bank, but through
the strenuous efforts of the firemen, the
structure was saved from total destruc-
ton. The firemen experienced great
difficulty in rowing streams on the
upper stories because of lack of the
water pressure. Many of them had mar
row escapes from death from falling
walls, etc. 1t is estimated that the loss
will reach 3,00o,O 900.
LONDON, October 9.-The fire in AL
dersgate street yesterday morning,
which destroyed the Charter House
buildings, was the biggest confagration
which has occurred in London within
the memory of the present generation.
The flames spread with phenomenal rap
idity, and the firemen attributed this
fact to the excessive number of iron
girders and posts used in the chief
buildings. This iron work expanded and
twisted into all manner of shapes, open
ing great cracks in the floors and
walls, through which the flames
rushed furiouslY. Captain Shaw, the
chief officer of the fire brigade, is strong
ly opposed to the use of iron for archi-
tectural purposes, and is making
special report on yesterdays disaster,
with the view of urging builders to be
more sparing in the use of iron. The
origin of the fire is unknown. The row
was mostly occupied by fancy goods
dealers, furriers, toysters and print
ing offices. One bank was in the
building. This institution war the only
one that escaped being bufae<. completely
out. 1t was badly damaged, but not des-
troyed. The f1remen had great trouble
in getting the streams from the engines to
play on the upper stories of the build.

Big Thursday in st. Louis.

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, October Big
Thursday was rendered notable in St.
Louis yesterday by the throngs which
crowded and jostled each other on
the streets, at the Elk
position. Fair Grounds and
all places of interest to citizen OF
stranger, and by one of the finest nigh:
pageants ever witnessed in this or any
other city. The pleasure of the occasion
was, however, somewhat marred by the
Inconvenience wrought by the street car
strike and by several more or less seri-
Gus aud bloody encounters between the
strikers and their friends and the scabs
who had secured their places.
