Afflicted that Way Yesterday.
The property room at police headquarters
yesterday presented the appearance of a job
lot auction store or hand-me-down junk lay
out the collection represented the re-
mains of the capitol reception. and it rivaled
in picturesqueness Hogarth's famous paint
ing, the Tail Piece. There were heaped to-
gether and scattered at random almost every
thing in the way of clothing or adornment
from a coaxing curl to a liver pad.
The collection comprised oyershoes, leggings,
muffs, bonnets, combs, wells, gloves, nit
tens, shawls, hats, ear muffs, feathers,
clouds and a lot of things the writer doesn't
know the name Of. AS a result, the room
was besieged all day by ladies and gentlemen
in quest of missing articles and BY nightfall
the collection had been pretty well hauled
over and decimated.
In addition to the above a large number
of articles was reported to the police as
missing. Early in the morning Mr.. NJ.

A wealthy merchant jeweler put in an ap-
pearance at the state house yesterday fore
noon in Il suit of iII-dttlng garments that
would have given him a first prize at a comic
masquerade. He wanted TO find the chap
who had appropriated one OF the finest seal
skin overcoais with cap and gloves to match
in this city, aud left these duds in their
place. There was 4 CLEAN OF wrath In his
eye, as with the tread OF an Esquimaux
brave he paced the halls OF revelry whence
all but him had fed" but his search was Of
no avail, aud he took the first hack-sleigh for
bone.
