Addition to the 400 y

What has been wanting all the time to
make the National Museums little"Zoo"
complete was baby.
And now it has it, and twins.
A few days ago DR.. w. II. Ousley
Glasgow, KY, shipped the museum a
palr of tour-weeks-old baby gray foxes.
They arrived this morning and at once
stepped gracefully into their places as
the idols of the menagerie.
They are pretty little creatures, hardly
larger than young kittens and their noses
tive form that an adult fox's has.
They are in small cage on the wall
over the cuyote that came from the North
Platte with the bufialoes some time ago.
The menagerie has also secured out in
Montana. fine grizzly bear of the "silver
tip" variety. He was captured by the
Crow Indians and will be ON his way
here in few days.

reliable Train Service on b. 4 o

The Day Express which leaves Pitts
burg, via b. and o. r. r., daily at 8 a. M,
arrived at Washington and Baltimore on
time every day excepting two during the
month fApril. On one of these days the
train was Is minutes late and on the
other 10 minutes.
The Day Express which leaves Balti-
more, via b. and o. II. r., daily at 10
q. IN. and Washington at 1855 n. m, ar
rived at Pittsburg during the month of
April on time eUery ddg.
The prompt and reliable train service
of the b. and o, in conjunction with its
improved roadway and the scenic attrac-
tions along its line are rapidly bringing it
into public favor as the most desirable
route for travel between Pittsburg Wash
ington and Baltimore.
An equally reliable and efficient night
service is also maintained between these
three. cities, on which elegant Palace
Sleeping Cars are run.

The Orphan Home Festival.

The concert and strawberry festival
given by the children of the Washington
City Orphan Home, corner Fourteenth
and S streets northwest, last evening and
the evening before, were decided sue
cess. A large number of people attended
who, to Judge by their generous praise
and applause, went home well pleased
phans as well as with the amply supply
of strawberries and ice cream. The insti-
tuition feels greatly indebted to Mrs. Pres
ident Cleveland for large donation of
beautiful flowers sent by her to the little
orphans and to many other friends for
other donations.

The RemoyaI of Ashes.

EDITOR CRITIC: AS an advocate of prog
ress wish to enlist your influence in
bringing about reform which will be
appreciated by all housekeepers in this
city. 1t is no other than to have the
ashes removed by the city authorities
from each house every morning. Though
apparently small matter, in the course
of a month the expense of removing
ashes is considerable, and, during year,
aggregates quite an amount. It would

The Goat we Ride.

An incident of the Knights of the
Golden Eagle which occurred on the day
of the grand parade has been passed un-
noticed in the papers. 1t was the little
boy who rode. in the small goat wagon
with the inscription on the goats cover
"This is the goat we ride" His name is
Frank, the two'and-a- -half-year. old son of
Seventh street. He rode the entire way
and presented quite an unique appear

by thousands who witnessed the pro-

Josie NIansfleld still Llving.

The story that Miss Josie Mansfield
was buried few days ago in New Jersey
was promptly contadIcted, The fact is
that Miss Josie, who was such promi-
nent star in the late Jim Fisk's galaxy of
beauties, is now living in luxurious apart
ments in Paris. A gentleman who dined
with her in the French capital u
few weeks ago told THE CRITIC
that Miss Josie is in the. very best
ing and attractive, fpossible, than in the
days of Jim Fisk's regime in New York.
II is understood that an infatuated
scion of English nobility is the present
disbursing agent of the bewitching Miss
Josies apartments, wardrobe and equip
ages.

a Leading Merchant of Paso Del

Revelations.
Ell pAso, Tex, Feb. "a. The arrest Of
Postmaster Louis N. Fleury, Of Paso Del
Norte. Mexieo, last Thursday, on .
charge of robbipE the mails and SNUG
Cling goods into Mexico, has led to many
startling developments. The last is the
arrest Of Albert Kahn, of Kahn Brothers,
proprietors of the City of London store
and one of the heaviest merchants and
importers in Pas Del Norte. The firm
is composed Of the brothers, Albert
and Felix Kahn, and their nephew.
Felix Brumschweig. Albert Kahn is not
in iail, but is confined at the house OF the
district Judge under guard. Felix Kahn
is in France It 10 known that warrants
are out for the arrest Of other persons, but
the Mexican authorities are very reticent.
Fleury asserts that the stealing was done
by one of his clerks, named OFerraL who
absconded last June. but the defense 10
annihilated by the fact that Fleury him
self sold the stolen diamonds. The clerk
has been arrested at San Antonio and Will
be extradited. TIVE of the thefts amount
ed to $65, 600, and It 10 believed that the
aggregate, If known, would reach hum
dreds of thousands of dollars

are going to open the doors when we dis
cuss this treaty, and l am satisfied it will
result in open doors for the consideration
of all executive business upon which the
injunction of secresy is not specially
voted. There has been so much lying
obout what really took place in secret
session on the British extradition treaty,
that nearly all of the sen" tors are heartily
sick of the whole secre ecssion business,
and are about ready to open the doors by
practically unanimous consent. Closed
doors and the injunction of secresy give
too much latitude to men who want to
promote their selfish ends and misrepre-
sent what really occurs in secret session.
The senate, in secret session this after
noon, discussed for more than an hour
the question of opening the doors, but
shortly before 6 o'clock adjourned unit
tomorrow without having reached the
point of action"

Help From the Reading.

PITTsBuRG, Feb. 25.--Two hundred
locked out engineers and firemen from
the Reading railroad through here on the
western express this morning bound for
Chicago. Three of the engineers stated
that nearly all of the two hundred were
Knights of Labor; that they were going
to Chichago not as an organization, but
go TO work on the Chicago, Burlington
and Quincy railway. This they stated
because of the Brotherhood Engineers
and Firemen having taken their places on
the Reading A prominent engineer of
the Pennsylvania system stated that if
the Burlington flight is kept up he would
not be surprised if Chief Arthur ordered
every brotherhood engineer on every
road in the United States out on strike.
