UNDISCOVERED hAlLhOAD ASSETS.
In the United States court, Judge Hughes, the
old case of the Alexandria and Washington
Railroad Company and its creditors was again
called up. 1t was alleged that all the assets of
the railroad company had not been disposed of
at the sale of the railroad some time ago, and
the District of Columbia and other creditors
made application for the appointment of a re-
ceiver to collect these assets. The court re-
ferred the case to Commissioner Fowler to ex-
anime and report as to the existence and ma
ture Of the alleged assets.

Couldn't DO Two Things at Once.

Yesterday afternoon there furry of ex-
citement at the Baltimore and Potomac station
owing to young man attempting to do two
things at once-lower an umbrella and light a
cigarette. He had the lighted match in one
hand, the cigarette in his mouth and was
in the act of lowering the umbrella
in the other hand when the match
caught to the umbrella, which burst in a
blaze. The cigarette was forced from the
mouth by the anger arising and the young man
ran to the neighboring telegraph post to beat
out the devouriDg flames on the Umbrella, but
was oblivious to the fact that the handle was a
heavy one and after one or two ticks the handle
was broken off. The umbrella was left to its
fate and perfect storm of anger arose, which
was not dispelled until the umbrellaless young
man left the depot.
