One Mans Wardrobe.

The personsr effects of youug Mr.. Ben
zon, the so called Jubilee Plunger, were
sold at auction, anC an amazing lot of
stuff it was, too. Young BenZon has been
going down hill at a pretty rapid rate; the
tailors and tradespeop!e did not discover
his evasive characteristics until he had
| mulcted them OF goods in a considerable
sum. As you possibly recall, he got into
serious difficulty at Nice by forging the
name of a friend and drawing money
thereon.
Benzon's effects WIRE auctioned off in an
| old Bond street salesroom. Among them
was every variety of apparel-from dress
suit down to silk socks. There were morn
ing coats, pique anC colored shirts, UNI
brellas, walking sticks, neckties, hosiery,
scarfpins, cord brooches. wastcoatS, satin
| jockey caps. travelling bags, watches, cigar
holders, cigarette cases. hat boxes, pin
cushions, watch charms, spurs, flannel
trousers, crimson hi nting coats, gold pen
ellis, silk suspenderS, silk handkerchiefs,
an antique word, smelling bottles. gloves
galore, etc. etc.
Why, old Brummel himself might have
envied the collection of fnery. In one
batch alone there were Is pique waistcoats,
1879 collars, "a silk cravats and 90 coored
ties! There was nothing small about Ben
IONS way of doing business. When the
Jubilee Plunger Ell tered a tailor's or a
haberdashery he took everything for which
he could get credit. The swath he cut was

Religion and Business in Palestine.

Religious activity, George Augustus Sala
writes, has very much increased in Pales-
tine, but not always along the proper line
For centuries the Greeks and Latins have
struggled for the possession of the holy
places, but in the last ten years the strug-
gle seems to have been pursued with un-
scrupulousness and vulgarity.
1t would be impossible to describe the
impudence of the operators, their defiance
of history, common sense, etc. Where one
church has secured the traditional site, for
which both have been competing, the
other Immediately transfers the tradition
to a neighboring spot, and begins his
building very soon after that of his rival
The hostile sanctuaries are often as near
and as aggressive as the rival booths in a
village fair. The spectacle which for GEN.
turtles has disgraced the Christian name in
the Grotto of Bethlehem, the separate de-
nominational chapelS of the nativity, is
now repeated in the face of the sun on the
scene of our Lords agony.
The Franciscans walled in their Geth-
semane some years ago: but now above it,
separated only by narrow lane, rises a
new, garish, CHASTITY pile of white stone
walls and pnnacles called 'the Greek
Gethsemane." If this sort of thing goes
on it will fast become improbable 10 realize

dends, and Garrison was not at all anxious
to sell Jay Gould asked him what he
would take for the property, and his reply
was, Two and One-half million dollars
That is toe much, " replied Gould, land

need to take it if you doa't want to, but

away.
The next day he called again and offered
to give the s., 100000 for the road You
can't have it," replied Garrison. 'HThe
road is now worth $1,000, och : Il won't
give it, said Gould. Il am not anxious
to sell, " replied Garrison, and don't care
whether you take it or not, but by noon

Plants with Poisonous doors

There are few flowers whose perfume is
actually deadly The flowers of the kali
mujah, or death plaut, found in he islands
NJ lava and Sumatra emit u perfume so
powerful as To overcome, if inhaled for any
length of time, a full grown man and kill
ing ali forms of insect life approaching it.
This perfume resembles chloroform in
effect, producing insensibility and convuls-
ing the muscles of the face, especially
those about the mouth and eyes. All in
sects and birds seem instinctively to avoid
the plant, but when accidentally approach
ing it they have been seen to drop to the
earth, even when as far off rs three feet.
Linn8us mentions Il case in which the
odor of the rose bay proved fatal, and there
is flower known to the Persians as kerr
zerch, the perfume of which they believe
will kill a man If he inhales it after a hot
south wind has passed over its blossoms
Many other plants, though not having
deadly perfumes, nevertheless give forth
odors which are decidedly hurtful. The
ppdaria fptida eXcites fever and head
aches in those inhaling it. One of the
magnolas emits an odor which produces
in many persons nausea and sickness, and
the poison sumach and poison logwood are
apt to lead to similarly unpleasant effects.

The NoI.isst Street ON Earth.

Brooklyn claims the distinction OF poe
sessing the nuisiest street on earth. Com
pared with the roar of traffic which one
hears when standing near the postoffice in
New. York, between Broadway and Park
row, the nOisiest streets in any of the Eu-
ropeau capitals seem almost like the soil
tude OF lodge in some vast wilderness.
Brooklyn friend tells me that Fulton
street, in that town surpasses in point of
noise any street in New York or any other
city nlthe world.
fUtbg street business houses, he claims,
actually suffer on account of this noise.
the like Of which may not be encountered
elsewhere on earth.
Natt Brooklyn ladies come to New York
TO do their shopping because of the almost
hFearthly din which is never ceasing on
Fulton street, where nearly all the Brook
IyR stores are located. This seems partic-
narly strange when it is remembered that
Brooklyn Is known the world over as a
quiet town"
The reason that Fulton street is such Il
NOISY thorOughfare is due to the fact that
Is narrow as compared with Broadway.
Tue elevated railroad is low in most places,
the surface Of the street is crowded with
hh4ittfEa cars, and being the principal bust
ness street of the city, it has to carry more
tnan the average amount of traffic. As an
artery of trade" it is a success, but as a

Elliott trial yesterday afternoon a man
named Eli w. Hatfield, a farmer, answer

begged to be excused, as he said his farm

ding: "He saved my life once, I'll save
his crops now" Subsequently Judge
Pugh explained the matter. He and
Hatfield were both members of Company

Daring Highway Robbery Near Belfast.
BELFAST, June lst, 1891.

BELFAST, June 1st, 1891.
One of the boldest and daring highway
robberies that probably ever occurred in
this part of the country took place about
1850 o'clock last Thursday, the 2Sth inst,
about 81 miles south of here on the May
Hill and Loudon road. Sam Stewart, an
employe of Mr.. Silcott, of Youngsville,
while making his regular trip with his
huckster wagon was hailed on the public
highway In strip Of woods by two
masked men who ordered him and Mr..
Still, who happened to be with him, to
halt, get out of the wagon and hold up.
They thought to obey was their safest
pan with such deadly weapons aiming
at them. Sam at once recognized them
as Thos. King and Wilbert Roads King
ordered them to stand while Roads went
through their pockets and relieved them
of about SIS. Stewart said, ebert, do
you know what you are doing?" as he
was tax sing off his watch. He thought
at first that they were only in joke as
they were raised in the same community
and were school boys together.
King and Roads are both residents of
Adams county, near Louisville. Roads
says this spring is his first lesson with
King. King has been in the business,
some think, II or Is years. Roads was
captured last night in bed with his
brother. He confessed to robbing the
stores of Davidson's and McMeekin
with the post Office, money about $25.
He also confessed to the attempt to rob
Mrs. Davis, but failed. He said they
had plot to 60 through the Lovett
store and Office tonight, and also some
country residences. He left King near
Fairfax. King is still at liberty.
