Left In One Car In One Month.

A brown paper parcel of goodly pro
portions was turned in at the lost article
bureau of the Wagner Palace Car COM
pany few days ago, the contents Of
which give fair idea of the kind of ar
ticles that the travellers on the rail leave
behind them in their forgetfulness. The
bundle aforesaid contained the collection
of lost articles made by the conductor of
one sleeping car for a month. The va
riety of articles thus accumulated was
amusing as we'll as interesting. When
the bundle was united on the broad ta-
BILE in the lost article bureau, the first
thing that rolled out was a silver han
died shaving brush. There was no &C
companying razor, the owner probably
having remembered to put that useful
instrument back in his satchel. A full
set of false teeth nestled costly in a clus-
ter of false hair and small copy of the
Episcopal prayer book was damned
against a neat leather covered pocket
flask. Of toothbrushes and hairbrushes
and combs there We're half a dozen each.
Other things in this odd collection in
cluded a baby's milk bottle, pair OF
ladies' slippers, one patent leather shoe
once worn by man, wooden under
shirt, manicure set in Russia morocco
case, two or three empty portmonnaies,
and, most singular of all, dainty little
bonnet so attractive in form and color
that it is a wonder how any woman
could have forgotten it.-New York

1I,a Memory of Villains.

Althon@h the world is said to know
nothing of its greatest men, 1t has al
ways had IN unaccountable and 1t would
seem invincible propensity for retaining
remembrance of the very worst speci-
mems of humanity, and it is really ques-
tionable whether the laurel of the con-
queror and the bays of the poet are, in
the long run, quite so certain of enduring
fame as the halters which have strangled
the most notorious of scoundrels. The
French have not forgotten those old
time villains Cartouche and Mandrin,
while in England Dick Turpin and his
apocryphal ride to York have not passed
from the public memory.
The exploits of Jack Sheppard as a
burglar and prison breaker turn up
from time to time i'll the public prints,
and it is an almost scandalous fact that
quite modern fashionable dressmakers
have devised Il costume named after
Claude Duval, n rascal in whose career
there is not one single picturesque or
romantic feature beyond the dubious
story that he once refrained from steal
ing the jewels of Il lady whose coach he
had stopped on condition that she would
alight from her equipage and dance a
coranto with him. The varlet was a
discharged footman of the Duchess of
Portsmouth, and, taking the highway
was in due course of time caught. con-
victed and hanged at Tyburn. Yet
somehow or another it seems next to
the impossible to bury the memory of
these and similar malefactors in obiv-
ion.-Boston Herald

THE CAPITOL m DANGER.
Anarchists Reported Ready to Destroy the
Washington Building.


WASHINGTON, June lS.-There has been
published here an exposure of an alleged
plot to destroy the capitol and other pub
lie buildings. The prime mover was Ho
more Jaxon. He came from Chicago and
is still in the city. He is n professional an.
archist In Chicago he has been dis.
turber for years. After JaXon's arrival
here letters We're received by the secret
service and capitol officers that band OF
anarchists Were being organized in Wash
ington and that II. J. JaXon of Chicago
was the leading spirit
JaXon's headquarters was the residence
of a Frcnchman named Savant, recognized
by his ncighbors as an Intelligent but &C
centric character. One night the officers
on watch saw large glass bottle such as
druggists use for explosive chemicals de
livercd at the house An occasion for the
use of the explosive the anarchists hope,
it is said, to be furnished by the arrival
of that part of Frye's industrial army now
reported in the Cumberland valley.
Under cover of disturbance produced
by them the plot against the capitol is tc
be carried out. In support of this it is
said that Il number of Chicago anarchists
of the most rabid type are with that army.
The discovery of the formula for making
the explosive which the oonspirators pro
posed to use is probably the most impor
tant piece of work done by the detectives.
Several chemicals are used, and the pro-
portions make high explosive of now
and most dangerous kind. AS soon as the
police obtained the formula they took it
to a well known chemist and asked him
to make up n sample, He did so in his
laboratory and placed il on window sill
in the sun. In n few moments there was
an explosion. Not much noise accompa
MED the explosion, but there was n ter
rife conclusion and most nauseating and
binding smoke, although the quantity OF
rhr chemicals experimental with was
l., small.

The Traction Cos men are along Bank

The funeral of Patrick Clancy was

his late residence, 81 Third street, with
services at st Patricks church and inter

taken farther then he had originally in

to leave the wagon till he landed him in
Ansonia. Here he was left to shift for
himself Meanwhile his mother and
friends were frantic over Lis absence and
spent yesterday and last night in vain
effort to learn of his whereabouts. At IL
o'clock this morning when all hope had
been abandoned the boy arrived home
tired out after an all night journey from
Ansonia. He does not know who the man
is and as the boy has never before been
away from home there is no reason to
doubt the truth of his story. After all who
can tell but there was also some truth in
