LOST-A BROTHERS ASHES

LOST-A BROTHERS ASHES.
A novel claim is being made
upon one of the great French
railway companies. A gentle
man, who came to Paris to
have the body of his deceased
brother cremated at the cTem-
atorinm at Pete Lachaise Gem
etery, took the ashes away in
a hand bag, and, previous to
setting out OH his return jour
ney to his home in the country,
deposited the bag at the "con-
signe," or cloakroom, of the
railway, station. When he
came back to claim it, it had
gone Someone had come and
claimed a bag, and it had been
given up, probably by mistake.
Inquiries were instituted, but
the missing bag could not be
discovered The gentleman has
therefore brought action to re-
cover damages for the loss he
has sustained, and the judges
will be called upon to decide
what is the money value of a
brothers ashes.-London News.
