From the London Telegraph's Paris
Letter.
Many anecdotes are recorded of the
famous restaurateur Bignon, whose
death was announced recently. One
of them is rather amusing, and shows
how the celebrated caterer treated four
of the golden youth who went to have
supper at his restaurant after an
Opera masked ball, and made him wait
on them. The four were in high
spirits, caused by much consumption
of champagne, and as soon as they had
taken their seats at a table they told
the head waiter that they wanted to
be served by Bignon himself, and not
by his assistants 1t was in vain that
they were told that the patron" or
governor was in bed. They wanted
to have him aroused from his slumbers
and brought down to them. Otherwise,
they threatened to depart and to or
der supper in an opposition establish
ment. This menace nerved the head
waiter to action, and, mastering all
his bOldness, he went up stairs, gently
awoke his master, and explained to
him the situation. Bignon pulled off
his nightcap, jumped out of bed, dress
ed himself, and soon presented himself
before the four carousers assuming for
the occasion his best professional smile
The youths were delighted at the
success of their joke but Bignon also
insisted on having his fun at their ex-
pense. He presented long bill with
the notable item. Waited on by the
patron 1.000f" Protests were raised
against this by the young men, but
they at last gave way, and settled the
bill to the last sou. Rignon received
the money, and showed his guests out
with affability. Next day he sent the
sum of $40 to the charitable institu-
tion of tbe district

PROTEST FILED
Residents Object to Having Railwa,
Along Eighth Street

The board of education has forwarded TO
the District Commissioners letter from A.
H. Thompson and others protesting against
the proposed construction of a street rail-
road along Sth street. between North Caro-
INA ana pennsylvania avenues southeast.
The protest is based upon the fact that
the Eastern High School and the Wallach
and Towers Schools all face on Sth street
and that the thoroughfare is not wide
one The board of education declares to
the Commissioners that in its opinion swift
ly moving cars on Sth street would serious
iy menace the safety of the pupils Atten-
ton is called by the board to the fact that
several years ago the car tracks were re-
moved from the immediate front of the
Peabody School on account of the danger
to pupils. The board says a presentation
should be made to Congress against author
izins car tracks on that portion of Sth
street referred to. -

VICTIMS OF ROBBERY
HOTEL GUESTS RELIEVED OF
CASH AND VALUABLES.
Two Men Enter Rooms Of Mr. John
Worrau and Miss Thomas,
Carrying Away 1886.

Burglars visited the Raleigh Hotel this
morning and made a good haul, securing
money and jewelry to the amount of $685.
The losers Of the valuables were John Wor-
rail- and his half sister, Miss Kate Thomas.
Mr.. Worrall lives at Stanley Villa. Rowson
street. New Brighton. England. When he
reached this city with his sister he regis
tered at the Raleigh, taking communicate
ing rooms. Miss Thomas was slightly Ill
last night, and was awake several times
between the time she retired and o'clock
this morning, when the robbery was COM
nitted.
Both Mr.. Worrall and his sister heard an
intruder moving about in the rooms and the
former went in pursuit Of a man who was
seen to leave his apartment. He believes
he would have succeeded in erecting the
mans capture had 1t not been that his sis
ter, who had become very nervous, called
to him not to leave the room. Mr.. WOrrall
pressed the electric button for porter and
In a few minutes the police Of the first pre-
clnct were upon the scene. They learned
that two men had attracted attention about
the hotel and one was seen to leave after
the robbery was committed. An examina-
ton or the two rooms showed that the
burglars had taken $325 belonging to Mr..
Worrall and SIS of his sisters money. Two
bracelets belonging to the latter had also
been carried away. Mr.. Worralrs gold
cite case. worth $3.50, and two letters of
credit for $3.50 were also stolen.
Awakened by Noise.
1t was late last night when Mr. Worrall
and his sister retired. Miss Thomas was
awakened by a noise and looked at her
watch to see the hour Of the morning. The
timepiece indicated o'clock. About this
time her brother. who had heard noise,
called to her sister and approached her
room door, 1t then dawned upon them that
a robber was in the room. The intruder
hurried from the room of Miss Thomas and
Mr.. Worrall pursued him with the result
stated.
Capt. Boardman today assigned two de-
tectives to work on the case, and they were
assisted by Precinct Detective Herndon.
Mr.. Worrall and his sister visited Capt.
Boardman's office together during the day
and explained the circumstances of the
robbery to him. Payment of the letters of
credit was stopped. which reduces the
amount of the loss to $685.. The robbery left
Mr.. Worrall with but a small amount of
cash. and he had to cable home for funds.
1t is the belief of the detectives that the
theft was committed by professional hotel
men, and are satisfied that there were two
men implicated in the affair. One of them,
they believe, had secreted himself in the
room and opened the door for the other to
enter.
