HOLD FREIGHT CAR FOR ROBIN.
Home Built on Journal Box In New
York Causes Rail Rules to Be lg-
nored In Indiana.

Richmond, Ind. = Pennsylvania
freight car No. 1866, though relieved
of its burden and under company rules
ready to be reloaded and sent on its
endless journey, is being held on a
side-track in Richmond awaiting the
day that dainty Mrs Robin Red
breast shall have Matched out three
skyblue eggs that lie at the bottom OF
a nest on journal box of the car.
The nest was built and the eggs laid
in New York city, the ear having left
."piers and 5, Pennsylvania yards,
April 2S," as the tag on the cars side
Indicates. The car came through to
Richmond laden with goods for a
wholesale grocery house, and GA Its
arrival, May 1, William Nearren, car
inspector, discovered the nest with
Mrs. Robin Redbreast on guard. The
car was unlcaded, and with great care
backed on to a siding.
The journey of more than six hum
dred miles must have been made with
the robin on her nest most of the time.
Since arriving here, however, she has
left her nest at intervals, and the rail-
way boys say she seems to understand
she Is among friends
When the eggs are Matched, If 1t Is
believed practical, the young birds
and their home may be transferred to
the caves of a nearby building. But
the chances are that car No. 1885
will be tied up for month to come,

DIG UP SOLDIERS SKELETONS.
Worknen Unearth Remains of Men
Thought Killed in War for
independence.

New Yorh--Workmen digging g.
trench In Herrick street, Carlton Hill,
just across the Pasiac bridge from
Paterson, uncovered IL skeletons of
human beings. There was no infor-
nation of any old cemetery in the
nefghborhood and many old residents
were hunted up to explain the burial
of human beings there,
The likeliest explanation reached by
the investigators was that in the Skin
mishes between the Continental and
British troops, of which there were
many during the revolutionary war,
the dead in battle had been hurriedfy
buried there in rather shallow
treHc The disorder with which
the skeletons were piled together bore
out this theory.
A more romantic memory recalled
that there had once been tavern OF
malodorous reputation near the place
from this it was assumed that the
bodies of peddlers and we'll to do
transients had been buried in the
neighborhood of the tavern years ago.
