Last evening about 7 o'clock « German, sp- parently about forty years oid, arrived at the Baltimore and Obio depot from Baltimore and registered at the Golden Eagle Hotel as Louis Koch and the clerk assigned him to a room bearing the unlucky number “18” It was learned from the ‘guest that be had landed in during the day from aship on which he had come over from Ger- many. Two friends also stopped at the hotel and they were going to get situations today.

He received no response, and | , shortly afterward one of them climbed over | to one year and a day in the Albany peniten- the transom and discovered that the man was | nearly dead. The gas was turned on and the | guest was unconscious. Both the door and the | ‘rindow were thrown open snd « messenger was | dispatched for a physician. Dr. Edwin Glad. mon was first to reach the bedside of the ma: whose life was fast ebbing away, and he a) plied restoratives, although the t's con tion was such that but little of his re- covery was entertained at that time.

All the characteristics of a banquet of college men were identified with the dinner of the Washington Alumni Association of the Uni- versity of Pennsylvania, which was held at Welcker’s last night. The dinner was the annual one given by the association, but was more memorable than usual by the presence of many of the distinguished members of the | faculty of the institution which Philadelphians | are ro proud of.

Recently, the officer says, the gates have been lowered at 2! & m. and permitted to remain so for three hours, obstructing not only the wagon road | but also the foot pavement. The gates are | kept lowered during the hours that the cars| do not run, and, according to the statement of | the policeman, ‘the watchmen claim that they | have the right to keep the gates lowered be- tween the hours mentioned. It is for the purpose of determining this | right that the officer procured the warrants, The obstruction, the officer says, has caused | many complaints, and the drivers who reach there and are unable to pass cause a great deal of trouble.
