The story of the bold assault and robberywhich occurred about 8 o'clock Monday nighton 29th street, between Water and Canal streets,in Georgetown, was told in the Police Courtyesterday. William Taylor, an old mun, and a
young man named John French, who reside atNo. 2727 K street, were on their way to 29th*ud Bridge streets to purchase some feed.They were met by two negroes, one of whomasked the old man. "How much money is yougot?""None belonging to you," responded the old
man.. What is you got?" the negro then asked of
the other man.
...Nothing but a silver watch." respondedFrench..Th« negro then grabbed the watch and a
tussle followed The boy screamed and one oftile negroes dealt him a severe blow on the headwith a club indicting a severe wound. Pistolshots were fired by one of the negroes.

ZOOLOGICAL GARDEN9.
Dr. Shufeldt's Suggestions Concerningtheir I'm »nil Management.
Pr. R. W. Shufeldt in an article in the Popu¬lar Science Monthly for April on "ZoologicalGardens; their Uses and Management." says:'.Barely has it been in the history of the worldthat a city which has become famous as a scien¬tific and literary center has not, sooner orlater, inaugurated, developed, and maintainedits collection of living wild animals, its zoo¬
logical gardens. Indeed, in modern times, asof old. in large civilized communities, it hascome to be where such establishments are inexistence, and kept up to ft high state of per¬fection and growth, that they arethe verv badge denoting the presence ofmarked intellectual activity along the lines wehave indicated. With respect to the instancesof this in history, they are too well known tothe general reader to require enumeration here,while we are all familiar with the names ofthose cities of our own day wherein such insti¬tutions are now flourishing. In modern times,again, the enormous impulse which the bio¬logical sciences have received, the far keenerappreciation on the part of the reading publicin such matters, and the pressing necessity forsuch material as zoological gardens can alonesupply the morphologist artist and animal his¬torian are. we must believe, the principalforces that eventually give birth to these col¬lections."History goes to show." the writer says, "that
the superb zoological gardens now maintainedin London were first opened in 1828; siuce whichtime, down to 18S7. 24.572,405 visitors were en¬tered upon the register-books o? the manage¬ment. An instant's reflection will be sufficientto convince anv friend of education of the ben¬efits that humanity has derived hence, and ofthe refining influences which have through thiscenter alone been brought into play.
THE FORM or THE GROUNDS.Dr. Shufeldt continuing says: "When a city
distinguished as being a scientific center, or
mayhap the national capital.and this itselfmay be such a city.determines upon establish¬ing a zoological garden within its precincts, a
great deal depends upon the site which ischosen for the purpose. If possible, the formof the grounds should be a regular figuro,an oblong being one of the best, with a longMile toward the direction whence come theprevailing winds, as this assists in securinggood ventilation: nnd the area should includoat least two hundred to two hundred and fiftyacres. The site should be within some con¬venient distance of the city museums and libra¬ries; surely not separated from these by morethan three miles at the most. Another matterof great importance is the character of thecountry, which should be as diversified as pos¬sible: and the inclosure should contain u fewsizable ponds, or a good, strong stream of Iwater, in which event the former can be easily |constructed artificially. Old trees in groups;some low, level marsh-land; and some hillsand rocky portions, are all points of extremenatural advantage. Those latter features, ifmarked, usually insure, too, another benefit,for then hilly or broken conntry is likelyto be found immediately beyond the limits ofthe garden, which, though conducive to thebuilding of handsome suburban residences, isnot likely to till up entirely with houses as thecity increases in size: and thus excellent ven¬tilation is secured for all time. There are sev¬eral highly important elements which shouldbe paramount in th>< administration of theaffairs of such an institution in order to insureits highest success and most healthy growthand usefulness. Chief among these is the mat¬ter of choice of the persons selected to consti¬tute the staff of such a zoological garden as wehave in mind. Next are the methods of con¬fining and exhibiting the collection of animalsof tlie place, the regulations controlling itssanitation aud keeping; and provision of thosesteps which lead to the public and specialworkers deriving the greatest amount of benefitfrom it. in a purely educational point of view,incorporating here the subservience of scienceiu her diverse ends and means.
THE LONDON ZOO...In the spring of this year (1888) the zoologi¬
cal society of London, in addition to its regularstaff of officers, employed the following per¬sons: One superintendent, one assistant super¬intendent, one head keeper, six keepers (firstclass), ten keepers (second class), eight keepersthird class), three money-takers, one store¬keeper, one cook, one office-clerk, one prosec¬tor's assistant, one head gardener, nineteenhelpers in the menagerie, ten garden laborers,seven artisans, two painters, six laborers, onebutcher, two firemen, two night watchmen andone time-keeper.making h whole force ofabout eighty-five people, the duties of w homare sufficiently suggested by their designa¬tions. It is hardly necessary to say that thegentlemen composing the staff of officersshould be selected not only for their executiveabililv in the departments they severally fill,but likewise for their distinction in some-branch of zoological science, and more«specially vertebrate zoology. Of that part ofthe staff which has just been enumeratedabove,especial regard should be paid to the selectionof the keepers, who should be men fond ofanimals and th» ir care, gentle and patient, andotherwise particularly fitted for their employ¬ment.
ANIMALS BECOMING EXTINCT. |"In a country like the United States," thearticle says, "where a number of its finest mam¬mals and some birds are rapidly becoming ex¬tinct. it devolves as a solemn duty upon themanagement of a zoological garden to secure a
goodly representation of these for permanentpreservation. Among the mammals whichnow need such action none is better knownthan the buffalo, though the Rocky Mountaingoat (Mazftma), the beaver, and several speciesof deer stand in the same case; indeed. I pre¬sume the day will come to this country whenall of our larger mammals will cease to exist ina state of nature, and we shall have to dependupon our gardens and parks for examples ofthem. Of the birds, our Carolina parrot androseate spoonbill are conspicuous examples,and it can be only a few years at most whenboth species will be extinct in this country.41 * » . * ?
"One main building always constitutes an in¬separable part of a model zoological garden,aud it is devoted to the offices and study-roomsof the staff. to the lecture-room, to the reading-room and library, to the photographic gallery,to the laboratories and store-rooms, and. finally,to a few spare rooms for special purposes. Thelecture-room should be properly fitted up. andmade to accommodate a large audi<-nce. Here,at certain seasons, a course of free lecturesshould be delivered on some branch of zoologyor zootomy, either by some resident memberof the staff, or by specialists. No well appointedzoological building in connection with agardeuwould lie complete without its reading roomand library. In the latter should be found, intime, all the standard works that have appearedupon the various branches of natural science,aud more particularly upon vertebrate zoologyand morphology, including, of course, suchsubjects us classification and geographical dis¬tribution of animals, and the reports of otherzoological gardens and societies."
THE DUTY or THE NATION."With respect to a nation as a whole that has
nrrived at a certain height of civilizatiou, andcan boast of a well-filled treasury," Dr.Shufeldt concludes, "it almost, if not quite,becomes her bounden duty to her people, andto the common good, to endow such an institu¬tion at her national capital, in connection withother scientific departments, of which she isthe supporter in chief. And it should be thopride of every intelligent citizen of such anation to see to it. as far as he is individuallyable, that the capital of his countrv is not back¬ward in such matters, especially when hecomesto look about him and dees that the most dis¬tinguished and influential nations of the earthare characterized by possessing just such in¬stitutions at the seat of their national govern¬ments.

A MBS. ZACHOQNER. OF DETROIT. SAID TO HAVEKILLED FOUB PEOPLE.
A Pittsburg dispatch of March 27. says: De¬troit telegrams intimate very strongly that Mrs.Annie Zachogner. of 201 Kentucky street, thatcity, had poisoned three husbands, also thomother and sister of her fourth and presenthusband. The latter is a former resident ofAllegheny City, where his family still resides.About three weeks ago his mother and sister
Emma went to Detroit on a visit, where theywere suddenly taken sick. The mother recov¬ered but Emma died and arsenic was found inher stomach. This latter discovery was notmade until Monday of this week, the contentsof the stomach having been given to a Detroitphysician for examination. In the meantimeMrs. Zachogner. her husband and his mothercame here with Emma's body and the burialtook place. This was two weeks ago and twodays later Mr. and Mrs. Zachogner. Jr., wentto Turtle Creek. Pa., remaining until yesterday,although the Detroit authorities had beengiven to understand that they would return tothat city as soon as the funeral was over.Yesterday they were found in Allegheny by a
reporter and denied all criminality, announcingtheir intention of returning to Detroit on the 8p. m. train last night. A telegram from Detroitthis afternoon said they had not yet arrivedand that their arrest hud been ordered by thecoroner. Mrs. Zachogner, sr., is at her homein Allegheny. She is heart-broken over the af¬fair. which promises tc develop into a sensa¬tional case.

THE "MODUS VIVENDA" AND TUE KEHRINQ SEAPROCLAMATION.
In the Dominion house of commons Tuesday-night Sir John MacDonald. in answer to a ques¬tion of Mr. Jones, of Halifax, regarding thecontinuance of the mwlus viverulu, said: "Wehave been in communication with Newfound¬land for some time upon the subject with a viewto joint action. On Friday or Saturday last wereceived a communication from the government of Newfoundland that they would act withus and would allow the modus vtveiida to go intooperation for the coming season."
In reply to a question of Mr. Mitchell as towhether any correspondence had been had inregard to the B< bring sea proclamation of theAmerican government, the prime minister said:"There has been no correspondence. There isa good deal of misapprehension on the subject,but there is a clause in an act of Congress re¬lating to the Bellring sea. requiring a procla¬mation of this kind to be issued every year,warning their own people regarding the rightsreserved to private parties iu that region. 1 hisis only the ordinary proclamation issued everyyear and covered no new feature."
What You Pay For Food.SOCIAL REFORM FROM THE KITCHF.V SUGGESTED
BY A NOTED STATISTICIAN.Edward Atkinson iu the April Forum.
It is a well ascertained fact that, with respectto about 90 per cent, of the community, theprice paid for food comes to one-half the in¬come or more. After this food is bought howmuch of it is wasted in bad cooking? Howmuch human force is wasted in consequence ofbad cooking? How much does dyspepsia or in¬digestion. caused by bad cooking, impair theworking capacity of the people of the UnitedStates and diminish their product?Can five cents' worth per day be saved? Isnot that a very insufficient measure of the dif¬ference between a poor, wasteful cook and agood, economical one? If five cents a day canbe saved on food and fuel, while at the sametime that which is bought and cooked may beconverted into more nutritious and appetizingfood, the difference in each community of 6.000people would be $109,500 a year, or about nineper cent of the total product of the typicalcommunity, which we have assumed to be1)1,200.000 a year in gross.Wb( n the attention of the labor reformer isbrought down from grand schemes for alteringthe whole constitution of society by act of Con¬
gress or of the state legislature, to the simplequestion of how cach person, each family, oreach community may Detter itself under exist¬ing conditions, great progress will have beenmade in solving all the problems which arenow pending.
>s»The Dead English Statesman.
JOHN BRKIIIT'S ri'NERAL TO BE AS UNPRETEN¬TIOUS AS POSSIBLE.
The funeral of John Bright will take place atRoehdale. Lancashire, on Saturday. There willbe little ceremony and the body will be interredin the Quaker burying ground. Political dep¬utations will follow the funeral. Only personalfriends will be admitted to the services at thehouse. It was the wish of the deceased thatthe funeral should be as simple as possible. Aeast of the face of the dead statesman was takenyesterday.Nothing but praise for the noble and nscful
life of the great quaker, and profound regret athis death was heard in England yesterday.Tories and liberals alike united in these expres¬sions, the latter overlooking Bright's unionistsentiments iu their admiration of the sterlingqualities of the man. At political meetingsthroughout England last evening sympatheticreferences were made to Mr. Bright. WilliamVeruon Harcourt, speaking at Bradford, saidthat no greater or purer man ever adornedolitical life in England. Lords Harris andpencer also paid tributes to the dead.It is thought that John Bright's youngest son
will be given his father's seat in'the house ofcommons if he will accept it.For the last ten years Mr. Bright was in vis¬ible process of decay. His once resonant voicebegan to fail when he joined Mr. Gladstone'scabinet in 1880, and his parliamentary careerpractically closed when he quitted the ministryon account of the bombardment of Alexandria,a step on the part of the government, whichhe never coula be brought to justify or even
excuse.
