BE- COMPLIMENT TO JUDGE WALDo.-Yesterday
afternoon, at o'clock, interesting proceedings
were witnessed in the Pension Office; the
clerks and other persons employed in that bu-
reau having assembled to pay deserved COM
pliment to Judge Waldo, in the presentation
to him of a service Of silver plate, consisting
of six solid pieces, namely: A coffee pot, two
tea pots. cream ever, and slop bowl, weighing
200 ounces, and costing $500. 1t is entirely
plain, having no ornaments except at the feet,
edges, and top, which are exquisitely chased,
giving an elegant relief to the whole. This
beautiful present has been manufactured to
order by NJ. W. Gait & Brother, of this city
The frst-named piece bears the following in
scription: A mementO of respect and friend
ship from the clerks and other gentlemen in
the Pension Office to the Hon. Loren P. Waldo
upon his retirement from office Washington,
August |, 1885.
Mr.. John RObb made the presentation speech,
and was replied to in terms equally opposite
and eloquent by the respected recipient Of the
honor.
JUVENILE DISHONESTY j. boy,
between seven and eight years of age, offered
to sell to a son of Capt Lullay, who is about
the same size as himself, piece of calico,
worth, probably. five or six dollars, for the
sum of six and a quarter cents Another SOD,
four years the senior of his brother, witnessing
the proceedings, a. once seized the goods
which he carried t. his father. The lad who
had offered the article for sale Immediately
fed, but afterwards his brother came To the
Captain elder son and demanded the calico
saying if he did not surrender it he would be
killed with knife, Comment on these pro-
cccdiEgs are unnecessary, as they sufficiently
show a state of moral depravity painful 10
every rejecting mind. The boy to whom we
first allude doubtless acquired The goods dis
honestly, and it may not be the first case Of
the kind with him. Capt. Luliay has been
seeking to find the owner of the stolen article
and left it at this Office for reclamation.
