a LAWYER AsrouNDED.-A few days ago a
prominent lawyer of st. Louis missed his free
pass on the city railroad Of that city, and sus-
pccting that it had been stolen, he went to the
office Of the Railroad Company, Informed the
officials Of his suspicious and requested them to
have any one who should present the pass on the
street cars arrested. Orders were accordingly
issued to all the conductors on the line to keep
sharp lookout for the missing ticket ~
couple of days alterward, while searching
through some papers in his office, the legal
gentleman found the missing ticket, and while
riding home on L car presented it to the con-
ductor, who examined it closely. He 'lmme- N
diately collard the astounded member of the
bar, and in reply to question as to what ne e
meant by seizing him, remarked that he had
been looking for the man who had stolen that
ticket for some days past. In vain the legal
gentleman endcavored to explain that he was
the righttul owner Of the pass; the conductor
would not believe him. He said he. had seen
i good deal. of human nature, and knew an
honest man when he met him. On the return
trip he brought his prisoner back with him and
took HIM to the police station, where he was
recognized and released.

defeat Grant in tho contest Of 1872. If
