THE INDICTnEyr AGAINST GEN. BABCOCK.

New York, Dec 10,-A Times special from
st. Louis says the Indictment against Gen.
Babcock was found by vote of IL to In
favor of a true bill. The charge contained in
the indictment is conspiracy to detraud the
Treasury of the United States. The Grand
Jury before adjourning sent letters to Ex-
Marshal Newcomb and District Attorney
Patrick, saying that, although charges had
been made against them of conspiracy to de-
fraud the Government, a full and exhaustive
investigation had failed to convince the jury
of their guilt.

months ago was seduced by las she
charges young man named George
W. Hatch. The fact of the crime only
became public few weeks ago, since
which the community mas been busy
discussing all the possibilities, probabiH-
ties and crrtuinties connected with 1t.
Yesterday, rs Hatch WAS preceding
down street on his return to the saddiery
shop of Samuel w. Wilson, where he
works. he was fired upon by Miss llar-
per from q window OF her fathers resi-
dence and dangerously wounded. The
weapon used was n shot gun, which had
been heavily loaded with buckshot, some
fifteen or eighteen OF which
took effect on the person OF
Hatch, distributed from his head to
his feet None of the shot appear to
have gone very deep, or death must GER
tainly have resulted. As it i, the
young man is likely to recover, though
he will long suffer from his wounds.
Miss Harper WAS taken before justices
Sproule and Pugh, yesterday, on II wal
rant, for the shooting, and WAS held to

have had happy career had the for

two boys and two girls, good looking
aud healthy children. The era of me-
retricious spledpr has come and gon
like dream The girls are msrred
Each had dimond wedd ng, aud each
has sunk into Obcurity and poverty.
The two sons once held fiue appoint
ment in the service of the Ring, but
they are now only lOunging around
the City Hall. The mother is in wild
ow's desolation. The ill-gotten welth
is almost all gone. A million and u
half has passed into the hands of her
lawyers, and her husband IL .still a

Il LOfe an Honest Poy."

There's German who keeps a cor
ntr grocery In Keokuk, aud he had a
call from "a little boy the other night
who had been sent to get 50 bill
changed The boy received the
change and returned home with it,
when 1t was discovered that there was
a quarter which was rather ragged
though good, in the change, and, also,
that the quarter was just twenty-five
cents more change then the folks who
sent the bill were entitled to. The
boy was sent back to return it, and, of
course, the ragged " fractionaln was
sent with him. Entering the store
and holding out the ragged money,
the boy said:
you changed u two dollar bill for
me. Here's a quarter"
Our German friend, seeing the
money, and fancying he would have
to take it blck, interrupted the boy by
exclaimiug:
" Shanged noding! l shanged no
pills NIT you"
Yes you did, and here's quar-
ter"
Mine Gott, wat a liars. Meier in
my life did l see such boys. l dells
you, you meier shanged me NIT any
pills.n
"Why, 1 was in here not half an
hour ago, and you gave me quar-
ter
"Gife you some quarters! Bonner
wetter, young Teller do you dink /
pin gone CRAZY NIT my prains! l don't
git you some quarters. Now make
yourself seldom, rite away, before 1
put shoulders on your head" and he
commenced to move out from behind
the counter.
90, you didn't give me no quarter,
hey: all right, all right, Squire; Pm
just quarter ahead" and he started
to go out.
Now, said the German, putting
himself in an attitude of admiration,
" dot is what like to see peter as no
tings else. 1 lofe an honest poy, and
shoost pin trying you, sonny. Yaw,
1t was me what makes shange nit ter
pill, and / knows 1t all der same; |
vas drying you. Hu peesh a cheney
poy, aud gifts you a nice, pig apples
for your honestly and pocketing the
quarter he led the boy back to the rear
end of the store, and selecting an apple
about the size of marble he presented
1t to the boy, and patting him on the
head said, Now run along home,
sonny, and dell your folks vat a nice,
