A LITTLE GIRL SCALDED.-Last evening,
as three little girls were near the corner Of
Lafayette and Front streets, one Of them,
"A daughter of Mr.. Frank Grote, by chance
tepped into the gutter, and the water was
so hot as to scald her feet and legs. On the
surface was thick scum from a rice mill,
which looked solid, probably leading the
child to think that she could walk on it.
Officer T. Houlihan assisted the unfortunate
girl to the best Of his ability.

moment she missed her treasures she took

Yesterday morning the woman who might
have stolen the diamonds was interviewed
by detective, when she said she would pay
for the jewels rather than have any pub
licity in the case, and che was believed. 1t
is likely that The loss will be made good by

EXTRAORDINARY DISAPPEARANCE FROM

Two MnLIoNs OF BoNDs.-Some days
ago, the Missouri State Treasurer found
several packages of State bonds in his
vault for which he had given no receipt
and with which he was not charged when
assuming his duties as Treasurer. Not
knowing what these were, he asked that
committee of Senators be appointed to
examine the matter, and report. A COM
mittee was appointed, and reported to
the Senate to the effect that several years
ago seven per cent bonds were issued to
various railroads in tho State; that sub
sequently q large number of these bonds
were exchanged for Missouri 6s, and as
they were exchanged, they were placed

Retail cigarHealers are to be afflicted
with patent cigar box, which the Com
missioner Of Internal Revenue hes in
vented, in order to keep them from swim
ding. The box has perforated coupons
on the inside edge, corresponding with
the number Of cigars in the box. The
coupons are furnished by the Govern
ment in place Of stamps, and when q
cigar is sold, q coupon has to be de-
stroyed before the purchaser. The de-
sign is to make the smokers detectives,
but, like everything else of this kind,
the smokers won't watch, and the patent
box will incite good deal of profanity
among retail cigar dealers, who do not
like to be continually suspected of cheat
ing the Government.

CIVIL RIGHTS IN THE CAPITOL spc-

of this tonsorial perquisite the second

his hair nicely curled by his colored

Some of tho more fastidious Senators

of negro in the Senatorial barber-shop,
the combs and brushes with which they
were accustomed to be adorned deity
flying through his kinky hair and over
his swarthy face. The result is, they
have since given the Senate barber-shop
