Uncle sam Robbed of s2oo.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 6.--Another irregular ity has been discovered in the treasury de- pertinent arising out of the mysterious dis appearance of ten sheets of paper, each con tainiug four notes of a denomination of $5 and representing $200 in all. These were in- cluded in the regular delivery from the bureau of engraving and printing to the United States treasurer last Monday. The packages were counted ard reported to be correct in every particular before leaving the bureau. On reaching the tressurer's office they were again counted and reported cor rect. After being verified at the treasurer's office they were turned over to the sealing division for completion, where they were found to be short ten sheets. It is probable the missing sheets were abstracted by some- one thoroughly familiar with the method of handling them. The notes will readily cur- rents for money for they lack only the treas- ury seal to be legal tender

After refreshing nights sleep, the ct
tawa cycling club and its guests-the Au
rora, Sueator, Joliet, Marseilles and Sand
wich bicycle clubs-assembled In the
Clifton lobby on the morning of the fifth
preparatory to embarking on the Sydney
s, which the Ottawa club had chartered
for the trip to the Canyons and Starved
Rock, the reads having been rendered unfit
for wheeling by the rain of the night be
fore.
As the boat swung away from the Cliff
ton landing, the boys presented pictur.
esque appearance, and looked as though
cycling was conducive TO at least two OF
the results of "early TO bed and early to
arise" viz. healthy and wisdom.
There were seventeen of the Streator
cyclists, four Of whom came on the night
of the 4th, sixteen of the Aurora club
thirteen OF the Joliet bicyclisls, six from
Marseilles, six from Sandwich. and about
eighteen of the city cyclists, and they
formed as merry party as the old river
has seen in months.
The ride down the river was enlivened
with songs from the visitors, among whom
were several splendid vOCaists, and tales
of cycling under difficulties and otherwise.
Arrived at the canyons, the party disem-
bsrked, and made tour f the beautiful
surroundings, ending up with shower
bath under one Of the lovely water falls.
The visitors were completely carried
away with the besuty and grandeur of the
scenery and expressed a strong desire 10
visit it again. Leaving the canyons, the
pasty reem barked and proceeded TO Starved
Rock. Here the majority of the Ottawa
boys fell TO and prepared supper, while
Horace Hull led the visitors to the top of
the Rock, and discoursed upon its early as
sociations and traditions. Horace had
studied up on the subject, dsvouring seven
cyclopedias, Mr.. Perry Armstrong; his
tory OF the Devil among the Indians"
and Burke's Peerage. According to Hor-
ance when We say Horace we mean not
the Joy of the college freshman, but Hor-
ace HULL this rock was tie original birth
place of the Devil among the Indians, !"
and apparently sheol of place for the
Illinois Indians also. There" said he sis
the site of the ancient county of the Dukes
Of Marlborough and the birthplace of
Shakespeare and it was upon this spot
that Washington captured the Dutch at the
battle of Fort Donaldson This was a
little strong, but Horace didn't intend TO
