For some time past various guests at Dicks hotel have missed money and other articles. The mystery was solved this week, when the nurse girl of one of the guests saw Master Arthur Sastram trying to sell watch. She recognized it as belonging to her mistress, and re- ported the incident. This led to the dis covery of the person who helped himself to some script money belonging to the lady's husband. Young Sastram ac- knowledged his guilt, but appeared to be entirely indifferent. lThe boy had sold the money to different parties, some of which has been redeemed. The own CT would be glad to recover it all, and if any parties have bought this money of the boy, they would confer 8 favor by returning it to the hotel. A term in the reform school might straighten out the ideas of this ambitious lad.
