Missouri Finances.

"If we understand the Democratic
press correctly 1t means to leave the
impression that Gov. Stephens has
performed a great feat Of financial
engineering by paying the States
debts with the money the people have
paid into the treasury."-springfield
Republican,.
The "great feat" is in the fact that
the debt Gov. Stephens is paying of
is an inheritance from the Republican
party. When this debt was contracted
the Republican party had control Of
State affairs and very little OF the
money the people paid ever reached
the treasury.

A JUVENILE TRAMP.
Little Colored Boy Walks from Mex

From the Globe Democrat.

From the Globe Democrat.
Plucky and obstinate is the s-year
old colored boy who walked with q
tramp from Mexico, Mo-, to st. Louis.
Lafayette Thompson is the name of
this youthful pedestrian, and he La
now sheltered at the City Hospital.
The little fellow says his life at homo
was unhappy. His mother and the
children teased him, and his sensitive
nature chafed under the treatment.
He decided to run away, and finding
a tramp who was going to walk to st.
Louis, he set out in the mans COM
pany. They were eight days making
the journey, it seems, and when they
reached the city little Thompson was
very weak from the long fasting, ex-
posnre and continued walking. He
was aided by some one to reach the
diapansary, and from there he was
sent 20 the City Hospital, with the
diagnosis "starvation."
With the same tenacity of purpose
he had exhibited in leaving homo, the
boy made his own choice OF nurses.
His selection fell on Miss Slack, one
of the attendants in the colored ward,
and he would have no other. Dr.Sutter
yielded to his domineering little pa
tient, and the boy now has things
coming his way. He will be held un-
til his parents are heard from.
