A GENTLEMANLY ROGUE, TIOW R NEAT TIIR TREMONT HOUSE, About the middie of July there registered at the Tremont House C. A. Stevens, of Albany, N.Y. He was.a large, vortly gentleman ol about 50 summers and winters, had a placid, dignified countenance such a8 might be expected fn a stald business man of regular habita; wore a sult of fanitless black anda “high six” tiited back over an_expansive and Intellectual brow; his immaculate linen bore no sportive diamonds, and there were no appearances of *flash ! about hims he varried a neat, gold-headed cane, and walked with stooping shoulders in a mens- ured, self-satisfied way. He wonld readlly have been set down as a well-to<lo merchant, or perhaps a bank President,—not n savings- bank eltber. After passing the customary sal- utations with the gentlemanly clerk, Mr. Stevens, om** Colonel,” as he {s more commonly known, requested that a New York drafe for £100 be cashed. 1t so happencd that the gen- tiemanly clerk aforesald had enjoyed the Col- onel's acquaintance in the East, and upon the strength of that acquaintance did not hesi- tate to tnmpll with the request, and cashied the draft. The Colonel wanted only 850 in cashi the other $50 could be credited on his boarding account. Davs passed away, and’ the dignified and gentlemanly Colonel continued ™ to make the Tremont louse 'his home, and duriug his sojourn it was learned that at one time he was oneofthe ortginatora of the Albany & Hoosae Tunnel Railroad which then existed only on paper, and of which he wasat one thne the President. Also that lie was Interested Ina patent ist-mill now . on _exhibition fu the Chleago Exposition. One day the roprictors of _ the Tremont ~ wero ndeed surprised to have retnrned to_them the £100 New York draft. The bank in New York “knew not Joseph.!” and there was no mouey to the credit of C. A. Stevens. The Colonel was approached on the subject. * “Thers mu some mistake about " it he said. **Why, 1 certainly have money there. There is some mistake maybe in the draft itsclf. Let me tee it Aud he looked at it, and it appeared all right. {1t seems to be all right, he bland. ly enid, and he laughed aud scemed to think it agood joke that “a man of my standing, you know, should be found in_ this fx.! Why, he had $100,000 worth of sccurities herce in Haines’ bank, aud ho laughed away -the idea of his being s:umy of drawing a bogus draft. Nevertheless the provrletors of the Tremont House bod their distinguished toander arrestéd tipon a wartant Issucd by Jus- tice Polluk, before whom he was taken for ob- taining money under falzc pretenses. Ilere ngain - he evinced a most appreciative sense of ~ the ludicrousness of- his situation. Tle, a man uf wealth and rmlmnm arrested, cte. e, a tnan who had nis hnareds of thoneands. He, who wanted some capitalist to go In_with him and push the in: vention of which ho was the agent or patent- right owner. 1l cven asked to be recommend- ed to some good firms in Chicago that e might do_bustness with, and showed such a bold and apparently gulltless front that he complete- 1y disarmed the suspiclon which was pointed at lim, snd succeeded fn ovtalning a continuance of the case agalnst him, he golng free on his own recognizanee, aceepted at the request of the manager of the Tremont House, Several times during the course of aweek succeeding lis ur. rest, which, by the wav, occurred about one month ago, ke “called ot the Justice's oflico and made himseit solid with his_flonor and tho case drazwed along. At joat the tinal day of hearing arrived, and the Colunel, whero was he? Gone to meet Spencer, perhaps, for he could not be fouud, and to this day no trace nor, clew of him has been obtafned by the lynx-eyed Constahle Hartinan, who has been on t{m watch. And now it appears that not only Is the Tremont House “out’ the amount of the board enfoyed by the Colonel and the $50 fu cash advanced to him, but George Wicks, o sporting wentleman of gomo little rc[mlntlun, mourns the loss of &125—thie nmount ol another New York draft which the gentlemauly George {ndorsed and the Sherman Housc cashed; and Mr. Noonan, the vencrable editor of_thy fndus- trial Age, 1s a loser by about 8100. Mr. Noonan is nlso interested In the grist-mil} aforesald. Ono " Mitle incident which f it have any effect will tend only to lucrease' the respect which tho ‘Trenont Ilouse veople bave for Mr.Stevens, may be related, (It should first be known that nfter the arrest the Colonel’s trunk aud contents were hield for board.) Onehot day Mr. 8tevens requested the privileze of arraying himself in freeli linen, 1t was accorded “by the -Tremont, aud the Colonel put on necarly all the shirts he had, .one over ‘the other, and throwing a heavy winter overcoat over his arm, atarted out the dovr, whern he was met and “stopped by Mr, Jewett Wilcox, who demanded that he return the cout to its nlace of rofety, ‘I he Colonel escaped with the shirts, and hasnot since been seen. He will meet with a war re- ception on his return to Chicago. TIE COUNTY RING. ONLY NINB JURORS YXT ODTAINED, All day yesterday was devoted fn the Criminal Court to an attempt to get a jury to declde the gullt or innocence of the County * ringaters " now on trial for conspiracy to rob. The under- taking 18 u very tedious one, and nothing what- ever was accomplished at the morning scasion, ‘The special venire of fifty was compused of very indifferent material as a whole. There were, loweyer, some gowd men among them, but with very few exceptions they presunted excuses for not beiogr able to serve, and were allowed to £o. "When® Judie Farwell asked i any of the lifty wished to be released from jury duty thirty of thew gathered around tho bench to present thelr reasons. Ono man had never served oua Jury, and did not think he was competent to do 80, and requested a releass on that ground. The Court was unable to ace its sufliclency, Others couldn't afford to leave thelr busincss; some were sick, ur had wives and babics who were 113 more had uot been naturalized, and a few couldn’t understand Euclish. - The result was that wsulv‘\vm were excused, the panel of fitty yielding only twenty-cight, and they were nat aceeptable, About four tu five of those who shirked their duty are the kind of fellows who howl about the charncter of juries [n the Crim- fnal Court, It would scem thac Ballit Wat. kius, who summoncd these soccial jurors, has o fancy for lmktcrenl and Myuor dealers, one- sixthof the whole number belng mude up of peopte who handle whisky, Thers was alsoa oudly number of small grocervuion and petty tradesmen,—honcat uough, perhapy, bue LACKING IN INTELLIGENCE, Judging from their inability to understand the questions asked them by the attorueys.

Specral Diwateh 1o The Chicugo Triduns, Wasnixarox, D, C., Sept. 28,—The work of the reorzanization of the Patent Oflice Is pro- gressing favorably, About 10 per cent of the atmber of models destroged are kuown os pend- ing-application models, They are models cither still unler examination or have paased the oftlce without having secured patents, The Commtssioner of Patents, who returncd to-day, has determined to ask nll patentees to prescut a duplicate model at their own cxpense. This is, of course, a request amd not a demand, nd, under the law, it s by no mecans certaln that the Government would not bo com- pelled to make n new model, or at lcast pay the expense of restoring tho lost one, but patentees for cases pending will greatly facilitate the busl- néss of the Patent Office and IENKPIT THEMSELVES if thev comply with this reoucst. It will be possivle for them nlso to incorporate in the new model any fmprovements whicl way have been suggested {o them since the ono destroyed was presented, In cases where patents have been allowed under the destroyed models the examiners will be so famillar with the cases that the public will not_be injured by any chonges mode in them, The Conmntseloner s receiving about 100 telegrams daily n‘lslllllll_' to know what the condition of the ollce fa.

Wasminaroy, D, C., Sept. 23,—8omo weeks sinco ex-Speelal Agent Moore published grave charges agalnst Col. Ayer, long considered one of the best ofllcers connected with the Cuse toma service. In the accusation Moore stated that Ayer was directly reaponsible for the non- discovery of frauds in the Norfolk Custom- House, which he (Moure) pretended to have un- carthed the moment he turned his attention to the matter, Other officers were also discovered by Moore as equally Involved with Ayer In this gross neglect, Beeretary Sherman bas caused this whole matter to be investigated, and thoe result s that Ayer Is PULLY VINDICATED, and Moore’s attack found to bo absolutely groundless. Inquiry also develops the fact that Moore himsclf did not discover the frauds thnt he announced with such a flourish as the result of his work, but that he was sent from the olfice with full dircctions cs to methods of proceedlug and deseriptions of fulquitics he could bring o light if he followed his Instruc- tlons. Even with the pld wbich his specific in- structions gave him, he waos guilty of exsctly the neglect and fallure which i bis report ho charged on Col. Ayer. » PUBLIC BUILDINGS.
