COL G. E. Bowman, commissioner CT
agriculture of the State of Kentucky, tells
this unwritten story concerning the man on
horseback: At the time of Van Dorn's raid
on Holly Springs, Grant had his headquar-
ters IN the house of relation of the colonels,
Mr.. Heber Craft, now living in McComb
City, Louisiana. One day at the dinner
table a remark was made concerning the
permanent occupancy of the town by the
federals, when Mrs. Craft, in a woman's
characteristic earnestness, said, "Don't be
too sure of that. Our boys will be along
shortly, and then we will see about the per-
manent occupancy" She had no knowledge
of Van Dorn's intended raid, but made the
remark in bantering style only. Great
was her surprise to hear, in less than fifteen
minutes afterward, that the rebels were in
town and after the man on horseback, In his

tOhicsgo Tribune
Fred. Hassaurek, editor of the Cincinnati
| VolEsblatt, the leading and most inhuen-
tial German newspaper published in Ohio,
was captured at the Grand Pacific yesterday
by Tribune reporter. Said he: "Ohio is
but one way, and that is for Sherman"
| "Is there no second choice?"
"Well, Blaine would be the second choice
of great many in preference to Grant"
"Could Grant carry Ohio?"
"No. don't think that would be posi-
bIe.''
"Why not2''
"For this reason: If he loses only three
out of every 100 Republican votes, or, say,
only two out of every three refuses to vote,
and the other one of these casts his ballot
for the Democratic candidate, Ohio is gone
for the Republicans. base this on the vote
cast at the last Presidential election,
and that is certainly very moderate
calculation. But Grant will lose
more than 8 per cent. of the Republican
votes of the State. I think it is fair to say
that he will lose 15 per cent. think that
Grant would be beaten in Ohio by 10000
votes. There is perfect stampede"
sis this principally among the Germans"
"This sentiment is limited to no particular
nationality. / find the anti Grant and anti
third term sentiment Just as strong among
Americans. / mean, of course, Americans
who are not politicians, as those who are
politicians generally don't like to commit
themselves, and they say that it is the Ger
man element that threatens to drift away.
But the feeling is just the same among the
Americans, with the exception that the Ger
mans are more outspoken in their opposi-
tion.'
"What is the opinion of the people in
Ohio in regard to the manner by which
Logan secured the delegation from Illinois
for Grant?''
"The people who have followed the mat
ter up are indignant about it. Mr.. Sher-
mans friends might have forced the unit
rule IN Ohio, but he wanted to be fair to the
other candidates, and allow the districts TO
name their delegates, as has always been
the custom In Ohio of the Republican party.
Each district elected its own delegates, and it
is the only practice that does not give rise
to feelings of bitterness aud dissension.
Still, 1 don't think Grant will be the nominee.
And for the reason that among the
Grant men are some who are not all Looan's.
but who, although they prefer Grant, will do
the best for the party after careful sur
vey Of the situation. And when these men
ses that Grant is the only candidate who
meets with an organized and determined op-
position, they will think before they attempt
to force his nomination against the convic-
tions of very large majority. think the
fight against Grant is virtually decided, and
after Grant is defeated Sherman stands an
excellent chance to become the winning
man."

HARMONY Y.

The watchword of the Chicago convention
is harmony. Every detail of the organize
ton was ARA nged with view to harmony.
Unless the outward appearances of brother
ly concord were placed before the people the
members of the convention could hardly ex-
pect to come and ask the suffrages of the
public. Ae,
Ii is practically settled that the convention
will be harmonious. The members are men
of discretion, and for this reason they are
willing to make every reasonable concession.
If it shall appear early in the game that
Grant is the choice of majority of th 10
convention, there will be general stampede
in his favor. fit shall appear that Blaine
is the fsvorite, the same thing will be mani
tested. The attempt will be made, at any
rate, to convey the impression to the people
at large that the Republican party is har-
monious.
Harmony is an excellent thing. 1t is es-
sential to the success of any party. But
under present circumstances the prospect Of
harmony in the Republican party is hope
less. The issues raised have been too di-
verse, the candidates named too objection
able to hope that complete harmony can be
secured.
There is certainty of harmony at the Chi
cago convention as long as the bosses retain
control. If by any chance they
lose command of the forces,
there will be a lively ruction, not
otherwise. The fictitious claim that the
party is harmonious will be reiterated if tn q |
convention now in session does not break up
In a row.
beneatn the surface, however, there is an
undercurrent which leads very pointedly to
Democratic success. After the convention
OF the present week shall have been held
there will be large element that is dissasis-
ned with the result, and that element will |
turn in to compass the defeat of the party.

GOOD PROSPECTS,

The Chicago convention met yesterday
and was duly organized. There was the ut
most good feeling-on the surface. Came
ron, Conkling and Logan were conspicuous.
though not obtrusive-a part of their pro-
gramme. They were seen in the temporary
officers selected, and in the committees ap-
pointed. Otherwise they discreetly remained
in the shade.
There appears to be no good reason to
suppose that the bosses of the party have re-
leased their grip upon the throats of the dele
gates. There have been no perceptibIe changes
in the status of the delegates. Those who
have been pledged still declare that they vii
carry out their pledges. Those who have
individual preferences but are uninstructed
will follow their own will. Each
candidate holds his own o-day, as he did
week ago, with Grant a long distance in
advance of all competitors. He is ahead OF
his rivals in votes, and he is immeasurably
ahead of them in the men who are conduct
ing his canvass. They have no equals in the
domain of political intrigue. They are the
masters of every device known to political
life, and will make use of them all. AS vel
he is the champion of the field, and will
probably carry off the honors to- day. But 9
few hours will settle the question, and specu-
lation is useless.
Apropos of the nomination, however, there
are other considerations that will be consid-
cred by the public. The Chicago delegates
have become embroiled to such an extent as
to render real harmony out of the question
Grant may win, or Blaine
may win, but in either event the party
will be hopelessly divided, and
the Democrats will have an easy victory. No
better opportunity could be presented than
the present. With Grant, or Blaine, or Sher-
man as the candidate of the Republicans, any
person named by the Cincinnati convention
would be certain of election, Neither of
the candidates named on the Republican side
have anything to commend them to the suf-
frages of the public. Grant has already re-
ceived all the reward that his military

personal aggrandizement than for the good
of the country. Sherman is theoretical fin
ancier, whose theories, carried into practice,
have wrought incalculable disaster. A very
respectable number of members of the
Republican party would certainly oppose
the election of either, and support the claims
of any respectable Democrat nominated at
Cincinnati. The indications are certainly
propitious for the Democratic candidate,
whoever he may be.

train Grant left his uniform and sword at
Mrs. Crafts house. The train was barely
out of sight, having on board Grant and his
staff, when Van Dorm rode up to Mrs.
Crafts house in the hope of bagging the fed
eral commander and the whole party. He
found Mrs. Grant, but not the general. Mrs.
Graft, who was not only true Southern
woman, but true, high minded lady, hid
the generals sword and uniform, for fear
their capture, after what she said at the din
ner table, would make Grant suspect she
had violated the rules of hospitality in at
tempting to betray hiulsto Van Dorm. She
said that Grant, on his return to Holly
Springs, was surprised and greatly rejoiced
to find his trappings safe, but he nor the
chronicler of that raid knew why they were
not captured.

MANKATo, June 2.-The Grand Lodge Of
Odd Fellows assembled yesterday afternoon
at 8 o'clock; about 100 members were present.
Some time was consumed in receiving creden
tials Of new members and comforting the de-
gree, and it was about O'Clock before the
work of the session com necned, but when it
did, it was pushed with energy.
THE GRAND MASTERS REPORT
was presented. He says everything is healthy
and prosperous. Eight new lodges have been
instituted since last year. He recommends re-
stricting the State and thinks the Pennsylva-
MIA system of electing grand officers should be
adopted. His report is model OF brevity.

is very full and valuable. He states that the
membership on Jan. l, was 3,445, a gain Of 25O
during the year. He takes strong ground
against the dormant membership" amend
ment, and thinks it unwise and deleterious.
He recommends biennial sessions of the Grand

diem of members. The grand lodge treasury
is In healthy condition. and has g., 900 on

they had witnessed one of the many wonders
of this republic. Edison has also realized,
in way, the old alchemist's dream of trans
muting base metals into gold. He receives
gold tailings that are worthless by the usu-
al methods of separating and sitting, and
finds gold in paying quantities. He has re-
eeived thousands of samples of otherwise
barren ore and found many of them rich in
gold. Thus Menlo Park has become a won

A Ne1U Cure for Hydrophobia.


NJ. Lesserteur has just given publicity to a

effects are similar to those of strychnine and

effcaciousness are given, but is of opinion that
the property recently shown to belong to rab-

young ladies to play poker so admirably is
cheap at twice the money.
