In the language of the ring the Chicago
situation would be recorded to-day, as
first knock down for Blaine, ;" or rather
for the anti-Grant combination, the issue
at present being Grant against the field.
The abandonment of the unit rule by the
Grant leaders has been so certainly forced
upon them as to demonstrate their weak
ness, while it at the same time takes from
them their chief reliance for success. 1t
is limited that their future efforts will be
to buy the needed number of delegates,
but as that is a game that two can play
at, it is not likely to succeed. The strong
probability is that the Republican party
will be fortunate enough to escape the
nomination of both Blaine and Grant.
1t will be decenter, but hardly stronger,
with Edmunds. If its leaders would be
less intent upon their personal ambitions
and revenges, and had time to devote
to the consideration of the good of their
party, they might select a candidate whom
it would be difficult to defeat. But they
are not in the humor to make it likely
that they will dos

4 SHOULDER-IiITTEH,
A slippery Thief Who Travelled Oh His Mus

A slippery Thief VIII" Travelled Oh His Mus
Gle.
Harrisburg Patriot.
The Patriot yesterday morning stated
that 4 thief who had stolen two horses AMI
Il buggy from MIR. Porter Thompson, of
Mexico, Juniata county. on Sunday night,
had breakfasted the horses in this city yes
terday morning and taken the road for
MiddletOwn. Detectives Anderson and
Roat received a telegram shortly after the
thief had left this city describing him.
They at once procured buggy and started
in pursuit. They received information
that the thief had gone in the
direction of Hummelstown and did
not discover that they had
been put on the wrong trail until
they had travelled 4 long distance. After
driving nearly thirty miles they returned
to HummelstOwn, where the horse gave
out. From IlummelstOwn the detectives
sent Constable Boozer, and another man
over towards Lancaster county. They
overlook and captured the thief near
Springville, Lancaster comfy. The thief
begged his captors not to bind him, as he
had many friends in EliZabethtOwn, and
they complied with his request. Consta-
ble BOOzer got into the wagon with the
ahead. Before they had gone very far Con-
stable BOozer left the wagon in a startingly
abrupt manner. He had been hit behind
the ear by the thief and knocked clear out
into the the road. When he recovered suf-
iiciently to take his bearings. he saw his
late prisoner driving at a rapid rate i'll an
opposite direction from that in which they
had been going. The thief, however. die!
not enjoy his liberty any great length OF
time for before very long he was
recaptured by constable from Eliza
BEETHOVEN and an assistant. Ills new
captOrs took HIM out of the wagon and
taking position on either side of him
marched him toward ElizabethtOwn Sue
denly for the second time the thief gave
Il fOrcible example of his pugilistic dexter
ity, and with two rapid blows knocked
both men down and briskly took his de-
parture. His captors, rs soon is they
could recover their equilibrium, banged
away with their pistols, followed AMI
shortly recaptured him. This time they
succeeded in getting the troublesome Gus
toner into the railroad station ut Eliza
BEETHOVEN. Leaving his companion on
guard the constable started out to send u
telegram announcing the capture to Iiar-
risburg. The thief of course did not
let such fine opportunity slip. With
great prOmDtitude he knocked his captor
down and fled. This time he made good
his escape, for nothing has been heard of
him since. The constable from Elizabeth
town brought the stolen horses and wagon
to Harrisburg last night.

Two Robbers Killed by Revolver-Shots
After Numbering Woman.
A desperate attempt at robbery oc-
Cured near Clear Lake, Colling county,
Texas. A farmer named Bradley left two
hundred dollars received for cattle with his
wife for safe keeping. A stranger asking
to stay all night was given pallet on the
gallery. At midnight he saw two
persons, who he supposed belonged
to the family, enter, and hearing cries
Of murder he peeled through the
blinds and saw woman on the bed with
her throat cut. Snatching six-shooter the
stranger sprang toward the door and fired,
killing both parties. Mounting horse,
he rode to the nearest neighbor's, and, &C
companied by party Of four, returned.
Mrs. Bradley and both robbers were dead,
one of whom was shoe through the heart,
the other through the head. The robbers
proved to be Mrs. Pruett and her daugh-
ter, the former GO years old and the owner
of considerable property, and having an
Independent inheritance of $4,000.
