A Gr'nsr.
The Bloody Jack Knife.

From Mr.. Nanllusen, who arrived
from Rockford last evening, we lean ofa
serious cutting affray that occurred at
. mining camp situated five
or six miles from Rockford. Yesterday
morning at Ave o'clock a man by tho
name Of Young and another party whose
name Mr.. VanHusen could not learn,
had fight in which Young got the
wost Of it. After the brush between the
two men, they adjourned to saloon to
wet it down. While standing al the bar
Young fired bunch Of quarz at his vic
torious friend and then ran out OF the
saloon. The man who was struck gave
chase, and after running for some dis
tance caught Young, and pulling out
jack knife he proceeded to cut Young
up into small parcels. As soon as assis-
tance could be rendered it was found
that Young only had seventeen gaping
wound on his body, commencing at his
feet and extending to the top of his
head. DR. zimmerman of TjtiiIl0f,i was
Immediately sent for. Ioungs wounds
are of dangerous character. Unless
good care is taken Of him he stands q
good chance Of going over the dark
river. At the time Mr.. VanHusen left

The Attempt upon President JacAson's
Life

The assault upon President Garfield
i the third that has been made upon
the lives of American Presidents. The
other virtims were President Jackson
and Lincoln With he facts as 10 the
assassination of the latter the public is
thorough|y familiar, but there is less

temp: on President Jackson's life. 1t
occurred at the capital building in Wash
ington, January 80, 1850. On that day
the president attended the funeral Of
Hon Warren r. Davis, q representative
from South Carolina. AS he came into
the portico of the capitol from the
rotunda a person stepped forward from
the crowd into the space in front of the
president and snapped pistol at him,
the PERCUSSION Of which exploded with
out igniting the charge. This person
was struck down by blow from Lieut.
enant Gedney, ofthe navy, who happen
ed to be near. He also received blow
promptly aimed at him by Mr. Secretary
Woodbury. but before receiving either
blow snapped Il second pistol at the pre-
sident. The cap Of that lock also ex-
ploded without igniting the charge
The perpetrator Of this daring outrage
was of course Immediately seized and
taken in custody by the marshal Of the
district, by whom he was carried to the
city hall, where he underwent an ex

GAP CORRESPONDENCE

BuFFALo GAP, u. T. July Is, 1881.
EpTroRs CnRoNICLE.-In recent is
sues Of your paper "our" Hot Springs
have been carried prominently before
the public, and as an evidence of the in
tluenee and wide circulation Of the
CHRoNIcIE, it is gratifying to note the
daily arrivals from abroad of those i'll
search of perfect health, those who have
read of The wonderful cures effected,
and those whose faith in ancient mar
ratiyes leads them to the belief that the
waters are again troubled, and whoso-
ever well may come and partake Of the
water Of life freely. 1t would occupy
too much Of ysur valuable space TO give
tho names of all visitors; will only
name select few who are persons OF
great prominence, acknowledged cui-
ture, ard refined taste and the fact OF
their having honorcd our locality with
their presence will be sufficient guaran-
tee Of the genuineness Of our claim to
be ranked among the first watering
places Of the land
Arrived per private conveyance Gen.
X. Cloud and family from Pine Ridge
this gentleman is Of high social stand
ing, and bears war record which will
compare with that Of any chieftain an
cient or modern; he is rather eccentric
however, more particularly SO with re-
gard to apparel; being very persistent
in his demands for no clothing atal).
The honorable geEtleman's demands IN
this particular are complied with, and
he is corrcspondingly happy and ui.-
prcsentable. When robcd in the solitude
of his own originality he leeds not the
elevated nazal organ OF the pale-faccd
heathcn, and exercises his right to do as
he pleases. This dignitary is profound
ly impressed with the great virtue pos
sesscd by these waters, and is desirous
of remaining the entire season. Gen
II. Cloud is accompanied by his fellow
countryman, IOung-man-laugh-a h-at-the-
gals, who, as his name would imply, is
of very independent turn. He would
be called AdOnis for short. This gentle
man occupies rooms at the hotel and is
the centre of admiration and envy, he Is
more fashionable than the General and
maintains that "bcauty unadorncd IL
adorned the most"
The General and his friends have
created quite sensation in fashionable
circles here and are looked upon with
great favor, the ladies of the party are
very amiable and beautiful and their
summer costumes are very much ad-
mired by the gentlemen guests, but are
not free from criticism entirely as we
hear some murmuring among our lady
friends.
We would regret very much to lose
this party as they are liberal to fault,
scattering their wealth promiscuously.
Then too they are easily accommodated,
are not choice as to the location of
rooms, and in fact are a most desirable
class Of guests In a new country like
ours.
/ suggest that n committee OF invita-
ton be appointed by the Mayor and
Councilmen of Custer City, to wait upon
the party and tender the freedom Of
your city. The General manifests
desire to visit points of interest in the
Hills and We should let no opportunity
escape us to render his stay among us
pleasant.
