Tribune prior to the counting Of the cleo
torsl vote, simply foreshsdowed an anti
ConklinE policy, ard resulted from an
interview had between Garfield and Reid
on the occasion OF Garfeld's first visit to
Washington after his election. The Re
pIblicdn'S informant, rs early as jan
usry, was assured that no friend Of Grant

Miss Wilson wished and was about
to join the Baptists of st. Louis. She
made an attempt to reach the officiating
minister breast deep in the water, but
her cork leg was seized with unwonted
activity. Miss Wilson knew nothing
of the law of gravity, and was not to
blame. She was suddenly reversed in
the water. The minister feelingly
righted her up, and observing the grin
ming of the spectators at the solemn
scene, asked Miss Wilson to please net
do that again. He was innocently ig-
norant of the cause of the dirturbance
of her equilibrium. He gently led the
maiden out, when with a wild shrek
she fell backward and her lively leg
shot cut of the water. The minister
made half a dozen efforts, but could
Rot keep the convert right end up long
enough to baptize her. The spectators
fed precipitately to give vent to their
feelings. Miss Wilson fip-f1opped
ashore indignant and amazed, >and
went and joined the Presbyterians.
