LAPHAM WINS THE LAP. The cour

LAPHAM WINS THE LAP. The coun.
try breathes %freer! That is to say all
decent men may now cease to stop their
nose and ears in avoidance of the dis
gushing stencil which has flowed from
the capitol of the chief State of the
Union, during four months past. As
stated last week, Warner Miller. the
wooden-headed wood ~pulpist, was
shosen United States Senator rjce
vicious Platt. The friends OF Conk-
ling held out five days longer. When
some three or four of them went into a
conference with the Garfield faction,
who were supporting f.. G. Lapham.
After the usual speeches, the conference
agree to call a caucus. This was a
back down by the 'Half-Breeds' who
had repeatedly sworn they would net
60 into caucus But they had found
they must ''stoop to conquer" The
caucus was held; Conkling received p
votes; Lapham % votes. He was de.
clared the nominee, and the stalwarts
gave up the fight. Lapham was imme-
date elected; and there was quite a
love feast between the factions.
Conkllng te'cgraphed from New
York thanking his % supporters, as
"a Spartan band" whose heroic courage
and fortitude would descend to the
"Archieves of G~ravity'(as Cuffee Mayo
would say), and in the near future
crown them with credit! Conkling
takes his defeat very coolly, aud has
since called at the White House TO
express sympathy with Garfield in his
al appArnuc ralansa Ca,G>1l -
the news Of Lapham's election, ejacula-
ted Thank God, for that!' and call
ed for a wing Of cold chicken. Secre-
tary Blaine receives many congratula-
tlons. He has whipped out all of his
opponents, and to. day holds the reins
of unlimited power.

that the Miss Gertrude Blood whom
be married on Thursday was the daugh
ter of a rich country gentleman, in no
wise related to ''Col. JIM the DADDY
of ''Iula," the daughter of Mrs. Blood,

that a statement should be ~telegraphed

Of the Associated Press, and be accept

OF the Union, yet have not a particle of
truth, except as to the name Of the

rascal, who has already killed seven
men since his escape from Jail two
months ago. But the Sheriff did not
act very CALAMITY. He hid in a cabin
at Sumner after having information
that the KID would come at a GER
tam hour to buy some meat. The out
law no sooner stepped inside Of the
door IN bis stockinged feet than he saw
Garrct crouchlng at the foot of the bed.

editor Of the Bunncr, E. K. Dudley,

other colored editors, and a large ma

that he was not far from deaths door

his wound was being dressed by the

They decided to make an opening il

low the mouth of the wound and insert
a tube to drain the pus caused by the
fostering bullet. 1t was done and had
a good effect.
