rode, hour after hour, up hill and down hill,
now crossing a narrow stream, now broad
er one, into and across arroyas, through
what seemed to be dense forests and out
again on the sandy plains, never once stop
ping, not even speaking a loud word, tn e
whole idea being bent on the early arriv al
at some specified point. Night began to
break into morning and morning into broad
er day; the sun came up in all its western
splendor, and yet our travellers never once
spoke of stopping. IL must have been 8
O'Clock, when all at once the rein of the
chestnut stallion was grasped and a halt
called. And now for the first time since
midnight DIR. Bishop was allowed to look
around him, his forced blindness having
been removed by his guides
They had halted immediately in front of
a small, but neat appearing, log house, the
door of which stood open. Only three per-
sons were IN sight, the two strangers, com
panionS in the nights ride, and another
man HON the doctor had not seen before.

OF water and refreshing bath, and by that

tient, but breakfast was soon disposed of,
the bacon and beans being devoured with a
relish, and then the patient was disclosed
lying upon pile of Navajo blankets in one
corner Of the log building.
"lie must have been a man 30 years of
age, black hair, black eyes. and full six feet
tall, and heavy set in proportion, but every
pound of weight seemed to be muscle" said
DIR. Bishop. Il knelt down beside him and
found that the wound was Immediately over
the heart, and that it had been made by
large-sized revolver"
The preliminary examination and few
questions elected the fact that although 45
callbre ball was still inside, vet ii was BY no
means dangerous. The ball was probed for
aud extracted, TIE patient never utterlng a
complaint. The wound was bandaged up,
and application prepared for its dressing,
and the surgeons mission was ended. All
day and the first part Of the evening was
spent at the camp and then the horses were
again >aduled, and the ride homeward
only a repetition Of the night before, includ-
Ing the blIndtoding Of the doctor.
I'VE arrived in Williams at 4 a. m, before
anybody was moving" said DR. Bishop,

THE CONVENTION.
Speculation as TO Who Will be tho
Man.
THURMAN's NAME MEETS APPROVAL.
A Review Of the Different Aspirants and
Their Chances for the Honon-
The Contest Drawing to
Close.

COLUMBUS, June 1S.-The name of Thur.
man is used much like that OF Sherman at
the Republican convention. Sherman
then would have been glad to take the
nomination, but he feared the election.
The feeling is such that Thurman could
have the nomination if he wanted it, not
withstanding the states of Pendleton,
Payne, Bookwalter and others. He is,
however, being taken at his word, and the
candidates are fighting it out.
Hoadly's Friends
have plenty Of funds, and will try to hang
the convention several days, il necessary.
Their opponents accuse him Of having a
barrel Of free-tap, and one of the old Bour-
bon school who objects to Hoadly as Half
breed that came into the party in 1876,
and another Bookwalter, said with him
they should have platform of free whisky
free Sunday, free religion, free trade and
free everything" OF the contest for the
election of members of the Democratic
State Central Committee the same corre-
sponGent says: "Pendleton and his oppo-
nerts are contending for the
Control Ofthe Machine,
as this organization will have great intlu.
ence with the memberselect of the Legis-
lature and in securing their election. Dur
ing the canvass the members Of the Gener.
al Assembly will be put under obligations
that will hold when the Senatorship comes
up. John G. Thompson, ex-Sergeant.at at.
Arms of the House, is Pendleton's s man for
