The Louisville Posts Washington
correspondent gives this as Col. Os-
car Turner's explanation of lis de-
feat in the First District:
"You see they put up one-legged
fellow against me this time. He lost
leg in the Confederate service, and
had a good deal of sympathy in our
district. lie didn't attack my record
at all, or give me any chance to talk
back, but just went around telling
about his losing the'leg on the battle.
field, and his wife coming to him
wiping the death sweat from his face
staunching the blood and saving his
life. OF course l couldn't reply Il
that sort of stuff, and the result was
that lie worked up personal sympa
thy for that missing leg that beat me
They tried everything with two leg
in the district against me in the las
six years, and l beat them all bu
when they got this one-legged maj
on the track had to give up
Another very potent reason for hi
defeat was that l0,503 Democrats il
the district were tired of the "OlC
Outlaw"

When donkey was introduced on

When donkey was introduced on
a stage at the Casino the other day
and designated as "Burchard" by the
low comedian, the son of Doctor b.
expressed indignation and compelled
the ribald jester to respect the emf
nent divine's gray hair. But in the
same comic opera "a damned noun
tain goat" was introduced and adj
dressed as "Ben Butler" Nobody
interposed to protect either Butler or
the goat from this ridicule. Butler
has no sensitive son, and he doubtless
considers it compliment to have
his name associated with so wild
and so fragrant an animal as Capri
cornus.-New York World.
