QUEER POLITICS
Resorted to by Democratic RoushS In
Ohio,
Who Stone and Seriously Injure Gen.
Bushnell.

SPRINGFIELD, o., Nov. 2.
At half past twelve O'Clock this morning,
General Asa S. Bushnell, who was the CEN
tral figure in the great republican demon
stration held here last evening, was assaulted
BY gang of rouehs as he was going home
and badly injured. When only a short dis
tance from his home, General Bushnell was
accosted by crowd, one of whom asked a
question which was courteously answered.
Without warning, and evidently with con-
certed action. the crowd threw a shower of
stones at the general. He was knocked and
beaten by the crowd, who declared he should
never be governor of Ohio.
His surgeon pronounces him dangerously
hurt, being terribly cut about the head and
face and several of his teeth knocked out and
he is badly bruised. 1t is yet too soon to
predict what the result of his injuries may
be. No arrests have yet been made.

powders. by the soluble phosphstes, the very
nutritive property of bread, and the bone
producing element of nature. II 10 certainly
