Doors Against Dakota Dele
gates.
ST. LOUIS, June 5.-The spectators
and delegates became FESTIVE during the
long interval occupied in calling the
roll of states and the chairman was
obliged several times to enforce order
with his silver gavel.
When Kentucky was called and the
member for the committee on resolu-
tionS was announced to be Henry Wat
terSon, storm of applause swept
through the hall, which did not cease
for some minutes. There was also
much applause when Texas reported it's
member of the platform committee to
be George Clark.
Dakota's name being reached, C. d.
O'Brien, of Minnesota, spoke up, say
ing: SIN Dakota there is contest.
There are two delegations from Dakota
attending this convention. No commit
tee or delegates from Dakota should
participate in the proceedings of this
convention until that contest is de-
cided."
Chairman White-Do you make a
motion?
MI. " DIlcll-l move UlldU all parties
claiming to be delegates from Dakota
be excluded until the report of the
committee on credentials is made.
Chairman White--You make that as
an absolute motion, not as an amend
ment?
Mr.. O'Brien-Yes, sir, as motion.
That we exclude all delegates from
Dakota until the contest is determined.
Chairman White-The motion of Mr..
O'Brien, of Minnesota, there being a
contest in Dakota-is that all parties
claiming to be delegates from that terri
tory be excluded from participation
until after the report of the committee
on credentials is made and acted upon.
Is there second to the motion?

delegates and adopted unanimously.

committeeS-pla platform, permanent Or
ganiZation and credentials, would meet
at 5 p. M, the two latter in rooms adj
joining the convention hall, and the
committee on platform at the parlors of
the Southern hotel, the headquarters of
the Democratic national committee.

A KICKER FROM PoRKoPoLIst
But One Member of the Buckeye,
Delegation Opposed to Thur

ST. LOUIS, June Notwithstanding
the fact that the Ohio delegation re-
ceived the Indiana men last night with
open arms, but with the cold consola-
ton that Judge Thurman must and
would receive the forty-six votes of the
Buckeye state as unit, it was any
body's fight this morning. The delega-
ton went into prolonged session dur
ing the afternoon, and passed resolution
after resolution of Endorsement, but still
there were members who would not fall
in line. Robert Blee held back a long
time, and it required the adoption of a
unit rule to lead him from his Opposi-
ton. No sooner had this rule been
adopted than John Brady was on his
feet. He said: Gentlemen, you may
adopt any rule you like, but came from
Thurman. You may throw me out of
this caucus or intimate that my pres
ence is not desired and l will stay out,

Swallowed Lit Whole

ST. LOUIS, June 5.-A good story has
been circulated concerning the presenta-
ton of the silver gavel from Colorado to
the permanent chairman. Several cor
respondents rushed down to Colorado
after the speech by Tom Paterson and
inquired the name of the mine from
which the silver was produced. At a
rough guess Mr.. Paterson answered
that it was from the Samuel j. Tilden
mine. The correspondents accepted
the whole statement and swallowed it
without demurring.

LINCOLN AND SHERIDAN.


An Eyewitness Description of Their
Meeting at City Point.
Opposition now being at an end, it
was deemed advisable TO bring Sheri-
dan at the head of his cavalry corps
around by the White House and City
Point to the left flank of the army
Of the Potomac in time TO take
part in the closing scenes at Richmond
and Petersburg. To that end he left
the valley, pushing southwark until he
struck the railroad and canal, both OF
which were most eifectually destroyed
for miles. The former by heating and
twisting the rails, and the latter by
blowing up locks and waste weirs, ac-
complishing his work soquickly that he
met with little resistance. A full re-
port in writing was promptly made to
General Grant, and forwarded by
scouts, one of whom passed around to
the south OF Richmond. The second
went north, while the third passed di-
roctly through the city OF Richmond,
and was first TO reach City Point. He
was tall, why Virginian, with black
hair reaching 10 his shoulders, dressed
in Southern uniform. After dropping
the tent fly to conceal him Mr., Lincoln
was summoned TO receive from him the
report, The package consisted OF some
half dozen closely written sheets OF
tissro paper wrapped in tinfoil. The
President soon discovered it was In ci-
pler and surrendered it, remarkipg

lance 10 keep from being outwitted
Sometimes, when closely pressed, the
Indians will scatter in all directions
and II then becomes necessary TO take
up one trail and follow IL till tho band
comes together again. This is tedious
and trying work. and when the trail Is
lost. the scout must circle around to tho
right and left until 1t is found again.

ping in the same trucks which are made
by tho one In advance. During the
rniny season they will select their route
along the bed of somc ravinc, knowing
that thc first flow OF water will oblitcr-
ate ovcry sign. A favorito trick of the
ApaChns was TO ride rs far as they could
go inSo some box canyon then nban-
don their horses and scale the sides OF
the cliffs. In this way the troops could
not follow them without also aban-
doning their own stock and going on
foot.
One OF the hardest and most dangeH
Gus duties which the scout has to per-
form is the carrying ofdispatchcs back
ward and forward between the military
posts and the troops in the field. When
sent on such missions he invariably
goes alone, and his rides ure often for
hundreds of miles through an almost
unknown and hostile country. Some
scouts prefer to travel through an In
dian country during the nighttime,
and keep hidden away during the day;
but night rides can only be made by
those who are thoroughly acquainted
with the trails over which they must
pass. II is an error to suppose that
the genuine scout is always long-hair-
cd man, for the fact is that most of tho
scouts employed during late years wear
their hair cut close in regulation mill
tary style. The wearing of long hair
seems TO have been tho result of cir
cumstanccs rather than of choice, as
in former times there were few BARRIERS
on the frontier, and often many months
would elapse before man in active
service would have an opportunity to
either shave or have his hair cut. In
dians as rule admire long hair, and
have more respect for man whose
locks hang down over his shoulders.
For this reason some of the older
scouts refuse to have their hair cut; but
now that BARRIERS shops arc to be found
at every post, scouts are generally as
clean-shaven and as short-haired MS
any other class OF men.
Taken as u whole, the life OF a scout
is Il dangerous and precarious exis-
tencc, fraught with innumerable hard
ships, and devoid of nearly everything
that is happy or bright The business
of guarding the lives and interests Of
other people is u thankless task which
seldom meets with any reward, and II
scouts declining years are usually
marked by penury aud want. In most
cases his last resting-place is an un-
kept grave in some lonely spot, and his
only monument rude head-board upon
which his name is scrawled. .- HYHiidm

THE MUSICAL SNAKE.
Confederate Soldiers RcptIlian Pc
Lost and Recovered.


Lost and Recovered.
In the year 1864 Confederate SOL
der from one OF the Louisiana regi-
ments came homo with one OF the young
men and spent his furlough at Vineland.
The soldier had n pet rattlosnake about
two feet long which he carried in an in
side pocket OF his shirt. The soldier
would whistle to the snake Dixie"
Bonnie Blue Flag and other popular
war tunes, which always had noticea-
BILE effect on the little snake. He used
| the root of some kind of herb as q
charm and n circle made on the floor or
| ground with the root the snake would
not dare attempt TO cross. Ono day
while out in the field after fodder for
his horse the soldier placed the snake
in his hat and put it upon the fence,
first running his root around the brim
of the hat so that the snake could not
crawl out. but there came a puff OF
wind and blew the hat off the fence,
and the influence of the charm being
swamp near at hand. The pretticst
thing about the snake was that he was
beautifully tattooed with different col
ored inks. The name of the snake
was "Dick," the initials of the soldier
and his regiment and the company and
G. 5. A. all beautifully tattooed on the
back of the snake. As time passed on and
lifted the war clouds and let in the sun
shine of peace and prosperity no more
was thought of the soldier and his little
rattlesnake Dick" till 1886 (twenty-
two years after the war), a negro wo-
man in passing the swamp discovered
Il very large rattlesnake, which, after
being killed, was found to have twenty
six rattles and two buttons, and his
hide, when stuffed held three pecks OF
bran, but all the tattooing had grown
out. Then how are We to know that it
was "Dick?' Why, when the woman
assumed n warlike attitude, "Dicbn
sprung his rattles and ratified off Dixie
in such notes as would put to blush

which he marched about one hundred
well-armed young rattlesnakes about
six feet in length, all rattling off BON

tho wiser until II had been translated.
The scout disappeared as quietly as he
had come, and soon after Sheridan's re-
port was laid before tho President, who
was intensely gratiilcd as he read OF tho
Union success. Two or three days lat
or General Sheridan left his cavalry at
White House and rode across tho
country TO City Point, where he
encountered Sherman in tho Ad-
jutant-Gencrars cabin describing
and pointing out on tho map TO
Meade his march across Georgia. Rob-
ort Lincoln hastened down to tho River
Queen (Mr. Lincoln's boaD to inform
the President that Little Phil is in"
Without exercising his Presidential
prerogative Mr.. Lincoln seized his hat
and hastcned up on the bluff to General
Grants headquarters camp. As soon
as he was seen approaching the Adult
tant Generals quarters conversation
ceased, and General Sheridan turned TO
learn the cause just in time to cncoun-
tor the President, who mt that moment
strodo in and without further ceremony
seized him by the hand, exclaiming as
he did so, General Sheridan"-and
then after marked pause of several
seconds, during which he scrutinized
Shcridan's slight figure from head to
foot, resuming-"wEen this war broke

handshaking and scanning went vigor-
ously on, Then, resuming, he closed
by a hearty, good humored burst:"Gen-
oral Sheridan, | have changed my mind"
The President turned on his heel and
departed. Sheridan had not spoken
word but his bushes would have done
honor to maiden, and he was now re,
lieved from further embarrassment By
Sherman who resumed his story. Few
men have ever received more sincere
compliment and fewer still, perhaps,
could lay just claim TO such an honor
an honor indeed, dare say, which he
cherished through life, as this was his
last as well as his first meeting with
