One day during the recent peoples

master. Gates made his way to friends
somewhere not very far distant, and
remained there until his wounds
would enable him to make an effort
to reach the southern lines. Finally
the opportunity presented itself; he
was dressed in a Federal uniform,
mounted on a good horse, and with a
pair Of trusty pistols, started on his
perilous venture.
He had not gone many miles, when
he was met in the road by two Fed
eral cavalrymen. Instantly, although
able to use but one arm, he drew one
one of his revolvers. commanded them
to dismount and throw down their
weapons and surrender.
They were not long in obeying
orders, for they saw that they had q
veteran soldier and . desperate man
to deal with. Securing their arms
and one of their horses, the Confed-
crate pursued his journey in q gallop
and reached the southern lines the

the Widest Enthusiasm.
CHICAGO, June %.

At precisely 1922 o'clock this morn
ing by the big ,ime-piece that ticks
behind the speakers table in the wig
wan, Grover Cievelsnd's nomination
for president of the United States b.
came al assured fact-equal in any
national convention in the history of
this county; so at least say the old
timers.
1t was few minutes of three O'Clock
when Burke Cochran, the big. lus-
ty.Iunged, eloquent orator of
Tammany Hall, closed speech
in support OF Senator David b Hill.
Cochran had made strong speech in
favor of his man. There could be no
doubt Of that. 1t was well received
too, by the delegates and the Cleve-
land leaders felt trifs uneasy about
the effect The address might have had
on the men who were to name
the democratic cand date for the
presidency. Cochran's address
has all the more force because
his words poured out in a sort of pa
thetic stream calculated to work upon
the sympathies of his hearers. Mr..
Cochran was verv careful to make it
clear that he spoke in no. spirit
of revenge or malice. More than
once he assured the delegates that
he was talking to them in all kindness,
and for the supreme good of the DEM
ocratic party. Once he remsrked
that he was the admirer of Grover
Cleveland and entertained a warm
personal respect for the man. He
was loudly applauded. The scenes
that trauspired during the casting of
the ballot, beggars description. In
sanely wild is mild expression.

O'clock to-day, to finish business.
