Would be Assassin Once Endeavored
 to Kill President Hayes.

Not half a dozen people krow that eX-Presidcnt Hayes was once the tar get for an assa sins bullet. in fact, until recently knowledge Of the fact has h en locked up in the breast of Mr. w. G. Deshler the prominent banker of this city. who, if not an eye-witn ss to the occurrence. bore such intimate re- lationa to MT Hayes that he was in full possession of all the facts. It was on Mr. D shler's advise that the matter was. suppressed and never reached the carts of the public, says the Cincinnati Enquirer Even now pr Deshler is ayers. to talking on the subject. though all occasion for s crecy has long since ceased.

Had the fact been known at the time that an attempt was made upon his life a wave of rage would have gwept the country.
 The wOuld-be assassin was never dis covered nor the cause which led him to attempt MT. Hayes lifs. It was considered the deed of a crank. and rather than stir up other cranks in the country to a possibly successful at tempt of the same kind. the matter was hushed up. and with the exception of Mr Hayes and Mr Deshler, no one, until very recent years has ever known the facts connected with the circum- stance.

Tn, building was uf large proportions and highly innam- mable. It was a block north of Pinal creek where the foot bridge crosses. Tn. fire originated from a lamp with which a lO-y-ar-old boy was trying to develop kodak pictures.

bring out more comprehensive
statement from Senator McLaurin:
''Senator MCLaurin, of South

name has been stricken from the
Democratic caucus roll, and this
has been done with the indorse
Dent of tho gentleman hims .if.
For seme time tho junior senator
from South Carolina has been
votiag with the Republicans on
every occasion where there was d
division on anything like political
lines. TO Democratic friends who
have spoken with him on the sub.
Jsct, he has contsntsd himself
with declaring his votes are in ac
sordanco with his conscientious
idea OF what was correct, and has
SAID that he would con,inute to
vote as he thought right, despite
all tho criticisms of his Democratic
colleagues. He has up to the
present declared that he was
Democrat, and that it would be
found, when tho matter came TO a
test, that his votes met the approval
or the most progressive element
OF Southern Democracy. Now,
however, he has formally separated
himself from his party.
