Aid.. Jan. noun" 1 4 James G. Blaine bad the distinguish- fill lionor of beinr? sliown the door at Lehman's ball Tuesday night for conduct that was not in keepiug with rules that govern the local Four Hundred. After the performance at the Academy yesterday afternoon be, with other members of the eom V...- pany of amateurs who took part in Fr Diavolo, attended a supper at which wine was served very liberally. He imbibed very freely consequent ly felt rather hilarious. One of the ladies felt bo completely worn out that he" went to sleep. After sup per Mr. Blaine attended the geruiau at Lehman's hall Society here was largely represented and the affair was one of the brilliant affairs of the season. Mr. Blaine danced and seemed to enjoy himself immensely until his shoes began to hurt, when he deliberately sat down in the mid die of the floor and toek them off. The sensation produced can better lie imagined than described. Subse quently he put them on again and the escapade would probably have been passed by had not, Mr Blaine so far forgotten himself as to tickle a young lady's shoulder. This act was resented by Mr. J. Ridgeley Trimble, who, without further ado hustled the young son of the Secre tary of Sate out of the door. Where Mr. Blaine subsequently landed is unknown. The dance was continu ed without him. Mr. George M. Pulman, the pos sessor of 150,000, recently said to a correspondent, when asked how it felt to be a raillionare: "I have never thought of that. But now that you mention it, I believe that I am no better off certainly no happier than I was when I didn't have a dol lar to my. name, and had to work from tkvlight till dark.

He attended the Missou ri Legislature while in session, and took a train for Kansas City. The King bowled up so frequently it be came necessary to put him to bed Arrangements had been made for his reeeption at Kansas City, and it would be an unpardonable offense for him not to respond. Mr. James N- Burns who died a representative in Congress, was adorned in the King's toggery: and at the proper time spoke to the assembled thou sands. Among other things, he re marked he had heard of Kansas City's wonderful progress in his far off home, whieh was greeted with great enthusiasm. .Nearly All For Cleveland. Montgomery. Ala., Jan. 2-t.

Walsenberg, Col., Jan. 23 Once more Bob Ford, the slayer of Jesse James, is a principal iu a shooting scrape. It is not his fault, nor that of his opponent, that no graves were dug in Walsenburg yesterday. J. 1. Haiden runs a sitloou between the town and the mines. He and Ford have not been on good terms for some time. The two men were shoot- ing j craps Wednesday niht and quarreled over the stakes. Thev ad journed to the bar for a drink and the quarrel was renewed. Both men began firing rapidly at each other. . They were so close that each ote i was trying to knock the other's gun j out of the way, and as a consequent j the bullets new in every direction. The bystanders who were iu the room at the time began crawling ui der tables and hiding behind the bar.' Ater the smoke of battle had cleared off it was discovered that Harden had been shot in the shoul der, the ball going through and coni ng cut in tiie back, and was alfco shot in the hand. Ford was also hit i in tle foot and was badlv burned abeut the face with powder. Both men' were arrested. Beth guns had seen service before, the jine used by Ford is the one with whuih he shot Jesse James and which he has carried with him ever sinc4 that event, some ten years ago. Hardeus revolver is the one which Pete Foley used when he shot Jack Edwards some months ago. Woe ami Gray Reunion Proposed. Mouticello, 111., Jan. 25. Maj. Lamar Fountaine, the noted Confed erate soldier, and author of "All Quiet on the Potomac," has sent a request to the Grand Army com rades here and throughout the north that there be held at Chicago or St. Loojs a grand reunion of the Sol diers who wore the blue and the gray, to last eight or ten days, where the survivors of the two armies can hold a genuine reunion of hearts and hands such as has never been held since the war. He promises that the boys who were the gray will come in large numbers. Globe Democrat. The Senatorial contest in Illinois A is aparently as far from solution as it was this time last week. The vote stands: Gen. Palmer, D. 101, Got. Oglesby, R. 100, and Streeter, A. 3; necessary to a choice, 103. The democrats are confident that they can secure the two votes necessary to the election of Palmer, while the republicans are equally as confident that Oglesby will capture the plum In the mean time the three alliance members are holding the legislature at a dead lock, costing the state thousands of dollars per day, for what reason they alone can teH, cer tainly they do not expect that 101 democrats or 100 republicans are going to desert their faith and come over to their man. But then if that body is hke the average State legis- tures it may be a good thing thft state, if they stay tied during the whole of the session. for up A Noted Desperado. Sacramento, Cal., Jan. 24.
