"EN-Gov. Foster, being an Ohio
man, was naturally selected by the
Sioux as the fit person upon whom
TO bestOW an honor. He accepted
the title of chief in their tribe with
the truthful remark that IAN Ohio
man never refuses anything.,"-
Leader.
The new chief ofthe Souix, Char
ley Foster, was given the name
of young Man Proud of His Tail,
by the Indians. If an Ohio man
would not decline an honor with
that title it is sure that he wouldn't
decline anything. The new chief
ought to use that tail of his to keep
the flies off Foraker, ifnothing else.
BY the way, the Ohio office seeker,
under the present administration,
has not had much opportunity of
refusing anything. AS long as h e
draws breath and mixes in politics,
"Calieo Charley" will not hear the
last of the name given him by the
Indians, and he will be expected
to commence all his speeches with:

tee, the members are much exercised con-
cerning it. The report was that State Chair
man Andrews had received S60, 900 and dis
tributed only SIS, 600 of it to have the bill
killed. Mr.. Andrews laughed tonight when
the matter was laid before him and intimated
the story was worthy of Munchausen.
But two members of the Judiciary General
Committee, Representative Kaufman. Of Lam
caster, and Representative Lytle OF Hunting
don, voted to report the bill affirmatively.

THE SOLID PARTY IN CANADA.
Loyalty to England Of the French Popula'

Loyalty to England Of the French Popula.
tion Of the Dominion.
Charles Dudley Warner in Harper's.l
Perhaps nothing will surprise the visitor
more than the persistency of the French
type in Canada, and naturally its aggres-
siveness. Guaranteed their religion, laws
and language. the French have not only
failed to assimilate, but have had hopes
maybe still have-of making Canada
French. The French national" party
means simply French consolidation, and
has no relation to the "nationalism" of Sir
John A. Macdonald. So far as the Church
and the French politicians are concerned,
the effort is to keep the French solid as a
political force, and whether the French are
liberal or conservative, this is the underlying
thought. The province Of Quebec is lib
ent hue from that of Ontario. The French
recognize the truth that language is so in
tegral part of the peoples growth that the
individuality of a people depends upon
maintaining it. The French have escaped
absorption in Canada mainly by loyalty to
their native tongue, aided by the concession
to them of their civil laws and their relig-
ious privileges.
The French have always been loyal to the
English connection under all temptations,
for these guarantees have been continued,
which could scarcely be expected from any
other power, and certainly not in legisla-
tive union of the Canadian provinces. In
literature and sentiment the connection is
with France; in religion, with Rome; in
politics England has been the guarantee Of
both. There will be no prevailing senti.
ment in favor of annexation to the United
%Io oR,s- ;t,

use the solid French mass as political

HARRISBURG, February 25.-The first
interesting thing in the proceedings OF the
House tonight was the passage of a resolu-
ton that when the House adjourns on
Friday it adjourn until the succeeding
Wednesday evening at o'clock. The in
tention, of course. is to give the members q
chance to attend the Inauguration of Gen.
eral Harrison, but there has thus far been
no action taken toward having the Legisla-
ture 60 as a body, and a great many of the
members intend to 60 home in preference to
elbowing their way through the crowds at
the national capital.
Another resolution in line with this one
was introduced by Representative Bean, OF
Montgomery, that a committee of five MEM
bers of the House be appointed to wait on
General Harrison when his train arrived at
Harrisburg tomorrow and invite him to
pay visit to the Legislature.
After Mr.. Kaufman had moved an amend
ment to make the committee consist of 204
members, or, in other words, the whole
House, the resolution was carried, and the
Speaker appointed as the committee Messrs.
Bean, of Montgomery; Andrews, of Craw-
ford; Connell, of Philadelphia; Wherry, Of
Cumberland, and Blair, of Greene.
The next resolution was laid on the table
by close vote. It was introduced by Mr..
Kratz, of Montgomery, and is as follows:
Resolved, That we do most cordially con-
gratulate President-elect Harrison on the con-
templated appointment of that prince of Amer
ican. statesmen, James G. Blaine, to the Pre-
knowing that through his instru-
mentality, his sagacious, progressive and yet
counsels, we shall again have a
foreign policy worthy the name, whose pulsa-
tions will be felt through all lands, be it in
London or at Berlin and thar our 60 600, 900 of
the most intelligent freemen in existence will
take their true position among the nations Of
the earth.

GIANT G0SHEN'S WILL.

His Divorce Suit Did Not Succeed, and His
Wife Claims Her Share.
SoMERvILLE, N. j., February 25.-It is
likely that the will of Colonel Routh
Goshen, Barnum's giant, who died last
week at Middlebush, N. j., will be offered
for probate in the Surrogate's Court at Som
erville next Monday. The giant left nearly
all his property to his adopted daughter,
and small legacy to q friend named
wickoff, who had attended him during his
last illness.
In getting his will drawn up, Goshen
seems to have overlooked the fact that his
divorce suit, began three years ago, failed,
and that he had a wife at the time of his
death. Mrs. Mary L. Goshen, row living
at Elgin, ILL.,, remembered it, however. She
has filed caveat, and will claim her rights
as widow. Her husband once gave her
the Clyde property, but after the close Of
the divorce suit, when the couple separated,
he bought it back from her. She thinks
she would like to recover it now, and her
lawyer Mr.. Van Cleef, has assured her that
this is case in which she may eat her
cake, and have it, too.

He Discovers a Silver Mine, and Offers

Wants to Escape.
MooRFIELD, W. VA, February 25.-
Silver mining upon an extensive scale is to
be begun in the mountains near here as soon
as the weather will permit. In connection
with the beginning of this industry there
is an interesting and somewhat un-
usual story. Almost from the period
of the first settlement of the country
there has been popular belief that silver
mine Of considerable richness existed some
where in the middle mountains, but al
though searching parties have tramped over
almost every foot of the territory, begin
ming their operations long before the war,
no trace of the vein was ever found by
white men.
About 1858. however, slave named
Cater accidentally found the silver-bearing
ledge and took the story to his master, with
the offer to reveal the location if he could be
assured Of the freedom OF himself, wife and
son. The master, thinking it was only
ruse on the part of the colored man to get
away to the North, refused to take any stock in
the alleged discovery, and the John Brown
raid, together with the outbreak of the war,
caused the silver legend to be completely
lost sight Of. Cater and his family moved
to Mount Pleasant, Pa, where he died few
years ago. but not before he had confded his
secret to his son Henry. Henry made
number of trips 10 the secret mine. and Sc
cured considerable quantity OF the metal
A short time ago he visited this place and
entered into negotiations with local capital
lists They were SO impressed with his story
that they consented to purchase q large
tract of wild land in the mountains q few
miles south of the town. As soon as that
was accomplished they entered into an
agreement with Galter to give him one
fourth of the net proceeds of the mine.
This Cater assented to, and the old slaves
son is now here overseeing the preparation
of the papers. The company formed has
ample backing, and active operations will
be begun as soon as the agreements are COM
pleted and signed. Cater has with him o
silver brick and number of specimens Of
ore taken from the mine, and the rock is
rated at an exceptional richness.

Canada Preparing an Extradition Treaty
With the United States.

Win the U1tte0 State9s
ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE p1sPArcH.t
OTTAWA, February 25.-There is to be
introduced in the Dominion Parliament to-
morrow by a member on the Government
side of the House bill to extend the provis-
ions Of the eextradition actor the surrendering
of criminals that came to Canada from for
eign countries. Sir John Thompson, Min
lister of Justice, it is understood, will sane
ton the bill, and, as it will provide for the
extradition of all criminals now in Canada,
it will doubtless strike terror to the hearts
of American boodlers and others now in the
Dominion.
The object of the bill is to authorize the
surrender by the Canadian Government of
fugitive criminals, except political Offend
ers, who have sought an asylum in Canada,
and who are charged with the commission
of any one of list of crimes given
in the schedule of the bill, which
covers all the American crimi-
malls now in the Dominion, from a
country with which Great Britain has no
extradition treaty affecting Canada. The
bill also provides for the cases of tugi-
tives from countries with which Great
Britain has no extradition treaty affecting
Canada. The bill also provides that in the
case of fugitives from countries with which
Great Britain has an extradition treaty they
may be surrendered for crimes named in the
schedule, and not named in the treaty.

The change in the ru les will not affect his bat

Moreover he is confident that Staley will make
a fine record this year. He has developed
greatly in his winter practice, and is now mas
ter of the knack of watching the bases and
throwing to first. This was his one weakness
last year, and was owing chiefly to his inexperi-
ence. He has been in constant practice at his
home in Springfield since the season closed.
The pair will join Dunlap and Conway at Hot
