FoUNDA WONDERFUL CAVE.
The Remarkable Discovery of Miners in the
Asphen Mountain, IN Colorado.

The Remarkable Discovery of Miners in the
Asphen Mountain, In Colorado.
DENVER, Aug. ia most remarkable story
reached here yesterday from Aspen, Col, re-
garding an unexpected find in one of the prin-
cipal mines on the Aspen mountain. Last
Thursday night, as the story goes, the night
shift. in the Minnie mine-MeSsrs. Donnelly,
Mackey, Taylor and Gilfllan-put in two so
inch holes in the breast of the 500 foot level
and fired the blast just before leaving for the
surface. On returning to the mine it was found
that the two shots had broken into cave, the
extent of which they proceeded to explore.
Going in few feet they found the walls covered
with crystallized lime and lead that glittered
like diamonds. Here and there little stalac-
tites hung along from the ceiling.
The lime formation resembled lace and frieze
work OF wOndrOus beauty. The cave has q
descent of about twenty degrees and contains
rooms and chambers grand beyond description
They had entered about two hundred feet
when they found a flint ak. A little further
pool of fresh water and a strong current
of fresh air was felt. Further a chamber
was discovered covered with brOWnish muck
suddenly stopped and said: There sits boy"
Sure enough there sat human form. The
head was resting on the knees and the arms
were drawn around the legs Indian fashion A
stone bow and ax were found beside the figure.
The body was we'll preserved but in trying to
lift it one arm fell Off Other bodies in different
attitudes were found in the chamber but when
disturbed they crumbled. One stone man was
brought out with the loss of arms and feet.

THEIR HONOR SATISFIED.
THAT DUEL PROVES A DECIDED FARCE
After Going Through the FOrmalities with
COmIcaI solemnity the Duelists shoot
With Weapons They Don't Under
stand and Hurt Nobody.

ATLANTA, Aug. ia special to the Con-
aitution from the Williamson-Ca dueling
field says:
'oN THE FIELD. Aug. 1O.-Daylight has
gone and darkness is here. The train comes TO
halt so near the state line that some of the
party think they are in Georgia. Capt Jack
son and Mr. King have left the car. The train
is standing upon a deep field with high cut
in front of it. in fact the eow-catcher is actually
in the cut Dense heavy timber is on all sides.
Trees big and little, old and young, are to be
seen only. thick, heavy cloud hangs over
everything but morning is RAPIDLY drawing
near, and the tull moon shows occasionally.
There is a deep feeling of awe over all:
possibly, except the two gentlemen who are so
soon to attempt each others life. On the out
side Capt Jackson and Mr. King are wander
ing through the woods searching for a spot.
As they move along arm in arm. they talk
familiarly and pleasantly. 4 place is found
and Capt Jackson takes the choice of positions.
Mr. King takes the choice OF weapons. The
principals leave the coaches with DR.. Cooper,
DIR. Beatty andR few spectators. Capt. Jackson
places Mr.. Calhoun with his back almost
squarely against the heavily clouded moon,
then the distance is stepped of. Mr.. William
son takes his position. DR.. Cooper drops upon
his knees and opens his surgical case, knives,
ETC., while bandages are laid out upon the
ground. DR.. Beatty, near Mr.. Williamson,
does the same. Then Mr.. King produces a
pair of pistols and the crowd gathers around
Messrs. Calhoun and Williamson, who stand
with right side to right side just where they
were placed.
"'Gentlemen,' said DR.. Cooper, must this
beY
Neither gentleman authorized to speak
answered, and DR.. Cooper, realizing that he has
done all he can to prevent the fight, walks tn
his case of instruments. Then Capt Seav comes
forward and asks to adjust il, and is so persist.
ent that he has to be carried away almost bodily.
Capt. Jackson is unacquainted with the gun. lt
is a double acting Smith & Wesson forty-twO
caliber, hammerless and with safety attach
ment. The captain soon learns the weapon
and hands it to Mr.. Calhoun, at the same time
explaining it. Mr.. King does the same for Mr..
Williamson. Nothing more remains to be done.
Capt. Jackson takes a position. The word is
given.
"In rapid succession six shots ring out. One
comes from Mr.. Calhoun's pistol and five from
Mr.. WillIamson's. Then the coiloquy occurs,
which ends in an adjustment of the difficulty
on terms honorable to each"

MURDER AT ACTON.
An Old Quarrel About Money Matters Re-
suits in a Tragedy.

suits in a Tragedy.
At Acton, Saturday, two men by the name of
Howerton and Hennegan, got into quarrel
and Howerton struck his opponent on the left
side of the head just behind the ear with a
hatchet, indicting injuries from which the
wounded man died Monday morning.
Hennegan was section boss and was about
fifty years old. He was a married man and
took great interest in the work ofthe catholic
church, of which he was a member, and was
considered good citizen and responsible man.
He was of large, muscular build, but of very
even temper and proverbial for his generosity.
Howerton, on the contrary, is slim built
man, slightly gray, with somewhat stopping
shoulders. He has the name of being q poor
paymaster and it is supposed that it was
through the dead man demanding settlement
that the fatal quarrel arose.
4 year ago the two men were in Frank
lin and Howerton was arrested. Hennegan
would not leave hls comrade in such fix and
so had the fine staid on his own account. How
erton never paid it and Hennegan forced
to pay II for him. Last fall Hennegan asked
him for the money, but he would notpa it, and
they got into a squabble and Howerton bit the
dead mans little finger nearly of.
When seen in jail by a SENTINEL reporter
and asked how the trouble originated, Hover
ton said he did not know, but on being
pressed he admitted that he had bit Henne-
gan's finger last fall but denied that it had any,
thing to do with the murder.
The general belief is that both men were
drinking little; that Hennegsn asked for his
money; that Howerton refused to pay It, and
that they finally engaged in fight with this re-
suit AS Il s.sg it originated can not with any
certainty be told, as no third party was present
when it started.
After the killing, Howerton swore he would
die before he would suffer arrest, and the con-
stable was rather backward about going after
him. Two young men who live near said if
authority was given them they would arrest
him. Howerton heard of this, and gave him-
from Justice Porter's court on charge of man
alauphter

WIN Have 70 Wait Awhile.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 12.-Numerous tele-
grams have been received in this city asking
for information in regard to the Sioux Indian
lands. and many persons appear to have the
impression that the presidents proclamation is
all that is now needed to make the lands part
of the public domain, and as such open TO set
tlement. This impression is not founded on
the law, and is erroneous One of the acts OF
congress requires that congress shall ratify any
agreement shall become of effect, and it will
therefore be necessary for the report of the
commission to be sent to congress, and favor
able action taken thereon before the president
can declare the lands open to settlement. II
will be good while before the settlers can &c
upon the lands.

BISMARCK, N. Oak, Aug. 12.-The commit

its work and a complete constitution will be
submitted to the convention tomorrow. Ii is
hardly safe to give synopsis of the constitu-
ton at present. as many amendments are rec
ommended by the committee and in all proba-
bility will be adopted. Among these is the rec
ommendatIon to strike out the section which
provides that no corporation can blacklist to
prevent laborers from securing employment
A number of delegates returned to-day. Those
who returned from jamestown and Grand
Forks. the points where indignation meetings
have been held because of the location of the
public institutions, give amusing accounts of
the proceedings. 1t is expected that large COM
mittees from these places will arrive tomorrow
to attempt to change the vote when it comes to
the final adoption of the constitution and some
lively scenes may be witnessed.
