SILVER In WEST VIRGINIA.
Discovery Of an Ancient Mine Supposed to
Contain Valuable Ore.

Contain Valuable Ore.
ESPECIAL TELEeRAM TO THE DIsPArcH.I
RALEIGH G. H., W. VA, October 2l-For
some time past there has been belief in this
county that silver in paying quantities existed
somewhere in the vicinity of the Isaac Dickens
farm. For 100 years there has been a tradition
that the Indians, or a race preceding them IN
this portion Of the country, were familiar with
the existence of the mine, the story current
being to the effect that the route to the mine
was marked by upright stones, each bearing
rude hieroglyphics.
A short time ago railroad surveyors discoy,
cred strange characters cut upon rock, and
Mr.. Dickens was informed OF the fact. he
had aIways been a firm believer in the silver
mine tradition, and he at once instituted
search, which resulted in the discovery OF
other stones, of similar nature, and later the
mine itself. Specimens of the ore have been
taken out and sent East for analysis

GOSSIP OF GREAT GOTHAM.
Life Saved by Tran.fu.iou Of Blood.
rNEw YORK BUREAUssPEc1ALs.J

NEW YORK, October 1-Morris A. Redding
an artist, and his roommate. = pocketbook
maker named Pfeffer, went to bed at their
boarding house, 206 East Thirty-fourth street.
Sunday morning, and turned on the gas full
head. They intended to commit suicide. The
blinds were closed and there was no ventilation
in the room. The door was broken open to-
day. Pfeffer was found dead; Redding was
dying. Pfeffer's body was taken to the morgue;
Redding was removed to Bellevue Hospital.
The doctors thought the only thing that could
possibly save Redding was TRANSMISSION Of
blood. DR.. Cummings entered ward Is, and
when he explained the urgency Of the
case, Henry Won der Leith volunteered
to undergo the operation, 'if moth
die without it." Won der Leith is brawny
German carpenter In New York, but report
says be was q baron in Germany. He is tenn
por arily confined at Bellevue with an injured
foot. Won der Leith was laid upon bed near
the dying man. His right arm was barred and
stout ligatures were bound around it above the
elbow, causing the veins to swell. DR.. Cum
mings then opened the median cephalic vein in
the Germans arm and inserted the TRANSMISSION
apparatus. Then they opened Redding's arm
and the other end of the instrument was forced
into the opening. Blood was then forced from
Won der Leith's body to that of Redding. The
latter began to revive. slowly at first and then
quite rapidly, until, In few minutes, he
opened his eyes and regained consciousness.
By that time II ounces of blood had been trans
fused. The operation lasted but 15 minutes,
and the mans life was saved. The doctors say
Redding's recovery is now assured.

VOLUNTARY EXTRACTION.

The Weldon extradition bill which has
been introduced into the Canadian par
lament and secured the approval Of the
government, thereby making its passage
nearly certain, marks great advance IN
international comfy, although the mo-
tive for its introduction is avowed to be
self-protection. The author Of the bill
declares, and very truly, that the sight
of fugitives from justice living at ease
oe stolen money can not fail to be de-
moralizing to the young men Of Canada.
v iCh the knowledge that Canadian
criminals of like character aIe equally
protected here, how could this be other
wise than a standing temptation to do
wrong?
The treaty now existing between the
United States and England is one of the
earliest we have and quite limited in its
scope. A new one of enlarged range was
defeated at the last session Of congress in
Difference, mainly, to Irish-American
sentiment, for it was held not to
be clear that it could not be used
for patriotic ends. But if this
Weldon bill passes it will entitle
Canada to the credit of great common
sense and wise craftsmanship. 1t does
not even ask reciprocity in the matter;
it simply proposes to do something which
will benefit Canada, leaving to us to do
the same thing voluntarily from the
same motive-self protection.
There is one possible difficulty, how
ever, that may aIise should the bill pass.
1t proposes not only to give up freely all
foreign criminals, except those charged
with political offenses, who shall here
after seek refuge in Canada, but to per-
NIT the extradition of fugitives who
have gone there in the past. The retro
active feature of the bill may be declar-
ed unconstitutional. And yet probably
it would conflict with no law, either in
Canada or the United States, except the
unwritten law Of refuge.
The introduction of this bill has stirred
the colony of American rascals in Can
ada to its greatest depths, and already it
is stated that Emo and others are raising
large bribery fund to defeat it.

NO EXTRA SESSION.

That promise made at st. Louis that
Governor Humphrey would convene the
Kansas legislature to consider the action
of a lot of fellows who are working in
the interest of few trunk line railways
that want to transport all the animals
alive to eastern markets, is not going to
materialize, as predicted by the EAGLE.
The governor says:
81 will not call the legislation together
to consider the beef question or any other
matter now before the public. 1t would
require an emergency such as does not
now exist to induce me TO take such a
STEP If the legislature had cared TO enact
a beef inspection bill it would have done
so during the regular session. The Guthrie
bill which passed the house was all that
the most ardent friend of beef inspection
could ask for, yet it failed to become law:
Moreover, the legislature pronounced
against an extra or even an adjourned
session, knowing when it did so that the

Sheriff Hays, of Sedgwick county. re-
ceived letter from the superintendent OF
the insane asylum at Topeka in regard to
the two maniacs that are now II the counGy
jail awaiting chance at the asylum. Ia
the letter the superintendent tells Sheriff
Hays that it is impossible for room to be
made for the two men. The legislature
made no arrangements for an addition TO
the asylum and as consequence the coun-
ty jail at Wichita must be turned into an
insane asylum. Sheriff Hays is indignant
over the fact and is inclined to be rather
harsh in his judgment of the late leglsia-
ture and its doings.
Heap of pure bosh in the above. In
the first place the legislature did provide
for new insane asylum building IN To-
peka. In the next place the officers Of
the above named asylum are occupying
almost an entire ward in the insane
building which they should be forced to
give up for the benefit of patients.

parlors and reception rooms; too much
extravaganza: too much expense at these
state institutions. There IS room at To-

ner foresaw and knew the need Kansas
would have for the reel and staked his
all on its success. The people did not
know and appreciate its usefuln ess, and
after spending his little means without
remuneration, was compelled to lay
down his life for sericu!ture. II
God recounts the fall of a
sparrow all mankind should reverence
the departed lives of its faithful servants
and crown them heroes. The history Of
Kansas would not be complete without
the remembrance of its heroic dead, and
