STRUCK IT RICH.
WEST VIRGINIANS WHO HAVE A GOOD
THING IN CANADA.
A Gold Mine Which Promises 10 Yield Millions
TO It's Stockholders - A Description by
Col. Ned. Stalhaksr.

Col. n. E. Stalnaker is back from a
long and interesting trip to Canada,
where he went with large party of
representative gentlemen, some Of them
from West Virginia, to look at the Ophir
gold mine OF the American Development
Company, West Virginia corporation
which, under the Presidency OF A. c.
Humphrey, Of Kanswha county, has
struck a very good thing Of it in min
ing way. In narrating his experiences
on Canadian soil, Mr.. Stalnaker said:
"The mine is about sixty miles from
the Canadian Sault, and the last
twenty miles Of the journey, after leav-
ing the railroad, was made in six large
sleighs, there being twenty-five In the
party. The snow off the road was three
feet deep, at least, and it was one of the
most trying experiences l ever went
through. The possibilities of the region
are being pushed and developed through
the energy Of Messrs. A. c. Humph-
ries, OF Kanawha county, G. A. Atkins,
Of near Middleport, o., and G.. c. Mil
ligan, OF Parkersburg, all being men
well known in West Virginia. Mr..
HUMPHREYS was formerly a merchant on
Elk, but failed and thought the world
was slipping from beneath his feet
when be lost his Kanawha business.
On the contrary, it was the making OF
him. He and Milligan got sight OF
this Canadian country, investigated
its minerals, and the American
Development Company was the
result, with a capital OF three million
dollars. One hundred thousand shares
OF q par value Of SO, have been put on
the market at So per share, and seventy
thousand have been sold. When the
other thirty thousand are sold no more
will be offered at that rate.
"The mine crops out on the face OF a
hill about as high as Chapline hill, and
on top OF the hill is large lake, affording
excellent and cheap water power. The
quartz vein has been uncovered for q
distance Of $50 feet, and shows 40 feet
Of face, and an average depth OF one
hundred and twenty-five feet-at least
a shaft has been pushed that deep, and
the quartz is richer at the bottom than
at the top. Assays run from fifteen dol
lars to two hundred and fifty dollars
per ton. It's estimated there are $780,
600 tons of this quartz In sight, the COM
pany owning 153 acres in fee simple,
and even at ten dollars per ton it
will amount to S9,250OOO Many
mining experts were in our
party, among them being General G.. A.
Greenwood, who told me that among
forty Mexican mines he was interested
in he knew of nothing like what he had
seen there. We personally saw blasts
put in and any quartz fragment picked
up after a shot showed gold, either free
or in the peculiar blush tint charac-
teriStic of auriferous quartz. 1t is a
magnificent property.
among the West Virginians there
were Editor Alb. White,o Parkersburg,
and the Savage Brothers, Hon. RS. Carr,
Mr.. Woodman aud Harvard Donnelly,
all of Charleston. All, as well as the
experts and others in the property,
agreed it is a splendid property and
bound to yield large return to those
who invest in IT,"

"ALL'S NOT GOLD,' E7C.
SOME INCIDENTS IN THE LIFE OF A REV.
ENUE OFFICER.
Frank Bowers Tells Of Few Of the Trials and
Hardships of His Official Career the
Last Few Years.

Frank W. Bowers-the genial, gen.
tlemanly and energetic eX-City Clerk Of
this city, who has been successfully
holding down position in the internal
revenue service FOR the past four years,
is in the city, and is combining official
business and greeting old friends in a
very pleasant manner.
According to Franks statements, all
official life is not the thing 1t is popu-
larly supposed to be. He has had a
taste of it, and stands ready to assure
anv one that as far as his personal eX-
perience has gone, he has had about as
hard a time of it in earning his compen-
sation as the most conscientious could
desire. He thinks breaking stone In
April, working as section hand on a
railroad in a mountainous country, or
eking out life as o morning newspaper
man, are all child's play compared to
seeing that evil-disposed parties do not
defraud the government out OF revenue
taxes.
There is popular tradition here in
Wheeling that Frank has been holding
down a handsomely upholstered office
chair in q sunny New YORK ONCE,
equipped with hot and cold water, mes
sengers, and all modern convenlences,
and the debonaire ex-Clerk was remind
ed of the story yesterday. He smiled a
feeble sort Of smile and said:
al wish some of the people who are
nossessed of that fancy could have been
with me on little North Carolina trip
I took q few months ago. | was up In
the Cracker country for weeks, dressed
as a tramp, cold, hungry, sleeping in
sheds, stalls and pig pens, and In DAN
ger of being shot every day. That trip
wrecked my health. For weeks at
time had nothing TO
eat but corn meal, mixed with
water, without salt, rolled into a
ball and baked before fire, salt meat,
and something theJ called coffee, but
which, | fancy, was made OF parched
corn end oats. The universal beverage
was raw LIQUOR and persimmon beer. l
ate corn meal and drank persimmon beer
until l ruined my digestive apparatus,
and will always feel the effects OF it, |
believe. One time, indeed, believe l
was poisoned, for after eating supper
one night 1 went to bed feeling well,
and nearly died during the night. It's
the toughest country ever saw, the
people are rougher than the country,
and the food is the toughest OF all.
"But I've had pretty tough times
even in New York City. Over on the
river fronts Of both New York and
Brooklyn good deal Of Illicit distilling
is done, and I've had to go around
among the slums dressed as tramp
and loafng and sleeping in all rtsof
places, 1t is the only way to get evil
dence, but the surroundings and
the work is something terrible
to any ordinary man. My ex-
periences would ill a book. have
been at Louisville, Cincinnati and many
other places, nearly always on the
toughest sort Of trips, but have the
satisfaction of knowing l have made a
good record, aud have been steadily ad-
vanced without any political or person
Al influence whatever"
Mr.. Bowers will be in and about
Wheeling for a week, and will then re-
turn to his headquarters.

DISCRACBFUL ATTACKS
MADE UPON TWO MOTORS IN MARTINS FER
RY LAST NIGHT.
They Were Assailsd With Stones, and the Win
dows Of the Car BrOksn-AnOthsr Gar
Stoned on the SOuthsida

With the exception of one incident on
the last trip last evening, Yesterdays
operation of cars on the street railway,
on this side of the river, was devoid OF
excitement or unusual interest. The
motors travelled over the different divi-
sions without molestation from strike
sympathizers during the day.
Six wagons were running between
Twelfth and Forty-third streets,
and carried fair number OF passengers.
No conveyances have yet been placed In
Benwood, where they would probably
be we'll patronized, on account OF the
difficulty in securing horses to pull the
buses over the almost impossible streets
In that town.
The usual number Of officers were on
duty last night during the early even
ing In the lower wards. About $50
o'clock word was received at headquar-
tiers that large crowd had assembled
At the corner of Jacob and Thirty-ninth
streets. Lieutenant Gaus proceeded TO
this point and found only four men,
with an officer on duty. at several
points in the Eighth ward there were
crowds of men and boys, but no violence
was offered.
The last car conveying the employees
left the barn about o'clock. While
passing up South Jacob street some per-
son or persons in an alley threw two
stones through the windows Of the car
They fell inside, but did not inJure any
of the occupants. The motormen could
not see their assallants on account OF the
darkness. This was the same car which
was attacked on Monday night, and
there are few panes Of glass left in the
windows.
The Ohio Valley Trades Assembly
Yesterday printed 10000 circulars, stat
ing the situation from the side Of the
strikers. and appealing to the public to
uphold the men and to withdraw their
patronage from the street car company.
These circulars were distributed yester-
day in this city, Benwood, Martins
Ferry and Bellaire.

Arlurrr in politIcal circles.

Some Of the Republican brothers up
In the First ward are pretty hot at the
action OF the Board OF Commissioners
or rather the Republican end Of it-for
choosing Mr.. Pebler Superintendent OF
the Infrmary. The First ward friends
of Mr.. Barney Burke say Mr.. Kindle-
berger, the Commissioner from Wash
ington district, was pledged TO stand
by him, and that he was not to surreh-
der To the demand OF Mr.. Tyson
that Mr.. Pebler must go in, as
he would vote with the Demo-
Gratis and keep the Board q
tie. Mr.. Kindleberger's friends say he
made no such promises, but the other
side insist they are right, and a good
deal OF harsh and supplementary talk
has been INDUCED in during the past
two days, over the result Of the election.

In Martins Ferry.

A digraceful scene occurred last night
between eight and nine o'clock in Mar
tins Ferry. Two cars were attacked in
the Standard addition, at the southern
limits of the city. The tracks run east
of the mill, and the place where the at.
tack was made is very dark. A special
officer in the service of the company
was on duty at the time, but was at an
other point of his beat.
The motors pass on the back river
steel bridge. The south bound motor
was first attacked. 1t was assailed with
a shower of stones which broke several
panes of glass, but did not injure the
operator or conductor. The north
bound motor came up in few minutes
and met with similar reception. No
effort was made to stop the cars, and no
person was injured.

Sounds of strife and sundrY discord-

Of the city lookup in the basement Of
the City Hall about o'clock yesterday
afternoon, and in a few seconds there
after two dying forms were seen to dart
out OF the outer door and disappear up
the alley in the rear Of the building.
The I. rs were those OF John Thomas
Shefln and Ed Taylor, and they got
such a move on themselves that they
secured their coveted freedom, despite
the efforts Of several policemen to over
haul them.
Tho two young men have been
wanted for several days for stealing
sundry empty oil barrels consigned to
refinery and in the custody OF the B. &

on Seventeenth street, yesterday after
noon, and took them to the City Hall.
The Assistant Lookup Keeper was
absent. and Chief McNichol locked them
up himself in cell No. 1. When
Assistant Wilkie came back one Of the
men made an excuse to be let out Of the
cell, and as soon as the door was opened
both made break, downed Wilkie,
thumped him several for luck. and then
fed. They have probably left town.
