REMARKABLE AMPUTATI0N.
Dig Surgical Operation win
Little Knife.

DR.. Thomas r. Evans, formerly Of Rich
mcnd. but lately of the University OF
Virginia, is rusticating in a romantic
portion of West Virginia. Some days
ago he was called up a creek to see a
man who had lost his right hand and
right foot, the result of a train OF cars
going over them.
The Doctor sent for an amputating
case. and, after a wait OF several hours,
one was brought, but It's knives were too
dull to be used. 1t was necessary to am
putate the leg above the knee and the
arm above the elbow. The man had
been under the influence OF morphine
since ne was hurt (seyen hours. and was
becoming impatient that something be
done.
Everything was i'm readiness except the
knives. The Doctor had small surgical
pocket case, and he performed both am
putations solely with a knife an inch IN
length on an unusually muscular man.
SO far there has not been one unto
ward symptom, and the patient VIII al
most certainly recover. il has been
more than a week since the man was
hurt. Or. Evans was assisted by Or.
Thomas n. Ellis, of Powellton, W. Va.
Mr. williams, a druggist, formerly or
Charlottesville, and a miner.

SYMPATHY WITH 1T.

Mr.. W. c. Hardaway. in whose care
responses are addressed. Is familiar with
the public men Of the State, and he eX-
presses the opinion that thus far repre-
sentative men Of well-known integrity
and conservatism have expressed their
svrnpathy with the movement, and de-
clared their intention of being present at
the conference. and that thus far there
is not the slightest reason to fear that
the conference will be guided by any
thing other than care and prudence
The committee desires the statement
that all who expect to come should send
I'm a notification to the committee AT the
earliest possible moment; that suitable
arrangements may be made for their re-
ception and entertainment.
Reliable information has been received
from Lynchburg TO the efect that sena-
tor Daniel is in sympathy with the move
ment, and will be present at the confer
puCe.

gresemen, prominent lawyers, business
men, and farmers. OF the letters thus far
