BEAUTIFUL AND EXTENSIVE. Its Location is Kept a Mystery-- A Place of Historical and Geological Interest. Kansas C'rrv, Mo., Aug. 10. For the last three months rumors, rather too vague to be traced to a source, of the finding of a big cave in the southern part of this city have been going the rounds. The local papers havn com-mented upon the discovery, which is al-leged to be of a sensational nature, but all efforts to locate the find have been futile until lately. That a ca e ofgreat interest has breu found there is no doubt. That the discovery has been kept secret for some special object in view seems equally certain. The rumor was born when the limits were extended to include many square miles of terri-tory lying betw ecu the city proper and Westport, the old town that antedates the "(late City." Tho added territory, in part, is wild and hilly, and tho geo-logical formation gives ample scope for underground caverns,( while tho thick growth of underbrush affords ample protection for aud securely hides the mouth. The cave was discovered, it is said, by a eouplo of young men while out hunting early iu tho spring. They wounded sonio auimal which escaped into the underbrush, where all trace of it was lost. Tho next day curiosity prompted them to continue the search and it resulted in the finding of the cave. It is unquestionably o) great ex-tent and is of much value. The mouth of the cave is in a hollow about twenty feet in diameter. A slanting path leads down for about twenty live feet and then widens into an enormous chamber with vaulted ceiling and this, in turn, leads off by a winding, tortuous chan-nel into other chambers of great beauty and extent. The air is very pur.-- and dry and the temperature is about 00 degrees. The air Hows constantly from the mouth of the cave. Twenty feet from the entrance it becamo very dark aud the advent of the explorers dis-turbed many bats which scattered upon tho lighting of the torches. The torches wore primitive affairs and gave much more smoke than light, but even with this partial illumination the beauty of the rooms which were passed through was apparent. In the corner of ono roum a lot of bones were found, but whether they belonged to sonio hu-man being or vvere the remains of an auimal could not bo determined. After going in a straight line for about a quarter of a mile (it was not thought advisable to explore any of tho side al-leys) the party was slopped by a small stream of water, not. very wide as the opposite side could bo seen by holding up the torches, but enough to bar further progress. There are many rumors alloat about the cave. It is said that for months past a party has been exploring it thoroughly and has found a great deal that is of historical and geological in-terest. It is also stated that, valuable Buds of a prehistoric nut u re were made, and that this is the reason for keeping the discovery n secret. A thorough ex-ploration of the cavern' is to bo made and negotiations closed for tho proper-ty before the extent of the lind is made public. The region in which the cav-ern is found is very similar to the lime-stone formation of Kentucky in which the famous mammoth cave is located. One of the most interesting stories of the cave is the finding of a great arched room in which musical vibrations of all sounds are heard. The visit this week did not give time for an extended re-search, and this room was not seen. An old gentleman who has lived al Westport for many years, is t In: author-ity for the .statement that many years ago the Indians were in the habit of using this cave for a hiding place. He says he distinctly remembers the stories oft ho pioneers, 'in which tho Indians escaped often by what was considered a mysterious disappearance. He also tells' of the death oi ono of the most ex-perienced frontiersmen, ami says that it happened at this place, The hunter, with a companion, had wounded a bear, and w ere following the animal up, when they were lired upon by Indians from ambush. The old hunter was shot. How badly was never known. His companion escaped and organized a party for rescue, but no trace ol the wounded man was ever found. Ho is convinced now that the hnni'-- r was taken into the cave and disposed of. DIFFICULT SURCERY. A Man's Hocly (p-ne- unit a Mullet !( moved. Sr. Lot is.

Brooks pulled out a revolver And shot King in the left side. Brook was arrested by Officer Freeman and is now in jail awaiting the result of King's wound. King was taken to the city hospital, where the physician probed for the ball, but failed to locale it, as it took a peculiar course. As death was certain if the bullet was not located, the physicians began their dif-ficult operation! They opened the ab-domen sutlieieut to allow a hand to en-ter, and then proceeded to explore the cavity. They found that the buliet, which entered on the left side, immediately about ;!i crest' of the hip." had gone for-ward and took hu inward course. The ball was found in the ravity, and upon examination it was discovered that the intestines w ere pierced in eight places The intestines were taken out. the holes closed by the physicians, tho intestines replaced and tiie opening sewed up.
