A BREATHING CAvE.-In the range
of.mountains in Western North Carolina
known as the Fox Range" a most
singular phenomenon exists. 1t is a
" breathing cave" In the summer
months current of air comes from it
so strong that person can't walk
against it, while in the winter the sue
tion is just as great. The cool air from
the mountains in summer is felt for
miles in direct line from the cave. At
times most unpleasant odor is emitted
upon the current from dead carcasses of
animals sucked in and killed by the
violence. The loss of cattle and stock
in that section in winter is accounted
for ia this way. They range too near
the mouth Of the cave and the current
carries them in. At times, when the
change from inhalation begins, the air
is filled with various hairs of animals i;
not frequently bones and whole carcass
es are founa miles from the place. The
air has been known to change materially
in temperature during sxhalation from
quite cool to unpleasantly hot, withsr-
ing vegetation within reach, and accom-
panied by terrible roaring, gurgling
sound, pot boiling 1t is unaccount-
ed fer by scientific men who have ex-
amined. though no exploration can take
place. 1t is feared by many that vol
canic eruption may break forth there
some time. Such things have occurred
in places as little unexpected.

Judge Morrelles. of Texas. in giving
his opinion on the civil rights law,
holds that it does not affect social rights
and immunities that it is only necessary
for those affeeted BY the law to furnish
proper facilities for accommodation, &c, !,
to persons applying; their right to
furnish special accommodations for
others is not affected. Judge Brooks,
Of the United States district Court at
Wilmington, N. G., in charging the
grand jury few days ago. said that
the civil rights bill in its criminal
aspect. which was the only shape in
which it could csms before the grand
jury, was unconstitutional and void.

In the Supreme Court Of the United

Of Maryland against the Baltimore and
Ohio Railroad Company was decided
in favor Of the State. The latter claim
ed a deferred payment of 800. 900 as
due for the period between 1860 and
1870, being one-sixth Of the passenger
fares taken on the Washington and
Baltimore branch of the road. The
company refused payment on the plea
that the tax was unconstitutional. The
Supreme Court held that the passenger
tax was different from tax on inter-
State communication. which a State
could not impose. The State had a
right to impose conditions in the grant

it fmattered not what became of the

THE PRESBYTERIAN ELDERsH1p QuEs-
rIoN.--The Presbyterian Weekly,
which publishes a record Of the vote on
the eldership overture. has returns from
~ presbytsries in favor of the proposed
rotation in eldership to 20 against a
change. The Weekly says:
"It requires SO presbyteries for a
majority. and the probabilities are that
this number have voted in favor of it.
An examination Of the minutes will
show that Of the 495. .634 communicates
of the church, the 80 presbyteries vot-
ing in the negative, represent 1913, 300
members. The 72 presbyteriss voting
in the affirmative, represent 900. .451
members. We have assurances that
the presbyteries Gin the main) of the
synods Of Albany, Central New York,
Geneva and Western New York, re-
presenting 66,028 communicants, do
not approve of it for themselves, but
voted for the change because the frontier
regions and large cities desire it. This
reduces the constituency of the affirma-
tive presbyteries to 1853, 1923. Then
take from this 80 per cent. or 40. 146,
a. representing the decided and in many
cases, protesting minorities in the affirm
alive presbyteries, and the commuui-
cants represented by the affirmative
presbyteries, are reduced to 107, SIT.
This makes the communicates repre-
sestsd by those who practically or are
eonscientiously opposed to the change,

What is shown above is probably true
Of the presbyteries alluded to, may be
assumed to be true Of those yet to be

BEAUTIFUL TWIN BRIDES IN THE
West We had the pleasure to see the
newly made twin brides at the Gibson
Heuse last night, and must confess that
more perfect exempli6cation Of the
French story Of Girode- -Girofa could
hardly exist. They were at supper
with their husbands last night when we
saw them and nice little tea party the
four made. The bride. grooms are
brothers, but not twins. 1t is not often
in lifetime that one is permitted to see
two brothers marry two twin sisters.
The husbands are easily distinguished
the one from the other. The elder one
wears full whiskers while the younger
has simply a moustache The trouble
to be apprehended is in the sameness Of
the wives. and very pretty sameness
it is. To use homely but trite phrase,
they are as like as two peas. To des-
cribe both: They are Of medium size,
perfect brunettes. dress exactly alike,
and seem to be about twenty years old.
Beauty has richly endowed these fair
brides aud placed its dimpled seal ia
the che eks Of each. How in the order
Of human passion it came to pass that
either Of the husbands could fall in love
with his wife without falling in love at
the same time with her sister passes our
understanding. It has been suggested
that each Of the Morgan brothers fell
in love with both the Stewart sisters,
and. to settle the matter. put their
sweethearts in bag, shook 'em up, and
drew cuts for the one that came out first.
We suppose they know. but we don't
see how either Of them knows to which
one of the twins be is married. They
came into supper, and by judicious as
sortment were seated each at the right
hand Of her husband. When they went
out Of tho dining room ore couple was
allowed to get some distance in advance
before the other started. to prevent con-
fusion. on.-Csncinnati Enquirer.
