The Cave DwsIIers.
Gunnllon ReYleN.PresI.


Colonel James Stephenson, OF the
bureau Of ~ethnoloey, has returned
from New Mexico, where be has been
making some further explorations Of
the ancient cliff towns. he has made
an important discovery which is be.
lieved to definitely FIX the cave dwell.
rs at a much later period than has
been supposed by psychologists. 1t
has been thought heretofore thatthese
cave jewellers lived far back in the
distant past. measured by a hundred
ages. Colonel St~ephenson's discov-
cries indicate that not more than three
centuries ago they were living in
these habitations carved out Of the
lace of the cliffs. and that the race
is of comparatively recent time.
The conclusion is arrived at
by the finding Of a lot of
mummies, well preserved, found ia
position in a cyst, encased in a fabric
woven from a material resembling
cotton. Upon close examination,
however, it is found that the cloth,
instead of cotton, is made from the
fibre of a reed similar to fax. Speci.
mems Of the reed, with its roots and
stalk still preserved, were found in
the remains Of a house, which opens
the way to a definite ascertainment Of
the material used An ancient Span.
ish writer, who visited this country
not over three centuries ago, gives an
account Of these people, with a de
:cription o. the cloth Of which they
made their garments and other par.
ticulais about the customs of the ma.
lives, which are substantiated by Col.
Stephenson s recent find. The mum.
mics are also closed in a kind of neatly
made sandal, which affords another
point Of Identification. Besides the
mummies Colonel Stephenson brought
$1,000 pounds Of pottery.

FREDDIE'S FgACAs.
The Cause Of His Recent San.
culinary Demonstration ia
81. Louis.

The following is an extract from
the article written by A. B. Cummings
ham, a reporter for the St. Louis
Democrat, and which caused Geb-
hardt to exhibit his pugilistic prOpen-
sites.
A few minutes later the reporter
sen his card TO Freddie, and was
promptly invited to call at Mrs.
Langtry's room. He was received by
Breddie's servant, who made a low
and r%everential salaam such as pie
belans are accustomed to make to re-
porters and other good men. The
scribe was astonlshed to find himself
ushered into the presence Of the Lily
herself, who with her sister-in-law,
Miss Langtry, and Freddie, we're
seated at q table vigorously discussing
a dish of roast quails. With that
characteristic politeness for which he
is indebted to an early and genteel
culture, Freddie deigned to look at
the reporter, but did not speak. He
merely swallowed the left wing Of a
quail and wiped off his chin. The
reporter pulled down his vest. The
awful silence was finally broken by
Freddie, who, with tho air Of one who
hes been rudely interrupted at a BAN
quet asked:
We'll, sir, what do you want?"
The reporter replied that he was on
the trail OF an interview, but intimaled
that it might be agreeable to Freddie
il he would submit to be Intercepted
alone. The gallant lover responded
that he'd as lief express himself in the
presence OF a whole circus company as
not.
"Then,' queried the reporter, will
you state what your object is in fol-
lowing Mrs. Langtry around the
country
This was a bombshell thrown into
the warlike camp. Mrs. Langtry was
the first to respond to this leading
question, and, woman like, she did not
stop until she gave the reporter "a
piece Of her mind" II think you re-
porters are very saucy," said she, TO
ask about things that don't concern
you, Mr.. Gebhardt is my friend, and
that does not concern the public. He
is not a Congressman ner a theatrical
mamie is simply a young man
travelling for pleasure. It's an impu.
dent pieceof business, this in~tervieWing
is; it wouldn't be allowed in England
that it wouldn't" and the fair Lily's
blue eyes glistened with an i'll sup.
pressed anger as she shot a direful
glance at the reporter.
Freddie, who had picked up his coat
tail and was lingering it nervously, re.
piled with some agitation:
Yes, that's it; I'm travelling for
pleasure. I've got the money to pay fol
1t; and I'm enjoying myself"
DO you intend to make the entire
grand circuit with Mrs. Laugtry?'
inquired the reporter.
This was the signal for another
painful oulbHrst,ahd the Lily dropped
. whole quail OH her lap aud bor kiif,
and fork went rafting on the floor
Poor Freddie, who was between thu
