A Rival 10 the Mammoth Cave.

J. A. Allen, of Bloomfield, KY,
while excavating the foundation for
new mill struck the dome OF u cavern
OF immense proportions, from whiCh h
strong current of cold air issued with
great force. Mr.. Allen and Mr. Gain
Hurst, carrying torches, were lowered
into the cavern. 1t was about sixty
feet from the surface to the door of the
cave, which they found to be level and
sandy, as if it had once heen the bed
OF n subterranean stream. They fol-
lowed the main avenue over two
miles and discovered an opening in a
cliff on the farm of Benjamin Wilson,
and q well-bea;en path was easily
discerned that was once trod by hu.
man beings, although it is now in
many places covered with forest trees
and underground. Mr.. Allen and Mr..
Hurst, after emerging FROM the cave
fastened back to the town and report
ed the result Of their discoveries. A
large party was at once formed, which
entered the opening Of the cliff on the
Wilson farm.
On one Of the main avenues numer.
ous evidences existed that the place
had been the abode OF the cave men,
as many relics were found in the shape
Of pottery and bronze articles. A sep
ulchre was also discovered in a large
niche or avenue ut right angles with
the main avenue, and in it are many
mumifed bodies. The formations in
the cave are beautiful. Stately towers
Of stalagmites and beautiful pendants
of translucent stalacttieS suggestive
Of grotesque figures stud the avenue.
There is beautiful little lake with
watt r as clear az a crystal, full of tiny
eyeless fish. The avenues OF the cave
are about seven miles long, go that it
is another rival of the Mammoth Cave.

Three hundred republican campaign
clubs held lively session vt CHECKER
ing Hall, in New York, last week
The Philadelphia Times in speaking
OF the convention says: The Conven-
tion Of Republican Clubs met just
when lhers is profound sentiment
among intelligent men of all parties to
deal NTH the isSnes OF the present in
the most practical snd patriotic man
ner. There are supreme necessities
inseparably interviewer with the gen
cral prosperity OF the country, ard
these necessities must he met by the
present Congress. The Republican
party naturally criticises and antagu-
nizes the party and administration of
President Cleveland, and ntelIi-
gent citizens Of every faith want it in
le'ligrnlly and searchingly criticised ;
but " hat words of intelligent, states
manlike or even patriotic criticism
came from the wrangling sessions OF
the New York Convention?
Who in that body proposed intelli-
gent methods OF relief for any public
want? Who presented a financial
policy OF any kind! Who discussed
the revenue issue on any basis to re-
lieve overtaxed industry and reduee
the Treasury surplus' There was n
confusion OF babbling; jostling of
mean ambition; schoolboy huzzas
over favorite Presidential candidates
Iill-advised attempts to instruct every
department of the government wild
propositions to apply untold millions
to pensions, to ships, to guns, to rivers
and harbors and mud creeks; the
frantic waving OF the tsttered bloody
shirt in short, everything but what n
great party needs in such an excep-
tional crisis as is now upon it.
The New York Convention OF party
clubs was a sad misventure for the Re-
puhlicans just on the threshold Of a
Presidential year and the sincere and
intelligent members OF the party
would do we'll to bury the movement
in its first great blunder. 1t starts
with favor that fUrhids its usefulness
and while it can serve no good pur
pose, it may do incalculable harm
The best thing the party leaders could
do would be to trade the proposed
National League Of Republican Clubs
for worthless yellow dog and then
shoot the dog.
