A ''GameV" Bishop

A few years ago the Episcopal diocese
of Kentucky appeared to be torn up
with discussions about High and Low
Church views. The bishop unfortu-
nateiy allowed his sympathes to be
drawn out TO one of these parties as
against the other, and thereafter, becom-
ing dishearlened and discouraged, re-
signed the bishopric
The present bishop. when called to
the diocese, was determined to ignore
these dssensions, and if possible to
harmonic his people. and bring them
into the broad. liberal views of the
Church.
For some time neither of these par
ties was able to discover whether his
sympathes were with ono or the other
party. until, an occasion presenting it.

Probable Fate Of the Great
Eastern.

Messrs. Henry Bath Il Sons, of Liver
apparently think that p. L. Barnum
doesn't move quickly enough in his
contemplated purchase of the famous
steamship. A few weeks ago Barnum
announced that he had made the VEN
ders an offer such as they were not
likely to refuse. What the owners OF
the ship consider the best offer how
ever, is one from syndicate of Italian
capitalists, who think they can use the
Great Eastern with profit in carrying
grain and other freight between the
ports of The Med terranean.
The price originally named to Mr..
Barnum, $3.50 600. is now considered
by the owners to be an inadequate one,
as the expenses of keeping the ship
atloat are very heavy and constantly
increasing. The firm of Bath & Sons
are div dcd into two parties. one wish
ing to sell out at Il fair profit, and the
other believing that more money will
be realized by breaking up the big
steamer. Their estimate of its value
for this purpose is $500 600 gross, and
S275, 900 after paying all the expenses
of breaking up. They have also re-
ceived over dozen offers for the hull
after the ship has been 'gutted." aud,
so far as present indications go. this is
likely to be the fate of the biggest
steamship ever constructed.-Ne0 York

1t is not only jobbcry in municipal
and State architecture which makes
our public buildings inferior rs class
to those built by private enterprise. It.
is not only because the architect Of the
United States Government is changed
from time to time that the works for
which that Government is responsible
are so often discrcditable. Tic whole
system by means of which the gov
eminent manages such matter is bad
one-bad not merely in the sense that
it is not always well administered. but
in the sense that il cannot be so adj
min stored as to result in an average
of works which would rightly represent
the standing of American architecture
to-day. Until the system is radically
changed-untrl the architectural BUSH
ness of the United States Government

cAuGHTiN A BIG TRAP.
Where n Largo Collection OF Game

\ Where n Largo Collection OF Game
Was Found by n Wyoming Hunter.
Mr.. Alsop and one Of his men, John
Jackson. were looking around the
/ rocks one morning after their sheep,
! when the latter saw a crcvice leading
into basin in the solid rock, which
was about forty feet In diameter ut the
top, and was shaped exactly like tho
upper half Of an hour-glass. He
thought he would 20 down into this
basin and see what it was like, when
he observed another inlet close by
which seemed to offer easier passage.
Jackson walked around the corner of
the rock. and brought up very sudden
ly when he found himself face to face
with an enormous mountain lion. Mr..
Alsop happened to be close behind
him. and coming up at this juncture.
shot The on. which rolled to tho bot
tom OF the basin and disappeared.
Being anxious to secure the hide of
the lion careful investigation was
made, and it was discovered that the
bottom of the basin was hole about
twenty feet in diameter. opening into a
cavity beneath. into which the beast
had tumbled. A rough ladder was con-
structed and Mr.. Alsop descended into
this curious cavern, where he met q
sight that fairly paralyzed him for a
moment. He found himself in the
lower half of the hour-glasS shaped hole
in the rocks, which carried out the
smile completely. The floor. which
was of solid sandstone, was forty
feet across, and the sides sloped up
ward and inward to the neck. dividing
The lower half from the basin above.
As this neck was but twenty feet wide
it will be seen that person or animal
who fell ut the bottom would be in
rocky room shaped like an ink bottle
right side up. 1t would be impossi bio
for ahuman beng or beast of any de-
scription, once in there, TO escape
without aid. Bv standing or tiptoe it
was just possible for a tall man to
reach the roof with the tips of his fin
gers, and US impossible to climb out
as it would be TO scale the wall of Hal
days Opera House backward without
ladder.
In this cavernous room lay the dead
mountain lion, but he was not alone.
Nine more mountain ons of the larg-
est size, SO recently fallen in that their
hides were still whole. lay about. while
the hole was filled from one side TO the
other with bones of every species Of
animal known on the plains. They
had fallen into the trap formed by ma
ture. and. being unable to get out, had
starved to death. Laramie boomer
