A Wonderful Cavern.

Sam Tyack, the enterprising lessee
of the Syndicate. broke into a natural
cave in the mine few days ago. about
200 feet from the surface, and dis
covered many things of interest to the
student of archaeology. The miners
were putting in hole, when the drill
suddenly disappeared, much to their
establishment. A couple of holes of
less depth were then drilled and fired,
which made an aperture though which
the men entered chamber about forty
feet square and quite as high, the
sides and roof of which were chalce-
dony bulged out in all sorts of grotes-
que shapes. Sammy entered first, and,
swinging his candle around, caught
sight of a score of objects that startled
him. Come in boysr' he exclaimed.
Here's a bloody anatomical museum"
They crawled in and participated in
Sans establishment, for which there
was ample cause, as the interior of the
cave flashed with the iridescence of .
million of colored gems. 1t seemed

hues. Exploring farther. they found
more cause for wonder. Petrifactions Of
animals, birds and reptiles abounded.
There were great owls and monstrous
bats, and several snakes as hideous as
if endowed with life, as they were
many ages ago, before Bodle Bluff was
created. and when the present site of
Mono's metropolis was closely dotted
with vents of thermal springs, from the
accretions of which millions of dollars
in bullion have been given TO the COM
mercial world. Mr.. Tyack has re-
moved several of these petrihcations in
perfect form, intending to forward
them to Professor Irelan. Chief of the
State Mining Bureau, who will highly
appreciate them. The few who have
been permitted to view this interesting
chamber of antiquities were almost be-
numbed with establishment. Hank
Blanchard remarked that itrecalled the

but places its value about % per cent
over what he will take for it and which
is in turn about % per cent over what
he paid for it. Bargaining which goes
on in all the provincial cities and towns
is extraordinary. The process is called
"Jewing down. and proceeds some

True Courtesy.

1t is possible to learn salutary lessons
from all kinds of people in all sorts of
places. Anna Dickinson was, some
years ago, invited to a Chinese recep-
ton over the shop of Chi Lung in San
Francisco, and owned that, as a school
for good manners, she should not OBJ
ject to such an experience oftener.

entrance farthest from the door is the
post of honor. To this | was conducted,

huge box, divided into compartments,
crowded with nuts and sweetmeats

table, and watched the progress of the

sugared drop. The box moved on to
one, and another, and another, and
each one helped himself to a solitary
sweet, while gazed with horror at my
own pile.
