An Immense Cave Discovered.

II. II. Sturm, of indianapolis, and
Richard Penckert, of Spencer, Ind,
have discovered a cave near Spencer
which they have since explored. The
entrance is hole twenty feet deep anC
about three feet in diameter. At thu
bottom begins a narrow and steep pas
sage, running northeast about thirty-fvC
feet. At the end of this passage was {
step-off of about five feet, and immediate.
" to the left was chamber about eight
feet in diameter, the walls rising gradual
ly in the form of a cone, meeting at a
point overhead thirty feet from the floor.
The walls were hung with numerous
stone pendants, water at the time drip
ping down. A passage way eighteen
inches wide and ten feet long led from
this opening toward the northwest to
another chamber similar to the first, but
about sixty feet high. A passage way
then brought the party into still another
room, it being little smaller than the
first. From this a narrow aisle sixty
feet long and seven feet high led forth
west to very small opening or man.
hole, through which the reporter crawled
with lamp, and found that the passage
was blocked by large quantity of sand
and debris, brought by the rains that
pour at times down the whole cave.
At the end of this last passage there
led off two openings about as large as a
stove-pipe. Stamping on the ground
brought out the fact that chamber was
at some place under this last passage.

A Memorial of Invasion.

bush, a village about two hours journey
from Wittenberg. One day during the
Russian bombardment of the town the
villagers all left their homes to watch the
firing from the heights, and Frau Hunt
chen, with her infant, was left alone in
her cottage. Suddenly there appeared at
the door two brutal Cossacks, who asked
for money. The young mother trem-
blingly told them she had none, where
upon they seized her and her child, bound
them together, and fogged them with
their kuouts until they were both insensi-
BILE.
On the return of the villagers they
were restored to consciousness by medical
aid, but, as a result of the injuries he
had received, Hunichen remained deaf
and dumb until the end of his days. His
death was, indeed, a direct consequence
of the naltreatment he had received sew
enty-six years ago, inesmuch as he was
run over by wagon, the approach of
which he was unable to hear. Hunichen
was very capable painter and was much
patronized bythe German imperial family.

A number of gentlemen were au.
miring the display of beautiful and costly
chemicals made during the session OF
the National Wholesale Druggists Asso,
citation. ''Why does that cost so much? ?"
inquired one of the gazers of Chemist
Hurry, who stood near, pointing as he
spoke to a six-pound jar which bore the
label ''Hom-Atropine Hydrobromate,
cryst., !" valued at S12, 600 for the guam
tity displayed, or $2100 per pound.
~ have paid for a few grains of that, :"
said the chemist, sat the rate Of sixty
cents grain, or $4,000 a pound. Why
does it cost so muchl In the first place
the basis of the cost is in the labor and
skill required to produce it. Beginning
with the plant from which this is OBJ
tanned, belladonna leaves, the labor OF
extracting and presenting this form OF
the active principle, atropine, is almost
interminable. Perhaps from the begin
ming of the process until the product is
in hand one years time has elapsed. II
has gone through q series of processes
that even to attempt to fellow in the
mind would drive one to distraction.
After the product has been obtained it
must be taken into account that there Is
but a very limited demand for it. That
chemical is used in eye practice for dill
ating the pupil, and in that one bottle
there is enough for all the earth and for
the inhabitants of any OF the other plan
cts whose eyes require treatment. 1t Is
the limited use of many of the chemicals
here displayed quite as much as the diff
Guilty of production that puts them upon
price currents at such high figures.
When the demand gets to be great the
price rapidly declines.
''Take, for instance, cocaine (pro-
nounced ko-ka-een), which a few years
ago sold at nearly $500 an ounce and
now sells at S. an ounce. To pharma-
cists belong most of the credit of having
brought it into use. It was the pha1ma-
cists who made it and who employed
men in the hospitals to make clinical cb-
servations upon it. The result of these
investigations were distributed among
pharmacists and druggists all over the
land, and these in turn cid more than all
ether agencies combined to bring physi-
clans to notice and employ the new
remedy. In fact, these dealers fairly put
chains upon the necks of the physicians
and dragged them up tc the remedy. >

Wages in China.

The State Department at Washington
has received a repori from Consul
Pettus, stationed at Ningpo, giving sta
tisties in regard to labor and wages in
China. He says ''Wages have not
increased here for years, and strikes
never occur. Trouble is rarely expert
enced, as labo=ers are confined to dis.
tricts where they are employed. No
laborer is allowed to be employed outside
of his district; he may, by general con
sent, join laborers of another district
not otherwise.
blouse servants are better paid than
any other class of laborers. They are
intelligent and have to be honest and
faithful, otherwise they will fail to pro-
cure letters for good service, without
which they will be thrown out of en-
pIoyment. "

AM EiTel Power Of DInmonds.

A tower Eiffel entirely of diamonds
This sounds like a dream. The reality,
however, IS not quite so dazzling as
might be expected, and the model, which
is an exact reproduction of the original
monument, gains nothing in grace and
beauty of outline to make up for the loss
of grandeur and size. As it is, however,
it is a very curious piece of work. The
number of diamonds needed to construct
this model, which measures thirty-nine
inches in height, is 10000, and they are
set in rows on the silver girders. The
only bits of color about it are in the
lower platforms, both in silver gilt in
two shades of gold, the enameled flags at
the four corners, and the ruby and sapphire
set in the lantern, which is lighted by
electricity and reyolves by clock work.
The price put upon it is 5000, OOO.-

minute quantities of lime, is present. TIC
make a good, wholesome, nourishine
bread, take two bowls of wheat meal and
one bowl of white or bolted flour, and
make by the usual process. Nothing Is
superior to Boston brown bread for bone

have a considerable supply of these lime
salts, and should be en- your tables, hot

The WORTH OF HOURS.
Believe not that your inner eye
Can ever in Just measure try
The worth Of hours as they go by;
For every mans weak self, alasl
Makes him to see them while they pass,
As through dim or tinted glass;
But if in earnest care you would
Mete ont to each its part of good,
Trust rather to your after mood.
Those surely are not fairly spent,
That leave your spirit bowed aud bent,
In sad unrest, and illcontent:
And more--though free from seeming harm,
You rest from toll of mind and arm,
Or SLOW retire from pleasures charm
If then a painful sense comes on
Of something wholly lost and gone,
Fainly enjoyed, or vainly done
0fsomething from your beings chain
Broke of, nor to be linked again
BY all mere memory can retain
Upon your heart this truth may rise
Nothing that altogether dies
Suffices mans just destinies:
So should we live that every hour
May die as dies the natural flower
A self-reviving thing of power;
That every thought and every deed
May hold within itself the seed
OF future good and future need;
Esteeming sorrow, whose employ
is 10 develop, not destroy,
Far better than a barren joy.

THE Corean armor IS made of many
thicknesses of canvas. 1t is for the
most part patterned after their othe-
costumes as to shape, but the outer
garments are made probably two to
two and half inches thick by sewing
one piece of canvas upon another and
incasing the whole in a coarse hemp
cloth. The hat, made in the same
way, is pointed at the top and has
wings to protect the face and ears. 1t
is an extremely hot garment to wear
and would be apt to curtail active ex-
