vendettas in the PhllippInes.

another the matter is settled in simple

one of his family who is likewise Il plebe.
ian. But if II prominent man or noble is
killed by plebeian vengeance on the muir
derer, mere plebeian, is not enough; the
victim of the sin offering must be an
equivalent in rank.
Another nobleman must fall for the muir
dered noble, for their doctrine is, What
kind of an equivalent is it to kill some one
who is no better than dog? Hence the
family of the slain noble looks around to
see ifit cannot find relative of the muir
derer to wreak vengeance upon who is also
a noble, while the murderer himself is ig-
nored. If no noble can be found among
his relatives the family of the murdered
man wait patiently till some one of them is
received into the mobiles caste; then the
vendetta is prosecuted, although many
years may have elapsed.

had not gone more that 100 feet until they
entered a large chamber with vaulted
dome. Every inch of space on the walls
and roof was covered with minute crystals
that sparlSled like millions of diamonds
when the light of the torches flashed upon
them.
The men hurried on, however, trying to
s0vertake their dogs, that they could now
hear family bayng within the bowls of
the earth. After going about two miles
through beautiful rooms and lofty arches
and failing to come upon the hounds, the
weary hunters had to retrace their steps,
owing to their hastily improvised torches
being nearly burned out. The dogs came

A few days after it's discovery Judge
Perry visited the cave and explored it a
short distance. He describes it as one of
the most wonderful caves he ever saw. In
one of the rooms there is y stone wall, 20
yards long, feet high and 1 feet thick. 1t
is built of limestone rock of kind not
found in the cave nor anywhere near it,
The Judge is ut loss to account for the
presence of this wall, especially as it is
cemented together with cement as strong
as the rock itself.
Many people who have seen the cave and
the artificial wall are inclined 60 think
this is the famous Swift cave, where that
worthy mined and coined silver hundred
years ago. If this should prove correct
the judge will be millionaire, as Swift's
cave was known to be one of the richest
silver mines ever opened.-Cor. Louisville

Here are the best opinions of leading
scientists as to why most fruits undergo
changes during the ripening process: 1t is
known that MS fruits come to maturity
there is a process of absorption of material
from the trees sap, as well as "A cell growth
within the fruit itself That the absorp-
ton of oxygen and the giving off of car
bonic acid gas is an action strictly analo-
gous to the respiration of animals. That
there is IA transformation of vegetable fiber
into sugar and water. The rapidity and
perfection of this process depends princi
pally upon the amount of sunshine to
which the fruit is exposed while it is going
on. The outer membranes of most all
fruits assume positive color when the
ripenng change is coming on, but why one
plum is green and another blue, one apple
red and another yellow, the most rigid re
search has failed to discover, but that the
primary changes in the color of each par
ticular species of fruit is due to the reasons
given above there is not the least doubt.
When fruit has turised all its har- to
sugar and water the absorption of oxygen
must be checked by cutting off light and
air; or, if allowed to continue, the next
chemical change involves the decompOsi
ton of the sugar, and the fruit becomes
''rottcn." The action of frost upon fruit
is to crystalline all of its contained mois-
ture. If this can again be converted into
sugar by a very gradual process the sugar
of the fruit is found to he uninj ured. st

When once the human will has been set
going, like rocket or clock or steam
engine, andin the right direction, what
can it not achieved
We should in time control circumstances
instead of being controlled thereby; edu-
cation would day by day become more
adapted to one consistent end; and, finally,
conscience stricken, we should guide he
redity with our own hands instead of leav-
ing it to blind chance; unless, indeed, a
well instructed paternal government wise
ly took the reins, and only sanctioned the
union of people who were thoroughly in
love with each other, after due and careful
elimination of the unfit.
Thus, cruelty should at least be put into
harness, and none of its valuable energy
wasted on wanton experiment, as it is by
nature.
And thus, as the boy is father to the man,
should the human race one day be father

Judge J. w. Perry, the we'll known

lowing story of wonderful cave that has
been found on his land in Morgan county.
1t has only been explored n short distance,
but to Judge from the indications it must
be miles in extent. The cave was found in
a manner worth relating. A party of fox
hunters were pursuing quarry which
their hounds had sprung when they sud
denly came upon high ledge. AT the mo-
ment of ARRIVING at this point the baying
of the hounds was distinctly audible, the
hunters not far behind. Suddenly the mu-
sic Of the dogs ceased.
IL did not die away by degrees, but
stopped suddenly, RS if each loud mouthed
animal had been struck by some invisible
force and forever quieted. The hunters
were mt "A loss to account for this phenome-
non. While wondering what became of
the dogs a belated hound that had been
unable to keep up with the pack came up,
and, running below the ledge, set up a
howl of disappointment, and the hunters
climbed down to where the dog had
stopped, only TO see him disappear into the
side of the mountain through a large, ir-
regular opening.

hunters hastily followed the dog NThey

Wednesday two Brazilian tourists
assembled the mountain, and had just

smoke which rushed out upon them
from the volcanic depths. When the
outburst had subsidized it was found that
one of the gentlemen had become
asphyxiated and had fallen into the
crater.
His companion was only saved by the

accompanied them. As the sulphurous
smoke pulled out from the crater's
mouth he rushed forward and dragged
one of his patrons ont of danger, but
was unable to save the other.
