| Cul there is a cave literally swarmiug with
| spiders of curious species of an immense
| size, some of them having legs four inches i'm
| length and body as large rs that of canary

was discovered in December, 1879, and was
| often resorted to by the pioneers, who OBJ

desert horses of Australia was q huge, un-
| gainly beast without a hair upon it, 1t was
cut out of a wild herd and roped in by sta -

| The latter tanned the hairless horse, taught
| it n few commonplace triCk5 and showed l +

| smooth and shiny, and dark mottled brown
| in color, and the poor thing seemed very in-
| telllgent and doCile.
