AM Ensicn,s Debnt.

This seasons crop of Annapolis gradu-
ates has been neatly distributed about the
navy, and several of the luckiest young
sters have settled in the Brooklyn navy
yard.
One of them was assigned to the Phila,
delphia, and one fine morning be was put
on duty asofficer of the deck for one Of the
morning watches 1t was his hfst. ssaetive
duty" and his chest expanded asfiia Inch
us be buekled on his sword and ina rched
to the quarter deck. This was at 10 O'Clock
and his watch was till noon In tflSs trick
there is but one order to be given. That
comes at seven bells (half-past II o'clock):
and to this effect; "Bosun's mate Pipe
sweepers.''
The youngster had .sboned'; up on his
duties carefully, and struck a superb atti-.
tude on the bridge as the seven strokes be-
gan, clearing his throat to give the regula-
ton nautical ring to his order. And to
make him especially careful, he knew, al
though he could not see them, that half
the ships company were hidden away some
where intently watching his debut
So as the seventh bell rang out on the
sultry air he sang out, in a voice to be heard
half way across the basin. ''Bo-o-o-sun's
mater'
AYE, aye, sirr' responded that Junction
ary, stumbling aft with his whistle in his
fingers.
.'Swipe peepers.''
The boatswain's mate endeavored to
pucker for whistle, but his lips divided
in a grin that made blowing impossible,
While shout Of laughter came from ali
along The deck.
No. no. stammered the unfortunste
ensign. 81 mean Peep swipers' :"
The boatswain's mate nearly fell into a
lit at this, and the screams of laughter
from the onlookers well nigh started the
cruiser from her moorings. The youngster
lost his head completely at this 9econd dis
aster, and it took seven men t. keep him
from jumping into the East river
The whistle was finally sounded and the
sweeping trick was done, but the youth
had his meals brought to him in his berth
all that day, and spent his months pay

ern That May Prove Valuable.
Judge j. w. Perry, the well known
Owen county politician, tells me the FOL.
owing story of a wonderful cave that has
|Deen found on his land in Morgan county
It has only been explored short distance,
but to judge from the indications it must
pc miles in extent. The cave was found in
manner worth relating. A party of fox
hunters were pursuing quarry which
leir hounds had sprung when they sud-
knly came upon high ledge. At the mo
knt of arriving at this point the baying
5f the hounds was distinctly audible the
hunters not far behind. Suddenly the mu-
sic os the dogs ceased.
1t did not die away by degrees, but
stoppedEsuddenly, as if each loud mouthed
animal had. been struck by some invisible
force and forever quieted., The hunters
were at 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. s
Procuring torches of pine knots, the
hunters hastily followed the dog They
had not gone more than 100 feet until they
entered large chamber with vaulted
dome. Every inch of space on the walls
and roof was covered with minute crystals
that sparkled like millions of diamonds
when the light of the torches flashed npon
them.
The men hurried on, however, trying to
overtake their dogs, that they could now
hear family baying 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
home the next day.
| 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 stone wall, 20
yards long, feet high and feet thick. It
| is built of limestone rock of a kind not
| found in the cave nor anywhere near it.
The judge is at 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 lave seen the cave and
the artificial wall are inclined to think
this is the famous Swift cave, where that
worthy mined and coined silver a 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

The .san.l Aurer.. Ph.nou....

One of the most curious wind spbenome-
mons is the "sand augers'' which are oh
served on wide plains where the atmos-
phere is hot ands dry. When the Union
Pacific railway was being constructed the
workmen had frequent opportunities of
witnessing the formation and progress of
these sand auger' whirlwirds. They
were especially frequent in the Lodge Pole
Creek valley, through which the railway
leaving the Platte river, runs in a norther.

The first indications of the near approach
of one of these 'saugers" would be the for.

from which, as if to meet the monster of

This earth column would rise higher and
higher, with a swift, whirling motion, be-
coming more compact all7the while, until
the blue black vapor from above and the
brown mass from below would unite and
form the typical "sand auger;o of the plains. !"
The diameter of these augers seldom ex-
ceeded fifteen or twenty feet at the ground,
but their bulk increased with their height,
until they were merged into the broad sur
face of the thick murky vapor of the cloud
above. When this occurred. lightning
flashes would sport about the upper stra-

be formedin the dark point beneath. When
all conditions were favorable these hail

Human Progress.

When once the human will has been set
going, like rocket or clock or steam
engine, and in the right direction, what
can it not achieve?
We should in time control circumstances
instead of being controlled thereby; edu-
cation would day by day become more
adapted to one cons stent eud; and, finally.
conscience stricken, we should guide he
redity with our own hands instead of leav-
ing it to blind chance; unless, indeed. a

union of people who were thoroughly in
love with each other, after due and careful

nature.
