A Remarkable Cave in Indiana.

H. II. Sturm, of indianapolis, and
Richard Penckert, of Spencer, have dis
covered cave near Spencer Last
night they explored it. The entrance is
hole 20 feet deep and about 3 feet in
diameter, At the bottom begins mar
row and steep passage, running northeast
about 30 feet, At the end OF this passage
was step off of about feet, and imme-
dlately to the left was . chamber about
! feet in diameter, the walls rising grad
ually in the form of cone, meeting at
point overhead 30 feet from the floor
The walls We're hung with numerous
stone pendants, water at the time drip
ping down. a passageway, 10 inches
wide and 10 feet long, led from this open
ing toward the northwest to another
chamber similar to the first, but about 80
feet high
A passageway then brought the party
into still another room, it being a little
smaller than the first. From this mar
row Isle, 80 feet long and Z feet high, led
northwest TO very small opening or
manhole, through which the reporter
crawled with lamp, and found that the
passage was blocked by a 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 oil two openings, about as large as a
stovepipe. Stamping on the ground
brought out the fact that "A chamber as

Frightened by WAX Figures.

Probably the greatest case Of museum
fright ON record was discovered at the
Grand museum yesterday, The house
was crowded at the time and the curtain
Just about to be drawn for the illusion,
when a hubbub was heard in the corner
where the wax figures of the four mon
who were recently hanged in the Tonhs
are curtained off The attention of the
audience was centered Immediately on
two excited persons, mulatto man
and black woman, who were struggling
tiercely-he tugging, size screaming.
Lecturer Smith soon Quoted them and
then the reason of the excitement was
discovered, 1t appears that the negro
Lewis is placed just where a draft from
the window occasionally shakes the in
animate figure, and as one arm is point
ed upward the shaking has the effect of
giving a very threatening appearance To
the arm. Thus it was that when the
colored visitors looked up at it all their
superstition came back to them and they
cried out in alright, thinking that Lewis
had returned TO life. New York Journal

When one hears of the museum freaks
who swallow jack knives, rusty iron
nails and pieces Of glass without sustain
ing any injury to their digestive organs,
it seems impossible to believe that the
swallowing of a mere seed of grape
could place man at the very threshold
Of DEATH Yet such IS the fate of young
William Walton, of No. S53 Eighth ave
nue..
A few days ago he was taken sick
after eating some grapes. An abscess
arose on his side, which, on investiga-
ton, proved to be the result Of the seed
Of grape having lodged in the vermi-
form appendix. A surgical operation
became necessary, and the young man
now lies in a precarious condition and
little hopes are entertained of his recov-
cry. The case is very rare one and
has attracted much professions! interest

Where Fife and Bride Are.

Duff house, where the duke and Ouch
ess of Fife are now staying, has been
closed for many years, except during its
owners annual autumn visit, which
never exceeded month. The house is
an immense quadrangular edifce, which
was built about a century ago. The style
is Roman Corinthian, the principal rooms
are very large, and there is a fine collec-
ton of pictures. The grounds, which are
very extensive, are undulating and well
wooded, and are bordered by the Dev.

farther up the river, is Mountcofrer. the

disturbance of nature. 1t was confined
to a strip of land running east and west

that limited area the ground shows the
mark of some mighty CONFUSION.
Stumps were forced asunder, rocks were
split and huge roots torn in twain. Fis-

Mr.. Caldwell, of Godmanchester,
Huntington, tells of a rooster that was
persisting in living out in his country
under peculiar circumstances. On the
evening of Oct 81 Mr.. John Leahy chop
ped off the heads of two ROSTERS and left
the bodies lying in the woodshed, On
going out in the morning to pluck them
he found one standing and apparently
alive Although minus the greater por-
ton of the head it is living still, and
when MIR. Caldwell saw the fowl on
Saturday last it was apparently doing
well and promises to become somewhat

We met---she turned an absent gaze
To where, far off. a heron few;

Her hand into my own ! drew
Then, Sweetheart Daisy roster grew
Than her small uamesakes when they close
And why she flushed so fair hue

What time the trailing garden sprays
Were heavy with the summer dew:
When quenched was tho geranium blaze.
And dmmed the gay lobelia blue

The long loose hedge of briar rose,
And why we were 80 glad, we two,

stopping at Colin Park went up one of
the creeks after CLAIMS. They were rather
late, and the tide was rising rapidly when
they reached the clam banks Not to be
ontdone, they hunted the desired CLANS
by feeling for them with their Feet. until
the tide rose SO high that they were in
water up TO their necks. When a clam
was sounded dive followed, and the
clam was landed in the boat. Sixty-two
clans were the result, and the chowdar

Pacific passenger train from New Orleans
this morning contained one Car of curl

coach, attached to the rear sleeper, were
thirty ChinaIpen, en- route to China.
They came from Havana, Cuba, where
they were employed in a cigar factory.

their landing until it was explained that
they merely desired to go across the ter
ritory of the United States to San Fran

10 the tlowery kingdom. The Southern
Pacific company was compelled to give
the government officials a bond of $3.50
for each of the Mongolian passengers be-
fore they were permitted to board the
train. The bond was security that none
of the Cinnamon should escape from the

to the German army for other reasons
than simply the defense of the father

He writes Il take the German army as
the highest existing type of the military
system and organization, which the
changes effected in armies by the French
revolution have led up to, and much as
| admire that army as a soldier ! admire
it still more as a citizen Great as il is
for war, it is infinitely greater as a ma
tional school for the moral, mental and
physical training of the people. Design
ed exclusively for war it has become
the most important of peace institutions
In it all Germans are trained to strength
and taught the first principles of personal
cleanliness and of health There they
learn to be honest and manly, and are
taught the excellence of those virtues
which serve to make men good subjects
and law abiding citizens, 1t is the school
of the nation, in which deep love of
fatherland is fostered and cherished and
