MAMMOTH CAVES RIVAL.
An Exploring Party Discovers an Cnder
ground Wonderland


ground Wonderland.
SAN Francisco, July 10. The Er-
G1ltner this morning announces the dis
covery of an enormous cavern in
Josephine county, Ore, twelve miles
north Of the California line and forty
miles from the coast. The openings
look like small assures in great lime
stone bluff. The limestone extends for
miles and appears massive and solid out
side, but is honey-cOmbed within with
cracks and crevasSes, which extend for
miles without any apparent order or
system. Many of the passages within
the cave are described as of great
beauty, containing semi-transparent
stalactltes, giant milk-white pillars,
pools and streams OF clear water. A
creek flows from the main opening to
the cave, and it was here that the party
entered.
They spent a week in exploring the
cave, and found innumerable passages
and chambers, and several miles from
the entrance they discovered a small
lake of clear water and a waterfall 30
feet in height. all kinds of grotesque
figures were found In the various cham
bers. Large numbers Of flashllght pho
tographs were taken. The only sight
of any animal life was found short
distance from the entrance, where
few bones indicated that bears had used
it for a lair and carried their prey there.
1t was estimated that the main body
of the cave was 1880 feet from the sur
face of the mountain, and the cavern
itself appeared to be fully as large as
the Mammoth Cave In Kentucky.

A New war story.

This story of how thirty-six brave sol
diers on the one side put to utter rout
and rapid flight 5000 brave soldiers on
the other side is from the lips Of pri-
vate who fought in the ranks through
the stirring scenes Of the sixties and
came ont with an honorable discharge.
In 1862 Hanover Junction, a little town
between the forks Of the North Anna and
South Anna rivers, was held by body of
troops from Longstreet's brigade. There
were about 5000 Of them, and as the
post was vantage point about the same
number of troops wero sent from Nc
Clellan's army to attack the place.
Among the first to cross the North
Anna river was Private Mccarthy, Of a
New York regiment, now a resident of
Kansas City. With him We're thirty
four members Of the same company,
commanded by Capt. Fitzpatrick. The
5000 defenders Of the post were drawn
up in battle file some distance from the
river. Hardly had Kilpatrick's men
reached the bank when he commanded
them to charge, and the little troop Of
/ thirty-six went charging directly in the
face Of 1000 troops drawn up in line Of
battle. The sight Of the little body
charging alone was too much for the
nerves Of the 3.000 raw troops and they
fed. Unused to the artiiices Of war
they thought there must be some trica
in it, and they cut at once for taller
timber.
The little troop Of thirty-six had az
complished without the loss Of a mar
what might probably have taken 5,0Ol
men to do.--Kansas City Times

Popular Songs.

At every music hall from twenty to
thirty songs. or even more, will be sung
in the course Of the evening, and OF al
these perhaps two or three in year viii
catch the popular favor, be played on
barrel organs, whistled by street boys.
ADAPTED for burlesques and pantomimes,
and overrun the entire country IN mar
velously short time, until it pals upon
the very villagers. Some fifteen years
ago. for example, twas impossible to go
anywhere in the United Kingdom with
out hearing a certain Tommy being
vocally adiured to make room for his
uncle. 1t would be curious to resusci-
tate Tommy and his uncle now and see
how much success they would obtain
with the public of today. The tune was
irresistibly catching, but it would prob
ably fall on deaf ears now. No super
animated thing is 50 utterly dead and
forgotten as a once popular music hall
song. compared to which Jonah's gourd
was a hardy annual.
Who compose these ephemeral tunes.
Their names seldom or never appear, any
more than do those Of the gentlemen who
write the songs, though it is safe to con-
clude from internal evidence in either
case that they are not persons Of exalted
musical and literary eminence. And what
are the songs like? Do they show any
graphic or satiricel power, any command
Of the pathos and humor which appeal tc
popular tastes? One would hesitate tC
answer in the negative, since these dittiei
are found acceptable by those whom they
are intended to delight, and yet to heal

Reform in Smoking.

Some New Haven smokers have started
n tobacco moderation society, members
being limited to three cigars day.
They have to deposit daily sum equal
ing what they have been accustomed to
gpeDd on tobacco, minus the value Of
the three cigars. And in case a member
smokes more than three cigars on any
day he forfeits all the money he has de
posted. Those who adhere to the agree
nent for one year win share equally in
the fund created by the forfeitures.
This is very good as far as it goes, but it
