MYSTERY IN A CAVERN.

A>OC6 Az SOOCaAO Booty secured DY NO
tortous California Eantlitss
On the north side of Table mountain
and near its top Is an opening in the
lava that has since early days been
known as the ''lion's den" It was so
named from the fact that for years II
. was the lair Of 9 band OF ferocious CAL
fornia lions that, when this country
was largely devoted to sheep raising,
made nightly depredations upon the
GoclSs and caused the owners much On
noyance and loss When pursued the
animals would seek refuge In this den
and no hunter would dare enter It.
The ground about the entrance to II
wns covered with bones and remnants
Of sheep and other animals With tho
increase of population the lions have
gradually disappeared, although as late
as last spring two of the animals were
seen to enter the cave Strange to say,
no known man has ever penetrated 10
its fullest depth. The mouth Is about
four or Ave feet high and three teet
wide, and the opening descends with q
sharp incline for about two hundred
feet Further than this it has never
been explored
Now, however, party Of young men
have made arrangements to explore it,
and, If possible. penetrate to its bottom.
That it is OF great depth is certain. for
one can stand at the opening and heave
great stones down the declivity and the
sound will gradually die away in the
distance The young men have pro-
cured several hundred feet Of rope,
lanterns, torches and ladders. and will
thoroughly explore the cave.
What odds peculiar interest to the ex-
pedition and gives zest to the explorers
Is the well-known fact that IN the hey
day Of his career as bandit Joaquin
Murietta and his band Of faithful fol-
lowers made the recesses OF Table
mountain their base Of operations In
this section From there they would
swoop down on the miners, and then.
laden with gold dust, retreat TO the
mountain Search as they might. the
officers could not locate them. II has
been supposed by many that perhaps in
this same cave was where the famous
outlaw secreted himself. II may be,
too, that down deep in the bowels Of the
earth Joaquin hid the greater portion
OF his ill-gotten, but nevertheless just
as potent, wealth.

There Is man In California by the
name Of Newbuary who has great
hope In the future of the elephant, and
he wants to introduce the animal into
that state. All African explorers speak
highly Of elephant steaks The full
grown elephant weighs about seven
thousand pounds, and Mr.. Eewbuary
estimates that he can count on some
three Thousand pounds of frst-clnss
meat from each animal In twenty-five
years he expects TO soe elephant meat
for sale in all markets =
Steaks as big as mattresses will hang
up on all sides, and French elephant
chops with handles on them six feet
long will lie on the counters. Elephant
hides, he thinks, will be found valuable
for leather, slightly thick, perhaps. but
IL can be split Then there is the ivory,
always in good demand. The clip Of
wool from an elephant'will, OF course,
he admits. be small, but there we're
formerly woody animals Of the elephant
kind, and he docs not see why careful
breeding may not revive the species.
Fine all California elephants wool
clothing he considers o possibility of the
future. But it is not alone in these
ways that Mr.. Ncwbuary expects to
be able to teach California to profit
from the elephant 1t 10 powerful and
intelligent animal and as q beast Of
burden will be as successful in Cali
fornia as in India Il can be readily
broken TO harness, and can draw enor-
nous loads. Nor does he despair al
together of the elephant as driving
animal
He thinks It not unlikely that the
California trotting elephant nay be
evolved, as the American trotting horse
has been. Cabmen may yet call out:
"Keb, sir, kebt Nice closed keb and
rapid elephant" OF course Us saddle
beast the elephant has proved his supe-
riority In the Orient Its gait. how
ever, is at present irregular, but Mr..
Newbuary sees no reason why 1T may
not be taught graceful canter and o
swinging gallop. hut the most practi-
col place where the elephant can be put
to immediate usefulness Mr.. Newbuary
considers to be the Grunge groves
''ln picking oranges" says MIR. New
buary, "the trained elephant would be
a great success. He would come ns @
boon to orange growers. He'could readi-
ly reach oil over the trees with his trunk
and carefully pick the fruit and place II
in bago his back. He cou Id pick moro
oranges than ten men, and would never
strike for higher wages or fiirt with the
hired girl. If were asked to name in
three words the hope OF California for
the future, should answer: Ele-
plants, elephants, elephants"

Her Father.

A ,ynoepcseGirl who Shed IIor Blood for
Her Father.
A very touching but painful incident,
illustrating the depth of ignorance and
the wasted powers of self-abnegation
which exist among Japanese women. has
just been brought to light by the Kok-
kai The story runs that q florist
named Toyoshima Sakichi, fifty years
of age, was attacked by some disease OF
tho brain, and had been confined to his
bed since January Is. His daughter,
Yone, aged sixteen, who was engaged
as q servant in the house of q military
officer, was deeply grieved by the ILL
ness OF her father and his apparently
hopeless condition.
She went baresooted day by day to
Sokaleuji temple to pray, but oil to no
purpose. Her father continued as bad
as before At last one night an old man
with snow-whitc hair appeared to her
and told her thnt If she wished her
father to get we'll she must give him o
cupful OF blood from girl sixteen
years OF age On awaking she decided
that she would carry out the old mans
instructions.
She procured a sword from her mas
ters house and went home, telling her
parents about her dream and that she
intended to give her father a cup Of her
blood Her father, Mortified at his
daughters conduct, took the sword
from her and demonstrated with her
She returned to her work, but on tho
same night she cut her left arm in two
places and carried the cup of blood to
her father, imploring him to drink it.
The Mortified parents sent for doc
tor and had her wounds dressed and did
their best to drive away her supcrsti-
tious beliefs This is, of course, only
an exaggerated instance of the super
stition and ignorance which leads to all
the other sacrifices made by women for
their parents in Japan.

FRAMEWORK FOR A ROMANCE.

Strange Story Of the Woman Hermit on
tho Other Side Of tho Potomac.
On lonely bit of pine-fringod road
jus& across the Potomac and not for
from the city there stands rude apol-
ogy for o house, o mere frame lean-to
that at hrst seems deserted, says the
Washington Star. Closer investign-
ton. however, is always challenged by
gaunt pack of half dozen dogs. and
this usually brings out their owner, q
woman looking scarcely less wild, who
eyes all visitors, especially men, with
sulien distrust. On her story hangs the
tale, one of those sorry tales OF every
day life, that carries dull ache with Il
and makes us wonder that some people
should still care to live.
! It seems that years ago this victim Of
! circumstances was living happily-that
is to say, ut least like the rest of the
world, perhaps even a little better, and
cnvied by, maybe, those less fortunate.
In quarrel with which she had moth
ing to do her husband killed man.
Unfortunately she was witness of the
deed and, whatever may have been her
personal feelings In the matter, she re-
fused to shield the principal and IT was
on her evidence that her husband went
to the states prison.
The man vowed vengeance on her ond
all others who had o hand in his con-
viction and swore to kill her on sight
after his release. AS the years passed
on the fear of his threat grew upon her
and she moved from place to place in
hopes Of throwing him of the trail.
Finally the thought haunted her to the
extent OF driving her from society, and
as the time for the expiration of his SEN
tcnce drew near she took to the woods
and now lives in her lonely cabin With q
few chickens and pack of vicious dogs
for pets and companions.
She goes armed. it is said. and II the
would-be murderer should succeed in
tracking her down there is q serious
question whether he would be the VIC
tor or the victim. Her present name is
of course assumed and people living
within mile of her for the last year or
more have not yet learned her real one
She is good enough neighbor, but
neither lends nor borrows and does not
cultivate acquaintances.
The negroes, OF course, fear her as q
voudoo on account OF her strange mode
of life, and strange tales are told by
them OF "'pearances" that haunt the
lonely clearing. None Of them. for love
or money. will pass the place after dark,
and its name is a potent spell whereby
TO control unruly picinninnies.
So she lives, hiding from the fate
which will soon be seeking her. but II
it takes her unaware II will be more
than any other visitor in that region
has yet been able to do

The political situation is interesting,
as is usual at the present stage OF the
presidential campaign. In the Demo-
cratic party ex-President Cleveland is
strong with the masses, but lacks the
good wishes of the party bosses. Sena-
tor Hill with New York behind him
is nevertheless not showing much
strength at present. Senator German
seems to be possible compromise can
didate. Others are regarded as dark
horses" whose strength will only develop
later. In the Republican ranks the most
prominent candidate is President Har-
rison. However, Harrison lacks great
popular strength and has opposed to him
many OF the most prominent politicians
of his party. These seemed recently to
have agreed on Minister Lincoln as their
candidate, but at present are said to be
working for Senator Sherman. There
is no doubt that Blaine is the real choice
of his party, but he continues TO decline
the honor of leading again the party he
once led to defeat. The Farmers ALI
ance and Labor organization do not yet
seem to have determined upon their ut
titude in the coming campaign. The
Prohibitionists are actively engaged in
circulating Million Voters Agree
mont" and are inclined to name again
Ex-Governor st. John Us their candidate.
At present, It is impossible to predict the
result Of the nominating conventions or
of the election In November. but the
campaign promises at this stage to b. a
hot one.
