One of Natnra,s wonders.

In the extreme eastern edge of Ari-
IONA, some forty miles west by south Of
that remote pueblo, Juni, N NJ, there
is most remarkable natural phenom-
enon-a great, shallow, salt lake IN a
bowl-like depression, the sink itself be-
ing some hundreds of feet deep and
three miles across. The basin, all that
portion OF it not taken up by the lake,
is dazzling white with millions upon
millions of salt crystals. In the center
of the lake rises what appears to be a
conc-shapcd volcanic peak. Should you
take the trouble to ford the lake and
explore this peak-a task neither dis
agreeable nor dangcrous-you will find
instead of 4 crater of smoking, soothing
mud miniature lake in the middle OF
The peak. clear as crystal and a. pure as
any spring water.

EXCUSES WHICH NOTExCuSE
Always Be Ready to Explain when
CAUGHT In ERanicianS l,ircu n. u a I.csu

Always BE Ready to Explain Whom
Caught in sRspicious circumstances.
What is much needed for persons Sin
trouble" and especially for those caught
in fiagrantc delictu, is good excuse,
an explanation on the spur of the mo-
nent for their having, for example,
three gold watches about them.
An instance of this kind occurred
only the Other morning in London. VS.
correspondent Of the San Francisco
Argonaut
gentleman was stopped at five Il.
m. and requested to explain the fact Of
his carrying four umbrellas. 1t had
been fine day. SO that one seemed I'M
necessary. The best account he could
give of himself was that his mistress
had been out al Il party and he was car
rying her property home.
The inctf!cicncy of an excuse OF this
sort is really lamcntab!c In no society
do ladies take four umbrellas to an
eve ming party. 1t would have been
better for the poor wretch TO have an
nounced himself IS ia pancse noble
man of the first class, who in Difference
to western customs. was earring four
umbrellas instead of four swords"
This would have at least staggered
the policeman as being something out
of his beat.
In another case three individuals are
found armed to the teeth under the
pantry table of a gcntleman's house
who have no better explanation to give
OF their position than they were get
ting out OF the rain" These excuses
are pitiful and almost pathetic.

struck it amidships with such force

Would Serve Them Right.

Salt Lake Tribune: When the Or
der reaches Honolulu of the determin-
alton of the President of the United
States to restore to the throne, against
all the protests of the respectable in
habitants of the islands, lewd and
ignorant Queen, we hope there will
be British squadron in the harbor;
We hope that the chief officers of the
Provisional Government will make an
appeal to the Admiral of that squadron;
that he will proceed to back the Pro-
visional Government by his marines
and ships of war; that then the Pro-
visional Government will proceed to
annex the islands to the British Crown.
That would place the American Gov
eminent in just such a position as 1t
deserves to be placed, and while the
United States would lose the islands,
it would have a notice served upon 1T
which would be lesson to all execu-
tives which are to be hereafter that
even the United States is not big
enough to be dog in the manger, to
to refuse to do anything itself and to
refuse to prevent any other nation
from acting. It would place the pres
ent Democratic Administration just
where it deserves to be placed, and
would make a fitting capstone to it's
career up to date.

Feeds Hogs on Horse Flesh.

An exchange says that w. S. Bailey,
the Churchill cattleman, is feeding
his hogs on horse flesh. He has a
large number of mustangs that are no
use to him and he is having them shot
for his hogs to feed on. Hogs could
not be fed on cleaner or better meat
than that of the horse-in fact it is
far preferable to rotten swill or to
dead and putrid animals.
