The Well of Frozen Air.

Near Dayton, Ore, there is a wei
locally known as the well Of frozen
air." In drilling it a stratum OF
frozen clay and gravel was encount-
cred at a depth Of flfty-fve feet.
After passing through I've feet Of
this, numerous cavities were en-
countered from which cold air came
with sharp gusts. The escape OF the
air from the well may be heard a
distance Of nearly 200 yards, and it
is so frigid that Is not possible for
any one TO hold his hand over the
opening for more than few minutes
without having 1t frozen stiff. Ac-
cording TO an exchange bucketful
Of water set near the mouth OF the
well will freeze through during one
nights time. 1t Is needessly TO add
that work on the well was abandoned
as soon as these frigid blasts found
vent through the opening made by
the drill.

THE SPIDER AND THE FLY.

aud exerting his efforts in behalf of a
creature of another order. 1t fell to
my lot not long ago to witness an act
If this kind. Outside a grocery store
there stood a sugar barrel, emptled
of its contents. There was one
particular fly near the bottom of the
outside of the barrel, and right be-
side him stood a good-siZed yellow
Jacket. All of a sudden a great,
gray spider hurried out of his web
and sped straight for the fly. In
another moment the fly was in his
grasp and a struggle began. The fly
tried so hard to get away that he
must have attracted the attention of
the yellow jacket, for that worthy
turned around and looked right at
the contestants. Then as quick as a
fash he flew into the fray himself,
and the spider found that he had two
enemies to deal with. The yellow.
Jacket seemed very careful not II
burt the fly, but it was caution"
the way he put it to the spider At
last the spider released his hold on
the fly and directed all his efforts Il
subduing the yellow jacket. Then
the battle began in earnest. Time
and again the spider sunk his fangs
into the yellow jacket, and time and
again was he pierced through with
his enemy's terrible sword, the fly
all this time buzzing over the heads
Of the two cOmbatants Finally tho
spider, unable to withstand the
thrusts any longer, gave up the ghost
and died. The yellow jacket stung
aim once more and then waddled of
with torn wing and a wounded leg,
the fly following him.

A DAMASCUS NIGHTINGALE.
BY CLINTON scoLLARD.

On the crimson edge of the eve,
By the Barada's fiutelike flow,
When the shadow shuttles began TO weave
And the mountain airs to blow,
With the sight of the nights first star,
As tho IL were dumb too long,
There burst on the ear a wondrous bar
From spirit lowered with song.
And swift 1t swelled to a strain
That rippled and rose and ran
Through every chord of Joy or pain
That throbs in the heart of man.
1t told of love tightening life
And of sorrow's bitter breath;
1t pealed pBan of peace from strife
And Of triumph over death.
And knew it for Gods own bird
prophet voice in the dark;
The budding stars in the heaven heard,
For they could not choose but bark.
Then the worn earth hid its face
And dreamed its dream of the dawn;
The voice of man WIS stilled for a space,
But the bird sang on and on.

WASHINGTON crTY. Sept. 8-The Demo-
cratic repeal senators have practically
given up the idea that the Sherman law
can be repealed uncondisionally, and have.
after numerous conferences decided upon
compromise which they believe will end
the long fight and secure the passage of a
bill to relieve the present situation by the
end of next week. Senator German and
other Democratic repeal senators are ac-
lively engaged arranging the terms of the
compromise, and tonight believe they have
succeeded. 1t involves concessions on
both sides. repeal of the pur-
chase clause, coinage Of specified
amount of 100000 or s2.5oo. 900
per month until the total silver coinage
amounts to 500. .0oo. 900: the coinage of all
the bullion in the treasury and the sale of
gold bonds TO increase the gold reserve to
an amount which is deemed sufficient TO
insure the maintenance of gold and silver
money at parity.
