bied onto the hiding place OF oana
of robbers. They were browning
around in a very wild and unfre-
ouented place on the banks of the
OIeDtangy, near the little village OF
Clinton. when their attention was
attracted to a deep hoe in the
ground. very similar in appearance
to the many sinkholes which are
found in this part of the country.
Davis went down and found the open
ing to be an outer entrance to SUD-
terranean passage in the SIDE OF the
hill. Torches were improvised and
the two men crawled into the en-
trance. About ten feet in they found
two or three lodges Of rock, arranged
like short flight OF steps, which led
down into a large chamber. line
light from the torches showed the
room to be nearly square, measuring
ten feet. The floor, walls and cell
ings, though formed only OF clay soil,
were as hard as stone or the cement
ed floor of cellar. A hole in the
wall near one corner Of this chamber
proved to be door opening to low
narrow passageway which led to a
room similar in size and appearance
to the first, except that the ceiling
was arched.
Another door opened from this
chamber into a third chamber, the
largest of them all, with high vault
ed ceiling formed by an immense
arched roof. From this hall another
gallery led to a~smaller inner room
farther in the earth. All four Of the
rooms were built in the solid clay.
dry and hard, and devoid of all liv-
ing things. Nothing of much i'm
portance was found, although the
general appearances of the subterran-
can cavities gave evidence that it
was once used by gang of men as a
storehouse or hiding place. The par
tition walls between the rooms were
from four to eight feet thick, while
the ceilings were from seven to tlf-
teen feet high. The rooms were all
perfectly dark, save from the light
of the torches. The cave had no ven
tilation whatever except that afford
ed from the outer opening. When
the rooms were dug how they were
constructed and what became of the
earth removed from them. can of
course, be the merest conjecture 1t
seems, however, that they were used
by outlaws at no very remote period.

A lean and lazy team, bearded

THE profits Of the gambling tables
at Monte Carlo last year were nearly
four and half millions of dollars.
This ought to be pretty good proof
that gambling pays-not the player,
but the man who furnishes the player
with abundant opportunities to lose
his money. Those profits of four and
a half millions mean the wreck OF
many a fortune, the waste Of hard
earned money, the loss of self.re-
spect, the end of many life. Sui
eide has followed many a nights
play at the tables of Monaco until
now every effort is made to suppress
the news when an unlucky gambler
puts a bullet through his brain. Yet
the playing goes on, and the last re-
port from there states that the tables
were never better patronized than
they are to-day.

The two plants are really SO dissimi-
lar that it would seem impossible
that horseradish growers should allow
the poison plant to grow alongside
the esculent. Yet the two have been
COMPOUNDED so much that every doc
tor knows what to suspect when sup
posed horseradish makes anybody i'll.
The other case of poisoning was
that Of woman who bought box
Of sardines. very cheap from a push
cart peddler in Hester street, and
with her two little girls, aged eight
and three, made lunch off them.
All three became very sick. A little
girl in passing heard them grooming,
and entering the room found them
lying helpless on the floor. The
child told the housekeeper and the
latter sent for an ambulance which
took the sufferers to the hospital.
Under treatment the condition of
the patients rapidly improved. The
sickness is supposed to have been
caused by tin or ptomaines, as the
sardines were in bad condition.

Residential Hotel Life.

Fifty years ago residential hotel
life was comparatively unknown.
says the Hotel Gazette. Servants
abounded, rents were reasonable, DO
litical bosses gave kindly treatment
to taxpayers, and housekeeping was
a la mode. Hotel life half a century
ago belonged to the tourist, the Wis
liant and the bachelor who loved to
take mine ease in mine own inn. !"
Electric bells in hotels were as un-
known as electric lights. He who
has slept in New York's luxurious
hotel temples of to-day, who has pat
ronized hostelries in the British.
French and German capitals, and
even battled with Egyptian feas in
the celebrated hotel at Cairo, and
who has partaken of hotel hospitality
in many other American cities. can
sympathize heartily with the usually
apathetic Briton who recently de-
clared that even the secont-rate
hotels of New York surpass in COM
fort and menage any Others in the
world.

ANOTHER testimony to the ener-
waiting and weakening effects of
luxury has been furnished by the
undertakers who have been holding
a convention in Chicago. The
funeral directors, like most other
people, complain of the dizziness of
trade. Not only are cheaper cot1ins
bought and less expensive funerals
ordered, but fewer people are dying
than in good times. Being philoso-
phical from the very nature of their
calling, the mortuary experts have
figured out that the decreased death
rate is due to the fact that the peo-
pie, having less money to spend,
don't stuff themselves with indi-
gestible food or indulge in other I'M
healthful luXuries That IS to say,
they are getting closer to primitive
nature, and are healthier and hap
pier in consequence Thus there are,
it seems, relieving features in the
hard times as we'll as in most other
misfortunes.

THE latest fashion in burglaries is

THE latest fashion in burglaries is
worthy the romance of the border.
Nothing heater was ever done in q
forest or on Robin Hoods highways
than the job performed in Chicago by
party Of gentlemen thieves who
rang q door bell, politely entered the
house when the door was opened,
softly closed the door and then pro-
ceeded to business. While one cor
raled the family in the parlor under
a cooked revolver, the others ran
sacked the house. A neighbor, who
happened to ring the bell untimely,
was not permitted, of course, to re.
ceive any response, and went disap-
pointed away, believing the family
not to be at home. They were not
"at home" at that particular time,
owing to circumstances over which
they had no control. If this fashion
of burglary is to persist, it will be
necessary to request intending callers
kindly to send their cards up by a
string from the gateway to an attic
window before doors may be prudent
ly opened.
