LAVA CAVES.
Curious Formations Produced by the Cool
 ing of Molten Masses.


 The formation of caves in a lava stream is curious process, and one which the explorer in the Azores will be interested to realize as his investi- gations proceed, and in these islands it has some remarkable and perfect illus trations. It will be understood, says Outing, that the stream from a volcano soon begins to cool externally as it travels, but with great stream, say 90 or 40 feet thick, long time passes be- fore it becomes finally cooled and solid to its center. A large body of melted lava still remains liquid in it's interior, forming, as it were, huge conduit or tube full of the white hot matter. As this accumulates by the continued SUD- ply from above the vast pressure of the liquid on the lower end of the stream increases. The effect may be easily inn agined. The solid crust at the front of the flow breaks out; the melted interior rushes on again and the great tube is emptied of it's contents so far as they remain liquid, leaving behind hollow cavern which may. and occasionally does, extend for an uninterrupted length of several miles. In the course of centuries subsequent erllptions may deposit new beds of cinder or ash streams of lava to any extent above it, but the cave SC formed may remain in- tact.

FOR THE WISE HUSBAND AMI
 WIFE IN PHOENIX.

The loose cash which many persons thow away uselessly and worse, could often form basis of fortune and in- dependence for life. These people are their own worst enemies, though gen. erally found amongst the ranks of those who complain at the injustice of 'the world" But if a man will not be his own friend, how can he expect that others will? Golden opportunities are being offered today to hundreds of men and women in Phoenix-a city in which thousands of people in the United States intend to invest money within the coming year. Do not let your present opportunity pass, even were you to commence with a ten dol lar investment. Read Kilroy's New Palestine ad in this and other Phoenix dailies and tell your friends about it.
