LAVA CAVES.
Curious Formations Produced by the Cool
 Ing Of Molten Masses.


 The formation of caves in lava stream is q, curious process, and enc 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 volcano soon begins to cool externally as it travels, but with great stream, say 30 or 40 feet thick. q long time passes be- fore it becomes finally cooled and solid to it's 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 oA the lower end of the stream increases. The effect may be easily i'm agined. The solid crust at the front of the flow breaks out; the melted interior rushes on again and the great tube is emptled 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 eruptions 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.

THE TAPER.

Keeps Up an Industrious Racket During
 Absence of Workmen.
 A man fell from the housetop in the city of Aberdeen; and was brought into hospital with broken bones. He was asked what was his trade, and replied that he was tapper. No one had ever heard of such a thing before, says the Amateur Emigrant; the officials were filled with curiosity; they besought an explanation. It appeared that when a party of skaters were engaged upon a roof they would now and then be taken with fancy for the public house. Now, a seamstress, for example, might slip away from her work and no one be the wiser, but if these fellows adjourned the tapping of the mallets would cease, and thus the neighborhood would be advised of their dereliction. Hence the career of the tapper. He has to do the tapping and keep up an industrious hustle on the l. &setop during the ab- sence of the skaters.
 F,hen he taps for only one or two the thing is child Is play, but when he has to represent a whole troop it is then that he earns his money in the sweat of his brow. Then must he bound from spot to spot, reduplicate, triplicate, sextuplfcate his single personality, and swell and hasten his blows, until he produces a perfect illusion for the ear, and you wouli swear that crowd of emulous masons were continuing mer- rily to roof the house. It must be a strange sight from an upper window.

UNPROTECTED GAME.
Suggestions for Sportsmen Who Want to
 Shoot Near Cities.

Shoot Near Cities.
 A good many shooters are puzzled to know how they can get practice for bird-shooting near the cities during close seasons without paying for prac- tice at the traps.
 There are several kinds of birds which fly in such'a manner as to require skill in the killing, and are not protected by law at any time. Of course, a smaIl- gauge gun is best for such practice, as it takes more skill to kill with it than euired the better the practice.
 The kingfsher is a rapidly-darting flyer, rather shy and hard to kill. With a 2S-gauge gun a. shooters abilities would be well tested.
 The English sparrow, if put up badly scared, will give considerable sport, and the man who can get three with two shots out of small flying flock may regard himself as good shot. Of course, a man wouldn' t aim at the center of the flock, and pull. He aims at par ticular birds, and, if he misses the ones d1Uleu du, Il6 CALLS llle SllOl d. JlllSS. IOeu- winged and crow black birds fly rap idly, when their nests are not near by. They are not protected, and may be found in partly wooded pastures.
 Some sportsmen may object to this as being useless slaughter, and it would be if the birds were thrown away. He would dress them all, except the king fishers, which taste fshy, and the pot pie they make would be followed by another before long. The English spar rows make a fine stew, as the flesh is al- ways hard and sweet.

But, notwithstanding they are now in tn, city itself, there are few lots for sale vet at prices corresponding with the "Sound Money Doctrine of President Cleveland and his cuckoos, which means that kind of dollar which will buy two dollars worth of property. These lots are near the new cleo tric car line which is now in operation. The lots are in the city and their occupants do not need to ride into town, but the presence
 of electric street cars is popular and adds market value to the property. Inside of five years this will be business property.

1t has been reported in some OF the
county newspapers that the money
question had been discussed at II
meeting of the Deer Creek Farmers
club and that II majority of the mem
h"rs favored free coinage. We are
in ii position to state authoritatively,
that no such discussion has ever taken
place on this political question or any
other, since the club has been in cX-
ist"nce.
Farmers Clubs are organized not for
the purpose of aiding or assisting any

the purpose of an intelligent exchange
of views on the subject of husbandry.

As noted elsewhere the gold reserve
has gone beyond the 800, 00O, 900 mark
and the Treasury officials are feeling
easier again.
This was brought about by the New
York Bankers depositiug the neces
sary amount which they have hoard
ed for sometime, in exchange for
treasury notes which are redeemable
in gold at pleasure. The action OF
the foreign bankers in promising to
keep the gold reserve intact also had
some effect.
The New York lF0TM in speaking
OF their joint action says:
This action carries its moral. Ii inevita-
bly, raises the question why the bankers did
not place their store of gold freely AT the
disposal of the Government in 1895, aud
again last winter. The World appealed TO
them 10 do so. 1t pointed out to them that
they had no legitimate use for the goldand that
legal-tender Treasury notes would not serve
swell. They had no notes outstanding re
'quiTing redemption in gold. But arguments
and appeals aud warnings were alike in vain.
The bankers who are now Iaost active in
furnishing the Government with gold were
then most UcNve In deplcting!t reserve; ~ III
making the President and Secretary Of the
Treasury believe that only i"nd issue could
save the country from apantr and ;hc Govern
mont from dishon"T
Nothing has contributed more powerfully
to the popular uprising which now disturh3
the country than the action of the bankers
syndicate which took the Government 10y the
throat and eYnctcd enormous profits from
bond sales that its members helped To make
necessary. Nothing has more completely
iuallied the position of ihc Iiorii, unless i
he the success of the public bond sale who Ii
il forced, than the action nt the bankers now
in successfully supporting the Treasury With
out loss To themselves or cost to the people
precisely as we said they could and should do
IL February.
The bankers and their allies should not stop
here. They should study the deeper meaning
of the popular unrest that has disrupted one
great party and mcnaces the expected easy
triumph of the other. They should under
stand that deep seated and widespread dis
content and revolt among the people do not
come without some reason. The grievance is
real, though the remedy proposed may he
wrong. 1t will not do to call two millions of
voters anarchists, communists or lunatics
They are not such They have just causes of
complaint in the bond transactions of the past
year aud half, in the notification of the in
come tax and other tax-dodging of the
wealthy classes, i'll the stock-watering and
property -wreckinG operations of Wall street,
and i'll the cXtOrtions and rohheries OF the
trusts and monOpolies.
Steadily for twelve years Tic World has ut
tered its warning and made its appeal. The
money power and the political piutocrats and
time servers have not needed until now. At
last they are learning. The pOrtents now
alarm them. Wild quack remedies, worse
perhaps than the disease threaten the coun-
try. The oyertun may not come now, but il
will come sometime under more moderate and
rational leadership, if it shall not be avcrtcd
by complete change in the direction, control
and tendencies of the government.

PARTY ORGANIZATION.

We are glad to note that the Demo
Gratis are organizing clubs throughout
the county. 1t is only by united
action that the Democrats can achieve
a victory next fall. Individual effort
is necessary and important, but with
out u unity OF action and solid front
to the enemy, defeat at the polls is
sure to follow.
The organization of Bryan and
Sewall Clubs brings within the rank
and file many who would be other
wise Indifferent. They would vote
the Democratic ticket, but would not
work to make votes. BY having their
enthusiasm aroused they become ac-
tive workers in the party organiza-
ton.
The Republican party is splendidly
organized. 1t has themonopolists and
large firms who are fattened by its
protective policy as Il source of re.
venue to carry Oh the campaign.
