INEXPERIENCED BATS.
Found in a Cavern One Hundred Feet
 Below the Surface of the Earth.

Found in Cavern One Hundred Feet Below the Surface of the Earth. A nest of live bats was found one hundred feet under ground in Snowshoe l Gulch, near Cottage Grove, the other 1 day This is considered a most remark able discovery, and those who have vis- I fted the place and seen the animals are at loss to account for 1t.
 John Dinman and Andrew Wilson have been developing a claim in the gulch by running @ tunnel to reach the vein. The tunnel runs obliquely, and a few days ago, when depth of one hun- dred and fifty feet had been reached, the rock began to assume 8 different condition. It sounded loose, or hollow l iu that particular spot, and the part l nerss knew that they were nearing what in miners parlance is called "a change" Their "holes" were nearly | loaded when this discovery was made, but they continued loading and then went to the surface and touched off the charge. Upon their return they expect ed to find vein uncovered, or at least different rock from that through which they were running.
 But quite different matter attracted their attention when they went back to the end of the tunnel, and the circum- stance has been the wonder of the en- tire country ever since. It has created an immense amount of discussion, sci entific and otherwise, but no certain ex- pianation has yet been adduced.
 Instead of finding ore or any particu- lar change in the rock they found the tunnel full of bats. The cause of this
 peculiar sound that indicated a change of ground was small cave, and into
 this their last shots broke, and out of 1t
 came the bats. How the bats got into
 the cave is the problem, and what sus-
 tained them there? The point Is about
 one hundred feet below the surface, and there is apparently no opening or means
 of ingress or exit. The bats when
 caught and taken out to the daylight
 appeared to be without eyes and able to fly but little way; in fact their wings were but meagrely developed. The first thing that attracted the mems attention upon their return to the tun- nel was the peculiar odor, which, not withstanding the, amount of gas from the exploded power, was quite disagree able.
 The only solution of the strange oc- I>currence that has yet been offered lies in the fact that the rock is of metamor- phic and aqueos origin, and, being In the Cascade range, is of recent occur renee. The rockfis a closely bedded
 shale, and at the time of the geological disturbance that put 1t into it's present position the bats had their nests there and then became incased as they were found. It would seem. too, that the bats must be of that nature that be- comes dormant and able to retain life without food. An effort was made to save some of them alive, but they rap Idly succumbed to the sunlight and fresh air.-San Francisco Call

THE FLOODS AT GRENoBLE.

The floods, at Voiron and along the valley of the Morges have wrought terrible desolation. Late on Saturday night a cloudburst in the highland cantons of Sasserzage and Willard de Lans transformed the hill streams into torrents, and at the same time an enormous mass of rock slipped down the mountainsf7e, and completely blocked the old new roads, forming a barrier thirty feet high and twenty feet thick. Besides this, fallen trees and heaps of debris were washed down by the swollen waters, and at daybreak yesterday morning what had been smiling valley was transformed into scene of deso1ation. At many villages the houses fell, cattle were swept away, and the inhabitants were obliged to flee for their lives, leaving all their property behind. Of the many factories along the riverside nearly all are practically destroyed, 300 work shops being wrecked and washed out The appearance of the town is lamen- table. The bridges of the Place St. Bruno and footbridge have dis appeared, together with several ad- jacent shops. The streets are filled with debris from the flooded ware houses and factories, including bales of cloth, immense drums of spun thread and rolls of silk. The shops are filled with uprooted trees, balks of timber, and huge stones and the roads, both ip the town and the adjacent country, are either destroyed or so torn up by fallen trees as to be impossible. The gas works were flooded out, and the town will be without gas for at least a fortnight.
 Many merchants and shopkeepers are ruined and thousands of workpeople are without work or shelter. The wa ters rushed In so suddenly that many people barely escaped with their lives. In some of the cafes and shops the oc- cupants were up to their waists, or even | their shoulders in water before they knew what had happened. Many cases | of self-sacrificing devotion and heroic rescue are reported. The only redeem | ing feature of the disaster is that there l has been little loss of life. It Is
 rumored that a family of six persons perished, but so far, only the bodies of two women, one of them employed at
 a paper factory at Lairot, hamlet
 near Voiron, have been recovered. The

manufactorles destroyed include silk mills, and turneries, some of them enl- ploying as many as 400 hands. The agricultural community has suffered as severely as the commercial, for the harvest has been completely destroyed all down the valley, and the farm buildings are all more or less damaged. The high road from Volron to Moirans and Vourey Is cut at every step by enormous uprooted trees. The waters are now slowly going down, leaving as they subside. great stretches of mud and ooze. in which the soldiers aided by the inhabitants, are working night and day cutting channels to drain the flood back to the river. The Municipal Council has decided to blow up the dam at Castelbon, In order to facilitate the escape of the water, which is still three feet deep In some of the houses, es- pecially at Moirans. where several buildings threaten to collapse every moment. The authorities are making every effort to relieve the distress, but the full extent of the calamity cannot yet be accurately estimated.-Gr Correspondence London Standard, June

THE FIRST ROCK SALT MINE.

''I really believe that. many of the greatest discoveries are the result of pure accident, and this applies not only to scientific facts, but also to more ma terial matters" remarked General Dud- ley Avery. Accident brought the great salt deposit on Avery's Island to light after it's croppings had been worked for nearly half a century. My grandfather sold salt years before the war, and my father in his youth fol- flowed the same methods of production, even after my fathers tine but it re- maIned for my brother John, then a boy of sixteen to really make manifest the remarkable advantages which the island possessed in the matter of rock salt mining. It was during the war Salt was selling in New Orleans for eleven dollars a sack. This was at a period when the salt works of the is- land were not being made use of You see, my grandfather manufactured salt by digging wells, into which the salt water flowed in great quantities, and this water he boiled, evaporating the moisture and leaving @ residue of fine salt.
The daily morning journal and courier., 1897-07-20

"Wh<n my brother learned of the high brioe of salt In New Orleans he Wenf to my father. then practising law In Eaton Rouge, and suggested that he be given permission to work the then abandoned wells and make pin money Tor himself. There was no objection, and with the assistance of several slaves John proceeded to open the old wells by clearing out the accumulation Of debris and boiling the brine, as his grandfather did years before him. He opened number of new wells, and was soon selling salt at great rate, but the demand increased, and he decided to open a big well some ten feet square. The work proceeded. but the usual depth was reached with no result, The water did not flow. He concluded to dig deeper and at sixteen feet came upon what the negro diggers said was an old stump. Failing to chop the stump with an axe, the negro conclu- ded he had struck bed of rock, and when my brother descended into the ex- caVation he managed with a cold chisel to cut out piece of what he thought was transparent rock My ia ther, how ever, who happened to be on the island at the time, knew what had been dis covered, and in the course of little While the wonder of the discovery had been no1sed all over the country.
 Thus was discovered the first rock salt deposit In the south, and a few months after that time a dozen shafts were being worked In a crude way and we were shipping salt to richmond ill great quantities, at least, great for that period in the worlds history. Work has progressed almost steadily since that time, and we are shortly to begin a new shaft, which will go deeper than ever.- New Orleans Times Democrat.
