On the north side Of the 0sgood
range OF mountains, about four miles
east Of Eden creek. there Is a natural
cave Of quite large dimensions II Il
IN the limestone formation and has
the appearance of an cd worked-out
mine with its Slopes, raises and
vinzets It Is almost impossible to ind
the entrance, as 1t Is covered with a
growth Of underbrush. The first thing
that person notices Is small crevice
IN the rocks. but as he erawls into
the crevice on hands and knees he
ends that 1t vIdens as he goes down.
About fifteen feet from the entrance
q man can stand up and walk down
the gradual incline, which Is at about
90 degrees. At a place thirty feet
from the mouth there is a raise some
thirty feet high and drift forty feet
long. The sight which meets the cave
seekers gaze at this point is most
beautiful. On the ceiling large stalac-
dtes hang In clusters, and the walls
are decorated with crystals Of lime in
termingled with drops of water, giving
tt the appearance of being set with
millions Of diamonds. Farther down
the cave =widens until a chamber is
reached which Is over sixty feet across
and over fifty feet high. There are
numerous other passages or caverns,
and on the left there is a passage big
enough to admit the body, that opens
into a second chamber which is about
twenty feet across and ten or fifteen
feet high. In the main chamber, some
twenty feet high, can be seen the open
ing Of another chamber, but as there
II no timber near to make ladders
the upper cavern has not yet been
explored. There are, no doubt, other
barge chambers which could be found
we're closer exploration to be made.
Stalactites and stalagmites can be seen
In sall directions. Water Is dropping
continually, and the light Of a candle
shining upon these crystals and drops
OF water gives the cave a very en-
trancing appearance. This cave is the
home OF the wood rat, and there are
indications that there might be thou
sands Of the little animals which make
this natural wonder their home.-Win-

Try and eggs, they have formed club
Tor the purpose of developing q home
poultry business. Egg depots are to
be established in the principal cities,
notably at Chemnitz, Dresden and
Leipzig. The public are to be supplied
with eggs, the good quality and fresh
ness Of which will be absolutely guar
anteed. This system will give conf
dence to customers and at the same
time give poultry raisers a more GER
tain and a quicker market for their
product than they could otherwise Sc
cure. In order that bad eggs may be
traced to their origin, each poultryman
Is required. before sending his eggs to
the depot, to mark them with a sign
previously determined upon, which
will designate them as fresh eggs and
denote their source. For each egg sold
which proves to be inedible the pur-
chaser is .entitled to receive fifteen
good ones without charge; and the
products Of the egg-raiser who deliv-
cred the bad egg to the depot are to
be excluded therefrom for a stated
period.-London Telegraph.

CURIOUS ALRINo TREE.
One Discovered Growing In n Garden In

One Discovered Growing In n Garden In
London.
Much interest has been caused lately
tree in the Thiergarten. The numer-
Gus branches around the lower part of
the trunk have a pure white foliage,
such as Is seen on trees growing In
dark places, where no chlorophyll can
develop on account Of want Of light.
The same wilderness Of the leaves Is
also noticeable In a few Of the neigh
boring branches through the crown to
the top. People are often puzzled as
to the cause Of the popularity, and
many strange explanations are some
times given. The singular appearance
of the tree has been noticed regularly
for some years. This particular tree,
1t seems, had been attacked by a
swarm Of caterpillars and other crea-
lures of the same species. and the
foliage had already been destroyed;
bit still masses of caterpillars contin-
ued to crawl up and down the trunk,
and finally chung there in humps. To
preserve the beautiful tree, after other
means had been tried in vain, solu-
ton of acid was used, and the ground
all around was watered with II, as
well as the trunk and the branches,
which were specially drenched. This
treatment proved successful. The tree
gradually recovered, and now stands
in its full strength and freshness. but
has ever since shown the already de-
scribed wilderness Of its leaves. which
presents a by no means unpleasant
contrast to the otherwise dark green
foliage.-London Standard.
