AN ECHO OF PAYDAY.
Natives Of Sunny Italy Indulge in
Pleasantries on Saturday Night.

Saturday was payday at the North
west breaker. Salvatore Chere and
Nick Foletti. who board with Frank
Rocci on Hospital street, were among
the miners who received the wages due
them. Saturday evening they notified
Rocci that they would not be In until
late. Rocci told them that IL they
stayed out after midnight they would
not get in. They said that would be
all right and started to enjoy them
selves.
About 1880 on Sunday morning the
twain arrived at their home, both i'm
mersed internally with a miscellaneous
assortment Of the kind Of liquor that
makes an Italian want to draw his still
letto. After repeated hammerings on
the front door their landlord stuck his
head out of the window to see what
was going on. Catching sight of him
his boarders commenced to yell en-
treaties at him to let them in, to which
Rocci emphatically declined to yield.
The entreaties changed to shouts OF
defiance and finally the two celebrators
made foot ball rush at the door and
broke it down. Then they hunted for
Roccl, with a miniature arsenal OF
weapons. The latter had fled for help,
however
Yesterday morning Rocci appeared
before Alderman Morrison for war
rants for his two unruly guests. Fol-
letti was secured and placed in the city
Jail. Later Chere came to the alder
mans Office and surrendered himself.
At the hearing yesterday afternoon
Folletti was held in $500 bail on the
charge of carrying concealed weapons,
but the evidence was not strong
enough to hold Chere and Rocci with
drew his complaint against him. Fol-
letti was taken to Scranton last night
by Constable Moran.

been more or less vandalism in the
past few years and many OF the fin
est crystals have been broken off from
the walls and ceilings and sold.
The Black Hills has two other caves

more than forty miles apart. The for

haps little coarscr in texture. There
are a great many beautiful chambers
in Crystal cave that rival in grandeur
those of Wind cave. The most re-
markable chambers are the "<lOn-

"Chamber of the Gods and the cit
adel." This cave. too. has a number
of noted chambers. which have been
dedicated to societies and orders OF
this state. Over fifty miles Of pass
ageways have been opened up. there
being over 200 chambers. The deepest
chamber is about 300 feet below the
level of the little creek, which flows
down the steep gorges OF the Crystal
cave district.
About sixteen miles west of Custer
a new cave has just been discovered,
which has promised to become a close
rival of both Wind and Crystal caves.

which they at once commenced to en-
piore. Ten miles of passageways have
already been opened up and some of
the most beautiful crystals of lime in
all the different stages of hardness
have been taken out. One chamber,
800 feet square, has been found.
