NATURAL WOODS IN EuocrEs.
They May Largely supplant the old
 Style Painted Vehicle.


 The conventional blaek-painted buggy will have sharp competition next season by the revival of the de. aland for natural woods. Already many of the buggy manufacturers have laid in large stocks of fine woods and are making them Up in a large number of light pleasure vehicles fo1 single horses. Many samples are shown in windows around the city and the bouleyards give promise oi having light-eolored rigs galore fo1 EeYt year. The woods are highly pol isned and in beauty will compare with the hahdsomest pianos. Birch. bird $, eye maple and oak will be the woods most generally used, because, wh.Is they finish beautifully, they are the cheapest. The oak will be stained in some instances, giving it the rich gold and darker shades. Mahogany and beech are the kinds selected by those who prefer the daep rich red shades. ' Mahogany also gives considerable va riation in color, that portion near the heart being darker than the part close to the bark of the tree. Careful match. Ing of the shades produces a charming effect. Ash and poplar augment the yellow shades. Hard maple has a good even dark color, and walnut ranges from dark to light. One order has been placed for red cedar, and it is said to be coming out of the prepara- tory courses a remarkably handsome production. By far the handsomest wood that can be used, in my opinion, ," said an experienced Wabash avenue huggY-maher yesterday, ssis the syca- more, and there will be number of buggies made of it. I made one in Wisconsin years ago, and I believe it was the prettiest piece of wood I ever saw, and the eoloring and shading is nest brilliant. It is of light red color, and Q good piece, well finished, gives the idea of flames, Or sometimes like the sunshine on dancing water. Such 8 piece Of wood. passing rapidly before the eyes in good bright light. will make any one admire it, while the more sentimental will be in raptures. Cypress is much like the sycamore, fanny and reddish, but not quite so brilliant. Rosewood and Gireassian and French Wa1nuts are magnificent and will be used in many. h these buggies the dash as well as the body will be Of the finest pieces that we can get, and we expect to have the most beautiful buggies in Chicago next year that can be found anywhere. There is no reason why the buggy should always be blaek-no more than there Is reason a person should always wear black clothes, and a natural wood buggy, in addition to it's fine appear ance. is cheaper to keep and requires little work to keep it clean. Even when dirty 1t is presentable. Chi eago Chronicle

LIKE DIAMOND WALLS.
The Beautiful Appearance of the Ir.
 ferior of Neyada Cavern

ferior of Nevada Cavern
 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. It Is in the limestone formation and has the appearance of an old worked-out mipe with it's stopes, raises and winzes. Ic is almost impossible to find the entrance, as it is covered with a growth of underbrush. The first thing that a person notices is smak creviee ir the rocks. but as he crawls into the crevice on hands and knees hs finds that it widens as he goes down @ fifteen feet from the entrance e5n stand ur and walk down 4aaal incline, which is at about ( grees. At a place thirty feet fro. the mouth there Is a raise some thirty feet high and a drift forty feet long. The sight which meets the cave seekerss gaze at this point is most beautiful On the ceiling large stalae- tites hang in clusters, and the walls are decorated with crystals of lime in- termingled with drops of water. giving 1t 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 cayerns, and on the left there is a passage big enough to admit the body, that opens into 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 is no timber near to make ladders the upper cavern has not yet been explored. There are. 10 doubt, other large chambers which could be found were closer exploration to be made. stalaetites and stalagmites can be seen in all directions. Water is dropping continually, and the light of q 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- nemueea Silver State.

AT THE PARIS MaRGUE.

subjeeting Criminals to Terrible
 Ordeal.
 A law that has recently come into operation gives prisoners the right of communicating with counsel within twenty-feur hours after their arrest says 9 Paris correspondent of the Lon don Standard. One Of the immediate consequences Of this measure may be to put q stop to those econfrontations. at the morgue. which are so dramatic l feature of French criminal proeed- ire. With 6 view to bringing mur- derer to confess, he is taken to the morgae. and there brought face to face with the body of his victim. Every artifee Is used to make the eonfFonta- ton as impressive as possible. as 1t is hoped that the terri ole sight he is com. pelled to gaze en will so trouble the murderer that he will lose command over himself and make a clean breast of his crime in his agitation. When he enters the loom he can see nothing, as the stone bench on which tAe body is exposed is concealed by Q curtain. The examining magistrate presses him with questions and then, at what he considers the opportune moment. gives the signal for the curtain to be pulled back The murderers who have stood this ordeal without fiinehipg have been comparatively few The majority ot them exhibit the utmost terror, and implore to be taken out of sight of the corpse. There is chair in the room where the eonfrontations take place, in which the majority of the most no- torious murderers Of the last thirty years lave been seated Their names are inscribed on its back, one Of them being Troppman, who, just before the Franeo-G German war, butehered an en- tire family. French criminal counsel have found that these confrontations almost always result in the confusion of their clients. have looked into the matter, and beliefe they have discov- cred that the examining magistrate has No legal right to subject 3 prisoner to this ordeal. For the future they are going to advise their elienta ts refuse }d allow themselves to be taken to the morguei and it seems that it Is q moot point whether the authorities will be able to convey them thither by force.

JUSTICE IN CHINA.
A Story of Ii Hung Chang and Would
 Be Prisoners.


 Be Prisoners.
 Of Ii Hung Chang Rumber1ess sto- ries are told in Chinese society. Now and then one reaches this country through our consu1s in China On one occasion when the premier was having g bitter fight with some of the more conservative members of the tslngli- yamen he received as 3 present q mag nifcent cake which he had reason to suspect contained poison, He put the cake aside and set all his powerful machinery to work to find out who was at the Lotion of the plot. The investigation was partly successful, the srime~ being traced to three men. of whom one, at least. was absolutely guilty, u had the trio arrested and brought to his yamen. When they arr rived they were ushered into his pres ence and were received in his courth- est manner The cake was produced, with the remark that spoliteness for bade his tasting it until the three generous donors had had an oppeftun- ity to enjoy it's excellence" Ii cut fhe cake and one Of his serYitors handed 1t to the unwilling guests Each took Q piee0 and ate, or pre-. tended to eat il. One erumbled the pieces and let them fall upon the floor. but the other two ate calmly, without manifesting any emotion Ten minu- utes and the two men began to show symptoms of suffering. Ii smiled be- aignantly and said to the man who had not eaten Your wisdom is so great that am compelled to pre- serve your. head as souvenir to transeendent genius" The man was removed and promptly decapitated. To the other two the premier remarked. Afhe cake that you are eating is not the one you sent me, but one which ] had my cook initiate The poison from which you are suffering exists only in your imagination. know of no way to cure your present pain ex' eept by letting you share the same fate as your friend who has just Jeff the room" As they were led away the statesman said to his retinue; It is a pity that man who can eat deadly corrosive poison with an un- moved countenance should so misapply the talent wherewith heaven has en- dowed him."

ARTIFICIAL LIGHT.

Day and Night.
 Within the next half century arti- 1cial light will be so inexpensive, so excellent and so abundant says 8 scientist. that it will wipe out the demareations of day and night" He continues: Darkness is one of the forces of nature against which eiyiliza- tion wages war. It facilitates crime, it impedes travel. it puts arbitrary lim- its on human exertioR. The time is coming when darkness will be thor oughly conquered, and the great cit ies flooded from end to end with a light that will make every vocation Of life as easy and as practicable at one hour as another In this latitude night Is undoubtedly the best time to work especially during the summer. The temperature from sunset to sunrise is cool and equable, there is almost al- ways a refreshing breeze. and as soon as darkness is abolished the people will gradually and naturally reverse their hours Of toil venture tie pre- dictien that noon in 4a5e will see the streets of our great cities deserted ex= eept for few midday f0ystefars and policemen with sunshades.
