Near the Redbud cave is another enc of
smaller dimensions. 1t is about four miles
In length and contains tons Of guano de-
post. This cave has probably been the re-
sort OF millions Of bats for countless ages
The gigantic mastodon, while feeding near
the mouth OF the cave, has no doubt been
alarmed by the swish Of the wings of .be
myrfads of bats as they entered or emerged
from their underground abode. From that
remote period down through the intervene
ing ages these nocturnal hybrids have been
depostttng the valuable bed Of guauo which
has just been discovered
Samples OF the guano have been sent to
Springfield for experimental purposes, and If
is said to be of superior quality. There is a
natural well in the cave which Is OF preat

cavernous depths reveals the fact that tbera

TETHKR BALL VOW POPULAR.
The ame Said to Improve the Form and Impart
Agility and Quiokuess.

On any number OF lawns this year you
can SEQ toll polo around which a party OF
girls and boys with tennis rackets are watch
ing the circling flights Of a string attached
to the pole and ending In a plummet In the
shape Of q tennis ball. This Is the tether
ball pole which has gained popular favor this
year. The game Is being prescribed by
many doctors who are consulted as TO the
best sort OF exercise for reducing the hesh
and limberins up the body,
The pole Ia about ten feet high and sir
feet from the ground is a elaCk band With
tennis bats the players endeavor to strike the
ball so that it will coil the string around
the pole above the darkened portion,
To do this the players stand at a. pre-
scribed distance from the pole. a circle Of
thres feet being marked on, The game
may be played In sets or each player may
take a certain number OF strokes In his en-
deayor TO get the string coiled at the proper
mark. The game requires q lot OF jumping
around and raising OF the arms above the
head and Is undoubtedly a good exercise
for gaining quickness on the feet and getting
on any accupmulated flesh about the waist.
Tether ball originated from tennis. the
Idea being to give practice In serving the
ball. But II proved such a healthful game
In itself that Il has speedily become popular
on ita own account '--.--

 Kingman Miner, William Epper- son, a young cowman Of Blackberry, accidently shot himself last Saturday evening, the bullet also wounding a Miss Rucker on the leg near the ankle. Epperson had been out oD the range rounding up horses and went in to supper at the Rucker house with his gun buckled on. After eating he moved his chair back from the table and while moving around in the chair the gun was in some unaccountable manner discharged, the bullet plough ing a groove through Epperson's hip and thigh, passing under the table and through Miss Fuckers leg close to the ankle. Epperson's wound is slight, but the injury to Miss Rucker is quite severe. Dr. Finn was called | upon to attend the injured.

A high protectionist'' is man who
is in favor of the levy OF a prohibitive
duty on all foreign products. This
policy works to the detriment of the
public for it leaves the home consumer
wholly at the mercy of the producers
most of whom have formed trusts and
combinations wholly removing all
home competition. The true protec.
Zionist and Republican, as we under
stand it, is one who believes in the i'm.
position Of a duty only on such goods
and at such rate as will place the
home producer on an equal footing
with his foreign competitor and the
removal of such part of the duty az
may be in excess of this difference il
