There are two Iroquois Indians in
the United States navy. They grew
up together on government reserva-

hunting and fishing. They were
great friends and constant compan-
IONS Ten years ago they left the res
ervation to seek their fortunes after
the manner of the white man. Separ-
ating, they wandered over the country
in different directions, and by singu-
lar coincidence each enlisted in the
navy few years ago without the
knowledge of the other.
Several days ago they unexpectedly
came together again on the gun deck
of the receiving ship Minneapolis at
! the League Island navy yard and re.
newed the friendship Of their youth.
There was no doubt Of their. joy at
meeting. Notwithstanding the greeting
consisted simply of a grunt, hand
shake and q few words in their native
tongue TO their tribe these men
were known as Leaping Deer and
White Feather. In Uncle Sans
navy they bear the names of Thomas
France and John Johns. respectively.
They are described as good sailor men.

The largest Cave In Europe.

In. the Muota-thal. near Schwyn,
Switzerland. there is what is prob
ably the largest cave in Europe. The
existence of the cave had long been
known, but as it could only be enter
ed by crawling no one had troubled to
investigate the interior. This sum
mer, however, three separate parties
have explored it. The distance ira
versed amounts. altogether. to no less
than 5000 yards, and the end of the
cavern has not yet bcen reached, says
a contemporary. Evidently the grot-
to is greater than those of either Han
or the Adelsberg. and is to be counted
among the most striking of the curl
osities of the Alps. The entrance is
close to the village in which Suvaroff
had his headquarters in the campaign
of 1779; but that great general was
kept much too busy to notice it.-St.

What Fatiaues the Mind.

A very interesting report by Mr..
Parez, Of Edinburgh, issued by the
board of education, discusses the ques-
ton of mental fatigue. Attempts
have been made to estimate fatigue
by such tests as the loss of muscular
power, the decrease of sensibility In
the skin, or increase of inaccuracy in
the work done. Mathematics and
(strange to say gymnastics prove to
be the most exhausting subjects; for
eign languages and religious instruc-
ton come next, but at long interval:
the mother tongue, natural science,
geography and history make but little
calls on the system: singing and draw
ing still less. Afternoon work is in
ferior to and more firing than that
done in the morning, and even in the
latter efficiency increases up to a maxi
mum, and then begins to decline.

HOMES OF CAVE JEWELLERS.
Relics Of Prehistoric Races Found In
Arizona Mountains.

In the Sierra Ancha Mountains of
ella County. in the central part of
Arizona, region of remarkable seen
ic beauty, are abundant evidences of
the occupation of races that far ante
dated any OF the tribes now known in
the Southwest. Far up on the sides
OF fully score of canyons are the
ruins of veritable cities, built in lime
stone clefts and shallow caves, where
defence could readily be made against
the marauder. In the pure dry air of
the region much of the timber flooring
of the several stored cement built
homes of these ancient peoples is still
preserved, though of wood that now is
practically extinct in the Southwest
species of cypress, not one tree of
which can be found today in the re-
gion for q hundred miles around.
Far above the cliff dwellings. on the
very ridges of the pine covered noun
tains, have been discovered a num-
Der of caves, probably of natural orr
gin, yet enlarged and followed by the
hands of men of race now extinct.
One of these caves, of l. shape, APP
pears to have been a sacrificial tenn
pie, for the walls are scorched and in
some places the rock is almost fused
by the fierce flames Kindled long ago.
Beneath the sand covered floor were
found large number of small urns
filled with carborizcd bones of hui
man beings, who, possibly. had been
offered in sacrifice to some Molochlike
demon deity.
Another cave, practically tunnel
of cylindrical shape, has been dis
covered, running one hundred feet or
more into the mountain, ending in a
well that the explorers did not care to
investigate save by demonstrating its
considerable depth by means of drop
ping stones into it.
The latest discovery was made only
few weeks ago by William McFad-
den, a we'll known cattle man. Be-
hind large clump OF bushes he found
the entrance to cave of immense
size, which had been subdivided by
the ancient people into eighteen large
rooms. At the extreme end an air
shaft of artificial construction rose to
a connection with some natural crew
ices far above. The i.oors are of clay,
hard packed and smooth. In one of
the rooms was founG human skull,
possibly carried thither by soma wild
beast in later times.

THERE ARE FOOLS AND FOOLS.
Those Who Risk Death at Niagara anc
Those Who Ask Questions.

There are two distinct sets of fools
in this country" said the proprietor OF
hotel at Niagara Falls, as one of his
guests took seat in the lobby with
him, for the air outside was cold.
Il thought the classification of fools
was on good deal broader lines than
that" said the guest Il always
thought there were as many kinds of
fools as there were persons"
$50 there are." was the answer;
"but l mean two species which have
come under my special observation.
For example. there is the fool who
is forever trying to kill himself with
out wanting to make a complete sue
cess of it, and. then, the fool who is
always asking how the first fool sue
ceeded.
Every summer a half dozen per-
sons are advertised to shoot the rap
ids, or walk over the whirlpool on a
tightrope, or barrel themselveE up
and tumble over the falls. Some say
they are going to do it. but, like a
cheap sideshow, put all their employees
to work blowing horns outside the
tent. but when it comes to the real
performance they point to only a
chrome and pair of mirrors, to ex-
hibit their three heaued cannibal
And then some are less foolish and go
ahead and kill themselves outright.
Every mail brings me letters from
the other class of fools, who, for ex-
ample. will ask such a question as:
Will you please tell me how many
persons have gone over the Falls
alive?'
Il never answer those letters, of
course. It would help the United
States, l know, but I'd rather give
the money to the Treasury Depart
ment direct. If any one stopped me
on the street and asked me that ques-
ton, used to say:

ANTHRAcITE's DOWNS AND UPS.
Remarkable History of Coal That the

Remarkable History of Coal That the
Public at First Refused to Use.
Anthracite COAL. which we are all
so anxious to get Just now, was less
than a century ago, when the first eff
forts were made to market it, de-
nounced as fraud The people OF
those days declared that it was impos-
sible to burn such 4stone." At the
close of the eighteenth century, in
1701, the tehigh Coal Company tried
in vain to sell in Philadelphia the new
fuel which had been found on its prop
erty in Carbon county. Several at
tempts were made to burn anthracite,
but for a long time the results were
uniformly unsatisfactory. Finally, in
1915, the secret was accidentally dis
covered. Tests had been made in a
rolling mill at Schuylkill. After re-
peated attempts to make it burn by
means of frequently raking the fire,
the workmen gave up the experiment
in disgust, filed the furnace with the
worthless "black stones" and left it.
Returning few hurs afterwards they
were amazed to find fierce fire with
terrible heat, and thenceforward
the problem of burning anthrcite was
solved.
But the people were slow to believe
that it was possible to get heat by
burning black stones. AS late as 1888
one Charles Miner wrote as follows

published handbil.s in English and
German, stating the mode of burning
the coal, either in CRATES, smiths fires
or in stoves. Numerous certificates
were obtained and printed from black
smiths and others who had success
fully used the anthracite. Mr.. Cist
formed a model of coal stove and
got a number cast Together we
went to the several houses in the city
and prevailed on the masters to allow
us to kindle fires o. anthracite in their

and persuaded some to alter the too

Welsh Bros. Show.

Welsh Brothers. show exhibited in
this place last Friday. The audiences
were not as large as last year. The
entertainment provided was of high
character and Is better 25 cent show
than has ever come to this place.
Some disappointment rests with tn"
people who attended the show last
year, first because they did not show
all in the afternoon that was on the
program. In the first place the man
agement did not advertise a menagerie
and it should be known that at the af-
ternoon performance last year there
were SO many people that some of the
best attractions had to be omitted.
While the attendance this year could
not have been satisfactory to the man.
agement, the entertainment provided
was worth more than the price charg-
ed for admission. The exhibition OF
the trained horses alone was worth
more than the price of admission.
Welsh Bros, on account of too large a
crowd last year were compelled to omit
some of their best attractions and
hence a great many of our people were
disappointed. This year Welsh Bros
and those who remained away were
disappointed. The circus people dc
not propose to give up coming to Mid
dleburg as they propose coming back
next year. And as they have redeem
ed themselves, they are entitled to full
houses and we believe they will gel
them. All those who saw the show
