CAVE OF THE WINDS.
The Vision Carved In stone Under
It's Hills of Dakota.


It's Hills of Dakota.
The great wind ave has the form of
al eight story house, each story, or
stratum, containing a distinct forma-
ton of it's own and each containing
chambers of a size and magnificence of
decoration such as have never been
found in any subterranean cavern of
the world.
1t is a dream, a nightmare, a vision,
carved in solid stone under the green
hills Of Dakota, stone as white as the
milk the hired man used to give us to
drink in the dawn of a happy June
morning, stone as red as the heart of
the first bloodroot that you dug in the
spring when the world was all spring
to you and stone that is blue with a
blue that all the painters who have
eve painted Venice have tried to get
for generations and have failed.
Frozen fountains are there, white
with the leaping foam of untold ages,
sculptured cats and horses and great
monsters to be dreamed about o.
nights and feared in dark corners in
the daytime, organs built by the
hands of giant gnomes for a Titan to
play wild hymns of praise upon, a
kitchen for the cooking of weird dishes
never thought Of up here in the sun
shine, all manner and all kinds of
rooms, ninety miles of them, down
there under the hoofs of the gallant
little range horses who pound the
grass into hay the year round, up there
In South Dakota.

PANTS N VESTS.
The Difference Them and
Trousers and Waistc0ats.

The Difference Between Them and
Trousers and Waistcoats.
Why do the trade journals ignore the
word pants" and what is the differ
ence between ''trowsers" and "trou-
sers' and between vest and waist
coat?" asks a correspondent Of the
Clothier and Furnisher.
Pants is an abbreviation of pan
falcons" a word foisted upon us by
the French, though possibly derived
from the italian ~''pantaleon," which,
according to the poet Byron, has an Ill
defined connection with the lion Of st.
Marks, In Venice. ''Trowsers'' is old
English modernized into trousers"
which is the proper spelling. west"
is an abbreviation Of "vestment." An
other poet, Oliver Wendell Holmes,
traces 1t to Londoners in his line which
says:
The dangerous waistcoat. called by cock
neys west"
Genteel usage declares pants" to be
vulgar, though it and "pantaloons' and
"vest' have their place In trade and 80
receive recognition. we END tine matter
with another quotation from Holmes:
The thing named pants In certain docu-
ments,
A word not made for gentlemen. but
gents"

Disgusting Reports of Aorarlan Die
orders In Poland.
St Petersburg, Nov. 14.-Disquiet.
ing reports of the progress of agrarian
disorders In Poland are received. The
military authorities are rushing troops
and machine guns into the affected
areas. Inhabitants Of Karsk and Tu.
gansk are organizing for the protection
of their respective towns. The village
Of Balanda, in the government OF
6aratoff, has been fired by peasants.
Private and reliable reports from
Warsaw say that ell the parties there
are joining in the nationalist move
ment. following the tactics of Finland
for q complete strike. SO far as their
attitude of passive resistance contin.
g the issue will be one of endurance.
The danger is that the Poles may pro
woke active measures which would
mean nothing short Of civil war.
1t would be extremely dificult under
the present conditions to attempt to
withdraw any troops from European
Russia. The number of troops in Pc
land. however, is supposed to be sufi.
cient to cope with the situation.

ICE FOR HEATING.
One of the Oddities of Our Modern
utilization

|
One of the Oddities of Our Modern
Civilization.
The use Of Ice for heating purposes
Is one Of the oddities of our modern
civilization. Often it happens that a
train carrying fruit from the south to
the northern market encounters a cold
spell while en- route. If the tempera-
ture goes below a certain point the per-
ishable merchandise will be ruined.
But such a misfortune may be prevent
ed by covering the fruit car with a
coat of ice, a thing easily accomplished
by turning a hose upon 1t and allowing
the water to freeze until the whole We
hicle is enveloped in a CLASSY and gilt
tering blanket.
1t may, indeed, be appropriately call
ed a blanket, inasmuch as it prevents
the radiation of heat from the interior
conductor the warmth is retained and
the fruit, or possibly it may be vegeta-
bles, goes on Its way unspoiled even
by zero weather.
Cars used for transporting oranges
and other fruit from California to the
east are often provided nowadays with
large cylindrical ''ice stoves" as they
might be called, at each end, which,
while useful in summer time for re-
f~rigeration, are filed with Ice during
a cold spell In winter. When the tenn
perature outside is at zero or below,
the ice, at 80 degrees f., is compare
lively warm, and thus the stoves de-
scribed act as heaters.

Flagship Sank.
Washington, June /. The official
Japenese report on the latest details

straits is made in a cablegram re-
ceived by the Japanese legation here

miral Rojestvensky and another ad-
miral. together with staff officers, were
taken prisoners on the sinking of Ro-
jestvensky's flagship Saturday night.
The total number of vessels lost to the
Russians, according to Admiral Togo,
now reaches twenty-five, and he adds
that although the full particulars are
not yet in none of the Japanese ships
were seriously injured, and the loss
to the first division of the Japanese
fleet was over 400.
