w. S. Mayberry of Milton, who is
now principal of the public school at
Antelope, Wasco county, expects to
visit the caves of Crook county, Ore
gon, this summer, on an exploring
trip. Mr.. Mayberry spent two years
in that portion of the state some years
ago, and while there visited the lava
beds and caves on the Des Chutes
river and will return to more fully
examine this wonderful region which
has been explored but specifically.
At places in the lava formation on
the Des Chutes. holes are found in
the surface of the ground which lead
to subterranean caverns of unknown
depth and in many places water can
be heard running underneath the
floors of the cavernS on a still lower
chamber The caves vary in height
and width. In some places it is nee
essary to crawl through the small
opening between the dark chambers,
and in other places the caves widen
out into spacious rooms, filled to
overflowing with bats and reptiles.
1t is said that one of these under
ground chambers has been explored
for a distance of over a mile with no
evidence of termination of its Won
derful suites of subterranean rooms.
| The formation is lava and the caves
open into side chambers and smaller
rooms innumerable. At places OPEN
/ ings are found reaching out 20 the
surface at varying depths and the en-
! tire country is underlaid with a sys-
tenn of these lava caves.
The principal opening by which the
caves are entered is at a place on the
| Des Ohutes river. where a round hole
! has been formed in the surface of the
ground. by section of the earth's
crust about 80 feet in diameter sink
ing to a depth of 80 feet forming a
circular hole 80 feet across and 80
feet deep, from which the cave opens
and by which exploring parties enter.
Mr.. Mayberry will take compan-
| ion with him and make a complete
exploration of the caves this spring
if possible. 1t is thought that Won

erns may be discovered adding a new

tack the vital organs, causing catarrh OF
the bladder, or the kidneys themselves
break down and waste away cell by cell.
Bladder troubles almost always result
from arrangement of the Kidneys and
a cure is obtained quickest by proper
treatment of the kidneys. If you are feel
ing badly you can make no mistake by
taking Dr. Kilmers Swamp-Koot, the
great kidney, liver and bladder remedy.

scalding pain in passing it, and over
comes that unpleasant necessity of being

1t stands the highest for its wonderful
cures of the most distressing cases.

OsTEOPATHY.

What do you do, just rub?"
How can you cure this by rub
Dingf" These and like questions
clearly reveal the ignorance of the
quizzer of osteopathy and the prin-
ciples underlying 1t. Deplorable II ia
that this ignorance or wilful deception
is often displayed by the medical
doctors and promulgated In the med
ical journals.
Succienctly told, osteopathy is push
ing slightly displaced bones to posi-
ton with thumb, fingers, hand or
knee, loosening and strengthening stiff
and curved spines and ribs, loosening
contracted muscles and ligaments
and not rubbing, kneading, pattlng,
pulling, as misguided people often be-
lieve.
Its growth is testimony of its scien-
tific basis and successful practice.
Eleven years old, four thousand prac-
titloners, fifteen hundred students,
ten colleges, practitioners in every
state, recognized by laws in twenty
seven states (beaten in Oregon
through opposition of medical doc
tors in ,senate), the accepted system
of treatment for all ailments wher-
ever understood, and often called to
save when medicine has given up,
numbering with Its adherents, several
United States senators, and represen-
tatives, governors, Mark Twain, Ella
Wheeler Wilcox and other notables.

The Way the stun Is Mined and Pre-

The largest South American asphalt
lake, in Venezuela, consists Of dark
brownish deposit of semihuid and semi
solid substance surrounded by banks
from three to six feet high. In the cen
ter of this lake is continual election
of hot fluid asphalt, accompanied by
large bubbles of gas.
The dark skinned workmen excavate
1t in pieces weighing in the neighbor-
hood of twenty-five pounds, sections
forty feet in area and about four feet
deep being worked at one time. As
quickly as freed from its surroundings
It is placed in large tubs, resting upon
small fat topped tram cars operated
upon O narrow gauge road. The entire
surface Is constantly moving thus ne
cessitating continual relaying Of the
tracks.
The freshly excavated asphalt Is con
veyed to the shore, where the tubs are
lifted by hydraulic power to an aerial
tramway, by which it is conveyed to
the large wharf situated on the Qua
nero river, about FIVE miles distant
from the lake. Here 1t is weighed and
dumped into vessels which convey it to
the foreign lands.
Upon its arrival at factory 1t is
heated until the water is expelled and
the earthly material cast to the bottom
of the large watts, and it is poured
through sieve into barrels, where ii
solidifes. 1t Is then ready for com

THE BEGGAR TRUST.
A Scheme That For a Time Was n
Success In New York.

A Scheme That For Time Was n
Success In New York.
Several years ago one legged youth
named Kempton, who had left COM
Portable home to engage deliberately in
begging, conceived the idea of organiz-
ing community of interest among
panhandlers in the Park row district, in
spots throughout the city and selected
man to beg in each. These men were
always particularly well adapted to
their posts-a blink (blind man here
crust thrOwer there, m8imed youth
somewhere else. In order that the beg
gars might not be mOlested by the pO-
lice lookout was appointed for each,
and in order that the syndicate's inter
ests might be conserved Kempton en-
ployed roundSmen to observe how
faithfully the beggars attended to bust
ness and to collect hourly the earnings
of each In case of arrest each men,
ber of the band was assured of legal
representation, to be paid for out of
the earnings of the pool.
The scheme thrived for many months
and at one time there were thirty men
in the combination, which became a
close corporation of profit and power.
There is no knowing to what extent
1t might have expanded nor how infu-
entail it might have become at last had
not the nature Of the organization
given 1t undue prominence and caused
it to fall directly under the ban Of the
mendIcant squad. One by one the mem
bers were captured and sent to the is
land, and in the end the gang was
broken up.-Theodore Waters in Every
body's Magazine.

Votes DO Count.

One of the most remarkable re-
suits of a primary for the nomina-
tion Of a public official is reported
from Prosperity. There were two
candidates for mayor. In the first
primary an even hundred votes
were cast and each of the candi-
dates received fifty of them. A
new primary was ordered to settle
the issue at which ninety-eight vote
were cast, these being divided equa-
lily, also. 1t has become necessary
to hold a third primary. Some
times u citizen is hcaad to say that
he won't bother to vote, rs his one
ballot will make no difference in
the result. The even division in
Prosperity shows tho fallacy Of
such reasoning. A single vote one
way or the other would have named
the mayor for that prosperous town
