A QUEER EXCAVATION.
The ear of Dionynius" ana Its Pc
culinr Usc.


81 culiar Usc.
Tho most remarkable artificial cav.
ern or excavation ever made was that
which has been recorded In history ms
the Ear OF Dionysius." This queer
excavation, which was adjoining tho
quarrics near Syracuse, Sicily, was
constructed by the slaves of the mon
arch by whose name 1t is known. In
reality 1t was IN exact model of II
gigantic human ear. 900 feet long by
80 high. and was so scientifically con.
structed that the Interior of the grotto
became The finest Whispering gallery"
the world has ever known. In a cave
adjoining this acoustic wonder the
prisoners OF the tyrlnt were kent,
and every word they uttered came
through IN oriiice to the "internul
ear" where Dionysius passed whole
days listening to the plots TINT were
being laid by the enemies Of his gov
ernment The prisoners were, of
course. chained In that portion of
the underground dungeon most ia
vorabic for reflection OF all sounds to
the secret chamber. by this admira-
bic system Of espionage Dionysius
managed TO thwart every conspiracy
against his government which rose
during his thIrty-nlne years reign.
The ear the prison dungeons and
even the staples of Iron In the floors
to which prisoners were chained may
still be seen. II Is said that the tyrant
put TO death the architect of the "ear"
and the slaves who excavated 1t in
order that its purpose might never be
known.

from the results of Saturday. the
prospects for this oyster season arc
decidedly dull. While it Is true tl:a;
owing to the inclcmency of the
weather since the season has opened,
The tongers have not had a good
chauce, yet it is generally thought
that the oysters will be very scarce
The comparative scarcity is some
what of a surprise. i'll as much as
the customary dcprcdations OH the
natural rock were prevented by the
vigilance of the strengthened state
navy. Old timers however, assert
that the lonS.continucd rains during
the summer has prevented the oys-
ters from striking.
The river Saturday morning. even
as early as daybreak, presented Il
strange picture, as far as the eye
could reach were boats, boats of all
kinds, sizes. and description, IN all

las ever been on the rocks before.
The market too is large. and the

to Sioux Falls under the name OF
Mrs. A. w. Kellogg, but It was soon
ascertained by the local newspaper
men that Mrs Kellogg and Mrs. Corey
were one and the same. She came

miciled ever since the domestic trou-
bles between herself and Mr.. Corey

is accompanied by two brindle bull
pups, who travel around the country
In a handsome and costly portable ken
mel, made Of black walnut.
