MYSTERY IN A CRATER.
An Arizona Puzzle That the 6eoIoqists
Cannot Solve.

An Arizona Puzzle That the oseIosists
Cannot Solve.
About forty miles from Flagstaff,
Ariz., in the midst of a great plain,
there is a saucer shaped hollow about
three-quarters of mile across and
600 feet deep. The rim Of this strange
crater rises between $50 and 200 feet
above the surrounding plain. Rocky
fragments are scattered for several
miles around the crater. Among these
rocks many fragments of meteoric
iron, some containing minute black
diamonds, have been found. The inner
walls show that the crust Of the earth
was broken when the crater was form
ed, yet no volcanic rocks exist there.
Biologists have offered several the
cries to account for this singular phe-
nomenon. One is that an immense
meteorite made the hole and that the
meteoric fragments just mentioned are
remnants of the falling star.
Another theory ascribes the origin Of
the crater to tremendous explosion
Of steam in the rocks beneath, and a
third combines the first two by sug-
costing that the blow Of a falling
meteor, striking the eartt's crust at 4
point where subterranean water had
accumulated in the neighborhood Of
heated rocks. was the cause of the ex.

Al invisible Wall That Comes and ossa
In 4 Mexican House.
Down In Mexico there are ghosts
which build walls.
In the ancient city Of Querendaro
stands a big one story house Of great
age which, at the time that General
Diaz first became president, was o.
fupied by one Of his adherents, fine
'old fighter named Colonel Marion.
When he died the place was bought
by a lawyer named Valdemars, who
pulled the whole inside Of the house
to pieces and put in electric bells and

\ Curious noises were heard. pictures
fell and various queer happenings gave
rise to much talk. but the climax came
when a servant. sent into the dining
room for a glass Of water. came back
with a scared face and reported that
some one had built a wall all across
the room.
The others rushed in. There was
nothing to be seen: but. sure enough.

HEARD A BIG C0MM0T|0M.

Two Boys Who Stumbled Upon Ono Of
the Great Scenes In History.
Ed Howe tells the following story in
the American Magazine:
so little that is really exciting or
worth while has happened in my life
that am greatly interested in Jim and
Dan Ayers. who run Il restaurant in the
town where | live. Something really
happened to them once upon time,
and when go to their restaurant ell
joy hearing them tell about it.
"Whcn thcy were boys they lived on
farm in Virginia. have heard them
say their postoffice was Sudley Springs.
One Sunday morning their father start
ed them to Sunday school. and. after
they had loitered along the way a mile
or two. Jim Ayers remarked commo-
ton over beyond what they called the
Big Woods.
"What's that" Jim asked, stopping.
ut was getting late by this time, and
Dan replied:
81 don't know. but we'd better hur-
~ up and get to Sunday school or we'll
get whipping
'Then they hurried on, but the COM
motion over beyond the Big Woods
broke out again family. but it was very
unusual, and Jim stopped and listened.
He had never heard anything like 1t be-
fore. although he was big boy twelve
years old. and. after listening awhile.
he said:
"'I'm going over there
"'Better not Dan said. You know
father whips hard
"But the strange commotion contin-
ued. so Jim said he was going, whip
ping or no whipping. Dan followed.
but kept saying they would catch it
when they returned home.
"They walked and walked and walk
ed. All the time the commotion over
beyond the Big Woods became more
pronounced. but they couldn't tell what
It was. They forded streams and were
chased by strange dogs. but kept on
from 10 o'clock in the morning until
o'clock in the afternoon. They had
nothing to eat. and they didn't know
that they could ever find their way
back. because they were in a country
strange to them. But they kept on.
and little after o'clock, as reward
for their perseverance. they walked
into the battle of Bull Run. never
before heard Of boys going anywhere
and finding anything rs great as they
expected"

SHAVING the Bridegroom.

The shaving>of the bridegroom on bis
wedding day is a Bulgarian custom
which, handed down from pre'Chris-
tian days. is still observed with due
Formally, especially in country dis
tricts. While the barber is at his task
a dancing crowd Of young folks sur
rounds him and the bridegroom. As
the latter's hair is cut the snippings
are carefully collected by some of the
girls for preservation in one Of the
brides chests. The barber, when his
work Is done. receives a small white
linen cloth as present and also a
tIining sum Of money from each per-
son there. Then the bridegroom kisses
the hands Of the girls, washes his face
and dons his wedding dress, which
must first be carefully weighed three
times hy one Of the boys.

Even Though They tad to Go to Jail 70
Secure Il.
That they had some rather advanced
ideas as to the means of getting out
the vote in New England a century
ago IL shown by IN extract from DR..
Banks History of Marthas Vineyard"
The voting. which occurred in 1907.
was on the question Of the removal Of
the county seat.
Extraordinary means were taken to
get out full vote in Edgartown. The
sailing of ships was delayed for weeks
so that their crews might vote. and on
the day Of the town meeting 1t was
found that the contest between the
two factions was to be close.
Some one suggested that there were
several voters who. unfortunately de-
prived of their liberty. were anguish
ing in the town Jail. and II the jailer
would kindly allow them to step
across the street and vote it would
consume but few moments Of the
time the prisoners owed to the coun-
ty. The jailer did not feel that he had
the right to allow a general jail de-
livery even for such a worthy object.
although it might save Edgartown.
1t was then proposed that the ballot
box he carried over to the gentlemen
who were incarcerated. The point
was then raised that all ballots must
Ike cast in open meeting and In the
presence Of the election officials. New.
ertheless nstute minds found way
out of this awkward dilemma. A mo-
ton was made and carried that the
meeting adjourn to the Jail: There the
ballot box was carried to the door Of
each prisoners cell. and the imprison.
ed voters reached through the bars
and deposited their ballots.

The Horse,

The reins may guide the horse. the
bit may inspire him by its careful ma.
nipulation and the whip may urge him
forward to greater ambition. but the
human voice is far more potent than
all these agencies. Its assuring tones
will more quickly dispel his fright. its
sharp. clear. electric commands will
more thoroughly arouse bis ambition
and its gentle kindly praises will more
completely encourage the intelligent
road horse than the united force Of the
bit and reins and the lash. No animal
In domestic use more readily responds
to the power Of kindness than the road

STREET CAR EXTENSION
RUMOR DISCOUNTED.

thority it would be too expensive to
compete with the regular railroads
in the carrying of freight, and one
Of the officials ventured to say an
extension of the line to Duluth would
throw the new road into bankruptcy
in two years. However, there is
some foundation for the rumors that
the new line will be extended to
