Charles H. Mann is noted for his

Cave Of Bones.

An extraordinary bone cave" may
be seen in the island of 1eneriffe
II is situated near the summit of a
lofty sea cliff near Orotava, close to
the small plain OF lie Paz, where
peace was finally made between
the conquering Spaniards and the
Guapches. the original inhabitants Of
the island
Here the Guanches made their last
stand. and the cave formed n shelter
for the small remnant left of tho
tribesmen after the Spanish had fin
ished with them. In former times
the place had evidently been a burial
ground of the Guanches, and when
first discovered mummies were found
in It; now, however. only large pile
of bones remains. Access Is obtained
by descending a rope through hole
dug in the roof, but the original oc-
cupants must have had difficult and
dangerous scramble down the face
Of the almost perpendicular cliff to
the natural entrance.

ONE OF NATURES MARvELS
Transformation Of Reptiles from Wa.
ter Dweliers to the AmphibIan
Stage Is Striking One.

Every one is familiar with the an
nual transformation of tadpoles into
frogs. Little fshlike creatures, with
fringed gills protruding from the sides
of the neck and swimming tail, sud
denly change into land animals, differ
ent in shape and color, and, breathing
air by means Of their lungs.
Nevis and salamanders go through
a similar change which, however, is a
little less striking because the tail,
although it loses it's swimming web,
persists in the adult condition. The
Mexican axolotl, of which there are
always a number of examples in the
reptile house at the London Zoologi-
cal Gardens. is a very large newt,
black in color. with pair of long
fringed siNs at each side and swim
ming tail the web of which runs
along the back toward the head. 1t
lives entirely in water, and breeds
freely in a condition which represents
the larval stage of common nevis.
: This axolotl was for a long time
believed to represent type of am
+ phibian which had not yet acquired
the adult stage. More than SO years
ago, at the Jardin des Plantes, in
Paris, it was reported that some of
the axolotls had become transferred
into a well-known Mexican salaman-
der known as Amblystoma, and which
was a typical land animal, without
gills, with a lizard-like tail and ter.
restrial habit. The evidence was def
mite.

About four years ago the State
Board of Health made ruling prohib-
ting the use of the common drinking
cup on trains, in schools and other pub
lie places. AS result the open water
pail which used to be universal has
very nearly disappeared. In its place
is found covered tank or jar and the
pupils have their own cups instead of
the dipper. This change has been an
object lesson for the homes, for which
the abolition OF the drinking cup has
come more general understanding of
the danger of transmission of disease.
In order that there might be less
difficulty in enforcing these regulations
the following law Chapter ljS) has
been enacted by the legislature now in
session.
at shall be unlawful for any person,
firm or corporation to furnish, or to

ITEMS FROM THE PILOT FILES.
FIFTY YEARS AGO.

The ORDER REVOKED. The Press
Free.-We briefly announced in last
! weeks Pilot that Gen. Burnside had
ordered his troops to take forcible pos
session of the Chicago Times Office,
and suppress the publication of that
paper. The soldiers did so, which Gre
ated the most intense excitement in
Chicago. The publishers of the Times
appealed to the courts to redress their
wrongs, but before Judge Drummond
had time to give decision, which
would certainly have been against the
arbitrary act of Burnside) an order
came from President Lincoln revoking
the order-thus sustaining the Pilot in
its last weeks remarks when it de-
clared Burnside an ass. In the mean
time, and before this new order of the
President reached Chicago, twenty
thousand Freemen of that city met in
front OF the Times office, prepared to
defend it until the decision of Judge
Drummond should be delivered, and so
scared were the publishers of the Abo-
lition Tribune at this noble display in
favor of the Times, that its owners and
other prominent Republicans of Ctica-
90 telegraphed to the President, For
Gods sake to revoke the order of Burn
side', or the Tribune Office would be
destroyed.-The President acted wise
ly, for the men of Chicago "know their
rights, and knowing them dare main
TAIN" The time for arresting and inn
prisoning men without cause, and sup
pressing Democratic newspapers has
gone by. The Chicago Democracy
have demonstrated the fact, and the
result is that the Chicago Times is
now eagerly read at breakfast in sever
al residences in Manitowoc. In the
language of the Milwaukee News:
"God be praisedl The bold front as
sumed by the people of Chicago in de-
fense of their rights under the consti-
tuition have induced the President to
revoke the order of the ignoble Burn
side, and the press of Illinois is again
free.
Nov let the voices of the north 90
up with one accord for the removal Of
Burnside. He has disgraced his posi-
ton, outraged the people, and proved
himself an enemy of our country, its
liberties and its laws"

Writer'S Cramp.

Biological tests by scientists at the
London hospital show that writers
cramp' and other similar states of
apparent muscular paralysis are actu-
ally due, not to the tiring Of the mus
cles, but to brain fag. 1t appears that
the particular part Of the brain which
controls special combinations of mus
Gle action, such as the movements OF
writing or the working OF a telegraph
key, tend to become more quickly ex-
hausted In some individuals than 9th.

in which the brain Is actually unable

CITY COUNCIL NOTES.

The council met in regular session
Monday evening. All members were
present.
A request of the Crystal Theatre for
permission to build a structure over
the sidewalk was denied. They were
advised to go ahead and take their
own chances ori its removal.
A scheme to require street cohces-
sionaires to get permission from the
Elks and Eagles during the two COM
ing conventions failed to get through.
The matter was left to the discretion
of the mayor.
Clerk of Court Clark offered to de-
dicate portion of his lot, so by 100
feet, which protrudes into Marshall
street If the city Will build cement
curb along that part of the lot. The
fer was accepted.
Miss Harper, visiting nurse, was al
lowed $4,000 to complete her overdue
back salary.
The clerk was instructed to advertise
for combination motor hose and hook
and ladder wagon. Schroeder, Lip
pert and Smuggler voted "No'. The
proposition did not evoke the amount
of talk it usually does. Thoreson
vigorously championed motor appara-
tus as he always does. He claimed
both efficiency and economy for it.
Bigel wants contractor Bahr to put
gravel back on New York Avenue east
of Goth street before the city pays for
the sewer job there. The money was
held up. Rugowski said that Higgins
new side track there is partly respon-
sible.
Walter Bahr was awarded several
large sewer jobs, being the lowest
bidder.
The j. G. johnson Company was the
lowest bidder for furnishing cargo
OF crushed stone. They proposed sl0G
per yard on the dock.
The attorney .ep1. ued that costs will
be taxed against the city, officers and
aldermen in the Rahr sinking fund
case. After discussing an appeal the
matter was left to the discretion oI
the attorney. He also reported that
the state tax commission has decided
the terminal tax matters submitted by
the city and the North Western rail
road almost entirely in favor of the
city. The decision adds many hundreds
of dollars to the 1913 tax collection.

In a mill in the north Of England
an old Irishman and his mate were
set on to replace floor in little
shop which was used for by.product
of the business. They had just fin
ished the job, and 1t was getting dark.
when the old man bethought himself
that floor ought to be level.
OF he rushed to borrow spirit
level and soon returned, flushed and
excited, to see how his floor stood the
test.
He placed the level on the floor
and peered at 1t, but could not see
the bubble as 1t was too dark in the
shop. So. picking the level gently up
by both ends he carefully carried 1t
to the door and exclaimed joyfully to
his mate. rFair in the middle, lad:

TWENTY-FIVE YEARS AGO.

Why will people attend teachers ex-
aminations whose chances for securing
certificates are Ms good as the proba-
bility of bailing out the Atlantic ocean
with a spoon? And why will high
schools graduate pupils who know AS
much about arithmetic and grammar
as they do about Greek? At every ex-
animation pupils from country schools,
TOO young to be given certificates, meet
all the requirements, educationallt, of
the examination, while high school
graduates fail. And then some rela-
tive of the graduate descants upon the
difficult character Of the examination
as evidenced by the failure of those
who have high school diplomas.
