A Fairylar,d Milne.

To the mineralogist the Coppei Queen mine of Bisbee, Ariz., has been for many years a kind of fairyland, yielding rare treasure in copper and lime minerals, of much variety and marvellous beauty of specialization and coloring. A recently opened cavern or grotto, filled with stalactites and stalagmites of delicate green and blue kints, was brought to the notice of Dr. E. O. Hovey before destruction by the miners, and this made possible the transfer of the section of the forma- ton that is now set up among the wonders of the American Museum of Natural History in New York. The grotto thus preserved, in space II feet high and 10 feet square, is lined with some 50 boxes of carefully col lected and restored cave material, the outside being roughly built up of lime stone blocks. One stalagmite of the mine cave had been deposited to a height of nearly 14 feet by water drip. ping for an estimated period of 25,0O0 years.

NO EIGHT HOUR
 LAW IN TRENCHES
PRAISE FOR AMERICANS
Lieutenant Sharman. Canadian Officer Who Speaks at chautauqua, Is
 Brilliant Orator.

Lieutenant Sharman, Canadian off cer, who speaks at the ChautauQua, asked some pointed questions in his Liberty Loan addresses which he made just before starting on his Chau- tauqua tour.
 What would they do on the western front if strike occurred among the fighting men?
 What would they do if the ambu lance drivers struck?
 How fast would we progress under an eight-hour law?
 These are among the questions which the fighter leaves for his audi ences to answer for themselves. Recently Lieutenant Sharman spoke in Birmingham, Ala. and the Age Herald said:
 Lieutenant Sharman was greeted with vociferous applause as he arose. The gifted Canadian officer. who has /, returned from the battlefields after being wounded twice, has a vast store of war narratives that interested his audience immediately. He is an adept at telling stories of the life of a sol l dier at the front, in the trenches or 1 in the hospitals. He has wonderful personality and outbursts of applause were frequent during his address. | "The time has come when either
 war or civilization must cease. Today
 there are machine guns on our front
 for every machine gun on the German
 front, and those on the Allies side arc
 the best in the world. l "The spirit of comradeship has sprung up and improved so much that interest and cooperation extends throughout the ranks of all armies, for when a man has taken his dead
 comrades coat and slept in it, has
 eaten his ration after he has gone,
 and then piled the dead bodies of his
 comrades around him as a protection from bullets, there is bound to be a life lasts.
 "rhis North American continent produces such men as the Germans
 have never seen before. They are not aware of what they are up against And it remains for America to win
