Members Resign When Majority for
Budget Seems Doubtful.

AMSTERDAM, Feb. S.-Dr. Won
Seydler, the Austrian premier, has
rendered the resignation of his entire
cabinet, according to a despatch
from Vienna. The resignation, it is
understood in parliamentary circles

Polish deputies against special de-
bates and the provisional budget.
The opposition of the deputies
makes a majority for the budget
doubtful.

Another industry that will employ
at initiation from 80 to rs men, and
within five years from 500 to 500,
is likely to be obtained for Marsh
field if plans now under way develop
as expected The plant is a briquet-
ting and refining industry to handle
the slack coal which is wasted at
the various mines tributary to this
district. According to the Marshfield
Record, the men fathering the project
are H. P. Scheel and William Near
thur of Tenino, Wash, who were re-
Gently in Marshfield, where they went
through the mines and learned the
amount of material they could de-
pend upon with which to operate the
proposed plant, and it was found to
be sufficient for refinery of 15O
tons capacity The briquettes would
leave about so per cent of the coal
to be manufactured into by-products
such as are made in Germany. Mr..
Macarthur has patents for which he
has been offered $15O,OOO, /but de-
sires to operate under the patents
instead of selling. A bonus Of $751;
GOO will be asked of Marshfield if the
plant is installed

loo Many Servants in Britain.

Duncan Miller asked the minister of
national service, says the London
Times, whether his attention has been
called to the number of advertisements
for servants in households of one, two
or three persons, where seven to ten
indoor servants are already kept, and
whether he proposes to limit the num-
Der of indoor servants employed in
each household. The minister of ma
tional service replied that he had al
ready pointed out how essential it is
in the national interest, that no per
son should employ more servants than
are absolutely necessary. The min
lister trusts that the awakened con.
sciences of those who have in this
respect failed to appreciate their duty
will provide an immediate and sufii-
cient remedy. If not, he will tell his
plan in the general statement on man

New Ice Caves Are
Found In Klamath

klamath Falls, Jan. ga num-
ber of new ice caves and strange ge-
illogical formations have been re-
ported discovered in the Lava Bed
district 45 miles southeast Of this
city, recently, by John D. Howard,
George Howell and John Cox, who
have spent some time investigating
the natural wonders of that region.
Twenty-eight caves have been Wis
tied in all, and the men are con-
vinced that many more are still to
be found, Many curious natural
bridge formations have also been dis
covered, which are capable Of hold
ing tremendous weight.
Writings by the ancient Indians or
the prehistoric races have been
found. The characters are believed
to be of an Oriental nature, and are
not understood by any of the Indians
now residing in this section. Some
OF the pictures found show ships
with both sails and oars.
Mr.. Howard, who has spent much
time investigating the different cave
regions of the United States, is
greatly impressed with what has
been discovered. He thinks that the
roads in that locality should be i'm
proved so that the public would visit
this district in larger numbers.
