According to tradition this cave, said
to contain 100.0OO000000 pounds of

Spanish missionaries and soldiers,
working their way northward from the
outpost of San Antonio, heard Of the

honey cave exists, and is high up on
the hillside. Residents near there,
however, will not venture an opinion
as to the amount of honey stored
away in the cavern receSses or as to
the age Of the cave. But they say
positively no one has ever been able
to reach the honey.
At one time young men living near
the "mine" organized to get the honey.
The leader, armed with blast of ex-

the cliff and down to the cave en-

be distilled. would be worth approx

good compilations fade. Not only
that, but you feel tired and exhausted

Paris.-A plot by French commuii-

against all American officials In
France in the event of the execution
of Sacco and Vanzetti, convicted In
the United States of murder, was re-
vCaled when it became known that
threats had been made to blow up the
offices of the American reparauons
commission and the passport bureau.
Threatening letters warning of
reprsals in the event of the death OF
the two men were also received by the
American consul general, \. NJ. Thack-
ara, and the American consuls at Mer-
seilles. Bordeaux and Lyons. AS n re-

the consulate in the Rue des Hallens.
The police in Bordeaux, Lyons ana

Letters to the passport and repara-

letter received by Mr.. Thackara was
signed by the communist organization
in IA small town near Lille. 1t is said
retuliatory measures would be taken
against American citizens In France IL
the men were executed.
No arrests had been announced by
the French police in connection with
the. explosion of bomb in Ambassa-

they have abandoned the theory of Il

the bomb was the act of an individual

II is located in the workmen's quarter.
| Ambassador Herrick received forty
six more letters of protest, including
one threatening lives of American off,
cals in France.
The Americans do not accept the
theory of the police; they believe a
widespread plot exists to do serious
harm to Americans. The latest let

Cheap and unbranded tubes handi-
cap any casing. The best is AT the

pure rubber and has strength of

means that If the tube stock were
built up to a square test piece one
inch thick and one inca wide, II would
be strong enough to lift from 1000

have this strength and are highly com

On an average it is possible to build

Valve Cap Should Be Tight.
1t is well to remember that the cap

may be retained without a rapid de-
crease by screwing the cap on tightly.
Its function is to assist the valve, and
Its use is imperative. The washer is
likewise furnished for purpose and
