FRENCH BUDGET PRUNED
Ministry Is Working to Pare Down Appropriations--Will Reduce De- ficit Appreciably.

Paris, Aug. ss.---Acting on the most explicit instructions from Pre- mier Herriott and Finance Minister Clementel, officials of tho ministry are using the pruning knife on the budget as 1t was never used before, says Le Journal. They are obliging all departments to hold down their appropriation drastically, and the public will be agreeably surprised at the result when the budget figures are published. The newspaper de- clares the deficit will be reduced to a much smaller figure than the B. 7b0,000,o0 francs estimated by the official reporter of the senate fi- nance commission.
 Financial circles in Paris, Le Jour- nal adds, are optimistic concerning the moral result of the London con- ference; they have great hopes that the exchange market will become steadier and thet there will be a general intensification of business.

UNDERSEA GROTTO
IN UNIQUE HOME
Californian Requisitions Fos-
siIs From Bad Lands of
South Dakota.
Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star,
SIOUX FALLS, s. Oak, October
l3-Fossils from the famous Bad
Land region of western South Dakota
ana minerals of all kinds from the
biack Hills will have a conspicuous
piace IN a subterranean grotto of
novel character which has been con-
structed under the briny waters OF
the Pacific Ocean on the shores of
Long Beach, Calf. The grotto was
constructed by Samuel A. Selover a
| wealthy Californian, who has been in
western South Dakota several days
gathering fossils and minerals for the
grotto.
Mr.. selover and his family plan to
entertain their friends amid sur
| roundings that cannot be matched in
novelty and splendor anywhere.
Hearing that the Black Hills and the
Bad Lands of South Dakota contained
many fossils and vari-colored quartz
that would aid in making his under
sea cavern more attractive, Selover
came to South Dakota with his wife
and son in quest of these things for
the adornment of his cavern.
Buys Carload OF FOSSILS.
While in the State he made ar
rangements for the shipment of
carload OF fossils from the Bad Lands
Long Beach to decorate his grotto.
He obtained large collection of
1ithia mica of different colors, which
shines and glistens under artificial
light. He purchased a quantity of
gold-bearing quartz.
Rose-quartz and mica schist is the
color scheme to be used, and minerals
carrying it out were obtained. Nine
tysix feet of petrified logs were ar
ranged for, to be cut up and used for
chairs and to decorate the fireplace
The titaiotheria, rhinoceroses,
three-toed horses, tapirs and other
animals that roamed the South Da-
kota Bad Lands more than 100000
years ago furnished Selover ton of
remains in the shape of fossils and
parts of skeletons with which TO dec
crate the cave. The collection ar
ranged for will take two months to
assemble.
Mr.. Selover decided upon the Black
Hills as the source of the decorations
ne sought after having toured many
parts of the world His attention to
this region was attracted by Prof. +.
'C. Lincoln of the South Dakota
School of Mines, who, with his wife,
passed part Of the Summer at Long
Beach and became acquainted with
Mr.. Selover.
Grotto Under Gardens.
Belmont Shore Place, private resi-
dence of the Selover family, is de-
scribed by Prof Lincoln rs a place
of unusual attractiveness. 1t is built
in part out over the ocean. Looking
out from the dining room, the eye
views magnificent sunken gardens,
beyond which extends the wide eX-
panse of blue water. Under the gar
dens and extending back under the
house itself is the grotto. Great dif-
ficulty was experienced in making
the concrete walls, which form the
sides of the grotto, waterproof, ana
it was necessary to make them many
feet in thickness before the water
could be kept out.
One part of the grotto is given
over to a billiard room and smoking
room, another to a grill. where meat
and game may be roasted and served.
Another is devoted to display pur-
poses, and in this room the fossiis
from the Bad Lands and minerals
from the Black Hills will have
place.
