led west, but had only gone a short
way when they came to place where
the ceiling had caved in and they had
to go back. Failing in that one they
went into the south fork. This fork
was three hundred feet long, making
one thousand feet they had come
straight from the mouth of the cave.
In the end of this branch they found
a large pile of ashes about twelve feet
across, and setting around these
ashes were one hundred and sixty-five
big earthen jars. Some had water in
them which had dripped in from the
roof of the cave.
In the dirt under where these bowls
were sitting they found hundreds of
Indian arrow heads, some three inches
long. These were the guns Uncle
John had seen in his dream under the
dishes. They also found beads SINH
lar to those worn by the Indians now.
In looking further Bill dug up a small
dog that had been carved from solid
rock. This dog was about inches
long and five high His eyes, teeth,
tail and all were in good condition,
but he had one foot missing. He also
dug up small jar filled with tur-
quoise beads and a jar that would
hold pint, was filled with shell ear
rings. The painting and writing on
this pottery resembled the Zuni style
of work. Mr.. Hubbell, to whom this
stuff was sold, said that he would give
$500 to any Indian that would show
him any Indian pottery made in these
days with such wonderful paintings
on it.
Later they entered the west fork of
the cave which was 500 feet long or
1900 feet from the mouth
This is the story of the Harris cave
as was given to me by William Har-
ris. People who are interested in
caves find it well worth their time to
visit this one Mr.. Harris is ready at
any time to lead a party through the
cave. The cave only having been
looked into with a pitch torch-peo-
pie taking gas lanterns might find a
gold mine or other hidden treasure.

!, KANSAS CITY WEEKLY
, MARKET REPORT
: *@+44+**++++*%@4s !

Kansas City, Nov 9.-An active
demand prevailed in all divisions of
the live stock market today. Cattle
were strong to 35 cents higher, hogs
up 10 to 25 cents and sheep and lambs
up Is to 25 cents. Receipts were light
for this season of the year, the heavy
storm and severe cold weather late
last week being the principal factor in
the decrease. Grass fat cattle have
been marketed closely, and it is too
early for the general movement of
short fed classes. Demand for hogs
is urgent and well above current re-
ceipts. Hardly enough sheep are COM
ing to meet the most urgent demand.
Beef Cattle
Today's receipts Of cattle were the
smallest Of any Monday since late
June and the per cent of the offerings
suitable for killing purposes was un-
usually small. Steers that showed
enough flesh for killing purposes
ruleds25 to 35 cents higher than last
weeks close. Nothing very good was
offered, and killers are in need of
larger supplies of hard fat steers. The
best steers here sold at $3.50 to $10.-
so. They had been fed go to 90 days
Others that showed varied amounts of
feed brought $8.25 up, and grass fat
steers, $3.50 to $7.50S Cows and heifers
were Is to 25 cents higher than last
weeks close. Short fed cows at Sc.
SO to 81 and heifers at $725 to $3.50
are 50 cents higher than week ago

In the year 1882 John Harris, bet
ter known as "Uncle JOHN" settled
with his family on Mineral Creek
some % miles southeast of st. Johns.
Uncle John bought shingle mill and
made shingles for the early settlers in
and around st. Johns, Concho and
Snowflake. At that time Uncle John
had quite large family, mostly boys.
One evening two of his boys, VIII and
Tom, set out to hunt the milch cows.
Their pursuit took them by Harris
lake and as boys of Is and Is will
do, they got to backing each other out
as to who dared wade out in the lake
the farthest with his clothes on
The result was they got wet and as
they started in their journey the wind
commenced to blow and they got cold.
After riding about one and one-half
miles north Of the lake they came to
quite large sink hole in the ground.
They dismounted and got inside of
the hole to get shelter from the wind.
At this time Will suggested that if
they would turn their pants inside out
they would dry quicker. This they did.
But upon leaving the sink they no
ticed a small hole leading into the
ground.
Thinking it might be the hole of
some wild animal, they Immediately,
after arriving home, told their father
terested in what they had told him,
asking them to give him a thorough
description of the hole. After which
he told that he had dreamed he found
cave, the mouth of which was exact
ly like the boys had told him about.
He also said that inside the cave he
would find all kinds of dishes and un-
der the dishes would be guns. So
early the next morning they started
out to investigate the cave. They
took with them several armfuls of
pitch pine torches. After reaching
the cave Uncle John lighted a torch
and entered the cave.
The Doys followed close behind
with the shingles. When they were
inside the cave and started their in
vestigation they would drop a shin
gle every few steps so as to be able
to find their way out. On entering
the cave they had to crawl about 80
feet on their hands and knees, after
which it opened up to about 20 feet.
After entering the cave they proceed
ed to investigate. The cave was 20
feet wide and seven hundred feet long
and at the end there were two forks,
one leading west and the other lead
ing south. In the first part of the
cave they found five small Indian
jugs, similar in shape to a bowl, and
would hold about quart. Two of
these bowls were full of water, the
other three seed of some kind in them.
The bowls with water in were hard
but the ones with seeds in we're soft
and rotten, but when they were car
ried out in the air they soon became
hard.
The walls of the first cave looked
as if they had been painted at some
time. After going over the first
cave they started to the branch that

bootlegging of labor across the Mexican Dor,

only by the transportation of ~one-hundred-

and other industrial kings have been seeking
to keep a good per cent of American labor,
both black and white, idle, it can be seen that
the full dinner pail of the American Negro

swings back and forth between necessity and
