should receive the Word with, fa i th , lest it shonld not profit us (Deb. 4:2). As we hear, we should prayer fu l ly look to God to open our eyes to see it clearly (Ps. 119: 18). (b) In singing, we should realize t h e meaning of the words we sing, and make them t h e expression of our own hearts. (c) In prayer , the bead should be bowed and the eyes closed. Wi th our minds we should fol low and join in the words of him who leads in prayer.

PRACTICAL SUGGESTIONS.

1. The value anil need of social worship.

2. Those who lonp most a f t e r God re-ceive the most from ll im.

?• The church should be our rel igious home, wi th a home welcome for all especially for the children.

4. Those who dwell in God's house have the most for which to praise llim.

5. T h e hea r t s of His people a r e God's highways through which Ilis blessings flow to the world.

fi. God, for Ilis people, t rans forms the valleys of weeping in to the l iving wa-ters of joy and blessing.

Tho cave recent ly discovered cont inues , to bo t h e center of a t t rac t ion to all In-terested In the wonderful and phenom-enal f reaks of na ture , says tho White Sulphur Springs Husbandman. Tho cave Is located In the dry range, twenty-five miles no r thwes t f rom town, In the vicinity of tho Lcn Lewis and John Moore ranches.

The mouth of tho cavo Is f rom t w o to three feet wide and six feet long, lo-cated on tho southeas t side near the top of a pocket In tho mounta in . The cave Is almost the shape of a flask, thir ty-four foot deep, and tho bot tom l)elng sixty-two fee t long and th i r ty fee t wide. We speak of t h e bot tom of the cave but mean the top of the debris and vast amount of bones of animals which Alls the space of w h a t may bo called tho bottom.

Bo It known t h a t t he cave, ins tead of being adorned wi th crystals and stalac-ti te and s ta lagmite , la a regular churnel house, and evident ly has been a death t r ap for ages to t h e unsuspecting beasts of plain aud forest . The opening of the cove Is peculiarly .constructed for the purpose of relentlessly swal lowing any living t h ing t h a t ventured near Its b r ink . The mouth of this destroyer of the l iving Is composed of llmestoclc rock somewha t on an Incline, tho de-pression be ing a t Its widest p a r t

Along the uppe r side Is an old animal trail . I t Is easy to see how tho buffa lo or elk pass ing th i s way when the trai l was slippery wi th Ice or snow would easily lose the i r foothold and be pre-cipi tated In to the cave. I t is also a plausible theory to believe t h a t a t t imes dur ing the w in t e r the mouth of the cave Is ent i re ly covered with snow, so t ha t the unsuspect ing animal passing over the famil iar trai l would a t this p o i n t If diverging a f ew inches to t h e south, slide th rough the snow and bo swal-lowed alive.

Many animals , doubtless, were killed by being suspended by the head and fore pa r t of t he body, as tho buffalo, or by tho ant lers , a s the elk. while many were evidently directly mangled and killed by t h e fall . But the re are also evidences t h a t some landed a t the bot-tom of the pi t wi th sufficient powers re-ma in ing to d r a g their bodies to remote c o m e r s of the cave and the re perisli f r o m wounds and s tarvat ion. Some of the la rges t skul l s and skeletons of buf-fa lo were thus found.

W o could not determine t h e depth cf t he bones in the bottom of t h e cave, as we did not have t h e "necessary tools for m a k i n g such explorat ion.but we counted in s igh t twenty-n ine buffa lo sltulls, sev-eral elk. bear , wolf,etc. I have brought wi th mo a specimen skull of t he buffalo, bea r and wolf, which is on exhibit ion at t he office of the Husbandman. I t is probable t h a t for centur ies t h i s wonder-fu l cave has been per forming the ghast-ly office of swal lowing those living creatures.

Old hunte rs , who have gathered their in format ion f rom the Indians, say t ha t i t is a t least half a century since the buf fa lo w a s lost seen upon the Dry range. I t would not be surpr is ing t ha t w h e n f u r t h e r explorat ions a re niade hu-m a n bones should be found. For should the lonely hun te r , prospector, or Indian chance to break through when the cave w a s covered wi th snow he would be doomed to cer ta in death, for there are no visible means a t present whereby a m a n could extr ica te himself f rom tha t horr ib le p i t The discoverer has se-curely const ructed a ladder in to the cave whereby ladies and gent lemen can en te r wi th safety.

MOQUI INDIAN ALBINOS.

S u p p o s e d t o T a k e T h e i r C h a r a c t e r i s t i c s / r o m a n E x t i n c t Canniba l Tr ibe .

There a re several albinos among the Moqui t r ibe of Indians on the.Moqui reservat ion in Apache county , Arizona, says the San Francisco Chronicle. Some of these a lb inos are pure white , with regu la r Indian features—reddish yel-low hair and bluo eyes. Others, again, have pink eyes, which a re constant ly t w i n k l i n g as if su f fe r ing f rom some nervous affect ion. There is one of the a lb ino girls, alxmt twelve or thir teen years old, a t t end ing the government school a t K e a m ' s canyon. She is one of t h e b r igh tes t scholars in the school. H e r p a r e n t s are pure Indian and unusu-ally d a r k colored. I saw ano the r albino among them, a man of abou t fo r ty or forty-five years of age, and small in s ta tu re . His hair was long and coarse and of a l igh t yellow, eyes a br ight bluo wi th a reddish gl int , and constant-ly moving. I unders tand the re a re sev-era l more of these people among the Moquis.

The la te P iu te princess, Saran Winne-mucca, m a k e s mention of these peculiar people in he r book. She speaks of the t r ad i t ion among her people t ha t a t r ibe once existed there hav ing yellow hair and pink eyes, who were cannibals, and were driven by the Piutes and o ther t r ibes sou thward , presumably to New Mexico or Arizona. They were driven in to the mounta ins and there massa-cred, only a very few be ing known to have escaped

T r a p - D o o r s U n d e r t h e S e a t s .

Some ingenious and some idiotic de-vices to insure the sa fe ty of an audi-ence in case of fire havo been lately projected. One is to have a trap-door a r r anged under each seat in t h e thea-ter, so t h a t by simply pressing a but ton the occupant is gent ly lowered into a comfor tab le and fire-proof vaul t below t h e floor, and where, presumably, the f r igh tened and ha l f - f a in t ing person is t rea ted to a drink and a schweizer sandwich, says the Stage. This idea comes f rom Paris, and is open to one ob-jection. W h a t are t h e poor gallery people going to do? T h e y would be ap t to b r eak their necks if put th rough a hole in t h e floor, and i t would prove r a t h e r an expensive a r rangement to provide everybody w h o bough t a bal-cony or a gallery sea t w i th a special ele-vator.

The, manager of the L a g u n a do Tache Rancho says tho carp which were in-troduced In the Kings river a few years ago have grown so p len t i fu l t ha t thoy are th inn ing ou t the ducks and almost all o ther wa t e r fowl except tho wild geeso, says tho San Francisco Exam-iner.

"They pervade tho river in largo num-bers," said ho, " and are very thick In the i r r iga t ing ditches. They seem to , eat the grass. They devour the various 1 kinds of small animal life, and, though ! the ducks aud o ther fowl dive down • deep, they can flnd.little to e a t

"Shoals of them are to be found In > the wate r ditches.. They got out In the ' grass where there" Is a l i t t le water , and you can scoop them in. Some of them i are very large. Plenty can be seen j from a foot to t w o foot long.

"They ea t tho natura l food of tho j duck, widgeon and snipe, and. as a con-sequence. all those are ge t t ing scarce.
