The most unique, best attended and most thoroughly pleasurable social of the season so far was the "geography" party at Fraternity hall last evening, given by the ladies of St. Paul's Guild. The party furnished ample scope for the exercise of the wits, and there were both some good representations and some good guessers present.. Each person were something on their person sugges tive of some locality. The following were the representations and explana tions : Dr. Eshelman, and Nona Rucb, "Eu rope," U made of rope. Dr. Snedaker, "Italy," design of boot on card. Vic Sampson and Mr. Sutcliffe, "Lo well," L worn low. - H.

These cards were very dainty and . were the handiwork of Mrs. Eshelman, Misses Lang. Williams and Story. A" cover of fancy cardboard enclosed two or three email sheets of- calendered paper, the whole neatly tied with- baby ribbon with pencil attached. The covers were variously hand-painted in water colors, or sketched in crayon, no two alike, and make pretty and artistic souvenirs of the evening. The higheBt number of correct guesses - were found on Miss Rose Michell'a card, and she was award ed first prize, a globe. Conundrums were given to sides chosen, and nearly all of the good ones were guessed. After the trial of the wits, the entertainment was varied by an excellent supper down stairs, and the party adjourned to Kellar's hall to re coup their shattered nerves with coffee, cake and sandwiches. The party was decidedly a grand success. . SISKIYOU CAVE- An Oregon Wonder that Surpasses Mammoth Cave In Kentucky. There are few people in the United States who have not heard of Mammoth cave in Kentucky, bat there are very many who have never heard of the greater sub-mountain chamber recently discovered in JoBephino county, Oregon. Josephine is a southern county in the state bordering on California, and while the mouth of this great cave is in Ore gon, it is not so certain but the inner most recesses are in California. . It ex tends into the Siskiyou range of mount ains, a rugged dividing line between Oregon and California. While no one knows what is under the hill, yet explorations have- been made far enough . to disclose the fact that Mammoth cave, in Kentucky, is "by far its inferior in every way. ' ' Captain Smith, its proprietor, a few weeks ago, gave this statement of the progress made in explorations: "We have 00 chambers iu sight and and an incalcaable number to find be fore we reacjh the end of the cave. The chambers lie in' nine different strata granite, marble, limestone, redstone and others and almost every one of the natural apartments contain a marvel of some kind aside from its stalactites and stalagmites. In the 'Lord's supper chamber' there is an almost fac-simile in the limestone of the famous painting. 'The fairy chamber' is in a strata of California diamonds. " 'Tornado cham ber' is visited by a wind storm every twenty-four hours. In the 'Rain cham ber' there is a' perpetual drizzle, the 'Steam chamber' is constantly filled with steam from an undiscovered source. A coffin resting on stalagmites is the feature of the 'Death chamber,' and the 'Bridal chamber' is ornamented with a solid stone four-post bedstead. Then there is 'Sullivan's chamber,' so called because there is a mighty ' arm and fist pendant from the ceiling, and others too numerous to mention, much less to describe." " - Worked Hair a Day. The people of Manitou were enter tained the other day, says a corre spondent of the Denver Republican, by the spectacle of a man carrying' a stone around a triangnlar track, letting" it drop and shouldering' it again at very turn. The performer was a man who has a reputation for a disinclina tion to labor, and the incident was the outcome of a wail ho was "making' about the hard times and his inability to get work. A citizen told him he would not work if he got a chance, and offered him fifty cents an hour as long- as lie would carry the stone. To the surprise of all he accepted the offer and held out for five hours. A large crowd gathered to watch the perform ance.
