SAVED BY A NOTE.
The Slngalar Message Which
Saved a Train.
Brunswick Tmes.
''I was on the night run," said
the engineer, "aod my train was
about thirty minutes late. I said
to my fireman: 'Keep her hot: I
mean to go to meeting pjiot on
time.' During the next fifteen
minutes I was not long in passing
the mile posts, for my engine flew
along at the rate of fifty mi.es an
hour down a long grade as straight
as an arrow. Suddenly something
struck me in the face, making a
slight wouud. I slowed down.
'What's that near the furnace door?'
I asked the fireman, pointing to a
little bit of white paper lying just
to my lett. The fireman stooped,
picked up the paper, and banded it
to me. In the dim light of the
steam gnage I read, 'Look out at
the river brdge; there's a tie on the
track.' Sure enough, just at the
entrance to the bridge I found a tie
securely fastened across the track.
Who put it there? I don't know if
the author of that message will
make himself known to me he may
ask me any favor he pleases with
the assurance that it will be
granted. Where is the piece of
paper? My wife Molly has it in a
gilt frame banging over the parlor
mantelpiece. Whenever lament
on my run she stasis before it and
breathes a prayer for my saftty.
That piece of paper is my mascot."
FASHIONABLE SOCIETY.
A Bishop Describes the .Whirl of
the Upper Circles
Bishop F. D. Huntington in the
October Forum describes fashion
able society "as a something too
formal for an institution, tee Irreg
ular ior an organization, too vital
for a machine, too heartless for a
fraternity, too lawless for a school,
too det ent for a masquerade, with
too much lying for u buieau, and
too many passions for a pageant.
There aie the compct lions,
matches, risks, calculations of a
perilous aie, tiio inte c'iaug s of j
an imponderable, inuim-iia! co n-j
nicrc, musical voices ;;iiui m.:ar
moaious brests, spieful courtesies,
magnificent mecacesses. There
are bods ot peace, Hying arrows of
malice and revenge, bonds a ad
fragments of ;;:endshis, charming
veils over hiddea ho'iois, !agliter
rippling over dark depths of si'ent
agony. One has only io reflect a
moment how ccus ue 'ab'e a sect'o
of lWcs of man' raeo and move
woman these activities occupy,
what capacities they include, what
lorces they engage, the interplay
between life and life, the issues
aod deitioy of character, tise auuSj
responsibility, to comprehend that
societv,' tvea in th;s homed sease,
is a study for the wisest mi ads."

MALHEUR CAVE.
One of the Natural Wonders of
Eastern
Oregon.
RIVALS THE M
HOTB CAVE.
Ire ' ;sU it ;or a Fo " '."
Past Aget Fish Without Eyes
Its Loctfc:.
The following was written by G,
C. Drncau. a curiosity hunter who
recently visited Oregon. In time
bo doubt the fame ot this wonder
ful cave will spread and cause it to
be an object of much interest, as it
is on the projected line ot the Ore
gou Pacific railroad
llalbcar Cave is located on a
sage-b'usb plain about one mile
f .-em the head of the south fork of
tTje"Msntieur river: "
There is a small basin at its
mouth.
The cave is twenty feet wide and
six feet high at its entrance, and
has an incline downward for the
3rst 200 feet, and then turns to the
northeast and runs very nearly
stra:ght to the water, a distance of
one-half mile from its mouth. It
will average fifty feet wide and
.jrenty feet high and is very
uniform in it3 structure, the walls
running up about six feet n either
side, and 'then commence to arch
over, and certainly term the inest
arch in the whole family of caves
that vrere ever discovered.
It is grand almost beyond des
cription, and rivals the great Mam
moth cave in its smoothness of
character and uniformity. The
first 259 yards the bottom is as
smooth as a floor, then are found
piles of rubbish er debris that have
accumulated by falling from the
ceiling above. 106 yards or so apar' ,
the last one being something over
100 yards from water.
Tiiare is no difficulty in reaching
the water, it runs back on cither
side in a trough from the main
pool the distance of 100 feet, set
tling down on either side, leaving
the floor crowning.
The water i9 remarkably clear ;oue
can see the sand in the bottom at
the depth of four feet, and it ap
pears to have no cutlet, as it is per
fectly still and quiet; it is cood
drinkiug water.
This wonderful curiosity has to
be seen to be fully appreciated.
It is truly of basalt formation and
is quartenary, the walls are honey
combed iu many places; tho walls
on the south side sets on a hori
zontal basement of eruptive rocks.
This magnificent cave has evi
dently eeco used in time by the
Indians as a fortiGcalion ; the en
trance has been walled up with
stone, and there are, also, two walls
or breastworks on the iaside. tun
ning from each corner of the en
trance diagonally near the center
some fifty feet long; this was for a
second defence in case they were
driven back from the mouth.
Around and above the mouth of
the cave there are considerable fine
cbippings where the aborigines
have sharpened their stene imple
ments which were made out of
obsidian, or volcanic glass.
I think that the water is in he
end of the cave, but cannot tell
without fa 'titer exploring.
I was informed by two parties
that ish have been caught in the
cave that were of blue color aid
eyeless.
