Three great cave* lu a moan tain of

Indian mluers who worked there as
early aa 1000 B. C. The great natural
salt niuss stands near the town of S t
Thomas, Nevada, In a desert where
rain falls so seldom that It has re
mained for ages without dissolving,
which would have been Its fate In a
inolster region. Underground waters,
however, have hollowed the caverns
In lta Interior, and In these were found
stone hammers with wooden handles,
sandals of yucca fiber, carrying nets,
and even corncobs, all perfectly pre
served through the drying and anti
septic action of the salt. Most of the
relics date since the beginning of the
Christian era, but a carved club was
found of a type used by the basket-
makers, the forerunners of the present
Pueblos, who Inhabited (lie Southwest
about 1000 B. C. The salt of the
mountain Is now being mined from
the surface by a commercial firm.
Why the Indians chose the difficult
and dangerous work underground,
when salt Is easily obtained outside. Is
tlllficult to Imagine. It Is conjectured
• hat several tribes had “claims" on
the mountain, and that the later
coiners, finding the surface workings
all pre-empted, hnd no choice but to
enter the dark caverns to seek their

Proper Honor Paid by
Shah to Fellow Poet
In his “Memories of Eighty Years,"
Chauncey M. Depew tells the follow
ing:
Browning, the poet, was present at
a great dinner given for the shah of
Persia at Stafford house, the home of
the duke of Sutherland, and the finest
palace In London. Every guest was
asked. In order to impress the shah, to
ycome In all the decorations to which
they were entitled. The result was
that the peers came In their robes,
which they otherwise would not have
thought of wearing on such an occa
sion. Browning suid he had received
a degree at Oxford and that entitled
him to a scarlet cloak. He was so out
ranked that he sat at the foot of the
table. The shah said to his host:
“Who Is that distinguished gentle
man In the scarlet cloak at the other
end of the table?” The host answered:
“That Is one of our greatest poets.”
“That Is no place for a poet,” re
marked the shah ; “bring him up here
and let him sit next to me." So at the
royal command the poet took the sent
of honor. The shah said to Browning:
" I am mighty glnd to have you near
me, for I am a poet mj-self.”
Races in Malta Speak
Same Tongue as Christ
There ts still In this world a race of
people who speak the same tongue
that Jesus and His apostles used in
their ordinary everyday tulks to the
people, says the Christian Science
Monitor.
This spoken language wns “Ara
maic." We still may find languages
and dlalectswhlch have descended
from Arninulc.
To find today In the pure Aramaic
practically Identical to the colloquial
language thut Jesus used we must go
to the Island of Maltu.
Even there the traveler must not ex
pect to hear It In Valletta. The people
of the seaport have long had Inter
course with the Italians and the Eng
lish and their language has changed
accordingly.
Travel Inland to those compact
cities of stone— to Zell an, to Musta
with Its enormous dome, the third
largest In the world—there one hears
not the Anglicized, not the Italianized
speech, hot pure Aramaic. There also
one sees a race of people of not only
Similar speech, but of similar appear
ance and of similar character to the
“chosen of our Lord"—“devout men
and women who serve God dally.“ One
ean well Imagine while living among
these people what Andrew, Peter, John
and Matthew urns« have been like.
Many races hove held so-called do
minion over these Islands, hut none
has succeeded In Implanting Its Ian
gunge.

Great Men’s Letters
Immortality and letter-writing go
hand In hand, and those who make It
their business to keep green the grave»
of the departed great pursue an eter
nal quest.
What wouldn't disciples of the
"Shakespeare myth” give to he able
to unearth a packet of letters from
William Shakespeare to some corre
spondent In which he settled, clearly
and definitely, all the points that have
lei* to controversy?
It Is extremely improbable that any
such convenient packet will ever be
found. But students of Alfred de Mus
set are slightly more hopeful of one
day discovering a set of lost letters
written by the French poet to the
French actress, Rachel. Having rnn-
sacked France In vain, they have now
turned to England, with the nssiiriinee
that “any Information as to the where
abouts of these letters will be grate
fully received."

John L.’s Signature
R. F. Dibble In his biography of
John I,. Sullivan records that once a
dainty little mlss_ nsked the famous
pugilist to write her a few autographs
so that she could sell them at a church
! fair.
“Oh, what're you giving iwf?" said
John L. In a graciously tragic way. "I
ain’t no good at writing, but I ’ll have
my manager make as many of my—
what d'you call 'em, as you want."
The damsel told him that this would
hardly do. So pens, Ink and pnper
were ordered and after many labori
ous efforts In which he spoiled more
than a dozen pens and ruined n quan
tity of stationery, Sullivan finally suc
ceeded In scratching down about twen-
ly budly blotched hut fairly legible
signatures.
“I always like to do what I ean for
religion,” he assured her na grasping
her hand and most of her forearm he
tween Ids Ink-stained fingers he hade
her a courteous good by.

The Modest Groom
At a village church a wedding was
fixed and (lie happy morn arrived. In
due course a youthful swain and a
buxom damsel presented themselves
at the chancel steps.
When the supposed bridegroom was
asked, “ W ilt thou hove this woman to
be thy wedded wife?” he shimmered:
“Please, sir. I'm not the man 1 1
don't want to get married 1”
"Not the m an;" exclaimed the cler
gyman aghast. “Then where la the
bridegroom?”
“He's down nt the bottom of the
choreh, Mr. He's too shy to come up."

Tin Is worth nhout $1,470 a ton. A1
North Dundas. In Tasmania, a nugget
of Hie metul has been found which
weighed 5,400 pounds, and wns almost
pure melalllc "tin.
Copper often occurs In nature In a
pure state. A solid block of fhls metal,
weighing more than a ton 11 ml a half
has Just been found In South Afrlcn.
The most wonderful discovery of the
kind wns made in the Andes, at the
hack of Peru, where, at a height of
14,000 feet, there has been found a
mountain of copper ore a mile long
and half a mile wide.
Silver Is sometimes fonnd In great
masses. Most of us have heard of
Cohalt, the miracle silver city of
northern Ontario. One day. In the
spring of 1903, two workmen qnar-
reled while nt work on a rough rail-
way track made for hauling lumber.
High words led to blows, and one
man flung an axe at the other. It
missed him hut struck a bowlder,
splitting It in two and showing up In
lta heart a mass of glittering white
ness. It was a lump of almost pure
silver.
That spring Cobalt bad four small
shacks, but six months later there
were more than 5.000 Inhabitants.
