'STRANGE FIND IN A CAVE.
skeleton and Old Mookse-New Druni•
wick Men Discover Trace* of
Dwelling Used 200 Years Ago.
A. remarkable discovery was made on
a recent Sunday afternoon, by Charles
E. Stewart and het uncle, I. E, Stew.
art, near johnoville, N. I3., about eight
Stilles back of the village of Bath, where
the brews of a human being were
'round In a bloolraded cave. The Steve -
arts, who have long been desirous of
inveetigating, went to the cave, and
with dynamite the obstruction to the
cave was demolished. The men found
twelve stone steps leading to a pas,
sage seven feet long and two feet wide,
this opening into a main room about
twelve feet square, where they found
the bones of a human being lying on a
bunk of stone.
No trace of flesh was there and the
boues were dry and crumbly, Near the
bones was a gold ring on which was
inscribed "John Long, Dec. 1779." A
few inches away was a silver watch,
which bore the date 1740. Under-
neath the 'bones were found several
traces ot coarse hair, which would in-
dicate that the body had lain on a
skin, or something of that nature.
Underneath the bunk were found three
books, two in Latin, the third written
in English.
One of the Latin books was Sueton-
tus' History of Rome, dated 1667, and
on the fly leaf were several Latin in-
scriptions. Inside was written: "B, A.
Strong, Oxford College, May 24, 1676."
'Underneath this appeared the name
James Hayward, 1685. The other book
was Seneca's Tragedies, and it was
marked the date 1659.
'In the English book was written the
names of David Fowles and Michael
Carney. Around the books, which were
In a good state of preservation, was a
large piece of bark on which were
meters believed to be plans of other
caves. At one end. o! the room and im-
mediately underneath the little hole in
the roof was an old fireplace. What
this signifies the people here do not
know, but the Investigation will be
continued.
Though several persons by the nama
of Strong have figured on the rolls of
Oxford University, none of them bore
the initials "B. A." Moreover, there
was no one by the name of Strong at
the university in 1676, or within 20
years of that date, according to Alumni
Oxonenses, edited by Foster. It might
also be pointed out that Oxford "col-
lege" proves an alibi, though the term
might be used.
Praise For "Tom" Tait.
If you ever meet a. visitor ffbm Aus-
tralia and want hira to say a good
thing for Canada and Canadians ask
tarn what he thinks of Mr. Thomas
Tait, the manager of the Government
railways in the State of Victoria. Ho
is sure to become enthusiastic at once,
unless he is a Laborite, and even then
he will admit that Mr. G. R. R. Codlt-
burn's eon-in-lawis a first-class ad-
ministrator.
Mr. George Harris Hays, of Mel-
bourne, who passed through Canada
en route to England, was most em-
phatic In his good opinion of Mr. Tait
when he said: "Our railways are in the
very best possible condition. We get
fine service, we haven't had a block in
two years, and, furthermore, the, roads
are paying, and all that Is due to the
man you sent out from here to run
them, Thomas Tait. He has done a
great work there, a work which no oth-
er man has ever been able to do. He
tackled in those railways one of the
toughest jobs a man ever ran into.
Railways in our country, you know, are
owned and worked by the Government.
So when Tait came along deputations
came to him from all over the coun-
try to ask him for reduced rates and
all kinds of favors, and the politicians
got after him and every one was trying
to work him for all he was worth. Why,
I tried to do it myself.
"I went to see him with a great big
deputation, and we told him he was
oppressing the poor people and small
farmers. All he answered was, am
going to make the Victorian railways
pay.' And he did make them pay, and
furthermore, he is the only man who
has ever been able to do it. Before
he came along these railways showed
an annual deficit of £200,000.
"Just think of that, and now they
Pay, and on account of this great
gain the Government budget shows an
increase instead of a deficit for the
first time in the history of the coup
try. Tait is a great railroad man-
ager, and he is now getting the credit
for it in Australia from the very
people who, when he first came, tried
to bowl him down."
George Ham's Versatility.
Wherever George Ham, the veteran
newspaper man, and representative of
the Canadian Pacific Railway, goes
there is sure to be a trail of stories.
Here are a couple of then, the first
told by The Nelson Herald:
"Whee George Ham, the well-known
C, P. R. official, was in Nelson last
week; a deputation wetted upon him
and urged in eloquent language that the
C. P. R. should build an hotel in that
city to aceortmodate the tourist trade,
George listened patiently to the haran-
gue and at its close reniarked:
boys, I don't think the d. P. R. can af-
ford to put up an hotel here, but,' and
he put his hand In his pocket and pull-
ed Out an imitation $100,000 bill given
to him as an ad for Saskatoon and
handed it to the leader Of the deputa-
tion, 'I am glad to contribute personale
ly this amount towards the scheme:
Nothing more was said about the ho-
tel."
The Vancouver Provittee chronicled
the other yarn:
"President Roosevelt, according to
the statement of Mr. George Kam will
make a tour of Canada as soon as his
prekent terra has expired, and will visit
'Vancouver. No doubt amid the prese
Sure of his other duties he has had time
to read out literature and inform him-
self of the advantages of this eity a8 0.

tug these years; it Completely
kited Its opponent, the old Federalist
party, which was the predecessor ot
the present Republican party. john
Quincy Adams, the sixth president of
the United Stateta who had a leaning
to Federalism, was elected by the
house of representatives (none of the
candidates having a majority of the
electoral vote) as a national Republi-
can, and when Jackson came In tour
years later it was as a Democratic
Republican. It was during bis time
that the latter half of the name was
dropped, and the party of Jefferson
took the name of the Democratic party',
It was not until 1854 that tbe present
Republican party assumed the name
which the party' of Jefferson and Jaelt-

To Corleiltete the Gods,
Just at night, if you happen to be
within the gates of Canton, you will
witness one of the little performances
that are supposed to deceive the prowl-
ing spirits of tbe night bent upon evil
intent, the while conciliating them
should they penetrate the deception.
Each little and, big shop possesses a
miniature Areplace built into the side
of the entrance. Prayers printed on
rice paper form the fuel with which
to offer 'up Incense to the "bogy man,"
who is supposed to make the nocturnal
visits. Beholding the smoke, he is sup-
posed to assume that no one lives with -
In, and therefore passes by; but should
he catch on and stop to investigate he
finds that the prayer papers on the al-
tar bear inscriptions attributing to him
such virtues and magnanimity that his
wrath is appeased and he turns from
his evil intent. — Edwin Wildman in
Chautauquan.
Dome -,-One Dimeint
"How big a dose do I need?" asked
the customer of the old fashioned drug-
gist
"Oh, I guess a heaping dimeful will
be about right," was the reply.
"A. dinieful?" echoed the customer.
"You Inean a dime's worth, don't you?"
"No, I don't," said the druggist. "A
dime's worth would be two ounces,
and you'd never survive such a quan-
tity as that. I mean for you to take a
dime and pile on It as much of this
powder as will stick. Then you have
the proper dose. Measuring medicine
on a dime is a method as old as United
States currency and almost as reliable.
There are certain powders that can be
measured more accurately that way
than any other, and among us old
timers who baye been used to meeting
enaergeacies daneful' Is a common
direction,"
Different Meanings.
Some words in our language have
several meanings, each different from
the others, so that it Is not always pos-
sible to know at first just what thougbt
the speaker wishes to express. There
is the word "humanitarian," for In-
stance. If you will turn to your Web-
ster you will find that it means, first,
one who denies the divinity of Christ
and believes him to bave been merely
human; second, one who limits the
sphere of duties to human relations
and airections to the exclusion of the
religious or spiritual; third, one who is
actively concerned in promoting the
welfare of his kind, a philanthropist
The third sense Is the one In which the
word is now most frequently used, and
Webster marks this definition as "re-
cent."
The Size of Canada.
Canada is larger than the 'United
States by a quarter of a million square
miles. Canada contains one-third of
the area of the British empire. Canada
extends over 20 degrees of latitude—
from Rome to north pole. Canada is
as large as thirty 'United Kingdoms,
eighteen Germanys, thirty-three Italys.
Canada is larger than Australasia and
twice the size of British India. Canada
has a boundary line of 3,000 miles be-
tween it and the United States. Cana-
da's seacoast equals half the earth's
circumference. Canada is 3,500 miles
wide and 1,400 from north to south.
Impure Candy.
Beware of Impure candy. Sugar in
candy quickly ferments after eating,
and if too much is eaten serious trou-
bles often result. Pure sugar dissolves
quickly in water and leaves a cleat
liquid, affordiug an easy way of test-
ing its purity. Drop a small piece of
candy in a glass, and over it pour boil-
ing water. Let it stand twenty-four
hours. It there is any foreign sub-
stance in the candy a sediment will be
found in the bottom of the glass. -
