HEWN OUT OF SOLID ROCK
India’s Wonderful Temple
Cave of Karli.
A Mavelons Structure that One would Take
for a Superb OathedraL
Tlie temple-cave of Karli, says a
letter to the New York Independent,
is an illustration of the fearful lapse
of the ethnic faiths of Pagan India.
The monks of Albania and other regi¬
ons between the Adriatic and tlie
iEgean Sea, dug out many a cell in
tlie eariy days, and honey-combed vast
regions, where they spent their lives,
* itnd were laid away when the long
% monotony was over.
The Karli cave-temple Is very differ¬
ent in construction. It is by far tlie
finest in India. To reach it, you take
the train from Bombay, and go nearly
a hundred miles eastward, on the
general line to Calcutta. From
Khandala to the Karli cave-temple we
had a ride of five miles on horseback.
It was not long before wo were coin
polled to leave the carriage road, and
take a path through tho fields, toward
the range of mountains on our left,
and by the time we were getting !
accustomed to tho path, we had to
leave our horses, and begin climbing j
in downright earnest. Now, a climb
in India, even to see its finest temple
cave, is not a little thing. My wtiite
pith-hat, with turban of light cloth
folded about it, and then a double
umbrella, of gray cloth, white within,
seemed to help but little in keeping off
the pressure of the heat on a late day
ed the Indian November. When we
reached tlie cool aud shaded vestibule
and threw ourselves down on the first
broken stones we saw, and looked up
into tho face of the colossal stone god¬
dess who s;it on an elephant of stone,
we were glad enough to rest.
Tho temple walls, and every part of
their adorning sculpture, are hewn
out of the stone mountain. Were
there no statuary of pagan deities, no
reminders of an early worship, and
were the country any other than In¬
dia, one would take this wonderful
structure for a superb cathedral. Not
many serious changes would need to
lie made in order to convert into an
English minster. The cave is 124
feet long, forty-live feet broad, and
forty-six feet from floor to ceiling.
There are aisles on cither side of the
temple, separated from the nave by
octagonal pillars. The capital of each
pillar is crowned with two kneeling
elephants, on whose backs are seated
two figures, representing the divinities
to whom the temple is dedicated.
These are of beautiful features, as,
indeed, are all tho representations of
deities iu tlie Karli ravo- temple.
There is nothing of that repulsive
sculpture which one sees at Puna and
in other modern Hindu pagodas. I
saw no figures which wore in part
human and in part beast-like. Each
was true to its class, from vestibule
back to altar. Tlie altar, and the
place where it stands, keep up the re¬
semblance to a Christian church. Be¬
hind it there are seven pillars, which
separate It from what, in a church,
would correspond with the choir.
There are altogether thirty-eight col¬
umns in the temple. Tlie grandost is
the large lion pillar in front, which
has sixteen sides, and is surmounted
with four lions.
All this great recess has been cut
from the solid rock, which seems to be
nothing softer than porphyry itself.
The statuary is in massive relief, and
consists of figures also cleft from the
rock, like Thorwaldaen’s lion, iu Lu¬
cerne. Tlie great pillars are chastely
proportioned columns, both base and
capital proving that they have not
been introduced, but, like all other
portions of the temple, have been cut
from the solid mass of which the
whole mountain consists. They are
part and parcel of floor and ceiling.
There is an outward porch, or vesti¬
bule, fifty-two feet wide and fifteen
feet, deep, and on the heavy molding
above there are figures of a man, a
woman and a dwarf. All this, too,
like the whole spacious temple itself,
has been patieutly cut from firm rock.
The only thing Which is not of na¬
tive rock is a wooden covering or ceil¬
ing. This has been the puzzle of all
the toilers in Indian archaeology, and
solution they seem of to-day the difficulty to be no than nearer a j
when {
they began. The entire immediate
covering of the temple is teak, a
naUve which resists wood, the almost white ant the and only one j
every
Indian insect.
A Famous Jewel-Box.

Albrechf of Bavaria, on his marriage j

Her head was pillowed on his breast
and looking up in a shy way she said:
“Do you know, dear George, that—”
“You mean dear James, I think,” he
interrupted, smiling fondly at her
mistake.

day evening.”—Aeto York Sun.
Home Life of tho Anumese,
The Anaraese are not shining exam
ples of the domestic virtue, says a Globe
Democratic Correspondent: Neither
have they in their intercourse with
one another that bland and self-deny
ing politeness which characterizes the
social relations of the Japanese in
s;ich an eminent degree. Both men
and women will discount a London fish¬
wife in tho matter of objurgation. I
have seen two women leaning out of
respective doorways on opposite sides
of the narrow streets of Hanoi, making
the welkin ring with vile reproaches
and insults, whilo the listening neigh,
borhood smiled and applauded.
The fire on domestic hearthstones
can not be expected to burn brightly
under dripping roofs of thatch and
drafty walls of palm or bamboo mat¬
ting. It is hard to tell whether tho
husband or wife rules the roost,
though doubtless, as in civilized coun.
tres, it is sometimes the one and
sometimes the other, I have seen a
husband chastise his erring wife with
his fist in the streets of Haiphong,
while in Hanoi, where the native pop
illation is expected to retire early, 1
have seen a husband who stayed out
till haif-past eight o'clock squatted at
the door of his home, humbly begging
to be admitted, with every prospect of
having to spend the night in that ha
rniliating attitude. At Sontay I have
also seen an aged crone pursue her in¬
dolent and servile lord into a crowded
thoroughfare and lead him back and
compel him to resume some household
drudgery which he had shamefully
endeavored to evade. Between bus¬
j band and wife, therefore, so far as the
subjection of either is concerned, the
honors may be considered easy. Mar¬
riage is a sort of social compact, man¬
aged on the part of the young woman
by her mother. It is more than any
tiling else among the common class a
matter of bargain and sale. With
foreigners the marriage do conven
ance prevails as in China, the mother
selling the daughter to tho stranger
for a stipulated sum per mouth. There
are no occupations in which young
girls can be profitably employed beside
taking care of the superfluous child¬
ren of the family, except sometimes to
assist at the hereditary labor or trade,
or to learn the minstrel business,
thrum the guitar and sing in tho fash¬
ion of the country—a fashion, as in
Japan, adopted from the Chinese
many years ago.
A Tough Story.
A Florida correspondent of the San
Francisco Chronicle tells a snake story
that was vouched for by a gentleman
of his acquaintance and in iris own
words:
“We liad a good brood ot beno and
were proud of thorn. Two were
splendid hatchers—Giddy and Golly.
You may laugh at the names, but they
were given by a pot sister who had
been dead many years. After hear¬
ing a sermon one Sunday she decided
to call her two hens Gideon and
Goliath. She was so delighted with
them that mother hadn’t the heart to
change them, and so, amid tho laugh¬
ter of the household, we christened
them Giddy and Golly. They were
handsome creatures, and never hatch¬
ed less than fifteen out of sixteen eggs.
“One day my brother gravely in¬
formed me that he had soon a big
snake in a corner of the barn, and wo
set out to hunt for it. As vve neared
the place there seemed to be an unusu¬
al commotion among the hens, and
Giddy and Golly were vociferating on
the edge of their respective nests in
the language of their ilk with such
vehemence that we could not beer
ourselves think. Then we were sure
that the snalco had been brewing
trcm ’ ,lp > an<l forthwith searched tlie
barn llntil we fouml jt - Finning it by
head in its hole, I cut it open, and
there were thirteen of Geliy’s big
white eggs, still warm and eomforta
ble. These were at onco transferred
to the nest, making Golly happy over
her recovered treasures. Well, madam,
the thirteen eggs that had been in tho
snake’s maw were everyone hatched
and grew up into matronly henhood, 1
quite oblivious of their narrow escape ;
and curious vicissitude.”

Signs of Affection.
As a sign of affection, kissing was 1
unknown to the Australians, the New
Zealanders, the Papuans, the Exqui- '
maux and other races. The Polvne- I
slans and the Malays always
sit down when speaking to a superior. !
The inhabitants of Mallicolo, au island
in the Pacific Ocean, show their ad
miration by hissing; the Exquimaux
pull a persons nose as a compliment;
a Chinaman puts on his hat where we
should take it off, and among the same
curious people a coffin is considered
as a neat and appropriate present for
an aged , person, especially if the aged
person is in bad health.

The German government lias dis¬
charged all women who were employed
in its postal, telegraph, and railway

sued among the discharged. The mo¬

Rats and mice were long the scourge
of Hawaiian farmers, but they have
been successfully dealt with by the
introduction of the mongoose. Thirty
six pairs of this animal were imported
from Jamaica two years ago into the
district of Hilo, with the result of in¬
stantly clearing 4,000 acres of cane of
this nuisance. One planter estimates
his saving from this cause last year at
$50,000.
A curious fact in connection with
cremation is the amount of ashes re¬
ceived from a body and the disposition
made of them. The two largest
bodies cremated in Philadelphia
weighed two hundred pounds each,
the ashes weighing four pounds eight
ounces and five pounds four and a
half ounces, respectively. The largest
percentage of ashes thus far received
was from a body weighing 180 pounds,
and whose ashes weighed five pounds
and eleven ounces. Various disposi¬
tion lias been made of the ashes, in
some instances the remains being
buried, in some retained in the family,
and in others sent to Europe. The
ashes of one subject were placed in
a marble urn and deposited in a Ma¬
sonic lodge room, ivhile those of an¬
other, Miss CJancey, the actress, were
divided, a part being buried by the
side of her sister in Baltimore and the
rest by her mother’s side In Maine.
As a grape growing country a large
portion of Ontario, says The Toronto
Globe, compares very favorably with
most of tlie well known grape coun¬
tries of tlie world. A very consider¬
able portion of the province Is not
surpossed by any district either in
America or Europe, so far at least
as quantity of grapes per acre is con
concerned. The yield of the Concord
grape- tlie leading grape of this con¬
tinent—averages from Montreal to the
necroic river, over twice as much as in
France, Italy, or south Germany, but
tlie Concord is a heavy bearer. Some
parts of southern Ontario, like wes¬
tern New York, show average yields
equaling any in southern California.
As compared with the Carolinas, Mis¬
souri, or southern Ohio, Ontario takes
precedence in grape growing, for,
though in some of the higher and
more northern districts frosts occa¬
sionally cause damage, and once in a
series of years destroy the crop, that
drawback Is not nearly so serious
as the mildew of more southern lati¬
tudes in America east of the Rocky
m ountains.

“E 1’lnrihns Unnm.”
It is a somewhat curious fact that
the words “E Pluribus Unum,” which
have appeared on different United
States coins, and are on the standard
silver dollar, were never authorized to
be so placed by law. They were first
used on coins in 1786. There was no
United States Mint then, but there
was a private one at Newburg, and
the motto of the United States was
first placed on a copper coin struck at
that mint. A very few collections
have specimens of this coin. They are
very valuable. In 1787 a goldsmith
named Brasher coined a piece which
was known as the $16 gold piece, and
the motto, placed in this form, “Unum
E Pluribus.” was stamped upon it
The coin is worth to-day $2,000, and
only four are known to be in exist¬
ence. In 1787 the motto also appear
