Ruins of what once was a flourish “ng “munitions factory” are sheltered | in a cave 14 miles east of Mill Springs. in Wayne county, Kentucky, in the opinion of Prof. A. M. Miller, head of | the department of geology at the Uni versity of Kentucky. This “factory,” according to Pro- fessor Miller, produced arrow heads to ne shafts of Indian braves whose ‘s land, in the days before the rifle supplanted the bow, was ky. from « trip to Wayne county, where he prospected for caves, rockhouses and old Indian village sites, fessor Miller returned recently | favorable | ground for the finding of extinct mum mulinn remains, “Two rockhouses and one cave were examined,” he sald. “In one of these, about fourteen miles east of Mill Springs, numerous arrow heads In vari ous stages of completion were scat t a shallow depth over the floor, ing evidence that this shelter formerly was up arrow head workshop of ubortgines.” The other rockhouse also gave evi dence of having been a popular resort of the aborigines.

The oxen be- caulue panic-stricken and dashed down the rough road, dragging along the body of one ox, killed by the lions, with the swaying wagon behind them. The tions followed their prey. This was the mad procession that eted a lone motorist at a curve of read. He had no rifle, and It was st au unconsclots movement that his hand to the horn button. At the first sound the Hons seemed non plussed. The motorist then blew loud and long. As the uncanny and sus- trined shriek rose above the clamor of the frightened animals the lions slunk away among the rocks, headed for the shelter of the bush, and the oxen swung clear of the dust-covered auto- bile and came to a stop at the side of the road.

Everyone says he 1s look- ing much better lately.” “Well, he looked bad enough an hour ago,” said Mr. Brown, “I wonder why that was,” said Mrs. Jones. “Oh, I can tell you that,” said Mr. Brown. “You see, I was in my car when I ran into him.”"—Farm Life.
