Prehistoric scnInture.

There is shown in the Exposition of
Anthropological Sciences at Paris the cast
of two horses heads, found in such posi-
tion that the men of science are war
ranted in placing them at the very begin
ming of mems efforts to create works of
art. The originals are carved from bone,
but are so fragile with age that they will
not bear the light. The power and know
ledge of anatomy shown by the prehistoric
cave-man who carved these horses are said
to be most surprising. Another work of
great merit IS the carved picture of man
crouching as he throws a javelin at an
aurochs, an animal now extinct in Europe.
Horses, deer, fish, and even the sculptured
figure Of cat, are exhibited, though it
was supposed that the cat, certainly the
domesticated cat, came from Egypt within
historical times. A study of these seulp-
lures or bone reveals the fact that at least
ore color, red, was used to enhance their
effect

THE CRUELTY CASE.
A. PAGNI MAKES HIS DEFENSE IN A
LETTER.
He Is Bitter Against His Neighbors and
Has no Kind Words For
His Mother.

yesterdays RECORD UNION there was
detailed account of the unflial conduct oi
A. Pagni towards his aged mother. Late
last night Pagni came to the RECORD UNION
office with the following letter in his de.
tense. In reply to g question he said that
his wife wrote the letter and that the ex.
pressions in it are jointly those of himself
and wife, that he told her what to write
and some parts she suggested. The lette,
speaks for itself:
To the Editors Of the RECORD UNION !
wish TO correct q statement made in the
morning paper. | am q hard working
man and try hard 10 support my family
and pay my honest debts, and l wish TO in
form the public and my friends that the
statement made by my dago neighbors is
false and untrue. l support my mother
the same as the rest Of my family, every-
thing she asks for is given 10 her, if il is in
the house, as can prove by my American
neighb0rs.
Those green Italians at the garden are
only jealous because | am getting along
better than they are; their fine vegetable
peddler can hardly make enough to paw
expenses and buy a little maccaroni; and
talking about feeding and clothing nv
mother. She goes up there and takes care
of his babies all day, while his wife does
her washing; when she comes home they
give her an apron full of halfro!ten Yegeta-
bles, such as tomatoes that has been taken
to market and brought home with the
Juice running out. One time they gave
her piece of old yellow bacon, that dog
could not eat, and a piece of stale sour
dough bread. That is the way they feed
her.
As for clothes. that they talk about. |
have seen one calico dress that cost So or 40
cents, and am sure il was earned by pack
ing the babies. Ny mother has lived in
the house with US four years, and | know
that there is not one Italian woman that
would live with her half the time. She
hates my wife because she is an American
and has been trying to make trouble be-
tween me and my wife ever since she has
been here. She told one of the neighbors
that she wished my wife would die when
she Wgs sick, as there SCENE to be no other
way of getting rid of her
also think if G. Aleksa would attend to
his own business little better, and not be
shooting off his pistol st midnight every
night to make folks think there is thieves
around, he would do little better as he is
in danger of getting in trouble if the thing
continues. His statement about cruelty to
my mother is only one of his Taco lies that
he is so used to telling-our neighbors all
know better.
would like to know what that genial
young Jackass of q Churchman knows
about my business he only wants to be
smart, but everybody is acquainted with
him, and we think he had better look at
home, as we hear that he is not any too
good to his own family.
And I think that if those green Italians
from the broncoh hills had any sence they
would not try to bring trouble in the
house when my wife was sick in bed be-
tween life and death, but they have not
been in Cali long enough to be civilized
yet. a. PAGNI.

Thn Old Fort

EDS RECORD UNION: From information
received to-day there is reasonable hope
that price may be had on the Suffers
Fort property in the next two or three
weeks. In the meantime nothing should
be done toward opening Twenty seventh
street, till this information is received.
This matter is being thoroughly discussed
throughout the State, and there is but one
opinion, and that is, that Suffers Fort
should be purchased and restored TO its
former condition, and then that the prop
erty be improved and beautified. Now is
the proper time for all this to be done and
Benjamin Merrill will serve his own best
interest and do benefit TO the State by
selling the properly at a reasonable price
