No Public Aid Sought or Needed.

LINCOLN, Neb., 20.-In answer to a
question whether the Irish National
League of America was gazing to take
public steps to relieve the alleged strait
ened circumstances of Mrs. Parnell,
President John Fitzgerald replied IN the
negative. He said:
Il think any pubic movement IN that
direction would be indicate and indecent
an insult to the Parnell family and a
slur upon the character OF her distin-
0uished son. The reported sad condition
Of Mrs. Parnell could not possibly have
res ulted from any neglect of her family.
Parnell himself expressed painful sur
prise when the intelligence was conveyed
to him as he had made ample arrange
ments to supply her financial welfare.
Some of those who are urging public
subscriptions for Mrs. Parnell are men
who in their craving for notoriety have no
conception for honor or decency, but l hope
the innate delicacy OF Irish character will
prevent Irishmcni of America from play
ing into the hands OF those pretended pa
triots and philanthropists. Mrs. Parnell's
family can and will care for her wants
without uncalled for public interference"

-----
Unearthinc a Mammoth's Bones.

w. b. Jelly, ex-reeve of Amaranth,
who lives on lot No. 8, con. Z, was last
summer engaged in scooping out a
watering place for his cattle in a wet
corner of his farm, and while excavat-
ing he unearthed the ribs of an animal,
which were of such large size that they
startled him. He resolved to prosecute
his work next day but during the night
it rained 50 heavily that he was unable
to dig for any more of the remains of
the animal.
He exhibited the ribs a couple of weeks
ago to Mr.. John Jelly, of Shelburne, the
result being that this gentleman's curl
osty was so much aroused that he hired
men to resume the search for the re-
naming parts of what he believed to be
an antediluvian animal. Mr. Jelly, as
sisted by David Hoey and John Ander-
son, few days ago began operations.
After digging for awhile they exhumed
other bones, consisting of ribs and ver-
zebra. These relics told their own tale.
Some of the ribs are four feet long,
and the component parts of the back
bone are in proportion to the weight
and size of the framework Of the body.
Mr.. Jelly, with the eye of an archeol-
ogist, prosecuted his search with vigor,
and in few days was delighted by the
unearthing of one Of the horns Of the
mammoth. The enormous size of the
antediluvian animal can be estimated
from the size and weight of the immense
horn or tusk.
At the butt it is eight inches in diam
eter, and the part secured is twelve feet
eight inches in length. Unfortunately
the workmen could not locate the tip of
the horn; but competent scientists who
viewed the remains say that it extended
fourteen feet. The horn was broken in
three pieces, and had TO be removed in
parts, one of which required the strength
of two men to elevate to q wagon. The
middle piece itself measured eight feet,
and looks more like a log of wood than
the undoubted horn of an animal.
The work of excavation il still going
on, and daily ribs and portions of the
vertebr@ are being dug up. The soil is a
black muck, from two TO three feet in
depth, and under this is layer of white
mari, descending to a depth in some cases
of two feet, and in others of three and
four feet. Underneath the stratum is a
bed of black sand. In tho mari are to
be seen shells, indicating that the NAM
moth must have perished when the
country was covered with water or sub.
jected to the glacial invasion. Toronto
