TALL SKELETONS.
Remains OF Prehistoric Giants I'm
earthed Near Chautauqua.

CHAUTAUoUA, July 29.-In grading for
an electric railroad TO connect Lakewood
with jamestown Saturday, labOrers plowed
up near Lakewood the bones Of man and
woman of remarkable size. Local
historians claim that they are tAe remains
of prehistoric race. Whatever the facts
may be, the affair has caused much excite
ment IN this section, and everybody has a
theory for the skeleton gisnts. One news
paper man here brought home the femur
and skull of the man in a -four sack, and
has them on exhibition at Chautauqua.
The current belief is that they were white
settlers who fell in the French and Indian
wars. A very curious and suggestive
thing about the find was that the lower
jaw Of the man was intact while that of
the woman was entirely gone, showing
that womankind was much the same in
prehistoric times as now.

Berland and Dore, two accomplices Of
Mere Berland in what is known as the
Courbevoie murder, took place Monday
morning on the Place de la Roqrette.

but desperate struggle took place on the
scaffold. Finally the executioners sue
ceeded in forcing the criminal down upon
the bascule, and from there slid his head
under the knife. Dore did not make any
resistance. The execution of the two
men occupied only eight minutes of time.

Dun's Trade Review.

r. G. Dun & COS Weekly Review OF
Trade for week ending July IS, says:
Some improvement in the business situ-
alton is still noted. There is more actual
trade in most of the leading branches and
more general confidence as to the future.
But the monetary situation does not grow
clearer. A speculation in products Is
springing up which threatens to make
trouble when the crop movement becomes
large. Distribution of circulars in enorm-
Gus number from Minneapolis and Washing
ton. professedly by the Farmers Alliance,
advising all farmers to hold their wheat
does not yet affect actual receipts. but
stimulates spectators to buy largely in ex-
pectation of boom and much money has
already been locked up and carrying ac-
cumulating stocks. With the utmost free
dom In movement of wheat, recovery from
Europe of the SIC, 900, 900 gold shipment this
year would be difficult but the wheat ex-
ports checked for some months scarcity OF
money would be felt in all markets and all
branches OF industry. AT the west crop
prospects stimulate everywhere. Chicago
reports wheat receipts five times last years,
an increase of 30 to so per cents In dressed
beef, hides and butter, but some decrease
in cured meats and lard. The business fall
ures occurring throughout the country
during the last seven days number 254, as
compared with a total OF ga last week.
For the corresponding week of last year the
figures were 109.
