RELICS OF A FORGOTTEN AGE.
Two Skeletons Covered with Sheet Cop
per--A Copper Eagle.

CHILLICoTHE, q Dec. 1S.-Hundreds oil
people have come to see the mound builder
relics uncovered by Warren Y. Moorhead
ot the five skeletons lying side by side
two were covered with sheet of copper
six by eight feet. A large copper AK
weighing forty-one pounds was found. In
size and value it exceeds any single speci
ment ever found in the United States
There are traces of gold in it. The cutting
edge Is seven inches broad and very sharp
How it could have been fastened in a
handle and used is a mystery. All the
smaller copper axes are such as have been
found before
An Artistic Piece of Work.
Thirty copper plates with mound build
ers' cloth on them overlapped the axes.
The average size of the plates was ten by
SIX inches. A great copper eagle twenty
inches in diameter, with wings outspread,
beak open, and tail and wing feathers
neatly stamped upon the copper surface,
covered the knees Of one of the skeletons.
This is one of the most artistic designs even
found in copper. Remains of a copper
stool about a foot in length and several
inches in height lay near the head of one of
the skeletons. The stool was made out of
wood, and had been covered with sheet
copper. Flint implements, bear tusks,
seasheIls, and trinkets were also found

tive Of the wife of Dawson, concerning her
alleged seduction before her marriage to
Dawson. Forty minutes were consumed in
reading the affidavit The showing for the

unable to appear In court, and also that tw o
material witnesses were absent. The case

tlnuance, but announced that it had i'm
pOrtant testimony in rebuttal OF the atfida-
wits offered by the defense.

against Clarence M. McKlory, negro who
is charged with the murder of the wife of

ALAWYERS MISTAKE.
How He Killed thu Goose That Laid
the Golden Egg.
From. the Valdosta (Ga.) Times.

NAAO AOA0-h GSS-
From the VdldostG (Gd.) Times.
When the lawyers meet on the circuit
and gather about the hotels at night,
usually you can hear some Of the best
stories going, and often they are told at the
expense Of their own fraternity. This one
was told in Valdosta this week:
On one occasion two old farmers, near
neighbors and friends, fell out about pair
Of andirons, and no amount of talk could
bring them to an agreement. Neighbors inter =
fered and tried to settle the matter in vain.
At last one of the men went to the country
town to employ lawyer. When he called
at the Office he was very mucn disappointed
when he learned that the lawyer had been
retained by the other farmer. "But," said
the lawyer, 81 have friend over in -,
who is as good a lawyer as l am, and he
will take your case and represent you
faithfully ard well. will give you note
to him.
The farmer put the note in his pocket,
went home, rose early next morning and
started over to the neighDoring town to
see the other lawyer. On the road he began
to wonder why the first lawyer had taken
so much interest in his case, when he was
employed by his enemy, and he decided he
would open the note and read what he had
to say to his brother lawyer. 1t read as
follows:
Dear Tom:
Ihave fat goose
And send you another
You pick the one
And I'll pick the other.
The farmer turned his horse around and
headed for home. When he arrived at the
cross road which led to his neighbours house
he took it, and lost no time in finding his
man, and when found they settled their
case in ten minutes.

that you'll be astonished at the prices
we are asking for our S25 and $40 suits.
These prices go as low as $50 and SIS.
Perhaps you cannot realize how such
suits can be made for such a figure, and
it does seem Incredible; but you will be
still more amazed when you find out
how excellent they are as to quality of
material. As a matter of fact they
would be cheap at much higher figures,
for the greatest possible care has been
exercised in finishing them and they can
scarcely be distinguished from made to
order suits. We can say Just the same
of our SIS aud $40 suits; they are cheap
at the original price, but now we give
them shove by putting the knife into
the price, and give the workingman

chance to buy flrst-olass clothing way
