&C. S. Thurston was in the city day

some bones which John McKall found
recently on the bank of the Minnesota
river in Judson. opposite VIM. Goodell's
farm. He thinks that they are the re-
mains of q mammoth. They are eight
feet from the surface of the ground, and
were found by the caving away of the
bank of the river. They are only part
ly exposed, and az they are frozen into
the ground they will not be disturbed
until spring. Mr.. Thurston saw the
bones and described them as being very
large, and reasonably well preserved.
He said that he would dig them out in
the spring and bring them to the city
for examination. From time to time
the bones of various large animals have
been fonnd in the Minnesota river val
ley, hereabouts, and this discovery is
not strange.

made three propositions to the man
who came after her; that he buy her a

overcame all other desires, and the

managed her very quietly and without
any force whatever, treating her gently
and kindly.

THE LEADER

Everyone who reads knows the result
of Don Quixote's "battle with the wind
mills" Even though that erratic indi-
vidual had only the most primitive mills
to combat he found himself done up"
ON his first attempt to subdue that which
had aroused his ire; had he come In
contact with an Aermotor it is probable
that he would have refrained from any
attempt to contest the ground with SO
strong a machine. We can excuse him
for his action in battling with the an
cient style windmill, and could have
done so had he waited feW years longer
and tackled the old fashioned wooden
mills which are now going rapidly out
OF date, but there could be no excuse for
his desire to fight steel Aermotor. He
would not be in it.
Don Quixote's farce reminds us OF the
attempts of some persons of to-day who,
with even greater confidence than the
Don, start in for a fight with the Aer-
motors. They buckle on their armor
and start out, only to end by adding to
the rapidly increasing popularity Of the
AermotOr, The greatest windmill on
earth"
We get a new invoice of Aermotors
Oy each SteameT anu yet CdiuOt
supply the demand for them. They are
recognized as the most powerful mill in
operation, and we do not hesitate to say
that within six months there will not be
single individual who needs a wind
mill on these Islands who will buy any
other kind.
You have been told through the news
papers before that the mills are SO light
in construction that gentle zephyr will
run them SO easy and perfect are those
we have seen in operation, and by a
letter recently received from purchaser
of all Aermotor We are almost tempted
to tell you now that they will run in a
dead calm. This would not be far
wrong for we have seen 12-foot mill
revolve rapidly when there was not
enough wind to carry the smoke from
the stack of steam engine only short
distance from the Aermotor. These are
facts much too hard for the manufac
turers of other mills to fight. We enjo,
hearing the praises OF other mills suns
because parties interested in windmills
make comparisons and then come to oul
store and select an Aermotor. HA

THE ROME EXPLOSION.
Many Windows in the Vatican
and Relics Destroyed.

ROME, April 24.-The explosion
yesterday created great alarm at
the Vatican. All the windows OF
the Pope's library were broken
and number of precious relics
were destroyed. The stained glass
windows OF ST. Peters and st.
Pauls were damaged and many
relics destroyed. St. Paul church
is closed while the damage is being
repaired. The destruction wrought
is irreparable, as the valuable
works of art which were destroyed
Cannot be replaced. Some time Will
elapse before the full amount OF
damage can be known.
1t now transpires that the rope
was engaged IN prayer when the
explosion shook the Vatican build
ing. So severe was the shock
that his Holiness would have fallen
had not one of the servants caught
him.
An investigatigation shows that
the explosion was caused by the
accidental ignition of some shell!
capsules. A number of the injured
have died.
King Humbert to-day is calling
at the hospitals and visiting the

of this city.
Among those hurt by the accl
dent was Billot, the French Am
bassador, who was slightly injured

IT is pleasant to note that Her
Majesty Queen Liliuokalani has
been received on Hawaii with a
loyalty not surpassed during any
previous reign, and which must
have been as gratifying to her AS
it is creditable tosber people. At
each place that she visited all elias
ses, natives and foreigners, turned
out, greeted and entertained her
right royalty. The decorations at
Kobala and Hilo were on a scale
that has never been seen there on
any similar occasion.
