have been killed by fencing in tie va.

"A farmer digging we'll near his
house at Darlington, Ind, has discovered
that his dwelling was built over the re-
mains of a huge mastodon. He has un-
covered about ten teet of the tusk, but
has stopped excavating in the sandstone
for fear OF endsngering his hoass. Sci
entists who have visited Darlington to
investigate the discovery estimate that
the tusk must be about 16 feet long and
the whole skeleton 80 feet long and lS TO
20 feet high. A small chip from the tusk
was sent to New York scientist and he
prouounces it the purest ivory. A rich
mineral spring has burst from the rock
just above the tusk. There are many
evidences of glacial action around OAR

!. Immense Mound OF Human Bones.

s CooKsoN, NEB., February l6.-A
queer find has been made in Dakota,
about twenty five miles from this place,
by party of hunters who have been in
that section for the past month. The
county over which they have travelled
is little used except for cattle ranges, and
the result is that there are few people
who pass over that vicinity. The gen
tlemen who bring the rews of the find
say that they have discovered an i'm
mense mound which was composed en-.
tirely Of human bonea.
i The bones bad evidently been there for
many years, probably hundreds of them,
for the Indians who live in that part o!
the country say they know nothing Of
where they came from, excep. that their
tribes have legends that there was big
fight there long ago and great many
people killed.
The legend is that one tribe was com.
pletely annihilated by another, and the
remnant Of the victorious tribe was com.
PEELED to join, another tribe in order to
keep from being destroyed BY Che
stronger nations. The IDdians do not
know what tribes INDUCED in the desper-
ate; ;fght, but from the number Of bones
TO be found and the sizs Of the mound
there could not have been less than ten
thousand people Filled and buried in the
mound, which Is fully fifty yards in cir
conference.
"a peculiarity about the place isithat
while there is not a tree within fifty miles
of the mound there is a lotcf ashes and
charred wood to be found all through the
dirt which composes the mound. To
make this fire either the wool must have
been carried fifty miles or else the 6ze
was built 40 long ago that the whole
country has changed, and where there
was formerly trees growing j. now des
olate prairie.

The Way to Learn.

HWell, ] think that / would not sit
there deliberately, as you did, and say
didn't know simple thing like that.
The idea! It is perfectly ridiculous v'
q would-be smart young lady declared
to matron with whom she was on very
intimate terms.
"What would you do, my dear ?" said
the other.
''Do2" was the reply, II would keep
still if I didn't know, and not frankly
confess my ignorance"
swell, that's where you and I differ"
said the elder lady. IT never expect to
see the time when I will be too old or too
wise to learn some new thing every day.
I think, of all the follies in life, the mos,
foolish folly is to think one should know
everything. Ihave heard elderly men,
with great reputation for wisdom, declare
that they often felt humiliated when
they realized how little they knew. as.
sure you, my dear, that if your life is
spared until you are three quarters of a
century old, you will often find yourself
covered with humility at the things you
don't know. The wisest way is to learn
early in life that no human being can
know everything; therefore, never be too
silly or too proud to ask what you wish
to know, and frankly to confess your ig-
norance of things with which you are
not familiar. No sensible person will
respect you less for it, and wise people
will value your opinion much more when
they find that your utterance5 are based
upon actual knowledge, and that you are
not afraid or ashamed to admit that you
do not know"

At a big cattle sale in Kansas City

- at big cattle sale in Kansas City
recently, said to be the largest in. that city
since the boom times of 1882 and 1888,
the Waddingham-Bell Ranch Cattle
Company, of New Mexico, sold 1000
two-year-old steers at S15 a head and 1000
three-year-old steers at $40 head. The
ranch company owns 100000 acres of
land.
= An Ohio paper tells story Of two
young girls who were recently travelling
on train in that State. AS the train
stopped at station, two ladies entered
and took seats in front of them then a
stout old lady came forward and greeted
them and kept upa lively conversation
until the train started. Then one Of the
two said "Sit down here near us, and
tell those girls to sit somewhere else"
So the old lady turned and said in freez-
ing tones "I wish to converse with my
friends, and would like that seat. I am
Mrs. President r. of this road" The
girls stared at her an instant, then one of
drawIed: "Fleesed to meet you, Pm
sure. Isupposo you know that I am
Mrs. President Harrison, of Washing
tom" The other girl settling herself
comfortably in her seat, said, tAnd am
Mrs. Queen Victoria" Neither of them
moved, and Mrs. President r. had to go
back to her own seat.
- There is class Of people who pride
themselves on their honesty and frank
ness because, as they tell us, they "say
just what they think" throwing out
their opinions right and left just as they
happen to feel, no matter where they
may strike or whom they may wound.
This boasted frankness, however, is not
honesty, but is rather miserable imper.
tinence and reckless cruelty. We have
DO right to say what we think unless we
think kindly and lovingly; no right to
unload our jealousies, envies, bad hu-
mors and miserable spites upon the
hearts of our neignbors. If we must be
bad tempered we should at least keep
our ugliness locked up in our own breasts
and not let it out to wound the feelings
and mar the happiness of others. If we
must speak ont our dislike and preju-
dices and wretched feelings, let US 60 into
our own room and lock the door and
close the windows, so that no ear but
our own shall hear the hateful words.
If any man seemeth to be religious or
even morally decent, and bridleth not
his tongue, that mans religion is vain
| and his character is unprincipled and
base.
- The Nashville Christian advocate
soys: "Itis g common notion among
che intelligent northern people that prior
to the civil war the South was dominated
by close corporation Of aristocrats, the
vast body of the people being refused all
participation in the function of govern
ment. The facts were all against this
view. 1t is utterly inconsistent with
cases like those of Joseph E. Brown, of
Georgia, Andrew Johnson Of Tennessee,
and Jas. L. Orr of South Carolina. Here
are three men-and we might multiply
The number indefnitely-who came
from the humblest walks Of life, and yet
pushed themselves forward till they
were controlling factors in the civil life
of their respective commonwealth.

A Girl who can Shoot.

'sIn my recent trip to New Mexico
in the interest of the Omaha
Stock Exchange, I witnessed an act of
heroism that I shall never forget" said
w. F. Skinner.
"The central figure was a beautiful and
refined young lady, the daughter of a
banker, who owns extensive cattle
ranches in northern New Mexico. Dur
ing the vacations she had passed on the
ranch she had acquired wonderful pro-
ficiency with the rifle, and could shoot
with the accuracy of an old ranchman.
"One day we were startled by seeing a
cinnamon bear, and large one at that,
near the edge Of gully but short dis
lance from the house. Both father and
daughter rushed for their rifles and made
for the ravine. The wild beast was on the
opposite side and unable to get at US.
The banker in his excitement got too
close to the edge of the ravine and tum-
bled in, falling distance of twelve or fif-
teen feet. He lay stunned by the force OF
the fall, and we feared he had been seri-
ously hurt.
SIN another second down tumbled
bruin into the gully, whether intention
ally or accidentally I don't know. But
the awful danger Of my host Immediately
flashed upon me. BE was too stunned tc
help himself and the savage beast, infuri'
ated by the pain of his fall, rushed toward
the PROSTATE man. was frozen with
horror. In twinkling I heard the re.
port of rifle at my side, and the beal
dropped dead almost on the helpless form
of the banker. l turned and saw my fail
companion just dropping her rifle from
her shoulder. Her face was pale, but hel
eyes lit up with o look Of mingled joy and
triumph. She had saved her father from
terrible death by her presence of mine
and unerring aim" ."--Omaha Bee.
