RELICS OF A HY-eoNE AGE.
Tho Bed OF q Great Lake Found In . To-
ledo Excavation,

ledo Excavation.
The excavations for the foundation of
the National Union building on Huron
street near Adams, Toledo, bring, to
light the relics of a by-gone age, and
furnish plenty Of food for, study and
contemplation on the part of the geolo-
gist- To commence with, this is the
deepest foundation ever put under q
building in the city. The practice'here-
tofore has been to level the earth off
enough to make a good basement and
then drive piling for the foundation
stones to rest upon. In the case of the
National Union building it was deter
mined to have no pile foundation but to
dig down into the bowels Of the earth
until terra ;firma was found. William
Spear received the contract for putting
down the foundation and started q
large force of men at work q few deys
ngo on the excavation. When the
shovClcrs got down about eighteen feet
below the level of the street, or about
nine feet below the surface of the nat
ural earth, they struck n vein of sand.
1t was found necessary to put eribbinS
in to keep the sand from, rushing in.
After digging a few inches deeper it
was found that it was genuine lake
of river sand and gravel. AS it was
thrown out and carefully examined, it
contained traces of an age Of vcgcta-
tion, anterior to the days of the landing
Of "Cotti:fbus Large walnuts, butter
nuts, hickory nuts, shells and impress
sions of water species of various kinds
were found in the, sand, also trees and
vegetable remains.
Hundreds of people saw the strange
and mysterious things hidden for centu-
ries few feet below the surface. The
opinion of all present, according to the
Blade, was that old Lake Erie at one
time rolled and tossed in all its gran
dcur and fury over the very spot where
an immense temple is about to be
erected as a monument of charity to
the widows and orphans. The sand is
purely lake sand and gravel and every
one who has made any study of the
strata OF the earth claims that n large
river or lake ut one time existed over
the very spot where the foundation is
being put down. The indications are.
that the body of water was not O river,
for the sand is too deep and compact,
and resembles the bottom of the lake
where sand is taken from for building
purposes, MIR. Spear says that, he hus
put in many foundations, but never
struck anything like it before. 1t is
claimed that similar vein was struck
several years ago while q sewer YVES
being built In Che rear of st. Patri2lts
institute, but the sewer diggers, knew
nothing about geology and did not give
the matter moments attention. Fol-
lowing this location it would show that
all that portion of Toledo along Six
teerth street, extending to the river in
both directions, was at one time the bed
of Lake Erie or some other equally
large body of water. :. a:... Z

THE HEIRS OF BRADLEY HOUSE" is
the title of a book written by Amanda M.
Douglass and published by Lee and
Shepard, Boston. 1t is a strong and at
tractive story, on the whole, and contains
not a few passages which will especially
hold the interest of the reader. The
heroine is Regina Halford, member of
family who, living in ordinary circunl-
stances discover that they are heirs to
part of a large estate, and ere long
find themselves occupants of bradley
House" Their experiences therein, the
appearance of other heirs and consequent
turns of the wheel of fortune, with the
unfortunate matrimonial escapade of
Regina sister, Perdita, furnish abundant
material for the author to work upon,
and she tells the story interestingly. A
prominent figure is that of Norman
Winterburne, who, set aside by Regina
in the days when fortune seemed afar off,
re-appears as one of the heirs of Bradley
house, proves himself made of the right
sort of stuff and succeeds in winning the
love of the cold, stately Regina. The
story is not without its dark chapters,
and these are furnished by the career of
Jasper Bradley, who tries his hand at
crime in order to bring disaster upon the
Halfords in revenge for Regina's rejection
of his suit. The character of Perdita
serves as an example of what misplaced
love may lead to, and the reader will not
fail to sympathize with the too-confiding
maiden. The outcome of the story will
prove wholly satisfactory to the admirers
of Winterburne and the Halfords, and
the volume is well worth reading. For
sale at A. D. Rowell's.
"THE GnEAD GUARDS" is a story of
war times in a New England town, by
Mrs. o. w. Scott, who was formerly
Lucy A. Jameson of Irasburg, VT. 1t is
published by Hunt and Eaton, New
York. Gilead is rural locality where,
in 1862, as the story goes, the patriotic
spirit finally develops and a goodly num-
Der of young men shoulder their muskets
and 60 to fight for the flag. The man
ner in which the community was wrought
up to the proper pitch is related with
loyal sense of appreciation on the part
of the author, and the entire book is
readable, bringing wildly to mind the
sacrifices made in those dark days.
Prominent characters in the story are
