i Found in Two Large Burial Places in Ne
braska-Men OF Great Stature.
A farmer blowing near Calhoun, Neb.
recently turned up human skull, and
search revealed large number Of
other skulls, besides bones. ThcsS
| relics were those of powerful race,
| and who they were is unknown. The
skulls are large, but the forehead is
| extremely low. An Omaha World-He
aid reporter visited the place, and
measurement was taken of one of til
lower jaws found and compared wit
the dimensions taken OF one of tha
men on the field. The relics jaw was
| found to be an inch larger each way.
in proportion, than that of the persos
whose measurement had been taken
although he was six feet three inche
in height, weighed nearly two hur
dred pounds and had unusually larrs
jaws. The measurement of the lower
maxillary found is as follows: Depth
four inches; width of the upper ex
tremities, five and half inches; widtl
inside measure from wisdom tooth TO
wisdom tooth, two and a fourth inches:
total length of jaw, five and fourth
inches. The upper was fully as large.
while the teeth resembled those of
cow more than those of a human be-
ing. They were badly worn and would
go to show that the owner ate meat.
presumably buffalo, great deal. A
dentist when shown the teeth said that
they were much larger than any of
those of white person living in this
age.
a theory advanced is that these are
the remains of some Mandan Indians,
who were the earliest settlers of this
part of the country, but were ulti-
mately eXterminated by the Sioux
The size of these bones would explode
this theory, however, as the Mandans
were not large race. Another theory
is that they are, perhaps, the remains
OF northwestern Indians who were
killed by another tribe. This tribe
were large in stature, according to ira
dition, many being six feet and more
in height.
The reporter found about fifty feet
from the location of this trench an
other in which were buried the remains
of five grown persons and one infant.
A spade piled to the earth soon brought
to view the remains of six human
beings These skulls were smaller
and not of such extraordinary think !
ness as those exhumed from the first
trench. They also bore the appearance |
of having lain in the ground for a longer
period. as they would crumble apart of
their own weight, while those first dis
covered were in fair state of preser-
walton. The cavities of the skulls had
become filled with dirt, and it was only
with great care in handling that very
fair specimen was preserved. The
trench was only three feet square and
about two feet deep. In order to place
a human body into SO small a grave it
must have been fearfully mutilated.
When found the arms were over the
head. while the tibia and fibia were
found under all The skulls were
also found in different positions, some
being straight up and down, while 9th
srs were lying face up and some with
5he face down.
No pottery, metal or the like was
ound by which they could be classed

AT first sight it may seem very cruel,
but Brazil did right in refusing the
cholera ship Carlos permission to enter
any Brazilian port. A ship-of-war warned
her Off and sent her TO sea again with her
terrible aftiiction. That is also the policy
of Spain, and it ought to be ours. The
simple question is, shall millions of lives
be posed to pestilence, or few dozen
lives retained in the peril of an infected
ship? Quarantine is by no means as
surance of immunity, and while an in
fected ship ought to be allowed to land
her patients somewhere, it should be
upon an island, or some similar spot pro-
vided so remote from centers OF popula-

will decline instead of advance, and the
price of all commodities will be advanced
to rate designed to compensate the de-
probation of the currency in which pur-
chases are to be made. The gold standard
is verify, and no legislation devised by
men can repeal it. The parity of sixteen
to one measured the relative ease with
which the two metals might be obtained.
The relation between the cost of produc-
ing the two metals changed and with it a
new parity came into being. The fiction
that sixteen to one was the true parity
had lost its force and silver was circulat-
ing at discount.
The Act, of which so much has been
complained, demonetizing silver was
simply a recognition of the fact that the
old parity of value could no longer be
maintained for silver. There are
numerous fallacies underlying the
contention of the silver men, the
most prominent of which is that the
parity of value between two metals
derived from the earth is subject simply
to the will of a Government. The second
is that stamped declaration upon coin
coniers value upon it; that to declare on a
piece of metal its value by stamp is the
equivalent of conferring value. All the
experience of men and nations contra
aioto thaoo
cannot be established by law, and the
relative value of a circulating medium
which circulstes only because of the in-
trinsic value of it's bullion is not subject
to the will Of nations. The silver theorists
appear to learn nothing by experience.
The fictitious market for $4,000 ounces
per month sent silver down to about
tifty-eight cents per ounce, the lowest
quotation it has reached in centuries.
We freely admit that the free coinage of
silver will send the price Of all commod-
tiles up, except such as find their prin-
cipal market in foreign countries. No
better evidence of the fallacy of any ar
gument can be had than its appeal to the
prejudices of the masses of men. The cry
that silver is the poor mans money is of
itself an evidence of the weakness of its
cause. The only money that does not
cheat the poor man is honest money.
With the free coinage OF silver all species
of property in the United States will ad-
vance, but labor will not keep pace with
it. Labor is the last thing to respond to
the changed conditions which initiate the
value of property. The fuctuation of
value in the circulating medium is the
opportunity of the rich. The noisy dema-
gogues, who hail chiefly from the silver
producing States, have made silver
cheaper with each device adopted for the
artificial promotion Of its value.
The record-union., 1893-08-30

The House has voted by an unexpected
large majority for the repeal of the silver
purchasing clause of the Sherman bill,
downing the free-coinage people on all
contests, and pronouncing the policy of
the country through the representative
branch Of the National Legislature to be
Enthusiastically opposed to the extreme
silver proposition. That the Wilson bill
will pass the Senate is certain, but with
no such celebrity nor comparatively by
such broad margin of ayes. We look
upon the passage Of the bill as a reflection
of the best Intelligence and the financial
wisdom of the country.

Xanla ana W. y. Q. ID. mines, west by the
Wyoming and Lawrey claims.
ON the ground is an incline shaft on the lode
24O feet in depth The ledge in the bottom OF
this shaft will average about two and halt
Ieet IN width, and is splendid milling ore
There are $50 feet OF stopingS or backs un-
worked. An investment IN this property is
really no speculation. The ore in sight and
the certain indications of continuation of
the pay chute puts it beyond the pale OF doubt
a pay ing investment from the start and when

Inc mine has not been worked since S66.
previous TO which date $50 600 in gold was
extracted by the expensive methods of that
time
When this mine was worked in early days a
single blast threw down 81 900 worth OF
beautiful specimen ore. 1he poorest rock
ever hauled rom the mine paid $50 per load;
the highest $500 per load. AS IS Well known
to many Of the older residents of Grass
Valley, a single specimen from this mine was
valued AT over $1,000. The most Of the gold
from the mine was obtained by crushing the
specimens In hand mortar. There is no wa
ter to contend with except the surface water
Tne par value of capital of the corporation
Is 100000, divided into 1OO,O shares, of

to the purchaser. Temporary certificates will

Ii Is an assured fact that the amount raised
by sale OF the stock will be amply sufficient to
develop the mine and place it upon a divi-
