PREHISTORIC RELIC.

Piece of Stone with a Well-Formed Screw
Embedded In 1t.
Willard Tyler, who lives in Plain
township, Wayne county, O., near the
famous Fort hill, we'll known to an
thropologists andscientists, has recent
ly discovered a remnant of the prehis-
toric age that is clearly out of the or
binary.
Young Tyler is very much interest
ed III relics. His father owns Fort hill.
The brow of the hill is indented with
a deep ridge or trench, and above the
trench many wonderful specimens of
bygOne ages have been discovered. Re-
Gently Prof. BUSHNELL of Mansfield, O.,
in eXcavating on the hill dug up the
skeleton of a man which measured
seven feet in length, and, from its sur
roundings and the implements found
with it, evidently belonged to an age
that antedated the races in prehistoric
America.
Tyler's recent find is simple piece
of crustation or mari or petrified clay.
This of itself is not so remarkable, but
it contains imbedded in it a perfect
screw-slaped formation. The threads
and core are visible and strongly
marked, and are of such nature that

there can be no doubt the object was
placed in position before petrification
set in.
The formation indicates plainly that
the race which was on earth when the
implement was used must have known
of mechanical methods similar in a GER
tain extent to those of the present day.
AS all the discoveries heretofore made
in this place are of date that was be-
fore the mound builders, a very inter-
esting question is developed in the
find. Mr.. |. r. Davis, of Chicago, now
has it in his possession.
Electricity In the Air.
The old saying: ''Thunder-clouds
clear the atmosphere" was evidently
based on scientific observations 1t is
said that the electric fluid called light
ming is, in its passage through the air,
an invaluable sanitary agent. Where
ever it cleaves its way, it burns up an
immense amount of dust and floating
matter, and this rids the atmosphere of
much that is INJURIOUS, and in this way
much more healthful conditions are as
sured. The possibilities of the air as a
storage battery for electricity are re-
ceiving a good deal of attention, and it
is hoped that experiments now in pro.
gress may enable us to utilize the light
| ming in various ways. A few sparks
gathered during thunderstorm
| cleared the dust and smoke-laden air in
a glass jar, and if there can be some
thing devised to control the more in
tense flashes, we may be able to harness:
the lightning to our street lamps and
tax the elements to furnish us with

HOMES OF NEVADA.
A Popular Senator's Entomology Scientific
ioally Considered.

4 tCdliN
In Senator j. p. Jones we have, ac-
eording to the chronological journal,
an organization of n mellow, respon-
sive and emotional type. We see here
strong indications of the maternal in
fluence in the heredity. The rear OF
the crown is comparatively low. Those
qualities of masculine pride which we
pointed out in the first subject are here
decidedly lacking II will also he OBJ
served that the indications of feminiLi-
ty are present in the nose and eye.
The latter stands ont at great dis
lance beyond the bone of the cheek,
and when we consider that the tenn
permanent is warm and impulsive, we
may be sure that we are in the presence
OF an orator of uncommon ability. This
man will be not only fluent in the use
of words, but they will pour out with
a warmth and enthusiasm which will
win admiration if they do not produce
conviction. The right side of the fore
head forms almost a vertical line, ex-
tending to the inferior edge of the up
per eyelid. This fattened external
angle is an almost infallibl, evidence
of deficient order. The eye appears
more like a continuation of the fore
head than an independent structure;
so that, if the eyebrows were shaved
off, in dim light one might be in
clined to look for them on the line of
the eyelashes
There is here a fine development of
the frontal lobes. The forehead is we'll
filed out in the central region, which
shows literary memory in other re-
spects than talent for words. This gen.
tleman will be brilliant in the matter
of history. He should be a capital
story teller. His upper forehead also
shows great suavity-that primary
mental quality which prompts to a
smooth, persuasive, conciliatory form
of address, whether the subject in it.
self is agreeable or not. In this por-
trait there seems to be also fine indi-
dication of benevolence. Altogether
the character is eminently adapted to
a diplomatic career in the public serv-
ice, or to those literary professions
which would afford an opportunity for
the display of oratorical talent and the
exercise of all the social graces.

AROUND THE EAST SIDE,
THRIVING AND BEAUTIFUL
PART OF THE CITY.
Active Business, Substantial Improve.
ments and Handsome Park-Alert
Business Men Making
Fine Suburb.

There is no section Of Los Angeles
that is making more progress than East
Los Angeles, generally known as the
East Side.
The progress in that part OF the city
during the past few years has been very
great.
Owing to the fact that it possesses a
number of bright, progressive citizens.
they have easily kept in touch with the
march OF events, and the results are
seen in handsome, well-paved streets,
fine water and sewer facilities, and a
generally thrifty appearance that charms
the eye and makes it one of the most
desirable sections OF the city in which
to live.
During the past year there have been
many substantial Improvements on the
East Side. Numerous new residences
have gone up, and the East Side park
has been greatly beautifed.
This is one of the prettiest little parks
in the whole city, and the citizens are
particularly proud OF il.
They insisted ON their share OF work
being done upon it, and, in view OF the
limited amount that could be COM
manded, the improvement in its appear
ance has been remarkable.
William Lacy, Joseph Mesmer, Coun-
Gilman MeKell, Supervisor Hanley,
George w. Stockwell and William ].
Washburn are few of the leading and
progressive citizens who have done much
to further the interests of the East side.
They have an independent board of
trade, which takes live part in all mat
ters affecting the interests of the sec
ton, and it has accomplished much dur
ing its existence.
Downsy avenue, which runs through
the entire length of the East side, is q
broad and handsome thoroughfare, and
one who has not been through its
various streets cannot know what
number of charming homes and quiet,
shady streets there are in this part OF
Los Angeles.
1t is essentially a place of homes, but
its business interests are quite large and
there are a number OF very solid busi-
ness houses theresbouts.
The East side is very we'll connected
with the main city by street railroad
facilities, having both cable and electric
service.
Altogether 1t is one of the most de-
lightfuf residence parts of the entire
city, and there is every reason to believe
that it's progress the coming year will be
greater than ever before.

WALLACE WON.
AN EXCITING OOURSING EVENT
YESTERDAY.
Nsssor's Conchita Belle and Tonne
macher's Wallsce Have an Tx
citing Contest 1t Long
Reach.

The coursing match between G. ].
Nessor's Conchita Belle and Julius Tom
nemacher's Wallace took place at Long
Beach yesterday. The match was best
tive courses out Of three, for $50, and az
Conchita Belle had won the l6-dog
coursing match given by the Los Angeles
Coursing club ON Thanksgiving day, the
present match was looked upon not only
as settling the question as to which was
the superior dog of the two, but also as
settling the vexed question as to which
dog was entitled 10 the premiership Of
Southern California.
Such a momentous result naturally
created intense excitsment in local
coursing circles, and the morning train
to Long Beach was packed with cours-
ing men eager TO witness the contest.
MIR. Patsy Parrell offieiatsd in the diff
cult role of Judge. Manuel Gotta was
slinnar of the first course and Julius
Tonnemaeher slipper OF the ssSoGss
course.
In the first course Conchita Belle had
slightly the advantage in getting from
the slips but in long run failed to in
crease the lead. The jack was strong
and swift and led the hounds q long
race. Fully three miles had been Gov
cred before any sppreciable change in
the position of the hounds took place,
and then it was seen thai Wallace was
gaining on the Belle; few turns were
made without points being scored to the
advantage of either side, after which
Conchita Belle slowing up allowed Wal.
lace to pass her and score kill, gaining
J the first course.
The second course was short and de-
cisive. Conehita Belle again took the
lead from the slips bnt could not stand
the terrific pace set by the hare. Wal.
lace passed her, scoring a go-by, and
with grand burst Of speed caught the
hare, scoring an easy kill, thereby win
ming the second course and the match.
The next regular meeting Of the cours-
ing club will take place Friday, January
18th, and an interesting programme oi
coursing events will then bs slled.
