Indians Buried Long Ago.
OZARK. Mo. Feb. 26. There is a little
cave i'll the bluffs of Finley creek, about
two miles north of Ozark which Bruce
McCord was cleaning ont for cellar.
Under LAYER of limestone and beneath
about six inches of earth he found two
human skeletons, one measuring feet
in length The skull was of gigantic
size and very thick. The bones were
all in place and well preserved, appar-
emily. though they soon crum BILE to
pieces when exposed to the air.
The other skeleton was of ordinary
size and lay near the bed of the larger
one. 1t is supposed that the skeletons
are Indian remains. The Delaware In
dams had n large burying ground on
Finley creek, two miles west OF Ozark,
and many bones and other relics have
been found in this locality.

NEWSI APER LAWS.
YEAR.

The following are the laws laid
down by the u nited States govern
ment for the protection OF news
papers:
"If subscribers order the discon-
tiauance of their periodicals, the
publisher may continue to send
them until arrcarages are paid.
If subscribers move to other
places without informing the pub
fishers, and their paper ia sent to
the former place they are held re-
sp0nsible.
The courts have decided that re-.
fuslng to take periodicals from Of.
fee before removing and leaving
them uncalled for is prima facia
evidence of intentional fraud.
If subscribers pay in advance
they are bound TO give notice to
the publisher at the expiration of
.Leir time if they do not wish to
continue taking it; otherwise the
publisher is authorized to send 1t
on and subscribers will be respOn.
si'ble until an express order to dis.
continue the paper with payment
of allls sent to the publisher.
Publishers of newspapers can
under law, arrest any man for
fraud who takes q newspaper and
refuses 10 pay for it. Under this
law it is a dangerous trick for .
man to allow his subscription sc.
count to run ON from six months

The favorite shopping bag for both
young and elderly women who like some
receptacle for handkerchief, memoranda
and the trifles accumulated in shopping
is one Of rich black brocade or heavy
corded silk. lined and drawn up on a
shirrstring. Often such bags of black
satin are entirely covered by a second
bag made from joining many brass rings
that have first been covered with black
twist in double crochet stitch. Some
times band or wide border of these
rings joined together covers the upper
part of the bag only. Out of this style
of decoration has grown one of the dec
orative novelties of the day, which is
very popular in Europe. and which is
just coming into use here. 1t consists of
cardboard molds that are slightly raised.
covered with silk or linen thread in a
simple crochet stitch.
The molds come in the shape of cir
cles. ovals. squares and hearts in leaf
and in conventionalized flower form.
Often the crochet work is made more
elaborate by edging each form with a
puzzled border, like the lacy loops seen in
tatting. The centers of the forms may
be filed out with crocheted chain OF
stitches, CT with fancy embroidery and
lace stitches done in silk or in gold
thread. st. Louis Republic.

4 One Of the most interesting events In
the sporting record OF the year was ac
complished by Mr.. Fred Wishaw. an
English bicyclist. who recently distanced
FIVE large gray wolves in the district OF
Pakoff Ia Russia. We ought TO say that
herd Of elk coming along just as Mr.
Wishaw's bike" ran into snowdrift
the Ave large gray wolves left OIL chas-
ing Mr.. Wishaw and proceeded TO chase
the elk so that. speaking with strict tech
meal accuracy. the pursuers saved thom
selves from the record.
Nevertheless they were distanced. for
Mr. Wishaw states that when the five
large gray wolves hove in sight he was 10
miles from the city OF Lavrik. and be
calculated that he could cover the dis.
lance In % minutes. As he was so yards
ahead Of the wolves when the elk came
In. Mr.. Wishaw distanced them as long
as there was any race. We fear that the
Russian wolves are not what they were
for in old times the story always ended
