On Thursday last ms James Nc
Clnre was excavating some large stones
on the farm of Frank Monroe, near
Atlanta, to be used on the county
building site, he unearthed large one
parts of which looked like man. He
secured assistance, uncovered the
stone and found q complete petrified
man. The man was 81 inches in length
(snall man for Montnorency county,
must have been urported,) and in per-
feet condition. The hair had all dis.
appeared but otherwise everything
seems perfect. The color of the face
is dark and there is no doubt the
freak is an Indian who died years ago.
Very conclusive as to nativity, but
are you sure it was dead7) The body
has been brought to Atlanta and ID
now lying in the BACK room of Mr..
Volts store. Lesoiston Journal.

Norman Pike, a farmer living
about four miles northwest of Gay
lord had a rather rough experience
recently at the hands of local hood
lums. He and his family are inof-
fensive and hard working people,
but they gained the enmity of some
one. Their potatoe vines have been
pulled up and their apple trees wan
tony despoiled of fruit. On Tues
day night a load of buckshot was fir
ed through the window, narrowly
missing Mr.. Pixies head. All the
windows in the house were after
wards broken.-Ex.

THE SLOW STEAMSHIP.

Some OF the Advantages 1t Possesses Over
~ the Ocean Greyhound.
The slower-going steamer, say Of
three hundred to three hundred and
fifty miles day, has decided advan-
tages over the racer. To attain high
speed enormous propelling power is re-
quired, and the ocean greyhound is
like a great machine shop, the pulsa-
tions Of the machinery Earring every
portion of the boat. To double the
speed, says the Baltimore Sun, Of
vessel at sea, the power must be cubed.
! The vessel to pillow through the water
at twenty-four miles per hour must
displacs twice as much water in an
hour as it does when going at twelve
miles per hour. That would re 1uire
twice the power. But in addition to
this the water must be displaced in
half the time and that requires the
power to be doubled again. So that q
vessel which would consume five tons
OF coal in an hour going at the rate Of
twelve miles. would consume. all other
conditions being equal. twenty tons
per hour If the speed is increased to
twenty-four miles. After all there are
attractions in the old style of going to
sea, with its leisurely gait. its perfect
rest, its absolute change from all the
conditions OF life on land. which are
superior, in the judgment of many peo-
pie, to the five or six days of hotel life
between New York and Liverpool on
one of the liners"
