REMAINS OF A MASTODON

Found on the Verdlgrls River In the Cher
'kee Nation.
J. Mackey has a curiosity in the
shape of a skull which he found the
other day on the Virdigris river north
of TeXanna in the Cherokee country.
1t appears to be the skull of some ex-
tinct species of animal shaped very
much like that of a COW, but is tre-
mendous in size, measuring three
feet from root TO root of the horns
One of the horns is yet unbroken and
is twelve inches in circumference The
only tooth remaining intact in the
great jawbo weighed nine pounds.
Several parts of the vast skeleton we're
exposed by the late floods in the Yer
digris, but they were too heavy to
bring away. The shoulder blade has
protruded above the sands of the river
for years, but passers by considered it
as merely an ordinary boulder and its
true nature remained undiscovered
until few days since when nearly all
of the parts Of the mammoth thing
were unearthed.
