PHILADELPHIA'S SKELETON.
Bones of an Extinct Animal I'm
earthed in q Quarry.

"A skeleton NOT unlike a IldIn1lOlll,
and very much unlike any of the ami
mails Of the present day indigenous to
this region, has been unearthed in West
Philadelphia. The scientists in the Wis
tar Institute of the University of Penn
sylvania are now making an investi-
cation, in hopes of definitely fixing the
age, origin and species Of the strange
specimen.
The skeleton was unearthed April
9th by workmen at Pernberton's stone
quarry at Fifty-ffth street and Wyal.
using avenue. The men had put in a
big blast, and after the smoke had
cleared away they found a most curious
state of affairs. The stone bank that
had been disturbed evidently formed
the front wall of a cave that ran back
underground some thirty feet, says the
Philadelphia Inquirer"
The walls of the cavern had been per-
fectly formed In the center of the pit
stood a skeleton. 1t was larger than
that of any animal the men had seen.
Four great tuSkS stood out from the
bony jaw, and some of the teeth that
stood in two well-formed grinning rows
were six inches in length. The smallest
tooth was two and one-half inches in
length and about an inch square. Most
of the bones were in a perfect state of
preservation. Near the skeleton was
what looked like a human skull.
The bones were taken out and put in
a pile. Unfortunately no guard was
placed over them, and crowds of peo-
pie who visited the spot on Sunday
carried many Of the bones away as
relics.
When DR.. Milton Greeman, curator
of the Water Institute, visited the
cave yesterday several important bones
were missing. What was left of the
skeleton was, however, taken to the
institute for investigation. DR.. Gree
man said that in many respects the an
imal looked like a rhinoceros. The for
nation Of the head was not unlike that
of large bear. AS the bones lay yes
terday 1T was almost impossible to say
whether they belonged to one or more
animals. But the men who saw the
skeleton first are positive that there
was only one. DR.. Greeman thinks the
animal too small and too young to
have been a mastodon. The bones were
not over 400 or 500 years old. The
skull that was found near by was evil
IDENTIFY that of an Indian.
The rocks in the neighborhood of the
quarry are Of limestone formation.

BOY DROWNED.
NJ. j. Burke's Son Loses His Life
While Bathing.

Henry Burke, the fourteen-year-old
son of NJ. J. Burke, an employe of the
Southern Pacific Company's black
smithing department, was drowned yes
terday in one of the sloughS beyond the
north levee, near the Twelfth street
road.
He and a companion named Shaw
went over there to battle, and they
finally got beyond their depth. The
Shaw boy managed to get out, but his
companion went down and was drowned.
At last accounts last evening the body
had not been recovered, but it may
have been later on, as the slough is not
very deep and there is no current.
Never a summer passes that boys are
not drowned in some of these treacher-
Gus sloughs or the river but as boys
will go a-swimming, these fatalities are
certain to occur.

stration in Barcelona, Spain. In
the afternoon of that day there
were Is, 900 people present at a
meeting addressed by orators who
abused the Americans. This fired
the mob and they immediately set
out for the American consulate in
spite Of the effo It's of their leaders
to detain them. Arriving there
they began to howl against Ameri-
ca and for their native country.
This did not long satisfy them and
they began to throw stones at the
building, breaking several win
dows. At this iuncture the police
interfered and drove back the mob,
wounoing several. Students tore
up many American flags that they
found IN the town and altogether
they had high old time abusing
America by proxy.
