the blue clay along Rock creek he
accidentally found Il gigantic thigh

by digging several feet deep, he
has found many huge hones-the

These animals must have gone
there for sulphur and salt, become

died must have decayed ON the

packed in this sticky clay, AS
/ perfectly as the china which the
Chinese keep for centuries packed
in a similar blue clay. When
taken out these bones look as oily
and slick as if they had been
polished and vanished. The
bones are grayisi brown in color
and are plainly distinguishable
/ from the enamel OF the teeth and

teeth found are still in the great

weigh five and six pounds. A tusk
weighs about two hundred. pounds

Broken pieces of ivory tusks are

A Parting of the Mays.

SINCE the Democratic National
Convention which declared that
the leading issue with the party
was the re establishment Of bimet-
allism through the free and un!im-
tied coinage of silver at the fixed
ratio Of 16 to l was held. there has
been a wide divergence of opinion
between the three men who came
prominently before that convention
in connection with the presidential
nomination.
The three men who figured in
the Chicago convention as candi-
dates for the nomination were
Bland, Boise and Bryan. Each
was ready to accept the nomina-
tion on a platform which made an
unequivocal declaration for silver.
yet Bryan, the successful candi-
date, is the only one of the three
who still adheres to the original in
tent of the platform. The other
two, Bland and Boise, are at oppo-
site antipodes from the question.
Boise some time ago declared
that fixed coinage ratio between
silver and gold could not be sus-
tanned by the United States alone
as long as gold was the standard of
value throughout the commercial
world, and unless the party de-
parted from the idea of an arbitra-
ry coinage ratio, it would founder
upon the rock of Is to 1. Mr..
Boise still claims to be biinetal
list, but his recent opinions have
estranged him from the ultra white
metal wing of the Democratic
party.
Mr.. Bland, who, it may be said
is the originator of the 16 to
theory, has also expressed opinions
lately not at all in harmony witt
his former views or the dogma o
the Chicago platform. His recen
expressions SAVIOR more of green
backism than of bimetallism, ant
if he is sincere his convictions mus
truly have undergone radica
change since be was candidate
before the Chicago convention.

THE Democratic papers are
pointing in derision at the Ding'ey

as a revenue raiser have not been
fulfilled. Before another six

from what two or three months
ago was expected. Exports Of
merchandise continue to be large,
though at this time they are not as
great as they were twelve months
ago. Imports are also below last
years figures but the difference
here is only trifiing. In October
the exports exceeded the imports
to the extent of S63, 900. 900, while
the net importation Of gold in that
month was S11. 100000. As the

growing rapidly ever since the
end of June, when the heavy in

rates of the Dingley tariff stopped.
the amount due the United States

seem to be very large by this time.

failure of gold to be drawn in this
direction in heavier amounts is that
large quantities of American secur-

Was wrecked at Blodgett's Mills at 1915
o'clock this morning The train consisted
of an express car, combination baggage
and smoking car, day coach and a Pull
man parlor car. The train, which does not
stop at Blodgett's Mills, was passing at the
rate of forty-five miles per hour on a
straight track. When about 500 feet north
of the station the rear truck of the day
coach in some unexplained manner became
detached and left the rails. This truck
knocked all of the trucks from under the
parior car, which, after being dragged a
few rods was turned on its side in four
foot ditch. The rest of the train was
dragged 450 feet further and thrown against
the icehouse of the milk station, after
which it struck the passenger station,
knocking it from it's foundation. When the
engineer finally succeeded in stopping the
train it was found that Mrs. j. II. McQuil-
Ian, of Overlook, Pa, a suburb of Phila.
delpha, had been killed and a number Of
others injured. Messengers were sent to
Cortland for physicians, who went to the
scene of the wreck by special train. The
