BIG Mnste1en Tasks FRem ALASKA.
A prospector who came from the gold
Gelds Of Alaska brought number d
curious relics Of that faraway REGION.
The most interesting Of the collection &
sset Of ivory tusl,s Of enormous are. the
remains Of . mastodon. A great tooth
was also found with the tnsks, which
were discovered in q deep canyon several
hundred miles back in the mountains
from juneau.
The size Of the tuslxs in question ID
something phenomenal. They form a.
most semicircle, the circnmference be
ing 10 feet by actual measurement. t.
peEing down to point from fhickness
Of about 9 inches. where the tusk pro-
jects from the head. The elements Of
ages have apparently had but little e.
fect on these nastodontic ornaments, for
the surface is almost smooth and near
" as hard as rock, and the combined
weight Of the two tnsks exceeds go
pounds. The tooth found isof irregular
shape. probably IA inches long, inches
through. and weighs 10 or Is pounds.--

piles in a trade with Butler. In August
1886, we protested against fusion, we
have fought it since, and we shall con-
tinue to fight ii. We shall never swallow
what we have said about it.-Smithfield

We have taken some pains to get the
opinions of a number of democrats of
this section as to fusion with populistS
this year, and have, interviewed men
from the country and from town and of
all of them there was only one gold dem
ocrat in the lOt-nOt a Single man was in
favor of fusion. They all thought that
the silver forces ought to get together if
it could he done. but they say they nave
no confidence in men that will turn down
such men as Cy. Watson and w. A.
Guthrie and elect such a man as Russell.
Men that will vote for q pable ne
gro like Jim Young in preference to n
man like n. B. Broughton, one of the
purest and best men in North Carolina.

hey are, willing 70 be traded on. AMI can
be traded on, by such a class as are en-

BREVITIES.

paper that stood by all Mckinley did
and favored doing to be crying out at
this late hour-"Remember the Maine"
The pity of it is that the great out
rage has been showed out of sight by
sentiment and commerce.
The wisest thing General Lee has
said as to the war with Cuba is i'm
mediate invasion, if it is to be done at
ali. Delay makes success more diff
cult and more dangerous. Yellow Jack
will fight for the Spaniards.
1t is proposed in New York that a
regiment of regulars be placed in ev-
cry brigade of volunteers.
We believe that the volunteer COM
panies should elect their own officers.
and hat regiments should have the
same right. There was no better
fighting done on this continent than by
southern volunteer regiments whose Of
ficers were elected by the men they
commanded.

San Juan, Porto Rico. April 16.-The
Spanish military authorities in this is
Ian are attempting the impossible
task of making good in a few weeks the
neglect Of years. Strenuous efforts
continue to be made with a view to
the completion of Notifications and
defensive works.
The chief labor employed on the stone
n earth works is convic Ordinar-
lily the men are marched back to the
prison for meals, but now, to avoid the
slightest loss of time, food is sent to
them.
Despite all that is being lone to
rush matters, several weeks at least
must elapse before the entire works
in hand approach completion. Good
progress, however, a been made with
a new battery to the east of San Girls
tobal castle, where fourteen heavy
rified breech-loading Hontoria cannon
have been mounted. Eight more OF
these guns have been placed in position
to the eastward of MORO castle. The
cannon are the most modern and for
midable which the Spaniards have here.
Submarine explosives have been ex-
tensively utilized. The steamer Ahon-
so XII on April 18th brought from Ha-
vana sixteen torpedoes and the same
number of submarine mines, with the
necessary attachments. These, togeth-
er with twenty ton Of dynamite, were
stored aboard a barge, which has been
lowed to the head Of the harbor. This
floating magazine is guarded night and
day by an armed boats crew, which
encircles the vessel.
A further scheme is on foot for max
ing use OF an old wreck, the Cristobal
Colon. She is being pumped out. with
the idea, it is said, of filing her with
explosives and towing her TO a narrow
part of the harbor channel, where h
might be blown up in the event Of hos
tile vessels attempting to pass in her
vicinity.
The Spanish, forces were augmented
on April Is by a battalion Of soldiers.
