An exceedingly interesting antigua

unearthed. The attention Of McGregor
Chalmers Of Glasgow was directed to
them, and he has now made an inves-

he has discovered that some bear un-

They are distinctly marked by dag

to raise private subscriptions in order

The chalk diggers at Bailey, White &c

found human skeleton lmbedded In
the limestone. 1t was that Of short,
very thick-set man, and the men In
the laboratory, who have some expe-

probably a Roman, A careful search
was made for coins or weapons or any
thing that could give a clew to the pc
riod or nationality of the skeleton, but
nothing was found except some flints,
rudely shaped, with some kind of split

MAS TOO MUCH OPPOSITION
The Burnt Cork Show by
Young Ladies Of DR..
Brett's Church May
Not Come Off.

After all. the much talked of minstrel
show that was being arranged for by the
members of the Young Women's Guild OF
the Bergen Reformed Church, may not be
given. There was to have been a meeting
room of the church, but on investigation,
it was found that not one of the young
ladies materialized.
Miss Bertha Williams, the chairman of
the committee appointed to arrange for
the burnt cork affair. could not be in
duced TO explain why the meeting did
not take place last evening. She resides
at the boulevard and Wiley street. Her
father responded to a News reporters
ring last evening, and he was asked If
a meeting Of the Guild was being held at
the house.
Why | understood that the orange
ments for that affair were all off, he
said. Before he could go any further,
Miss Bertha Williams came rushing down
the stairs and quickly silenced her father
with, Papa, papa you know nothing
about his affair" >
You told me it was put off. responded
Mr.. Williams.
eYou misunderstood me- was the an
swer. Il nave nothing to say" was the
answer to numerous questions put to her.
She would not tell why the meeting was
not held, even when it was explained to
her that Pastor Brett had spoken in favor
of it.
Il do not know when a meeting will be
held" she said, but 1 do know there has
been a great deal of fuss mad about it.
These New York papers are SO given to
expatiating, that one almost shudders to
read what is printed. The stories are so
badly distorted that there is not a word
of truth in them.
There is no split in our church, as, has
been stated. and. in fact, l do not know of
one person who has spoken against the
minstrel show. However. in regard to
that matter. I will say nothing
In view of the position taken by the
Rev. DR.. Brett. and the -postponement of
the proposed meeting, people are kept
guessing as to just what the outcome
will be. There is no doubt dissension is
somewhere. but the pastor~and Miss WIZ
liams say they know Of no opposing fac
ton
Miss Williams is a beautiful girl, dark
and tall. She was told that burnt cork
would not improve her looks any, but
she only laughed.
