set of teeth in it, the body bones, verte-
bral column. scapula and many of the
smaller leg bones, were found all in good
condition. In restoring the legs some of
the large bones of another mastodon were
used and the rest made up with plaster
models. The chief popularity of this par
ticular specimen is that the tusks which
are both in a good state of preservation
are curved in toward each other at the
ends. AS a general thing the tusks of
mastodons were nearly straight else
curved out. This skeleton is probably
about 10000 years old.

a corps of seven civil engineers of the
Baltimore and Ohio railroad is working now
between Boyd's and Dickersons surveying
for new road bed TO eliminate the eight
or ten sharp curves between these two
points, and also to get an easier grade for
the heavy trains. A double track is prob
able between Gaithersburg and Washing

miles. Several large bridges will have to
be built, 1t is said, one over Big Monocacy,
which will be at least a thousand feet long,
and several from two hundred to four hun
