0RMSBY'S FOSSILS
Some Wonderful Discoveries Are
Coming to fiuht :7t}T "a

The Appeal has contended for some
time that this city was full of ssfos-
sils, and excavations at Gardner's has
borne out the theory. AS the work
gees deeper the more interesting: be-
comes the relics of the old age that
is found. Mr.. Jas. Yerington is SUPER
intending the work and under his able
management there will be handed over
to the scientists some Of the best rel
les of the race that is still found
extant In this city. -------- I.
One Of the greatest discoveries was
made yesterday. AS the werkmen
were digging; the arm Of prehistoric
man came tumbling down the bank.
1t held a stone implement. such as
was supposed to be used in grubbing
sagebrush from the lands of Ormsby
county. This discovery raised quite a
commotion among the workmen until
some one suggested that hundreds of
duplicates could be found here at the
present time. The arm was thrown ov-
er the embankment, as it is regarded
as useless. The stone mattock was re-
tanned, as it is quite a curio, and it is
believed that it could still do good
work
Exciting news comes in every once
in a while to Mr.. Yerington and he
goes chasing out to the scene of op-
eratiors on his bicycle. later in the
day a workman came rushing into
the Office and announced that they
had found wonderful stone, covered
with strange drawings, and still very
legible. The superintendent immedi-
ately rushed to his faithful bicycle
and was on the scene in an instant.
When he arrived he found neatly
carved stone some two feet square
covered with hieroglyphics. After
washing carefully at the springs and
consulting a code of the lost art it
/ was discovered that the. stone was the
record of the defunct Ormsby County
CndmD6r OF commerce. mere was on
ly one article missing and that was
. the amounts that were due the ex-
| body from the members in arrears.
The entire day was one Of unrest
for the man who is carrying on the
exciting excavations in his endeavor
to help the science of the world and
bring attention to the wonderful re-
sources of this city and county. Hardly
i had he finished dinner when he was
again called to the scene of operation.
This time a discovery of real value
had been uncovered by the workmen.
i 1t was a stone mortar and postal.
| A short distance from this there was
! found a small stone box that was her
metically sealed. This was carefully
broken open and inside was deposited
plans on a peculiar sort of papyrus
which retains its color and fieXibility
wonderfully. The plans on being
brought to this city caused consider

Negro Goes to Indiand|a to See About COx Matter
IS EDITOR OF HOT SHOTS"
Now En Route to Washington On a Mysterious Mission-Says He Advised Minnie Cox Not to
 Return to lndianoIa.

Chattanooga, January 14.-The Rev. w. N. McGill, colored, editor of Hot Shots, published here and at Birmingham, re- turned today from Indianola, Miss, where he has been Investigating the trouble Involving the alleged forced resig- nation ef the colored postmaster Minnie Cox. McGill went to Indanola just after returning to Washington, where he had been to press his candidacy for chaplain of the house of representatives. He is very reticent regarding his mission to Mississippi, and does not say whether or not he was sent there by some one in au- thority to investigate the trouble. He Is one of the leading "anti-lily white repub- licans' of the south.
 All that McGill would say about his trip to Indianola was that he had found that the trouble originated by the publication
 f an article In a negro newspaper, which offended the white people of that com- munity. He states that from what he learned during his investigation that if he were in the womans place he would not go back to Indianola at this time, and that he had so advised her at Birming- ham, where he saw her on his way back to Chattanooga
 When asked whether he had been sent to Indianala, he said, q will only say this, the administration of President Roosevelt is to the negro what the heart is to the body. It has pumped the very life blood into every artery of the ne- gro of this country"
 MeGill requested the reporter to write that statement down."
 McGili goes from here to Washington.

Budget for 1903 Shows a Falling of

Berlin, January 14.-The Prussian bud get for 1903 shows a deficit of SIS, l75, ,000 The revenue is estimated at s650, ,55l, ,4S2. Finance Minister Von Rheimbaben ex- paining the financial condition of Prussia. said it was due to very hard times. The railroad receipts for the current year had fallen off s17O0O,0OO, agriculture was in a bad way; the manufacturing industries were nearly as bad, and the average con- sumption of pig iron during the last two years had fallen from 1S21s pounds per capita to 80. America, in my opinion, :" he added, lis the dark spot in the heaven of our industry. Our internal market must be greatly strengthened, for our market is today dependent upon America and England. Agriculture must be our special concern"
 Among the new appropriations is the first quota for the construction of royal palace at Posen, for the use of Emperor William upon his visits there, which is lis majesty's cherished wish.

should go on the free list and when the bill came back from the senate with a provision which virtually placed anthta- cite coal on the free list they Spplauded vigorously. MT. Dalzfll, in the course of his remarks today said there M prac- tioally no anthracite coal in the world except that in the United States and a little in China.
 The senate amendment was adopted without division.
 Rapid progress was made with the army appropriation bill after the coal bill had been passed. The most impor- tant amendments adopted were to in- crease the number of officers in the sig nal corps by twenty-three. narely. one colonel, two lieutenant eolonels, fo,T ma jors, eight captains and eight first lieu tenants, and another to prevent the as continuance of the army transport ser vice without action by congress.
 Senate Acts Promptly.
 Washington, Janunary 14.-The senate today acted promptly on the house bill providing rebates of the duty on coal and passed it unanimously, without debate. a few minutes after 1t was brought from the house.
 The militia bill was also passed with an amendment striking out the section providing for a reserve force of trained men, thus removing the objections made against 1t.
