MaxtOdOns in New York.

Sixty mastodons have been found in
New York, mostly along certain WELL
marked belts. Outside these belts the
state is barren. They, therefore, had
distinct feeding grounds, and that, too,
in not very remote time. They are
usually found resting on the boulders
of old streams and in comparatively
thin layer of peat.-Science.

JUDGE MEEK'S PAPERS
VALUABLE MANUscRIPTs PRE-
 sENTED TO DEPA2TMEMT or HIeToRY.
Hen. ". Q Meek the Nephew of Die Z tinguished Alabama Author,
 Gives Fapers and Nanu- <; scripts to the State.

I. Hon. W. C. Meek Of Columbus, Miss. has given to the state Department of Archives and History all the manuscript and personal, papsrs.of his distinguisned uncle, Judge A. B. Meek. 9.
 Mir. Meek came from Columbus last night bringing with hirn the valuable manuscripts. While here he was the guest of Director Thomas M. Owen of the Department. .Et:
 Judge Meek was one of the most dis ttnguishsd writers that Alabama has pro duced. He was anthor of the s.rons' dramatic poem Red Eagle" descriptive of the Creek war with Billy weatherford. the famous Indian chief as the central figure. He published, too, q number of his poems under the title of Songs 6f the south," and he was the author of 'Romantic Passages in the History of the Southwest" fti
 He was foreeful writer st once finish cd and graceful. His poems and his literary works deal with his native State. Judge Meek was also distinguished in public life, having held once under the State and Federal governments and he was editor of The Mobile Register for many years.
 The manuscripts contain many unpub- lished poems. an unfinished history of Alabama and many other literary works of great value. :sE s..
 Copies of The Red Eagle and other works of Judge Neck are rare and hard to obtain. It Is probable that a new set of the works. of the distinguished Ala bamian will be published including those that have never been published. that the new generation may become familiar with the writings. which were so highly ad- mired by Alabamians forty years ago.
 Mir. Meek who presented the papers to the Department of History Is son of Colonel s. M. Meek and a nephew of pr. B. F. Meek and Judge A. B. Meek He is a prominent attorney of Columbus.
