Frank Clawson is the name of 4
singular fiddler OF Atlanta. who is
without hands Many years ago he
was caught in a blizzard and his arms
frozen so badly that both hands were
amputated at the wrists. For a long
time the violin was silent and he sun
posed that his fiddling DAYS were
over. He decided, however. to expert
ment, and, being a mechanical genius
he made a contriyance Of heavy wire
which would enable him to WELD the
bow. The lingering was more difTcult
but by long practice he trained the
stump Of his left hand to make the
necessary shifts from one string to
another and tne varying positions.
With the violin held in place by his
chin and knees and with the help OF
his fngerless arms, Clawson manages
to play his old-time selections with
nearly as much skill as he formerly
did.

Mastodon Tooth in Tennessee.


A magnificent and perfect mastodon
tooth was unearthed at the Tennessee
Marble eompany's property near Con-
cord a few days ago, and was brought
70 Knoxville, where il has created con
siderable curiosity. The tooth was
found in making a dam for the opera
tion Of hydraulic ram. The tooth is
a fossil, but identically like the origi-
nal tooth. It shows every indenture
and surface condition of a real tooth
Il is about seven inches in length
across the crown and about four
inches wide, The roots are perfect
except where broken on near the
points. The broken places show
the hollow part Of the tooth. II Is
thought that the tooth is the only
part Of the mastodon to be found at
the place, the tooth being probably
carried to the place by water.-Knox.
