A GREAT DISCOVERY.
Discoveries which promise TO be OF the
greatest interest to scientists and to
anthorpological research were made re-
Gently by DIR. High, the naval surgeon
While digging about in the sand he
came across the femur OF an elephant
and the thigh of what the surgeon has
decided belonged to an ourang outang
| he discovery created considerable ex-
citement on the little island. for it was
never thought nossible that the sand spit
could have been previously inhabited by
beasts. A study OF the formation of the
island BROUGHT ont the conclusion that it
must have been of somewhat recent ori-
gin, and that prehistoric animals could
never have lived there. When Captain
Niblack arrived at Midway he was
shown the bones, and he asked the sur
geon:
Doctor, have you any theory"
oh, yes, | presume they are the re-
mains OF a circus on board a vessel
which was shipwrecked in these parts"

CRAVE OF MRS PUTNAM.
Evidence That the Wife of Gen. Putt
 nam Was Buried Prematurely.

State Historian Hugh Hastings, at Albany, II. Y.. has received a letter from '. c. Hamilton of Elmsford, westchester county, conveying two important historical finds
 Mir Hamilton states that after q long and diligent search the burial place of Mrs Putnam, the wife of Gen. eraI Israel Putnam. and also that of her son, Septimus Gardiner, both of whom died in the Highlands i'll TIT, have been discovered.
 'sAfrs Putnam is said to have died from fright by reasSsl of the capture of Forts Clinton assd Montgomery on the night of October z. 1777," writes Mir Hamilton. .Her remains were secretly and when discovered indi- cated prematurely- buried, for they were lying face downward. Her hair had grown to an unusual length, and was in perfect state of preserva- hon.n
 Tn his researches MT Hamilton has discovered some interesting data of the Beverly Robinson Religious soci- ety. He found that the parent church of this sect was St Peters of PeekskilI, and that the chapel in the Highlands was mission connected with it. It is now known as St Phil ip's at Garrisons. The old chapel was moved to its present site some forty-two years ago, and is to this day in use-by the Methodists. It is one of the very few landmarks left.

Democratic Convention WIFI Be Held
 In Exhfbitfon City July 6. i WASHINGTON Jan. 13 At the Democratic national committee meet ing assembled to select a city and fix date for the national convention State Senator McCarren of New York was given hearty cheer as he step ped forward to present the claims of New York city for the convention. One of the controlling motives to be considered, he said, was the comfort of the delegates. He referred to what he termed the discomfort of the dele gates at the convention at Kansas City on account of the torridity of the weather.
 The salubrity of the climate of New York was next mentioned New York is summer city, declared MT. Me Carren. You can wear light over coat there with comfort in July.''
 This statement provoked subdued laugh.
 St. Louis was advocated by Mayor Rolla Wells, who was introduced by Senator Stone. member of the com mittee. As mayor of St Louis, MT. Wells said he was qualified to extend a most cordial invitation in behalf of the people of that city for the convention.
 A written proposal was presented to the committee offering S4O,oO0 in cash and the free use of the Coliseum, a fire proof building with seating capacity of 12,OO0.
 The proposal of Chicago was read. It contained a provision that should the sum of $45, 600, offered by that city, not be exhausted in paying the legitl- mate expenses of the convention the balance should be returned; also that 5000 tickets be placed at the disposal of the local committed
 The committee took short recess and then went into executive session, choosing St. Louis as the convention city and fixing July as the date for holding the convention.
 Just before the committee adjourned W. J. Bryan, who had just arrived in Washington entered the committee room. After the adjournment he held an informal reception, being personally greeted by many members of the com mittee.
 On the first ballot St. Louis received 28 votes, Chicago 20 and New York 6.

BOARD OF FINANCE.
Building of Vault Suggested to Pre-
 serve City Records.

The board of finance met yesterday afternoon, Mayor Elton presiding and all the members being present, Tne session lasted about an hour and a half and was quite interesting.
 The mayor said he wanted to call the attention of the board to a few things which he thought it would be well to look into, and suggested that an expert auditor be employed to look over the city's method of bookkeeping and See what changes if any are need ed to bring it up to the latest. This Is not case of straightening out a snarl," continued his honor, "or any thing of that kind Within the past five years all the large concerns about town have changed their system or bookkeeping, and as the system Ill use in the city government is the same as 1t had ten or twelve years ago, l thought it would be we'll to find out from some competent authority If It does not need touching up to make It what we ought to have. In the latest methods journals have been discarded, but they use them here still. l think scme of this work can be left out and thus tighten the labor on the clerical force and at the same time simplify the system and make it up to date. gs OQmm1SSlOner INQTLuFOE SuS LCAA the name of MT Manvel, who made the investigation for the Watertown peo- pie, adding that he was the best he had in mind.
 1T think remarked Commissioners Frisbie. lit would be well to move slowly in the matter until We find out what we want We may be able to get an expert to look at the books for nothing and tell Us how much over hauling they need"
 It was voted to refer this whole mat ter to aD committee consisting of Com missioners Frisbie and Northrop.
 A good deal was said about the need of vaults. both by the mayor and the commissioners, the former claiming that nothing was safe until 1t was in vault and the door closed.
 Mir Northrop suggested that it would be a good plan to build a vault some place outside the hall.
 A bill of $25 from Minnie ]. Scully for typewriting was ordered paid. The rest of the meeting was devoted to an arrangement of the finances regarding the payment of bills contracted in 1903.
