STREETS TORN UP
An Automobiles Gets After the Street
Railway Company.

10 the Editor of The Journal.
Can't the Twin City Rapid Transit
company be satisfied with it's practical
monopoly Of the business streets against
any future street railway organizations
Besides this practical control Of the
streets it appears to have absolute con-
tempt for the life and limb of persons
who were accustomed to use the streets
before the company put in its tracks.
At several of the corners where curves
and crossings have been put in. the
company has been very slow about re-
placing the paving or putting it IN
good shape. Due praise should be &C
Corded the company for it's progressive
spirit. but either its MANAGEMENT +, has has

Witness the condition Of the street at
Second avenue and Fifth. The pave
ment has been in bad shape all summer,
and now for about week it has been
torn up again without apparent attempt
to hustle the work along.

During the proceeding year the de.

preceding three years the average was

Gen. Ainsworth says that until the

the public is made to treat him as

The leniency OF the military authori

Gigantic skeletons OF prehistoric In

river, in this state, by employees nj
the Maryland Academy of Science.
The remainsa are at the academy's build
ing on Franklin street, where they
are being articulated and restored by
the academy expert, John Widgeo1,
negro. They will be placed on public
exhibition early in the fall.
The collection comprises eight skel.
etUns, Of which some are women and
children. They are not all complete,
but all the larger bones have been
found and there is at least one com.
plete specimen OF an adult man. The
excavations were In progress for
months, and the discovery Is consider.
ed n Of the most imp rtant, from
the standpoint Of anthropology, In
M iryland In a number Of years. The
remains are believed to be at least l..
900 years old. The formation Of the
ground above and the location Of the
graves gives every evidence Of this.
During the excavation the remains OF
the camps OF later Indians were re.
vealed. THESE consisted Of oyster shell
heaps, charred and burned earth and
fragments Of cooking utensils. These
discoveries were made fully ten feet
above the graves which contained the
gigantic skeletons.
There have been other discoveries
In Maryland Of remains Of men Of tire
mendous stature. a skeleton was dis
covered at Ocean City several years
ago which measured a fraction over
2 feet 6 inches. This skeleton was
inferred IN q regular burying mound
and beads manufactured by white men
we found upon it. The dead Indian
was pro- ably one OF the tribes men.

At the point on the Choptank where
the remains were found there are
steep shelving cliffs OF sand and gravel
that extend to the waters edge. Be-
meath the bank is a layer Of mari. The
graves are III the sand a few feet
above the hard mari and have deposi

OF sand and gravel above them. A pc.

charred state Of the bones Of the wo.
and children. Those of the mon
are untouched by fire. This seems to

that the president knew q thing or
