Tae Mentone Man,

An almost perfect skeleton was found
in cave at Mentone, France, March,
1872. 1t showed its owner to have been
a tall, we'll formed man, with an aver
age skull and facial angle of eighty
five degrees. The antiquity of this skel-
eton, known as the Mentone man, is
undoubted. His bones are associated
with those Of the cave lion, cave bear
and other extinct animals. All the
bones were in place, surrounded by
flint implements and the remains of
animals which the man probably had
killed. Twenty-Five perforated teeth,
which may have formed a chaplet, lay
by his head. These bones, with the
Dutchman's skull found in cave near
Engis, are the oldest specimens known
Of human remains and 60 far to prove
that prehistoric races were well fur
nished with brain power.

A TRIBE Coincidence,

A correspondent of the London
Standard relates the following triple
coincidence, taken from an old manu-
script diary, dated 1912, in which q
relative quotes from an ''old journal:"
I'm the year 1884, on Dec. 8, a boat on
the Menai (Menai strait, in north
Wales) crossing that strait, over which
q bridge has since been built, with
eighty-one passengers. was upset, and
only one passenger, named Hugh Will
liams. was saved. On the same date.
In the year 1855. was upset another
boat, containing about sixty passen-
gers, Of whom all persisted excepting
one. whose name was Hugh Williams.
On Aug. 5, 1920, third boat met with
the same disaster, with twenty five
passengers only, and all persisted with
the exception Of one. whose name was
Hugh Williams"

Boulevard and Esplanade.

Boulevard and Esp10nade.
Both "esplanade" and boulevard" are
military terms by origin. The original
boulevard" was bulwark or horizon
tai part of the rampant, and an "espla-
made" was originally the glacis or slope
Of the counterscarp Of a fortified place.
A writer 200 years ago noted that the
word boulevard was NOW chiefly TAX
en- for the void space between the gla-
cis Of a citadel and the first houses of
a town." hence its extension to other
"void spaces suitable for promenad-
ing. The old French ''esplanade" was
defined by Cotgrave as "a planning, lev
cling, evening Of ways" from Latin
"explanare," to smooth or fatten out,
whence the English words explain"

l am having the greatest time OF my

arrived at McDavid's station in due

grand change has been wrought at
that thriving little town.

of my old-time friends, prominent
mong whom are the families of Ed.
Bowman, Bombay brothers. Joel Nc
David, Harrison brothers, William

ing turpentine man of the place. The
general health of the place is excellent
and the farming interest is very
bright. The good people Of McDavid
treated me so courteously that, as a
result, am in love with everybody
there.
On the fifth I boarded the train and
came to Century, and was met at the
depot by two of my old friends, Law

ARRIVE
But Many Of Them Appeal to the
City, When They Find No
Fruit to Load.

Laborers in large numbers arrived
In the city yesterday from Kentucky
and Georgia, some Of them joining the
hundreds of men now at work on the
Louisville and Nashville wharves,
while many of them came up to the
city and appealed to the mayor to
send them home when they found no
cocoanuts to unload or oranges to
pack, for which, they claim, they were
hired.
Yesterday was pay day on the wharf
and hundreds of men received their
wages for the week, thousands of dol
lars being put in circulation.
In the forenoon one Of the parties
of negroes, composed of fifty-two from
Kentucky. called upon the mayor and
appealed to him for aid to reach home.
They claimed they had been hired for
the purpose of packing oranges and re-
fused to work in the phosphate The
city could do nothing for them, but a
large number of them were given
something to eat at the police station
when the prisoners there were given
supper.
Another party of negroes from Geor-
gia, who had, they claimed, been hired
to unload cocoanuts, gathered at the
union depot last night. They wanted
to get home but could not, and had no
money 10 provide smething to eat 81

ed the police, that If the negroes want
ed to sleep in the union depot, to let
them do so.
| Mayor Bliss says he has taken up
the matter with the local superinten.
dent of the L. & N. and it Is possible
that the company will arrange to send
back all laborers who are brought here
and who refuse to work, as it is a
very undesirable class to have dump
ed into the city without money or a
place to sleep.

Courtney is no angel to get along
with. He never minces words.
A failure to do ones duty Is an I'M
pardonable sin in his eyes.
He has taken men out of the boat
and crew on mere suspicion of derelic-
ton In duty. His anger is the equal of
a Chinese typhoon. But he is always
fair.
Moakley, on the other hand, is slow
to decision, but quick to act when his
mind is made up. And, like Courtney,
he is firm in his resolves. The law Of
either is absolute. That is why Cornell
wins.
Moakley started In at the bottom Of
the scale at Cornell in 1899, and with
his usual sagacity he took up the
branch he could do most with at the
beginning-that Is, distance running.
He knew 1t would take years to de-
velop an all round team, but If he
could turn out a high class squad of
distance runners who would attract
attention in the long races, where the
competition among college athletes
seemed at that time to be most keen,
1t would be possible to attract more at
tention to the other branches of track
work.
