News of Palaoro's attempt on his life
reached this city by telephone early
Sunday morning. soon after midnight,
u B. Sanguinetti Of North Main street,
friend of the family, was called to
the telephone by an operator on the
Orange County line, who related some
of the details connected with Palaoro's
deed and asked him to notify the mans
brothers. Upon learning Of the affair,
Henry and Augustine Palaoro, who live
on Addison place, set out for Chelsea
with their families. This morning
Chelsea physician got in communication
with the City hospital and an ambul-
ance from this city was sent to Chelsea.

Palaoro first came into local promi-
nence back in the summer of 1911. when
he came tearing out OF Seminary streef
one day and boarded a New Hampshire
automobile which happened to be bowl
ing down North Main street at the time
He hoped on the running board and
made threatening gestures at the fright
ened passengers before he was finally
overpowered and taken in tow BY the po-
lice. Later he was examined for his
sanity and committed to the state hos
pital sn Waterbury. Somewhat more
than year ago he was discharged and
permitted to return to his family in
Barre. His recovery seeming to be CON-
plete, he became partner with his
brothers in the granite business, the
firm now having quarters in Mrs. c. f.
Bolster's plant on Granite street. Not
long after his return, however, the man
again exhibited peculiar Symptoms. SO
his friends say. He was finally persuad
ed to abandon the granite business and
after urgent pressure from his relatives,
he purchased small farm two miles
out of Chelsea and moved his family
thereto.
According to reports which have
reached this city, the change seemed !
to improve his condition and everything |
appeared to be going well until few
months ago when the family again be- |

NEWS OF THE OLD DOMINION.
TOOTH OF MAsToDoN FOUND.
Part of Backbone Also Unearthed at
Lancaster. Va.

Lancaster, Va, Sept. An arch
geological find Of great interest was
made here Saturday by some men
who were digging we'll on the prem
ises of George Carter. At a depth Oh
6O-odd feet far below the surface oi
the earth they found a molar tooth
and n section of the backbone OF
mastodon.
The tooth, which with the exception
of roots is in a state Of almost per-
feet preservation, has grinding sur
face of 8 by 8 1-2 inches and must
have been from ~ to ID inches long
from the top Of tn tooth to the ena
of the roots. The portion OF the tooth
.hove the roots is covered with a Jet
black enamel, which appears to be as
nerfect as when in the mouth OF this
primeval monster.
The section of the backbone is more
than G inches in diameter and Is not
50 we'll preserved as the TOOTH as
al the laminae have disappeared.
Tho tooth found is rear one OF the
lower Jaw and has four double con-
ical projections or cusps' WIN d
small rudimentary one at the rear
end all giving unmistakable evidence
that it is a molar tooth OF an Amer
iron mastodon, said by BIOLOGISTS TO
have. been the progenitor OF the eie-
plant.
These remains were found in a
stratum Of sand and mari which was
once an old sea floor. AS no remains
of the mastodon have heretofore Deen
found in this region, it is supposed
that the dead body Of the monster
was brought here from higher iatl-
tudes of the ice drift of the great
glacial epoch and dropped on the Dot
tom Of the sea that then covered all
tbis tidewater region. 1t is supposed
that other remains of this mastodo
lie imbedded near where the TOOTH
and vertebrate were found, but the
great depth at which they were dis
covered prec,ried any extended
search for them.
