MAN WAS HERE
CENTURIES AGO
Bones Mingled With Those of Masto-
don and Saber- Tooth Tiger
Found Among Fossils.

Human beings inhabited the Amer
lean continent more than $4,000
years ago, according to the findings
of E. H. Sellards, state geologist of
Florida, and Prof. Oliver P. Hay. HUI
man bones were reported to have
been found intermingled with those
of the mastodon, saber-tooth tiger
and other extinct animals in the fos-
sill bed at Vero, Fla. Some biologists
do not agree with the two Florida
experts, but the investigations of
these anthropologists have not been
completed. Mr.. Sellards says: "The
study of the fossils of this stratum,
although not yet complete, has
brought to light a considerable num-
Der of extinct species which suggest
the reference of the deposit to the
plesitocene period. This is the old
est deposit from which human re-
mains have ever been taken"
Dr. Hay, who is research associate
of the Carnegie institute of Washing
ton, expresses similar views. Some
biologists insist that human beings
were not on this continent until the
glacial period.

FROM HAND CAR
TO GEORGIA LAWYER
Section Foreman on the Seaboard Air
Line Railroad Is Admitted
to the Bar.

From section foreman of the Sea-
board Air Line railroad to member
of the bar is the romantic experience
of j. E. McCurdy, according to a
dispatch from Albany to the daily
newspapers.
He has passed the examination of
the state board of bar examiners and
been admitted to the bar.
About year ago.. McCurdy, who
was then, and is now, section fore
man for the Seaboard Air Line rail
road here, walked into the office of
Attorney w. H. Beckham in AL
bany and stated his desire to study
law. Beckham tried to dissuade the
Lincolnly inclined foreman, but he
would not hear argument. He began
the study of law under Attorney
Beckham's tutelage. By spending all
Of his spare time on law books, with
in one year he has become sufficiently
versed in law to stand the examina
ton and now is ready to try his first
case before the bar.
There is a rumor among the sec
ton hands that when the handcar
made its daily trip along the tracks of
the Seaboard that picks, shovels,
crossties and spikes were not the only
tools carried, for the "section boss
always found room for one or more
of his law books with which to spend
his spare time.

u. S. PROHI BILL
BEFORE CONGRESS
The Senate Judiciary Committee Has
Voted to Recommend the Pas
sage of the Measure.

WASHINGTON. - Advocates of
prohibition in congress plan to carry
on a vigorous campaign for the pro-
posed Federal constitutional dry
amendment, and to exert every pos
sible effort to get vote on it at this
session, in spite of the general belief
that it will be beaten.
The senate judiciary committee's
recent action in voting to report the
amendment with a recommendation
for its passage opens the way for the
resolution in both houses, the house
judiciary committee having taken
similar action two weeks ago.
Do Not Expect Victory.
In the house it is proposed to APP
peal soon to the rules committee for
a special rule to bring the resolution
before the house for a vote-Within
a prescribed time.
Champions of the resolution in>the
senate can resort to no such parlia-
mentary expedients and must take
their chance of getting the amend
ment ahead of other legislation.
Even the most ardent advocates of
the amendment do not expect victory
at this session, inasmuch as a two
thirds majority of both houses is re-
quired. But they expect an increas-
ed majority in both houses and ulti-
mate victory in the Sixty-fifth con-
gress is their hope.
The District of Columbia prohibi-
ton bill will be voted on in the SEN
ate on January 9.

BURNED PAPER BAG BANK
TRYING TO GET WARM
New Hampshire Man Used Wads of
$500 to KindIe Fire.

The sitting room of New Hamp-
shire home recently became cool as a
result of the fire in the stove going
out. The head of the house picked
up paper bag and some newspapers
to rekindle the flame. The room
soon was quite warm again and the
husband and wife resumed reading
their papers.
Some time after the wife looked
for a paper bag which had contained
$500 in 81 bills, which she had placed
on table in the room. 1t was gone.
1t is presumed that in the husbands
efforts to get warmth he had placed
the bag containing the money in the
stove and it was consumed.
A few days ago box arrived at
the redemption division Of the Treas
ury Department at Washington, con-
tanning quantity of ashes, with a
note explaining that the money was
believed to be in the same. No trace
of the money had been found, the
senders stated, and treasury experts
were asked to submit the ashes to a
thorough examination and report re-
suits.
