Skeleton of Huge

Buenos Aires, April 2S.-In the
midst of the popular interest in the
report that some monster of prehis-
toric species has been seen alive in
Patagonia, workmen near the town
of Las Rosas in the northern province
of Santa Fe have accidentally exca-
waited fossilizcd parts of the skeleton
of what was evidently pleistocene
mammoth.
The newspapers publish a photo
graph of section of tusk three
feet and one inch long and five inches
in diameter at it's thickest point.
The bones are being brought to
the Museum of Natural History at La
Plata where there are many fine
skeletons of animals of the geological
epochs found in Argentina.

Historical Data of
Muscle Shoals

Florence, Ala, April 27.-From
1910 till about 1876 the shoals on the
Tennessee river here were known as
"mussel Shoals" according to maps
of original survey and historical data
CT original and authentic character
possessed by John B. Weakley, Bir-
mingham lawyer and capitalist and
former resident of this community.
Mr. Weakley's parents and grand
parents resided here and handed down
to him wealth of historical informa-
tion, which he has displayed to set at
rest n controversy that has arisen
over the original spelling of Muscle
Shoals"
This data, according to Mr.. Weak
ley, shows that the Cypress Land
company purchased the land about
Muscle Shoals from the government
March 13, 1913, and the first white
settlements were recorded that year,
followed by an influx Of settlers the
next year. At that time, the survey
showed the shoaly section of the riv-
er as "Mussel Shoals" the name being
given the rapids by reason of the
great quantities of the edible bivalve.
mussels, found in and along the
stream, these records appear to indi-
cate.
81 have often heard my grandpa
rents tell of mussels being hauled out
by the wagon loads" declared Mr..
Weakley. "This was the same mussel
that was once so abundant on the Mis-
Sissippi river and from the shell of
which in earlier days many pearl but
tons were made"
Mr.. Weakley accounts for the par
tial disappearance of the mussel from
the stream as result of floods and
the encroachments of civilization.
When the government undertook to
complete the Muscle Shoals canal
about 1876, the data in Mr.. Weak
ley's possession shows, engineers
changed the name from "Mussel" to
"Muscle" on government records and
it has so stood. This was not by de-
sign, but by accident, in Mr.. Weak
ley's opinion.
Mr.. Weakley possesses a map which
he said was made 100 years ago. This
shows the spelling "Musscl." Several
copies of this map are matters of rec
ord in the community, Mr.. Wcakley
said.
Government records, insofar as they
are available, show the spelling "Mus-
Gle Shoals"
Since Muscle Shoals became q ma
tional issue, discussion of the name
has created numerous reports.
