RELICS OF TIMES LONG PAST Discoveries Made in Texaa Will Excite the Interest of Archeologlsts Everywhere. While digging In aa old gravel pit nea Onalaska, Tex., at a depth of 15 feet, a graven rock Imnge or Idol was found by F. M. Burke. Nearby was unearthed the skeleton of a mastodon ef greater size than any heretofore brought to light In Texas. According to scientists, the prehistoric prehis-toric animal roamed the earth between 400,000 and 600,000 years ago. -The 1 sculptured Image may have belonged to a civilization that was content- 3 ! poraneous with the existence of the mistodon. The discovery has aroused the deepest deep-est interest on the part of members of the faculty of the State Agricultural and Mechanical college, who are Investigating In-vestigating the bone and other relics found In the gravel pit. Besides the skeleton, other scattered bones of extraordinary size are being found as the excavation progresses. - A lower leg bone was found to be five and one-half feet long. A Jawbone Jaw-bone with the teeth Intact weighs about 70 pounds. Exchange. Belonged to Prehistoric Times. The stone cist, containing the remains re-mains of a prehistoric human, found on a farm at Catterllne, Kincardineshire, had lain there 3,500 years or more. It is believed now. Dr. Alex Low, arch-eolotflst arch-eolotflst of Aberdeen university, has decided de-cided the rude urn belongs to an early period of the Bronze age, and be believes be-lieves the skeleton Is that of a person who was burled in the period of 2000 to 1500 B. C Relics of the Bronze age had been uncovered before In this locality, but this find la of much more Importance than the previous ones. Doctor Low says the skeleton appears to be that of a person whose height was about 5 feet 7 Inches. The skull la of the brancbycephallc type short and of excessive breadth. The head was round and with a full forehead: the ; face was broad and short. The body had been placed In the cut in a crouching crouch-ing position, lying on the left side, the head facing to the east -The left hand was nnder the head and the right under un-der the chin ; the knees were bent - Shoes From Skina ef Snakes. ..The latest, footwear for . the society woman In London Is shoes made from the skins of reptiles. Snakeskln, owing ow-ing to Its beautiful marking. Is most sought after. Not many women, how., ever, have obtained these shoes, for besides, be-sides, being very expensive, the supply Is extremely limited. Exclusive shoemakers shoe-makers use the golden anaconda, a 30-foot 30-foot monster found In Mexico, the boa-constrictor boa-constrictor from Africa, the pythoa from Southern Nigeria, and the yellow-Jack yellow-Jack from India, though the amount of skin from each snake that can be used Is so small that few pairs of shoes can be turned out In a month. The skin of the little Burma lizard arrives In England In larger quantities and the best atorea have footwear made from It Norway Holds Lest Haraoen. la the carcass of a whale caught la the Davis strait. Greenland, and recently re-cently brought Into a Norwegian port, the head of an old harpoon has been found, deeply Imbedded In the blubber. blub-ber. Experts declare that the whale must have carried the harpoon In Its body for some fifty years, since It Is of a pattern used by American whalers whal-ers when they fished the Greenland coasts half a century ago.
