TZ3 BDIXOBS'S LSI3TJBE E0TJS5. Points and Paragrapas cf Things Fresent, Past and Tnttire. Andrew Carnegie is making mag nificent gifts of hi3 great fortune. He offers to give the city of Norfolk fifty thousand dollars for a public li brary building, on condition that the eity of Norfolk furnish a suitable site and obligate to contribute annuallj five thousand dollars to the support cf the institution. jNorioit already con tributes fifteen hundred dollars to its public library ; and for the sake ot get ting a fifty thousand dollar new build ing, surely the extra thirty-five hun dred dollars annually can be provided to: a Kecently a woman who had to leavo h ?r children during the day to work away from home in Charlotte returned home to find one of her children burn ed to death. The sad accident suggest ed to Dr. A. C. Barron, pastor of tto B.iptist church of the city, the idea of furnishing a day nursery for children whose mothers have to leave home. . The good women of Charlotte took the matter in hand and there are twj day nurseries in the city for such pur pose, l hey are supported by volun tary contribution of the people. It is indeed a worthy cause and speaks well for the liberality and generosity,of tha progressive city of Charlotte. The experiments in wireless tele graphy are being pushed by the govern ment, and points on the North Caroli na coast are just now of peculiar inter est. The following recently sent out from Washington gives the latest cosj (;3rning these experiments : "The most efficient method of long distance transmission has been foui d to be from wire cylinders. The new ",r ri n " a-anioned Jwit h cylinders of 16 wires each and 140 lest ia leagth. From these cylinders it is jxpected to cover a magnetic field of not less than 500 miles. The stations now in operation are at Hatteras and it Roanoke Island, Pamlico sound, North Carolina.' Workmen are be ginning the construction of a tower at Cape May, which wiil be the third sta tion. When this is finished the two rsmote stations will be 127 mi!e3 apart The three points now are connected by a government telegraph line, but this line will be abandoned on the comple tion of the Cape Henry station. Tl.is incidentally will save the expense of maintenance of a half dozen repair stations." -m It one will snuggle down in his seat m railroad train and pay no attention :o any one and look like he does not jare for the attention or concern of any one else, h9 may make some amusing observations. Kecently in this way ve listened to the somewhat spirited conversation batween a man from "ihe town" and another from "the country." The country man's good wife was along occasionally throwing in a signi ficant remark to help up their side of the conversation which had almost reached the point of controversy. The country roan was a well-to-do f irmer and the town man had been away from the country long enough to think ha was doing well in tow a. The country man's good companion asked the town man how he liked to live in town. "Un, l nte town so mucn i a poor man has no showing in the country at all." "Well," said the countryman, "that is exactly what 1 thought of the town- f 1 r -rtrtvi m cn ho a r?n unnnu n i Kara " Said the town man, "If I had plenty of money I would not mind living il the country ; but a country man can not get cis man, ana can t nave any advantages at all." "So,"answered the countryman, "I think of the town. I would not mind living" in town, it I had plenty ol money, but it seems to me that poor man has a mighty poor showing in town. He has to buy everything end is migbtly cooped up." Justthan " the train man in a blue coat with brass buttons called out, "All off for -. Tmd we heard no more of the conversation. The discussion opened up the que? tiotti Which ia the better place - lor a poor man, the country or the town? LARGEST ANIMAL 1 EARTH. Tremendous Proportions and Weight Enormous. Virginian-Pilot. Chicago possesses the bones of the largest land animal that ever lived, so far as man knows. Professor E. S. Kiggs, of Field Columbian Museum, unearthed the, remains of almighty dinosaur in Western Colorado and has just landed them in the laboratory at Jackson Park. He estimates the length of the living animal at approximately 75 feet and its height at 20 feet. It is supposed to have weighed between 20 and 25 tons and to have lived at least 1.000,000 years ago. Its foot probably had a spread of a square yard or more. Professor Biggs has been a successful hunter of fossil remains for seven years and his latest discovery will give him lasting fame in the scientific world. He was assisted by H. W. Menke, an other attache of the Field Museum. The dinosauria flourished during the iges known in geology as jurassic and cretaceous. On top of these are piled the tertiary and quaternary ages and their deposits. Some scientific men put these animals back into antiquity 3,000,000 years, but Professor Kiggs is too modest or too cautious to yenlnre a personal opinion for publication. To a layman he says : "If you are told the dinosaur is a creature of at least 1,000,000 years ago it does not add any thing to your conception to add an other million or two." TEEMED WITH ANIMAL LIFE. But the Professor doesn't hesitate to make positive statements as to many of the conditions surrounding the dino saur. It is reasonably certain, for ex ample, that he lived before the convul sive forces of nature heaved the Kocky Mountains from the bosom of mother earth.' It is known that that region, much ot it now a thirsty, - sub-arid land, once had great rivers, broad lakes and wide marshes. These waters were bordered by thick growths of canes, IIeEria-iJms.naljnett6?-and other sami- tropical growth as far north as Wy oming. Land and water teemed with animal life in many strange forms. Rivers and lakes were full of fishes, whose fossil remains have come down to this day as mute testimony to their former life. Alligators and turtles like these of to-day were the companions of the herbivorous dinosaurs along the reedy edges of the marshes. Over the forests and plains roamed many gigantic quadrupeds, some of them ferocious flesh eaters, and most of them now extinct. .' PREHISTORIC SEA. Still later, if the scientists have not made mistakes in reading the signs of the ages, much of the Kocky Mountain region was submerged by a prehistoric , for after the reptilian era of the mezozic eon came geologic formations filled with the fossils of marine lite. Colorado and the surrounding territory were under the sea for centuries, but at last the continent began to slowly heave up, its backbone. The process was so gradual that if men were hying on the shores of the sea they would have noticed no more change than an inhabitant of New Jersey can now de tect on the Atlantic coast. The moun tains grew steadily, the water fled, and the land became barren and parched. But water has laid science under a bur? den of gratitude, for the swift running waters carried mineral substances which impregnated the bones of ani mala caught in their swirl and pre served them for millions of years for the edification of modern man. CLASSED AS KEPTILES. The dinosauria lived in great nam bers in a section now mountainous ani arid, for their remains have been found in many sections. The late Professor O. C. Marsh, of Yale College, nnearlh ed the bones of several hundred in Wy oming, Colorado and South Dakota. In spile of the great size attained by some of them, the dinosauria are classed as reptiles. The 75-foot mammoth foqnd by Professor Kiggs has a skeleton which suggests an enormous crocodile. Other dinosauria had some resemblance to the kangaroo, walking or leaping on their hind feet, and Professor Kiggs alio secured a large part of the skele ton of an ani .-. al of this type. Some of the dinosauria had skeletons so closely resembling those of birds that only an expert can distinguish them. . Nor were all these animals of great size, for there were species npv larger than rabbits, and during the latter part of their era they became much specialized. i HUNTEft OF BIO GAME. - . ............ Professor Kiggs had spent several seasons in Wyoming and brought back Sean tha lha KMYwHaiaMwjsfcgt many interesting fossiid. He learned by correspondence of the finding of fragmentary bones in Western Colora do and deeided to shift his search to that field this year. He smilingly evades questions as to the exact locali ty, for he wishes to revisit it next sea son. Messrs. Kiggs and Mauke and an assistant - spent three months in quarrying the remains of three dino saurs. You may call Professor Kiggs h hunter of big game, if you wish, but his game once located, he has to dig it out with pick and shovel from be neath layers of sandstone and other imprisone-Wata. He might also be called a miner, for he has to roam over the fossiliferous country prospect ing for signs. Having found a few scattered bones upon the surface of the ground, like the miner who has dis- coyered a little placer gold, he must iollow the signs to locate the mother deposit, which is generally buried un der sand and rock. AS IMMENSE RIB. The Kiggs party was ten miles from a town when its scent was sharpened by finding several fossilized bones, the drift from a coyeted treasure. After some further search for the skeleton, a leg bone was discovered protruding from a ledge near the foot ot a neigh boring hill or butte. The hunters be gan at once to quarry, 'as Professor Kiggs expresses it, in the hope of find ing a prize. One of the first bones en countered was a mighty rib. They happened to strike it near the middle and dug both way3. Day after day went by without reaching either end, and the increasing enthusiasm and wonder of the eager searchers may be imagined. When the rib was finally uncovered from end to end it was mea sured with an almost breathless inter est. When found to be nine feet five inches long and eight inches wide Pro fessor Kiggs realized hehad made a great discovery, lie and his associates felt well repaid for their long and weari some toil amid sand storms and in a temperature marking 110 degrees above zero. Passersby carried the news to town, and thereafter there were fre quent 'visitors' day, in which the to see "the pnake, as they termed it. LARGEST KNOWN. Professor Kiggs kept on with the la borious digging until be recovered all that was left of the skeleton. One of the most valuable pieces found was a thigh some six feet ten inches long. The next largest thigh bone known to scientific men is that of a dinosaur in the collection of the Peabody Museum at Yale. It is stated to be six feet two inches long, and Professor Marsh 'esti mated that the liying animal, which he called "atlantosaurus," was at least 75 feet long and weighed 20 tons or more. It is by comparison with the figures of Marsh, who was an authori ty on the saurians of the mezozic age for 30 years, that the Chicago profes sor ascertains he nas ice oones oi me largest nnima's ever known to man THE BACKBONE. Professor Kiggs and his assistants struck the backbone near the pelvis, and as the fossils were revealed in all their magnitude the joy of the hunters was unbounded. They f onnd seven dor sal vertebrae, which the layman would call joints or sections of the backbone. There were also seven ribs, two bony joints ot the tail, a large part of the pelvis and another leg bone. The seven dorsal vertebrae make up about 12 leet of the big dinosaur's spinal col- utnn, and the tail bones about two feet The disc-like part of the dorsal verte brate is 15 inches In diameter. Meas ured between extreme points the spinal column has a breadth of nearly four leet, which makes a pretty stiff back bone. Li Re the alligator, the dinosaur has a tall long drawn out and a neek also exceedingly elongated. Professor Kiggs thinks the dinosaur was one of the species that Marsh named -brontosaurus," or at least is cloeely allied to that type. Mareh found an almost complete skeleton near Like Como, Wyoming, and by com parison with elber remains ce has been able to restore it entirely, so there is no doubt as to the bony frame of this species of the Baurians.

The following special message was yesterday sent by Gov. Aycock to the General Assembly, notifying that body of the embezzlement of some $4,000 of penitentiary funds by one of the clerks in the State Treasurer's office during the Russell administration : To the Honorable, the General Assem bly : It becomes my painful duty to com municate to your Honorable Body the fact that a deficit has been found in the account ot the State's prison in the Treasury Department. I am informed by the Treasurer, who has been investi gating for the past two or three days, that the deficit amounts to about four thousand ($4,000), so far as has been ascertained to the present time. The deficit appears to have begun early in the year 1900 or possibly before then and continued until about the last of November of said year. The bcoks have been changed so as to force bal ances, lnis morning Honorable B. K. Lacy, State Treasurer, sent for Maj. Martin, who has for several years been a clerk in the office until the 10th of March, 1901, and confronted him with the changes in the books. Maj. Mar tin admits the changes in the books and confesses that he took the money covered by the changes amounting, ac cording to his statement, to thirty-eight hundred ($3800). I deem it my duty to lay these matters before your Honor able Body to the end that a committee may be appointed with authority to send for persons and papers and make a thorough and complete, examination. The committee should, ol course, be authorized to sit during the recess of the Legislature. Very respectfully, C. B. AYCOCK. By the Governor : P- JARiiALL. Private becretary. This shortage in the penitentiary fund was discovered last week, when treasurer Lacy, who recently came into office, ordered the clerk who suc ceeded Maj. Martin to check up the penitentiary accounts. It was found that the Treasurer's books showed that the penitentiary bad only about $900 to its credit, whereas the penitentiary books showed over $4,000. An investigation was at once begun. Wednesday afternoon it was known positively that the accounts in the State Treasurer's office had been tam pered with, and ex-Treasurer Worth, under whom Martin was employed, was sent for. Further investigation Wednesday night revealed the charac ter of the fraudulent entries on the books and showed the shortage to be near $4,000 in the penitentiary ac count alone. The other accounts asylums and the like that Martin had charge ol have not yet been checked over. Yesterday morning Treasurer Lacy, as stated in the Governor s message, sent for Maj. Martin and confronted him with the charge of having embez zled the State's funds and falsified the books. He confessed that he had done so. His speculations, he said, were solely from the penitentiary fund at d amounted to $3,800. This amount, he 8tated,had been taken at various times, from March 1st to November 20th, 1900, and tbat he had secured it by falsifying books and raising vouchors and then drawing a check for the dif ference. He added : "Nothing wrong has oeen done dur ing the time I was in office under y u, Mr. Lacy. All the money was Xal tn between March and November of last year, ween Mr. worm was ireaeirer. Since yon have been in office I have drawn one check for about $1,200, but it was to cover an cmount taken be fore you came in." Asked as to what he had done with the money, Maj. Martin said he had given it to the poor widows and or phans and to the church. He 'de clared fhat he had not used it in per sona! expenses, but that he had been giving in charity until be found he was bihind and be took the money to tide over his embarrassment. He added ; 'I expected at first to be able Jrtf cover it hack into the Treasury, and I expect now if I can ever do so to pay back the last cent. It was not my in tention to do otherwise than borrow it." : He said the books were not changed until after the legislative committee m . a m bad madeitsexaminatiouin Dacember. Then he began, be says, making the changes necessary to cove th3 am ounts he bad taken. Early yesterday afternoon Maj. Mar tin was arrested and taken before Jus tice of the Peac8 Marcein, v.h?re he was arraigned on a warrant sworn cut by John P. Arrington, his successor in the Treasurer's office. The warrant charges embezzlement under section 1014 ot The Code. The defendant waived examination and was bound over to the next term of Wake Superior court (March 25th) in a bond of $4,000. Treasurer Lacy was at the tiial with his iiltornej', Mr. S. F. Mordecai. On account of the public importance of the ca?e, Mr. Mordecai also called in Solicitor Armistead Jones. Maj. Mar tin had no attorney. After the trial he expressed great fear of being unable to give a $4,000 bond and having to go to jail, and talked pitifully ot his condition. Treasurer Lacy then agreed, in view of the confession and surrender of tha de fendant, that the bond lo reduced to $2,000 justified. Ex-State Treasurer Worth, speaking .f Maj. Martin's offense, said : "I was never so surprised iu my1 lif as I was yesterday afternoon whon Treasurer Lacy called ma to his office and told me Msj. Martin had embezzl ed the funds in his charge and falsified the book. I had always trusted hnn most impiicity, considered him perfect ly honest and it was hard for me t i realize thai he was oiLerivise." "How did he manage to get the money acd escape detection ior so long a time? was ssked. "According to his confession, he took the money along during 1; et year," replied Mr. Worth, "but it was not until since the investigating com mittee had completed its work in De cember that he began to alter the books and vouchers. And this is the way he would do it. Tako for instance pl,003 CG,thi3 would be made $1,G03.C6 simply by changing a 0 to a 6, and be would be in $G00. He did that. An other case was the change ot $110 lo $110, by turning the figure 1 into a nuro 4. ply orawa a bring it to me r Mr. Denmark and we would sign U without question, s great was our confidence in him." Mr. Worth said his (Worth's bond was liable for the shortage, but that he bad a bond from Martin in the United States Guaranty and Fidelity Company represented here by Mr. A. W. Moye. This bond u in the amount of $5,0i)0 and coyers all liabilities from January 23, 1909 to January 23 1901. Counterfeits of DeWitt's Witch Ha zel Salve are liable to cause blood poi soning.
