The young ladies of the town gave a
very enjoyable Leap Year Ball at the
Opera House Thursday night aud it
was just up-to-date, At 9 oTclock the
couples began to arrive and soon the
merry laughter of the dancers, was
heard~on all ~sides, It was the ladiesT
opportunity and well did they use it.
We heard a lot of noise on the side near
tthe stage and it sounded like the pop
ping of champagne corks and turning
to Bo. Cherry we asked what it was,
and were informed that the ladies were
popping the question. We only said
oOh!�
At 10 o'clock the grand march took
place led by Miss Eva OTHagan and
Maj. C. 'T. Lipscomb, of Clifton, 8. C.,
the and manoeuvering was beautiful.
The following couples were in atten-
dance :
Miss Annie Foley and W. B. James:

The german followed and was led by
MissT Eva ©THagan and Maj. Lips-
comb, music by the harpers. An ele-
gant supper was had at 12. o'clock.
There were three proprosals made and |,
accepted, which we think was doing
very well as a staster.
House was beautifully decorated with
bunting, holly, myrtle and moss.
There were a goodly namber of spec-
tators present and they seemed to en-
jey it immensely, | :
Who soars to meet the sun,
And tries exulting unto Thee,
O Lord, Thy will be done.
When tyrant feet are trampling
Upon the common weal,
Thou dost not bid us bend and writhe
Beneath. the iron heel.
In Thy name we assert our right
By sword or tongue or pen,
And even the headsmanTs ax may flash
Thy message unto nien.
It bids the strong be just ;
No lip, to fawn, no hand to, beg,
No'brow to seek the dust.
Wherever man oppresses man
- Beneath Thy liberal sun. .
O Lord, be there. Thine arm made bare,
Thy righteous will be done!

THE QUEEN. DISPLEASED.
It now appears that. Lord Salisbury
has greatly displeased Queen Victoria
Flem-
the United States in. the Venezuelan
matter, and a cablegram states that Her
Majesty has not hesi{ated to.so express
herself to His Lordship.
oShe does not: think the attitude of
consistent with a
Christian nation, and that the refusal to
arbitrate a matter of such comparative
insignificance is not setting a good ex-
ample to less civilized nations.�
The writer, who is a distifiguished
authority in London, says that'she has
expressed her displeasure at the. belli-
gerent tone of SulisburyTs reply to See-
retary OlneyTs note, and declares that
he should have kept her informed ot
the status of the cass. In addition to
this, Sir Franeis Knollys, Secretary to
the Prince of Wales, cables the New
York Work, in answer to an inquiry
of Mr. Pulitzer, expresing in the name
of the Prince and the Duke of York,
that othey carnestly trust, and cannot
but believe, the present crisis will be ar-
ranged in a manner satisfactory to both
countries, and will. be succeeded by the
same warm feeling of friendship which
has enceg between them for so phany
years.� :
The Queen desires that the closing
days of her reign should see England
at peace with all the world and ~looks
with Korror upon war,
As she grows older she desires that
England should set an example of Chris-
tian forbearance. to otherT nations:and
to exalt herself.as the ideal of civili-

The Greenville Lumber Company.
A recent visit to the plant of the
above company showed a marked im-
provement over theold mill. The band
saw, now in use by them, is as come
plete as it is possible to make: them.
The saw is § of an inch in thickness,
while the old cirenlar saw was } of an}
inch, thereby saving one board in the}
cutting of ten. Any size log can be
out and they can cut a, third faster.
It only takes tour miuutes to chahge a
saw and it runs three hours and a half.
They can sharpen one in half an hour.|)

in natural co }
probably ante g:
ance of man on the earth, That is
an old story, bot this is the first |-
known instance in which the soft
parts of a beast of this species have
been found on the American conti-
nent, It iseasy to imagine the scien-
tific interest attaching to the discov-
ery.
Ages ago this mammoth died un-
der such circumstances that-its cor-
pus was buried in mud. At about
that time there was a great and per-
manent change in the temperature
of circumpolar regions. The climate
had been subtropical. It suddenly
became frigid. The mammoths were
literally ~~frozen out,� the last of
: | the species perishing of cold. This
particular individual, frozen in a
bank of. clay, had every prospect of
~~keepingTT for an indefinite period.
Hundreds of centuries later a
stream flowing through an Alaskan
valley tackled the clay bank refer.
red to and began to cut it away. At
length some big bones stuck out;
and a native of exceptional courage
dug. out one or twoof them. This
required more of that quality known
in civilized countries as ~~nerve�T
than might be imagined, for strange
monsters, howeverT Jong they may
have been dead, are regarded-with
~Supersitious awe by savages.
However, the natives finally sum.
moned courage enough to drag the |
remains of the mammoth out of the
clay bank piecemeal. The body of:
the animal had been preserved so
well that 4, fairly, perfect cagt.of . it
was found in the matrix. A quanti-
ty of fat, which overlay the, intes-
tines, wasT obtained and was used
for greasing boats. Dr. Dall secured
a piece of it and. fetched it back to
Washington.
In the office of Osteologist Fred-
erick A, Lucas, at tho National mu-
seuw, is a Mammoth's molar tooth,
to which an odd story is attached.
It was got. from a spring at Paso
Verde, in the country of the Papago
Indians. are so many centuries
ago a ma in-its dying agonies
sought that Nanehi for water and
fell into it, too weak to climb out.
There its bones remain to this day,
and the Indians believe that.if they
were removed the spring would dry
up. Of course such an event in that
region means the destruction of a
village. :
Mastodon bones, of- course, are
frequently dug up in the United
States. The mastodon was a kind
of elephant, but it did not belong to
the genus élephans. The mammoth
did not belong to ~that genus, being
