Atthat meeting | assured Stone I was not a candidate for national committeeman, as had been reported and if hedesired tosucceed himself on the committee I would be pleased to support him. Every St. Louis paper contained interviews with him on the subject the day following the confer- ence. To one hesaid: “*Yes, [saw Governor Stephens at the Planters’ House yesterday. He said that the recent publications to the effect that he would for national committeeman were ut- terly groundless, but onthecontrary, he said he favored me for the place if I desired it.

Stone and Copper Implements and the Skeleton of a Man Found in Exca- vations in Wyoming. Denver, Col. March 15.—John L. Stein, owner of the Chicago mine, sit uated near Hartville, Wyo., passed through Denver this week on his way to Moberly, Mo. He claims to have located what will prove more valuable to archeo- logists than the highest grade gold mine. It is said to be the only pre- historic mine ever uncovered. The workings, tunnels, drafts and levels ramify an area of over one mile square and the abandoned ground is rich with implements of both the copped and stone ages. The system of tunneling must have been through some process lost ages ago. for there is no indication of drilling or blast- ing. In exploring a cave in Whalen Can- yon, adjoining the mine, he found the bones of a man, evidences that the man was not only a cave-dweller, but had companions in that rocky for- tress. There was tier apartment. The bones were disconnected. Mr. Stein had the skull sent to the Smithsonian Institution: the arm bones and other parts of the anat- omy were brought to the cabin. a sleeping discovered cane = d You Have Aways Bough ——— ss Lapiiete It has been benud necessary to cut down the wages of the workmen the Pullman Sleeping Car shops at Chicago.
