Archie 1'rown vrssa traveling' tltrough the woods near a creek when he uis-ov-crcd a horn ytlckinrt out of the fi le of 'a hank. He tried to pull it ont but could Hot and t-omuHtnced Aisrein lud-t'tixlly rearbe.1 the head of the ttuitual and found the horn to be six feet lon' and tavlve inches in diameter two feet-from the head. He cot assistance and exhum ed tlie cthet horn, the beai, some of tho ribs and the left foreleg of tbe animal, which waa seven Xeet .under hard lay. Its under jaw bone measures two and a half feet across and three fiwtf'lon. The head, from top to tip Of nosers five feet and is three feet betaeen the eyes. 1 la Mt fortl- jj bone frout tbe kuoc joyit to the sh ulUer blulo joint is f:ti lett and masurei eight inch'-s in ilf.im-U-r at tho kne-e jnint. The other part of the leg crumbled, so it conhi not be mensmS ed. The r mainins; part of the skeleteu has not be n unearthed, but a strict puard is kept over it. rSouie eu4?;--et that, it is the skeleton of a msatodou and lived during the cirb&nifcroU3 ae, but its si :e and shape does not bear ' out that id.-.' Its horns and bead resemble a frost's. The wholo skeleton will bo exhumed. J' lld Not nowors.
