A number of slabs of car- botilfurotis samlMono were obtained with sllpple marks and very bceiutlful Impres sions ot leaves on them , BOIIIO of the latter as exquisitely limned im though carved with anfngraver's tool or cut by the photoR- rapher'H lens. Of course , however , the gnat objective of the trip was the vertfl- brato rcnulns , found llrst at Lake ( " 01110 , Aurora , In the massive ledges of sandstone which.rlfo In successive tiers nt thla point. The landscape seemed familiar to UR as we cnhiped at the foot of the ridge ono hot , dusty evening nt about C o'clock. Then we remembered. Professor Mnreh look out his great dinosaur ( now in rcatoratlon at Yale ) oin this exposure nnd afterward painted 10 suroundliiRs. The dinosaur was A Mlulily I.Unril , 'hoso reiiialtin are found plentifully peat- ereil throughout the cretaceous and Jurassic nland seas of Wyoming. It was probably land animal , though possibly It lived mphlblously on land and on frrsh water wamps , and perhaps even along the Hhorcs t the fjilt oceans. Prof. HIV | . in speaking f the monster discovered by him last year , aid : "An accurate Idea of ft living dinosaur Is traetlcally out of ( lie question. According o my oplulcn I should fay that the nnlmnl now being brought to light weighed In life ibout elxty tons , that he had a neck thirty eet In length and a tall perhaps sixty feet n length. Ills ribs are about nine feet In eiiRth and the cavity of his body , with the ungs and entrails out , would have made a lall thirty-four feet In length , sixteen feet n width nnd arched over probably twelve ect In height. Such a space , If properly arranged , would scat at least forty people. A round steak taken from the hum cf the animal would have been at least twelve cct In diameter , or moro than thirty-five eet in circumference , and would have had % solid bone lu Uio nilddlo twelve by four- oeu 'Inchco , with no hollow for marrow. V set of tout in cavalry could easily have Idilou < abreast 'between his front and hind egsprovided he had not objected. Every Imo Bo put his foot down It covered moro ban a square yard of ground and must lave- fairly shaken the earth. The small- icss of the head of this animal Is n peculiar thing. I should say that the head of this iilghty dinosaur was probably not larger than a ten-gallon keg. He must have been n very-'sluggish creature , as his brain cavity would .certainly not warrant the belief that that organ weighed to exceed four or live pounds. " ' Oilier Freak * . RemaUis of a number of other animals , mostly reptiles In tbelr nature with a few primitive mammals and 'birds are to bo bund In great profusion in these mesozolc : beds of the west. It is believed by scien tists that these animals Inhabited the an cient lakes and swamps by the myriads and , In dying , sunk In the mud. Their bones were covered over with other de posits nnd became petrified. All through the long geological ages they lay sinking deeper and depper , until icovored with perhaps 20- 000 or 30,000 feet of solid rock. Then , in the titanic process of tbo birth ot the Rocky oiouritalns , the great surface "beds were tilted and twisted and bent upward , and , by erosion , the bones nro brought to light. Owing to its masslvcncss and ImrdncfS the bone most frequently found In the case of almost all fossil animals Is the femur , although rlb , skulls and vertebrae are also plentiful. Tlio second day cf the camp at Aurora the expedition icamo upon its first dinosaur bones. Mr. Edqulst and his as- ? lstaiUs. of Gustavus Adolphus college , Min nesota , discovered a great femur , six and n. half feet long , which they wcro able , by arduous and protracted labor , to excavate without much damage. A number of others bojies of all descriptions were obtained on tha expedition , the lull value of which cannot. , bo accurately estimate- ! until the pclcntistB.1 return to the laboratories and bo- Sin diS''woVk ot .restoration. Quito au In teresting and valuable collection of mineral specimens wcro also secured. There was n taxIdcrmlBt with the party , nnd ho can show a fine sot at specimens ot the bird llfu encountered on the trip. Mr. J. E. Cameron of Co'o college , Iowa , acted as botanist to the expedition nnd went homo laden with a collection of the rare and beautiful ( low ers which K row the prairies and deck the mountain uliltu.

Mvrly SiMirf. In closing I cannot resist the temptation to relate a llttlo Incident , As tlilo Is "on" the narrator as well as others , I presume ho will bo pardoned for the telling. Let me preface the story by ( toying that up to the time of the occurrence I refer to our ac quaintance with coyotes , those small wolves of the western plains , had "been coudnod to hearing thorn howl most dismally and blood- curdlnsly at about 4 o'clock in the morn ing not BO very far from the tent. The day I speak' , three of the party a man from California , n man from Minnesota and the writer , who hails from the "effete east , " wore exploring an old unused coal mine , In deed , only a hole in the ground where the railroad had been prospecting for coal , Tha California man had n. SprlnKllold rifle nnd a belt fairly bristling with cartridges , the man from .Minncnota wn equipped with a double- barreled whotgun and the other fellow had B six-shooter In his hip pocket. As wo crept along the low gallery o low In plscca that wo wcro almost forced to go on nil fouro suddenly there was a terrible howl which echoed throughout the narow spaces till It eoundod HKe a whole legion of demoiiH and something white and furry , with gleamIng - Ing cyra and red jmvu , dashed by UH out toward the entrance to the mine. The mighty hunters , guns , revolvers , and nil tumbled over ono another In headlong rout. Thu revolver went off promptly , with the result of causing the armor platlni ; pardon the stiff corduroy trousers of the deponent to be bent outward like the armor nn the ill-fated Maine , Upon our hurried exit wo wplfd a very tmall coyote , probably much nioro frightened tban we rscuddlng off over the plain. Then we redeemed our sportsmanship. Three firearms rang out Mmultancously though what was accom- pitched by the sbutKini and the revolver U IB hard to determine and Mr. Coyote went to Join the great company of former citizens cf Dearth whoso bleached nkelctons whiten the"trail from Wyoming to Utah.

In their tinmcdlnto vicinitythe greater part of the world's production of zinc Is initial.

"AH the. characters attracted by etorlea of fabulous wealth to bo gained by tbo zlno miners , and who usually Hock to n mining camp ot any description , are. to bo found In Joplln. Some ot them have inotipy , but moro frequently the 'boomers' are suf fering from a limited po-wssloii of this ne - eRsary article. In the towns , however , money Is frco and easy.

Now the royalty on forty acres of this tract amounts to $50,000 per year at the rate ot 7 % per cent. On tlila same mineral belt there are slnglo-ncro loU of 200 feet square that have produced In royalties , with no expcnao to the owners , over $100,000. A single mine , nlno years ago , sold for $325. Three years ago It sold for $14,000 , and the present own ers have Just refused $000 per aero for the forty acres. "At .Galena , about ten miles from Webb City , the entlro tract was traded for a pony not many years ago. Eight acres of thla have paid the owner a royalty ot over $200- 000 nnd nn olRhty-acro tract adjoining has made the owners Immensely rich , having paid them over $500,000 royalty.
