FOSSILS FROM THE WEST
Tale Eapcdltloa H re area Tktrc Tons
from Flads ia Nebraska aad
Wioalsg.
The Vala geologists who havo been ex
ploring tha western part of the country
the past summer for specimens have re
turned to Poabody museum, bringing with
them three tons of fosHtls. This is thu tivst
expedition sent out from Yale In fifteen
yeara.
Prof. R. 8 Lull, who is Yale's authority
on vertebrate puleunthology. and Hugh'
Ulbb. who has chaise of all the prepara-j
lory wora uii wv t"-1-Mtuumcu i
tho museum, bmded the expedition that left
New Haven for Luk, Wyo., on June 12.
Tha first Yale geological camp was estab
lished' at Spanish Diggings, in Laramie
county, near Laramlo Peak, where the sur
rounding country U rich in Indian relics.
According to tfe geologists, it was in this j
realon that the predecessors of the modern J
Sioux Indians roamed in prehistoric times,
the remains of their populous villages being
found in the form of circles of stones by
means of which the skin coverings of their
tepees or lodges were kept in position.
Stone implements usod In those times are
abundant there and after two days' pros
pecting the Yale scientists collected some
500 f)f these specimens.
.As the Yale party was primarily in search
of vertrbiate fossils, the Yale camp was
soon removed to the valley of the Big
Muddy creek. In the sandstone of which
are to be fiiund the bones of the ancient
plains-dwelling animals, mainly camels,
rhinoceroses and oreodonts, tho last being
a species of hoofed creatures possessing
certain characteristics of the ruminants
and the pigs, which have no present day
relatives.
Camps were also established beida the
Niobrara river, upon the Cook ranch,
through whose courtesy the Yale explorers
were permlifcd to dig for fossils In the
Agate isprlHg quarries, which contain the
most remarkable assemblage of fossil bones
thus far discovered in tho world. Hero the
Yale geologists unearthed skeletons of two
or more very young twin-born rhinoceros,
one of which will probably be mounted
and placed In the Pes body museum, besides
numerous bones of moropus. a form allied
to the odd-toed ungulates, and remains of
the dinohyua, a giant pig standing six feet,
next In sise to the elephants.
The "Devil's Corkscrew" was one of the
Interesting finds of the Yals Investigators,
two very fine specimens of this fossil plant
being brought back to tho museum by them.
This is described as a fossil plant, or
fllled-ln burrow of a primitive rodent, a
progenitor of the up-to-date beaver. '
Several specimens of a primitive camel
about the else of a sheep was also, secured
through the courtesy of Prof. F. B. Loomis
of Amherst, who directed the Yale explor
ers to a spot somewhat removed from tho
famous agate quarries, where skeletons of
a part of a herd had been unearthed.
While then two Yals professors were
gathering specimens of vertebrate fossils.
Prof. Charles Schuchert. curator of the
Peabody museum, was likewise prospecting
for invertebrate fossils at the Island of
Antlcostl, In the Gulf of St. Lawrence.
From there Prof. Schuchert during th.)
summer gathered more than 1,000 pounds
of fossils, which will be placed also In the
museum collection. The museum also re
ceived as tho result of a summer's work
of one of the students, V. H. Twenhefel,
'08, nine boxes of specimens from the
Arlsalg coast of Nova Scotia. Theae are
illustrations of the marine life of Silurian
time in the St. Lawrence region.
When the new specimens collected tiiis
year have been assorted, registered and
placed on exhibition, Yalo will have a big
display as a result or the first summer
spent In research since the days of the
late Prof. Marsh, who contributed tons of
fossils to the museum. Another addition
to the collection has Just baen presented
to the museum. This is tha skull of an
Inta, who lived In the second era of
Peruvian civilization. The skull was un
earthed in a buria.lplot that had not been

Jaaaes Falat.
The world Is not so very small after all.
The other day I glanced casually over
the register of a hotel and read tho name
'Klnch West Johnson." It may be that I
was the only man In New York outside the
person who signed tho register that would
have taken an Interest In tho signature,
and yet Klncb 'West was on the point of
putting my light out once. He was an In
dlaa territory character In tho early '70s,
and stopped a night with mo when I was a
boy and living under the parental roof.
and he Interested me greatly by telling me
of his adventures In the southwest.
Five years later I was riding on a rail
way train , approaching Dennlson, Tex.,
and I saw him. Being young and foolish. 1
hit him on the back and said: "Hello, Mr.
West! I'm glad to see you." Say, Klnch's
smoke wagons were all over me in a min
ute. Until he recognised me he scowled,
and after that he laughed heartily. At Den
nlson he wrung my hand and said: "Good
by, boy and don't say anything about my
being here."
Naturally, I hunted up Klnch West John
son, and what do you suppose he was? A
drummer. A mild-mannered boy. who was
glad to acknowledge that the' redoubtable
Klnch West was bis grandfather. And he
confessed to me that he bad never owned
a gun In hla Ufa
One story of this kind leads to another.
I recalled Frank James almoat as soon
as I had listened to young Johnson's story
of how little use ho had for a gun. About
fourteen years ago I happened to be present
at the fair grounds In St. Louis when Frank
James, along with a number of others, was
vaccinated In obedience to the law. Frank
fainted as soon as the knife went Into his
flesh.
I ought not have looked," he ex
plained to me. "I never could bear tho
sight of blood." New York Telegraph.
