These discoveries are revealing almost a thrill a minute to the ectentific world. ‘They have discovered there sharks’ teeth indicating a mouth from nine to 11 feet in width, 12 to 15 feet from jaw to jaw, and maybe 18 fect deep. The stomach of such an animal would have had a length of 28 feet and a diameter of 18 feet Such a shark would have weighed more than 200,000 pounds tf he were formed similarly to present day sharks, and he would have required tons of flesh daly as food. Sharks—hungry sharks—and other Genizens of the deep may be seen now in the most realistic, thrilling undersea drama which this city has ever had the good fortune to look upon, at the Wyoming theater today.

The rendezvous of the “ring” is a Mexican cantina or cafe and the evildoers are played by the best ““bad en” on the ecreen—Edwin Stevens, Jean Her. sholt, Alan Hale, Noah Beery, Frank Campeau, Lionel Belmore, Dick Sutherland, Jack Curtis and James A.
