Tommy told Celestia of the fighting temper the strikers were in and Celestia told Tommy of Kehr's preparations for making the defense of the stockade a shambles of those who should attack it.

By GARRETT P. SERVISS.' The addition 'of a mounted skeleton of"that most extraordinary creature Che | arisonitherium to the Gallery of Fossll Mammals at the British Museum ot Natural ‘History marks an event of real importance. It is the only complete skeleton yet mounted, and it is, besides, one of the most remarkable animals in | that gallery of wonderful beasts. Slanding about six feet high at the | withers, it resembles, in its general ap- pearance, a rhinoceros. It differs, how- ever, entirely from this animal in the | singular armature of the head. In the | rhinoceros, it will be remembered, the snout is surmounted by a great horn, in the African species there are two horns, one behind the other. These differ entirely from the horns of ruminants, such ‘as antelopes and cattle, for instance, for in them these weapons are formed of bony outgrowths of the skull ensheathed in a horny case. In the rhinoceros the horns are formed of & solid mass of matted hairs, and have no supporting skeleton. The horns of the arisnoitherium were of the remi- nant type—that is to say, they were formed of bony outgrowths covered with a horny sheath. There were two pairs of these in this great beast—a huge pair, placed side by side above the eyes, and & much smaller palr between the eyes and ears. From the general bulld of the animal it 1s pretty certain that it was a browser, and conveyed food to its mouth by means of & long, prehensile lip. In i the shape of ia limbs, as may be seen Iin the skeleton, it resembled both the elephant and the rhinoceros—that is to | say, its legs were massive and plilar- !like. This 1s a common type of leg in animals with bulky bodies, and s no indication of kinship. There is one pes culler feature of this skeleton, however, for which no explanation is forthcoming. and that is the singular forwardly di- rected curvature of the ribs in the middle of the body. As to the precise relationship of this animal nothing is known, but it seems probable that it is distinctly related to the little dassies or rockconles which abound in Africa to this day. The discov- ery of the first remains of arsinoitherium made & great sensation some ten years ago. They were found in the Fayum, the |lake province of Egypt, occupying & de- | pression in the desert to the west of the Nile valley, some seven-and-fifty miles south of Cairo. Ages ago this district was occupled by & huge lake surrounded by vast jungles swarming with a host of strange beasts long since extinat. Some of these, since | they were contemporaries of arisinoithe- |rium, deserve speclal mention here, First land foremost come the primitive ele- phants discovered by Dr. Charles An- drews of the British Museum. The earliest of these which appeareéd on the scene | while arsinoitherfum was yet in the making was the little moeritherium, a creature of about the size of a large pig, and bearing no resemblance to an ele- phant whatever. This was succeeded by the palacomastodon. This may be de- |scribed as a plgmey elephant, but differing | conspicuously from the elephants of to- |day in having the lower jaw prodigiously prolonged and armed at the tip with a | pair of short, chisel-like teeth. ‘The upper jaw bore & pair of short tusks destined to achieve huge size in the dis- tant ‘future. The descendants of this s0 much when & ball game?’ —Wash- | the matter with it l “I don't kmow." replied the woman who was pushing a baby ““Why does Il man become so grief-stricken when the home team loses ington Star. creature migrated from Africa into Asia and Burope, where the lower jaw under- went further lengthening, while the up- per fusks increased In size. Later, still, the lower jaw underwent & shortening process, till at last the curlously truncated \lower jaw, typcial of the modern ele- !phant, came into being, Then a return to i the old haunts in Africa took place, but |not before the whole of Europe had been invaded by their wandering hordes. The same fossiliferous deposits which 'have yielded such beautifully preserved remains of arsinoitherium, also entombed remains of the forerunners of the dugongs and the whales. These last are of immense interest, for none but the expert would see In these remains any likeness to the creatures we know as | whales. | They were comparatively small, long- snouted animals, and had the jawe armed with large, curlously serrated teeth. Hereln they differ conspicuously from the Iteeth of modern whales, which resemble in shape those of crocodiles. Furher- more, the skull was or & muen simpie type. Of the rest of these animals at present, we know nothing. How vast arc the chanses which this rogion of Africa has undergone may be gathered from the fact that, besides the primitive whales, remains of sharks and rays have been found there. When the sea retreated, dense, Well-watered for- ests came into being, forming the nursery for hosts of animals long since extinct, or represented today by descendants transformed, some into glants, some into dwarfs, as the “struggle for existence' dotermined, From the evidence of its fossils, it seems clear that before the continent of Afyica took its final shape, it was more or less directly connected with South America. These fossils show us that what 18 now a burning desert was once a streaming forest, and before this, was the hunting ground of sharks. The days of arsinoitherium date somewhere about the middle of these tremendou ings. Epicurean How to Prepare the | ‘| By DOROTHY LIX.
