From the Mountaineer, Colorado Springs.
On Friday last we received call from
Mr.. l.. Allen, an elderly gentleman from
Rochester, \. Y, who came to Colorado
about a year ago. By the advice of ply
sicians Mr.. Allen was instructed to keep
III the open air as much as possible, and
50 has travelled extensively through
southern Colorado, prospecting and view
ing the country. He gave Us the partic-
ulars Of strange discovery he made on
one of his trips, but declines at present
to state the exact locality. mentioning
only that it was some distance south
from Pueblo. At the place mentioned
several large mounds OF foothills appear
rising from the plains and situated some
distance from the mountains Mr. Allen
visited these, and the first thing peculiar
he noticed was what appeared to be a pet
rified cocoanut. 1t was much larger
than the ordinary fruit of this kind but
almost perfect in formation. The three
eyes of a cocoanut were plainly to be
seen. On breaking open the strange
stone or petrifaction, the shell appeared
perfect, being some half inch in thick
ness, and the inside was composed of
white crystal quartz Mr. Allen con-
tinued his investigations and discovered
a number Of other specimens similar to
the first; also others resembling other
kinds of fruits. Some Of these con-
tanned what appeared to be seeds en-
bedded In quartz. Specimens of petrifed
wood in large quantities were also found.
The mounds or hills appeared to be made
up of loose, sandy soil, and shells were
found in great variety and quantity.
The strangest part of the discovery,
however, was yet to come. In digging
into the side of the hill Mr.. Allen I'M
earthed what seemed to be a perfectly
petrified sea turtle, and before closing
his Investigations about dozen of these
were discovered. He described them to
us as being almost perfect, and no doubt
appears to remain in his mind but that
they are genuine petrifactions of sea tur-
ties such as are found in the Pacific.
From the numerous specimens OF shells
that are found at various places on the
plains, and numbers Of which can be
found and are found in this vicinity,
many persons are led to believe that the
great plains on which we live were at
one time the bed of an immense ocean,
and this discovery would tend to confirm
that theory Would not these mounds
mentioned by Mr. Allen appear as if they
were at one time islands in this ocean,
where trees and fruits had grown, and on
whose shores sea turtles had found q
home? We learn that several gentlemen
of this city, to whom Mr.. Allen has dis
closed his discovery, propose accompany
ing him in a wagon to the scene of his ex-
>plorations and bringing with them some

A Petrified Oyster.
Puget Sound Express

In the inside of great lump of coal
taken out of the Seattle mine recently,
was found an oyster of whole and per-
feet shape. It was nearly three. inches
long, hinged, filled and fully shelled.
The only thing about it different from
the ordinary oyster was that it had been
turned by one of natures processes into
coal itself How it came there, hun
dreds of feet beneath the surface of the
earth, imbedded in a substance that is
supposed to have been formed, though
stationary in position, for thousands of
years, is a query over which some men
would rack their brains for some time to
answer
