FLYING REPTILES OF OLD.
OF Great Size, They were once More
Common Than Birds.


We are apt to think Of reptiles as
creeping and crawling things, forget
ting that there was a time when flying
dragons, not only few, but some Of
them reached a size much greater
than that of any bird, for the largest
birds do not fly. The South American
condor sometimes measures as much
as ten and one-half feet from tip to
tip OF outstretched wings, and II is
quite possible that the finest examples
of the albatross may measure a little
more. But the great pterodactyl which
few about the sea that in the days Of
old reached from the Gulf Of Mexico
to the Rocky Mountains, measured as
much as twenty feet, the width of an
average city lot, across the wings.
Most Of us have seen an eagle fly-
ing, and we can appreciate the size Of
this ancient dragon by remembering
that II was nearly three times the size
of an eagle. II was not, however three
times as heavy for the body of this
strange reptile was so small and its
skeleton so wonderfully light that the
entire animal is thought to have
weighed not more than twenty-five
pounds, or only about as much as a
large condor One Of the largest bones

PENITENT FRENCH
BISHOP TN ROME
Pontiff Comforts Weeping Prelate
Who Precipitated Breach
with Vatican.

Rome, Aug. 30.-The pope received
today in private audience Mgr. Geay,
bishop Of Laval, France, who ex-
planned that, now that France has
severed her diplomatic relations with
the Vatican, he had no more reason
to abide by Premier Combes' instruc-
lions not to obey his summons to
Rome, and had hurried to the Vati-
can, wishing to demonstrate that he
is a victim of calumnies and that he
can prove his innocence Of the charges
brought against him. The bishop was
deeply moved, his tears flowing. The
pope kindly consoled and encouraged
him, saying that If the charges were
false, he will have all the assistance
necessary to prove himself innocent.
Bishop Geay is one of the French
bishops who were summoned to Rome
by the Vatican for trial or punish
ment, against which the French cabi-
net strongly protested, claiming that
the disciplining of bishops without
first consulting the wishes Of the gov
eminent was against the terms Of the
concordat. The Vatican's persever-
ance in the stand it had taken led to
the severance Of diplomatic relations
between France and the Vatican.

.SULTAN'S BROTHER
DEAD IN DURESS
Turkish Man With the Iron
Mask" Expires After Long
Years in Prison.

Constantinople, Aug. 30.-Former
Sultan Murad v. died yesterday Of dia-
betes, from which he had long suf-
fered.
It was reported in May last from vi
emma that Murad ", the thirty-third
sovereign Of the house OF Osman, was
dying and at the same time it was re-
ported from the same source that his
adherents all over Turkey, known as
the young Turks, were secretly arning
and only awaited the signal to rise in
insurrenction.
Murad ". was born in 1910 and
assembled the throne after the muir
der of the sultan Abdul Aziz, May,
1876. In July Of that year, Murad
was placed under the regency Of his
Hamid H., and on Aug. 81 he was de-
throned.
Outwardly this act was performed
| legally by the council Of ministers on
the ground that he was insane. The
real facts in the case, however, will
i:probably a,neyer be Known, but it has
| been claimed that Murad was q good
deal.more sane than his brother and
lone of the greatest terrors of Abdul
| Hamid's existence was the fear that
this Turkish imam with the iron
mask as he had been termed, might
escape from his place Of confinement
in the Cheragan palace, and some si1
years ago he was removed to the
Malta kiosk, in the grounds Of the
| Yildiz palace occupied by Abdul
Hamid, which Is surrounded by lofty
walls.
In spite Of the secrecy Of Murad's
| removal he was seen as he passed by
several foreigners who declared that
tho he had aged and was haggard in
appearance, the former sultan had not
lost his majestic bearing and that he
preserved the appearance Of a man In
4 the full possession Of his mental facul-
lties
/ The confinement of Murad has beer
Of the cruelest character, only his
jailers were allowed to see him. and
every precaution was taken to pre-
vent any intelligence Of what was go
! ing on In the outside world from
reaching him. Altho Murad is an
rounced to have died from diabetes
1t has generally been understood, &C.
cording to the palace reports, that he
was suffering from tuberculosis.

To prove her story, the girl exhib-

the pins and the burns Of the matches.
These were pronounced by the family
physician to be wounds evidently in

The police do not believe she would
