Thirty-Foot Horse, !.
The Industrious delivers Of science
have unearthed in Wyoming the fossil
remains Of horse thirty feet long and
more than thirty feet high. How long
ago he lived we are left to conjecture,
thousands, perhaps d million, years
since this Gigantic equine stepped &C
but doubtless it has been hundreds OF
cross ridges and treams to Craze off the
tops of primordial trees. Whether he
was race horse with track record or
used as a draught animal by the cor
responding man giants of those ages is
rot tated. But we have the ckeleton
before us and know that he existed,
where now the patient b,rro pulls his
load and the stoli1 mule make his way
through the mountains mists. Presum-
! ing that this prehsoric horse belonged
to the cave jewellers, it is interesting to
reflect how they managed their matodo

his long legs and longer neck were not

painstaking paleontology. Only the ex-
