HORSE EVOLUTION
American Museum of Natural History
Finds Missing Link

AT last the chain of equine evolution
is complete. After years of search. and
just when all hope of success had been
abandoned, the American Museum of
Natural History, New York, has been
rewarded by the discovery oil remains
of the mountain horse" or Orohippus
This discovery fills in the last gap in the
record which science has long endeav
ored to make perfect.
The museum began its explorations in
1901 under the direction of Prof Henry
h. Osborn, curator of the department of
vertebrate paleontOlogy, with a trip to
the Big Horn basin of northern Wyom-
ing. The expenses were betrayed from
a fund contributed by the late William
Q. Whitney. At his death these special
explorations had to cease, the hunt for
fossil horses is now carried on in con-
junction with that for other fossil ami
mails. until some equally philosophical
horse lover comes forward to continue
it distinctively.
The locality around Fort Bridger.
Wyo, was carefully searched for fossils,
but particularly for the mountain
horse" fragments of which had been
found and named by Prof. Marsh in
1872. Parties sent out by the American
museum visited this region in 1893 and
1925, and from 1908 to 1905, but in
spite OF the most indefatigable efforts
AhS CA0AiHHha int SGhENneESs
had begun to look as though the at
tempt to locate his skeleton would have
TO be given up as hopeless, when on the
very last day of the final expedition of
1905. just when the party was about to
return, the long looked for remains were
unearthed. These consisted of the skull
backbone, limbs and other parts of the
skeleton of the very stage wanted
The find has not been publicly an
nounced heretofore, and 1t will be some
time before the museum has ready its
exhibit, showing every stage of horse
evolution, beginning when the ancestors
of the horse of today was about the size
of an Irish terrier. The musedm has
already classified the fossils of the horse
previously found in various localities in
the western part OF the United States,
and will thus be able now TO place be-
fore the public a complete ocular record
of equine evolution from the early days
of the Eocene period, estimated Mt three
million years ago, down to the present
time.
The museums latest discovery Is of the
greatest Importance, not only because it
viii make these records more complete,
but also because it may lead to the veri-
fcation of the theory that the horse
originated in this country. Prof. Osborn
will make a thorough examination of
these remains and his conclusions are
awaited with a great deal of interest.

A rather cynical joke has been recently
credited to Senator Plat.
The senator, on his last visit TO the
Manhattan Beach hotel allowed pretty
little girl, a western millionaire's daugh-
Ter, to be presented to him.

her many delightful chats with the aged
statesman, said:

ltical economy isl"
Political economy, my dear child"
Senator Platt replied, lis the art of never

need. - Cincinnati Enquirer.

MATHEMATICS AND MANIA.

Two distinguished Londoners have
been engaged this week in an interest
ing contest. The Earl of Rosslyn is
perhaps the most prominent man OBJ
sessed with the idea that he had a
System" which would break the
bank at Monte Carlo" He has prac-
ticed it long. He has tried 1t at Monte
Carlo. He has almost won with it..
But there were certain drawbacks to
it's complete test there. Therefore he
may thank Sir Henry Maxim, who is
an eminent mathematician in addition
to being an inventor of means for
keeping down the population, for Civ
ing him the opportunity he has
lacked,
Sir Hiram has figured the exact
margin by which the bank at Monte
| Carlo will always win-assuming as
most of those who should know ad-
NIT, that the game is fair. 1t is a
small margin, to be sure, but it has
| served to make Monte Carlo the great
| electric lamp around which the
moths of all the earth f1utter and
invariably leave their offerings. Sir
| Hiram proposed to prove to the
| satisfaction of the earl in test so
| tair that there can be no mistake
that no system which ever has or ever
can be devised, can overcome the con-
stitutional lead which the bank has
more than once in two billion chances
He may succeed in demonstrating
this to the satisfaction of the earl
but Monte Carlo trembles not. What
| have the demonstrations of colo
mathematics to do with the hot mad
ness of the gambling passion? What
though the gambler has only a chance
in two billion to win? He is always
the man with the chance. And Ie
him seem to win or let him lose, it i.
all one in the blinded vision of mania
| No, mathematics can never win the
contest with mania, not even as otter
as the mania can win from the COLI
machine behind the wheel, which
knows the chances exactly, and it il
to all purposes perfectly safe

is made in perfecting aeroplanes and
other flying machines the scientihc

to which these inventions may be put.

Immediately looked upon as valuable
aids in case of war between countries
and for this reason the problem OF
their destruction is one which Will be
worked out as earnestly and as scien-
tifically as is that of their construction
If the air vessels had been intended
for service only in peaceful vocations
there would be no desire to learn now
they may be destroyed. but as they are
destined to be birds of war as well as
of peace, it is only natural that the
war departments of the various ma
tions should seek the means OF their
destruction. The immediate EFFORTS
however, will be for the completion
and perfection of air vessels which
will do the work for which they are
intended. and in these efforts the men
who later may be aiming for their an
initiation will be foremost in the work
of perfecting the inventions.
