On Prehistoric Life
In Wyoming,
Friday.
Subject one of Exceeding Inter.
est. and was Ably
Handled

Prof. w. H. Reed, curator of
the museum and assistant geolo-
gist at the University of Wyoming,
arrived here last Friday evening
and lectured to a large and inter
ested audience in the Presbyter-
ian church Saturday evening. His
lecture was on "Prehistoric Life in
Wyoming" and was illustrated
with stereoptican views, showing
the bones and skeletons of the
reptillian and mammalian families
nearly all of which had been dug
out of the earth here in the state
by the professor himself.
Mr.. Reed began his lecture with
a picture of the earth's strata as it
exists and has been classified by
biologists. Beginning with the
granite, supposed to be the earliest
formation, for no sign of life is
found in it, he traced the first APP
pearance of life on earth up to the
Marene Jurasic, where he began
the illustration of his lecture with
slides.
The professor said that Wyoming
as well as the entire west, had
been a low, marshy country, with
a tropical climate; that all kinds
OF early reptiles, little AS well as
blg-some of them weighing lOO,-
700 pounds-had existed during
the Mesozoic period, and that the
bones of hundreds of species we're
to be found in many parts of the
state. He said that camels were
especially plenty here at one time
and that thousands of skeletons
could now be had in Uinta county
also that he had picked up the
Jaw bone of "A camel in II butte five
or six miles below town, along the
river bank, and one from the SAND
over in the vicinity of Elk Noun
