is only in a few places that the
bones can be found here on hump

of the geological party differ in opin-

convincing both ways, SO you see that
men who make a study of these
things have to guess at some Of
them. The thing that stalls some
of them is the petriied wood on

IN GEOLOGICAL RESEARCH.
bones of Great Monster Animals
Discovered in Hills on Standing
Rock Reservation.


A geological research party, con-
nected with the United States gov
eminent, is at work exploring the
Hills in the Standing Rock reserva-
ton, and in the immediate vicinity
of where Henry Swindler of Yankton
is working with a party Of apprais-
ers of the Indian lands.
At odd times Mr.. Swindler has
been with the geological party, and
in a letter to a friend in Yankton4
he gives a description of the things
discovered. A portion of his letter
is quoted below:
Yesterday we found a bone that
was ossitied, and 1t has been lying
in the ground, so the biologists say,
100000 years. According to their
estimate this bone was the thigh
bone of the animals that roamed
over this country that long ago. They
claim that an elephant would appear
about the size of a calf in comparison
to a full grown elephant. The geol-
ogists claim these animals belonged
to the %rhinoceros family, they hav-
ing three horns on the nose. Today
we spent an hour digging in a shale
bank on top of a hill. This she'll
cropping runs for two miles along
the brakes of seventeen mile creek,
ove the other. The top one is
about three feet thick, and the lower
from a few inches to 5 feet thick.
The top layer is soft water shells
and the lower one Of the salt water
variety. There is about 100 feet
difference between the top and the.
lower shells. It certainly looks
queer to e such a formation in.
this country. Around our camp the
ground seems to be filled with Gu
rios, and the geological party has
taken out tons of this stun and ship
ped it to Washington to be placed in
museums.
There is no difference in opinion
as to the time when the coal and
animals here, but which one
was first seems to be all somewhat
of a guess, but it looks to me that
they were all here at the same time
or that the wood that made the coal
was destroyed at same time the an
finals were. There is a layer of clay
about 100 feet under the coal in
which the bones are concealed but
I do not think this has anything to
dos with the situation, because II
stands to reason that there were sup.
heavels Of The earth before that
time and exposed this formation.
