Cats Of lono Aqo.

The piercing and cutting teeth Of
some Of the cats of long ago are the
most perfectly adapted instruments for
cutting purposes that ever were seen,
being unequaled by any manufactured
tools for such uses. For example, there
was the ''gomphodus," which was as
big as the largest panther and had two
teeth in its upper jaw resembling dag.
gers each five inches In length AS
weapons for penetrating flesh they are
unrivaled among carnivorous animals,
recent or extinct. They are rather like
the teeth Of some huge flesh eating d.
nosaurs, the terrible reptiles" Of the
mesozoic epoch, which had cutting
teeth that nothing could resist. Doubt.
lees this creature was inconceivably
bloodthirsty. Quite az fierce, however,
and even more formidable by reason
OF its greater size, was the contempo-
rafy '.pogonodon.'' which was as large
% the biggest jaguar.

MYSTERY
 IN NEW YORK
Police Believe They are on. Trail of ''Gang" That
 Did Deed.
Especial from United Press.

V T
 New York, June 11.-Police Inspector McCafferty declared this afternoon that he has reason to believe that he will have the murderers of Samuel Bersin. the young painter whose dis membered body was found in the streets last night, under arrest within twelve hours. His men are now mak- ing a canvass of the sweat shops of the East Side to locate where the body was cut up. The evidence in their possession indicates the killing was a gang murder
 Three homeless men, who found the head under the Brooklyn bridge this morning, are in the House of Deten- ton as witness although the police ad- init they know nothing about the case. The police theory is that a woman was at the bottom of the killing. There is also a possibility that rob- bery may have been the motive as money and jewelry Bersin was known to have had in his possession was insisting.

After that she swore, Gould paid her 8, coo a month. Nico1l asked her if it were true that she had contracted debts amounting to $70,723 in 1907. ''That is your statement and does not make it true" she snapped. He her if she contracted them but the only answer he could, get was: 'I haven't the slightest idea"
 Among the receipted bills introduce ed by Nicoll for. the period from Jan uary 1906, to- November 1907, was one for $1,52S for lingerie, one for $5,SO7 for tailormade suits. One bill was for fifty-four gowns, ten coats and eighteen hats, bought from October 3. 1906 to January 10. 1907. Mrs. Gould couldn't say whether the bills were correct or not.
