ANCIENT ANIMALS
SKELETONS FOUND
Remains of StigOsaurus and
DinOSaur Captured by Pro-
lessor in Good Condition.

Especial to The Herald Republican,
Vernal, Aug. 1s.-The dinosaur at
the Douglas quarry is looming up in
good shape. In fact it is nothing less
than wonderful that such animals can
be found after the countless ages. The
skeleton Professor Douglas Is working
on now is so perfect that when one
looks at II one wonders how il was
caught and held in such natural posi-
ton. The earth layers there are tilted
about 80 per cent and the animal has
the appearance of walking.
large portion of the tail Is in sight
and the pelvus and left femur, portion
of the spinal column and several ribs.
one OF which is five feet long, and as
broad as a barrel stave. Mr.. Douglas
did not find the head OF the big fellow
he worked on with such hopes. He had
every reason 10 believe the head would
be intact, as the neck vertebrae were
in place, including the atlas, but the
head was gone.
The big fellow broke the record in
tail joints, however, as the professor
got between fOrty-five and fifty bones.
A new animal has put in an ap-
pearance at the Douglas quarry. II is
a stigOsaurus, gOod-siZed fellow with
a skin like the crocodile. Mr.. Douglas
certainly struck a rich deposit of an
cient animals and he is making the
most OF his find.
