MONSTER 100 FEET LONG.
Skeleton Of a Giant Lizard Dug Up
in East Africa.

From I.eslles Weekly
The largest known find of an extinct
monster is the giantosaurus, a huge liz
ard, dug up in German East Africa about
year ago. The skeleton was almost
complete and measured 100 feet in length
1t was found in the lower cretaceous
rocks and must have lived from seven
to ten millions of years ago. The crea-
ture was herbiVorous, as shown by its
teeth, and Is supposed to have lived an
aquatic life. Several very large extinct
dinosaurs have been found in the United
States. The most noted if these was
discovered in 1900. when the Carnegie
expedition (searching for fossils in Wy
oming) unearthed an almost complete
skeleton of diplodocus, about eighty
seven feet long. 1t has been mounted
in the museum at Pittsburgh. Mr. Car
negie later presented reproductions of
this skeleton to five of the leading natural
history museums of Europe.
OF the extinct fishes, the ichthyosau-
rus is the best known. and its remains
have been discovered in various parts of
Europe Culver declared that it pos
sessed the snout of a dolphin, the teeth
of crocodile, the head and breast bone
of a lizard. the paddle of a whale or dol
phin and the verteora Of a fish," After
such a description the ichthyosaurus Qish
lizard) becomes the name Of a tribe of
monsters. It fiourished in the age of
reptiles and is not member of the
family of oldest fossils There are fish
which resemble modern sharks. and they
lived in the paleozoic age, dating back
few million years before the age of rep
tiles. which is reckoned at from fifteen to
twenty million years ago.
Both the mastodon and the woolly
rhinoceros at one time lived in North
America. These animals. being NAM
mails, are of the miocene period of the
tertiary third) epoch of the world s
history, which is intermediate between
the ages of 10000 years ago and the
age of several million years back, it be-
ing the period preceding the ice age.
Some excellent specimens have been
found in Kansas and several are shown
in the National Museum. Fossil remains
Of the great Irish deer have been found
in the shell mari and clay under the
peat in Ireland. This animal lived dur
ing the time of the mammoth and was
very large. the antlers of one specimen
found measuring twelve feet across.
