No Fresh Reports From The

Action.

London, Dec. 4.-The Russians
have approached within firing dis
tance of Cracow, the fall of which
city it is claimed would lay open the,
roads to Vienna, Breslau and Berlin.
The main interest now centers in the,
operations around Lodz, where It is
evident new battle is developing.
and where both sides have reformed
their lines. Little leaks through the.
official statements concerning the
progress there.
However, the new battle must last
for some days, and the opposing
troops may be counted upon to fight
with the same intensity as they did
in the previous conflict, when the
! sses in killed, wounled and miss
ing reached enormous numbers.
There has been no news for some.

FIND PREHISTORIC BONES
London Excavations Reveal
Relics of Pleistocene Period.

London, July 25.-The authorities at
the South Kensington Museum Of Nat
ural History have determined that the
fossil bones Of a lions leg and OF
mammoth's hip. recently discovered
thirty-fve feet below the surface OF
Fleet ST.. belong to the Pleistocene
period. These prehistoric relics were
found within thirty yards Of the spot
where the skull of woolly rhinoceros,
homes Of the reindeer and of the eX-
tinct great OK and horse were found
several years ago.
It is common enough to find Roman
relics when excavating in the centre
or CITY, of London, but fossils Of the
Pleistocene age are so rare as to be OF
striking interest to geologists. j. r..
Beddard, F. r. S., answers the ques-
ton as to how these animals made
their way into the British Isles.
During the period of the .earth's
history which saw these great beasts
grazing or the plains Of Northern Eu-
rope and Asia" he said, England was
not divorced from the Continent, and
the Thames flowed on to join the
Rhine"

triumphs Of Mr.. Roosevelts African eX-

Then there is the blesbok, the story
Of whose disappearance is one Of the
tragedies of Africa. Gordon Cumming
saws that one of the most wonderful
things that he saw in his sporting
career was the vision Of the PLAIN "one
purple mass of graceful blesbok as far
as my eyes could strain" Except IN
preservation. the blesbok is hardly ever
found to-day. -.
Among the horns in the Rothschild
collection are some wonderful trophies.
There are two pair Of spreading antlers
of the Irish elk hanging beside a series
of ancient Continental red deer horns
of size and weight such as no red deer
ever carries in these days. Some Asiat-
ic buffalo horns of superb quality, and
an especially wonderful pair OF the
STRAIGHTFORWARD form of Assam, OF pro-
digious spread, are seen.
Added TO these many things are
musk oxen and giraffes, numerous an
telopes, large and small cobs, dik-dlkS
and duykers. and sheep, goats and dee;
down TO a delightful little albino roe
deer. 49,
These are only the horned and
hoofed animals. The other families OF
the mammals are almost as fully rep
resented. There are cases oil monKeys'
balloons and great apes, with various
species of chimpanzees and some goril-
las, the largest of them terrifying
brute that stood feet 10 inches when
alive, with great cavernous' chest and
colossal shoulders. Among the large
cats, beside fine Siberian tiger SKIN
are mounted a hybrid between q non
and a jaguar. and grandly colored
dark-maned lion which. has a history
having been one of the casualties in'the
South African war, wherein 1t was
