Prehistoric Dinosaurs Found.

What is believed to be an important
find of hitherto undiscovered species
and genera of prehistoric land reptiles
has just been made Twelve fossils
or skeletons of dinosaurs, among them
two complete brontosaurs-th largest
animals that have ever lived-were
unearthed from the side of cliff nine
miles north Of Jansen, Utah, in what
was, IN distant ages, river; as the
cobbles, mussel shells, and sand en-
vironing the bones showed. Besides
these specimens of the extinct bronto-
saurus fossil, remains Of several stego-
saurus specimens were also brought
to light. These, Mr.. Hartley NJ. Phelps
tells us, are very rare. The stegosau-
rus was the most grotesqque animal
that ever existed. The brontosaurus
often attained length C 80 feet, but
1t had a small head. Its neck and tail
were short. Like the stegosaurus, it
lived by eating succulent herbs. 1t
had powerful legs, 10 feet or so in
length. The diplodocus measured 70
feet long, had an immense body, pow
erful legs, and an enormously long tail
and long neck, but small head. 1t
lived in swamps and ate waterweeds.
Its remains have only been found on
the slopes of the Rocky mountains.

FORCED TO LIvEN THINGS UP
Just an Example Of What the Re-
soureeful Hostess VIII Do When
Party Drags.

Miss Charlotte Van Cortlandt Nicoll
recently gave in the surf of Long
Branch a bathing tea party. a man

ed floating tea table perfectly APP

her friends. in FIVE feet Of water, par

Congratulated upon this novel par

Bourceful-the hostess Of Mrs. Blanc's
type.
MRS. Blanc was giving a tea party
on her yacht. The affair, for some
reason, was dragging dreadfully.
The guests talked of nothing but the
weather, and even in this talk tAere
would come long, deathly silences.
Suddenly Mrs. Blanc, losing her bal.

in-law. who sat beside the low rail,
and with a moaning cry the dear old
lady went headforemost overheard.
'Of course. she was rescued; but

WHERE SEDAN CHAIR is USED
The 3-century-old Vehicle Is StlII Seen
on May Day in knutsford,
England.

The news that there is a woman still
living who rode in a Sedan chair is a
reminder of the fact that there is one
town in England where a Sedan chair
is still used. It is at Knutsford, in
Cheshire-the Crawford" of Mrs.
Gaskell. Every May day Knutsford
arrays itself in gala attire. Sports are
held OF the village green, the May
queen is elected and crowned. and
in order that no aspect of antiquity
should be misslng-the Sedan chair is
produced.
Whatever may have been absolutely
the latest date at which Sedan chair
was used, the chair, at any rate, had
longer life than most forms of public
conveyance. For it appeared in Eng
land as early as 1881, and in London
fifty years later, when Sir Francis Dun
comb obtained the sole privilege of
letting and hiring them. Thus the
Sedan chair was in use for roughly
three centuries, and how many hand

gers in 2133, which will be the tercen-
tenary of their introduction?- London

SOME REALLY GRAND OLD MEN
Historical Records Of Longevity That

The Mexican who has Just died at
the alleged age of 1S5 has been pre-

SO by a citizen of New Brunswick
aged 1872, and a comparative youngster
of Valley Mills, Tex, whose age was

doned for thinking that the 1856 has
been inadvertently transposed from

heroes probably Aid Parr and Henry

ity. The monument at Bolton, York

the amazing age of 1872

Fame.

Great minds had rather deserve
contemporaneous applause, without
obtaining 1t, than obtain without de
serving it; IL it follow them, 1t is
well; but they viii not deviate to fol-
low 1t. With inferior minds the re-
verse is observable; so that they
can command the fiattery of knaves
while living, they care not for the
excratlons of honest men when dead.
Milton neither aspired to present
fame, nor even expected it; but Ito
use his own words) his high ambi-
ton was to leave something so writ

not willingly let 1t die" And Cato
