Bones of Great Lizard Unearthed i'm
South Dakota.

Winner. May 1.-The skeleton of
"A prehistoric dinosaur was today un-
earthed by a dredging crew at work
on the city waterworks, near Shoe
maker Springs. four miles south OF
Winner. While the ditching machine
was in operation in an unusually
deep cut it suddenly brought to the
surface among the debris several
huge bones resembling the paddles
of a rowboat.
The workmen were amazed to find
so far below the surface the bones OF
hat they at first thought to be an
enormous buffalo. The bones were
so large that they stopped the work
of the dedger. Councilman Barnum,
president of the Bank of Winner, who
was present, at once recognized the
bones to be those of some prehistoric

Of he v%ertebrae and the extended
shoulder or iin structure were fitted
together.
The paddle shaped structures,
which extended upward from the YER
tebrae, measured in the neighbor-
hood of six feet. This RIB was curved
like the rib of ordinary animals.
A socket in the vertebrae allowing
the rib to fit in was found. While
the large structural bones stand
above the spinal column, the ribs tx
tend downward. This popularity IN
abled Prof. Bruce Backus and others
versed in archaeology to at once iden-
tify the find as belonging to the pre-
historic dinosaur. The remarkable
feature is that, while this fossil may
have lain buried millions of years,
the bones were not petrified. but still
are of an ivory nature, quite hard
and brittle. Although many strange
prehistoric mammals and species of
huge reptiles are said TO have been
found i'm the Black Hills, so far as
known the prairie country comprising
the Rosebud has eve heretofore
given evidence of fossil %habitation.
The dredging crew evidently reached
only a portion of the back of the
fossil. and ii is expected that archae-
ologists will become interested and
~excavate the entire remains, which
still lie below the surface of the bot
tom of the ditch passed over by the
dredging machine.

Crump figured that as long as his

carry the sons name or the pay roll,

In order to save the extra gang

not save him.
