Panama along the whole Pacific coast
of North and South America can rival
1t in this respect. But the three oc-

rivals in any sense. Guayaquil Is on

California to Cape Horn, and this riv'

Found in Bad Lands Of DakOtas

the University Of Michigan, has just
returned from the Bad Lands OF the
Dakotas, where he discovered per-
feet mountable skeleton OF mesohip-

that country 100000 years ago, and
partial skeleton of a pliohippus, q
one-toed horse which lived 10000
years after the mesohippus was ex-
tinct.
The pliohippus is the connecting link
between the mesohippus and the mod

the pliohippus is the only one on rec
ord. Speaking of the pliohippus fos'
sil DR.. Troxel said:

is more complete or more merciless
than the boycott of quarantine, ana
quarantine against Guayaquil Is
scarcely ever lifted. Ecuadorians have
complained and do yet complain
against what they term the injustice
of the permanent quarantine. They
point out that where for periods OF six
months or more there has been no
case of yellow fever or plague at
Guayaquil, yet there has been no re-
laxing Of the quarantine regulations.

date back farther than about Is years

system In 1870. These investigations

tract with ]. G. White & Co. for the

cazar. It was declared city four
years later, but was abandoned and
restored In 1887 by Francisco de Orel-

pirates, and has been on several occa'
