Students of University of Nebraska
Gather Valuable Specimens.

Custer, Aug. 4.-Some valuable
scientific discoveries have been made
by a party of geological students who
for several days have been camping
in this vicinity while gathering inter-
esting specimens and visiting nearby
points of interest to biologists. The
party consists of Prof. f. F. Schram,
Prof. S. o. Johnson, Kent Kimball,
Adrian Scott, Albert Beck and A. H.
Micker, all of the university of Ne
braska. They have been through the
famous bad lands of White river, the
Cambria coal mines, Wind cave and
other sections of the northwest which
offer opportunities to biologists.
They will devote a number of days
to various points of geological inter
est in the Black Hills before return
ing to their Nebraska homes. The
collection of specimens thus far gath
cred by them is one of the most valu-
able ever gathered by a single eX-
ploring party on one journey.
