reach the top. In August of 1916 the
speed kings of the motor world are
going to race up the rock walled sides
of this giant sentinel of The Rockies
over a double-track motor highway
that has been pronounced by eminent
roadbuilding achievements of the age.
To scale this mighty mountain with

months d ceaseless roar OF tons OF
explosives was re-echoed by the grim

Great boulders were lifted from their

HISTORY, But NOT IN BOOKS
Some Valuable Relics of Prchistors
Ages.

Near the outskirts of Los Angeles
Is a bit of ground underneath which
lies bed Of asphaltum. In this
thick, black substance are concealed
thousands Of skeletons which once
belonged to strange, prehistoric ami
mails
The owner Of the 35-acre tract has
presented this subterranean treasury
of ancient secrets to the city OF Los
Angeles with the understanding that
the search for fossils is to go on. and
that the skeletons recovered are to
be housed in museum to be main
tanned upon the spot.
The Lal3rea ranch, on which pre-
historic bone discoveries We're frs.
made three years ago, has already
produced the most striking collection
of skeletons of prehistoric animals in
existence. The country in this sec
ton must have been a favorite haunt
for strange animals OF all kinds in
the dim ages of the past. The theory
IL that these animals wandered un-
suspectinglv into the asphaltum area,
were overcome by fumes and expired
The asphaltum preserved their bones
in perfect condition. Up to the pres
ent. the complete skeletons OF sixteen
imperial elephants have been recov-
cred. together with hundreds OF skel-
etOns Of unknown species. including
enormous birds.
This rich discovery is destined to
prove immense Importance to scien-
lists. who up to the present have been
obliged to reproduce prehistoric crea-
lures from more or less incomplete
specimens. Montana. Nebraska and
Wyoming have yielded many remark
able fossils. These, however have
usually been recovered only at great
labor, the bones being encased In solid
stone, or buried deep In the earth. The
bones on the DaBrea ranch, however,
are easily recovered, and II may be
possible to construct from them a
story Of the prehistoric animal king
