 IS PREMIEpS' OFFER.
Wilson to Decide Whether Hes Will Abide by
 Plan \
HIS REGENT NOTE
 INDICATES HE WILL
Italy and Jugo-SIavia May Get Op- portunity to Adjust Conflicting Territorial Claims Them
 selves

Washington, Feb. 27~-The invita- tion of the British and French prem iers to President Wilson to join them in formal proposal to the Italian and Jugo-Slav government to nego- Uate a new Adriatic settlement on the basis of the withdrawal of all previous agreements caused no sur prise in official circles here.
 The note, which was received to- day at the state department, is now before the president, and his reply is expected to be made within a few days. Meantime. officials are re- fraining from any discussion of it, or of the presidents probable course.
 It was pointed out, however, that while adhering to the agreement of December 9, the president in his last reply to the premiers said that "he would, of course, make no objec- tion to a settlement mutually agree able to Italy and Jugo-Slavia provided that such agreement is not made at the expense of third pow CT"
 If the premier's proposal is accept cd by the presidently, Italy and Jugo- -Savia will have their first opportunity to undertake settle ment between themselves. Officials would not voice their opinions as to the probabilities of such negotia- tionc.
 There is such wide difference be- tween the territorial aspirations of the two countries, however, it was remarked as almost certain that such negotiations to be successful would have taken many months
 Premier's Plan
 London, Feb. 27.-The reply made by Premiers Lloyd George and Mill erand to President Wilson's latest communication on the Adriatic oncs- ton repeats the assurance that they never had the intention of making definite settlement, without obtain ing the views of the United States government"
 The reply, which is dated February 26, states that the absence of an American representative had proved in practice an almost insurmountable obstacle to the success of the nego- tiations.
 The premiers observe as fact of the greatest importance, that Prcsi- dent Wilson expresses willingness to accept any settlement mutually agreeable to Italy and Jugo-Slavia, regarding their common frontier in the Plume region, provided such agreement is not made on the basis of compensation elsewhere at the ex. pense of nationals of a third power"
 This, the prcmiers agree, would be an ideal way of settling the ques- tion. and they express willingness to do their utmost to reach settle ment by this road. In order to facilitate this process they are ready to withdraw their proposals of De- cember' and January 20.
 The cause they believe if the par ties principally concerned believe the allied and associated powers com mitted to supporting them in any particular solution it will be more difficult than any agreement. The premiers, therefore ask the president to join them in formal proposal to the Italian and Jugo-Slav govern ment to negotiate an agreement on the basis of withdrawal of all pre- vious proposals.

This state association business is a
unique affair. Nearly every state in
the Union has an association, and all
former citizens of state are entitled
to membership. Every so often they
hold picnic, come together, talk
over old times and greet each other.
Many meeting former neighbors not
knowing each other were located
here. The picnic may be in January
or July, as the weather is all the
same for outdoor sports. Such states
as Iowa, Illinois and Ohio, usually
muster 10000 or 10000 at their pic
mics, while Colorado can get together
5000 or 10000 former citizens, the
most of whom are here for their
health or change of climate or may
be to escape the law and possibly the
pen. At any rate they are all here be-
cause they are here and are going to
stay, quake or no quake.
At the picnic grounds there are
places to register for each county, so
that any one by looking over the reg
ister can locate old friends. John
Potter's name was on the Gunnison
county register. He is growing
younger every day and is not going to
die as long as the government pen
sion holds out, and why should he,
as all the rest of the Gunnison colony
at Sawtelle are going to live on. I
saw Mike Guerin there. He used to
run a passenger train over Marshall
Pass, but retired some 40 years ago,
thinking he had about lived his allot-
ted time. Here he has found the
elixor of youth and is growing young
er every day, enjoying romping on the
beach in one piece bathing suit,
turning hand springs and teaching
the girls how to swim. Jim Murphy,
formerly of Pitkin and Cripple Creek.

has much of a struggle to hold onto
youth, but his wife goes along to
keep him out of mischief. He has

EQUIPPED TO RULE OCEAN
Monster That Lived 100000 Years
Ago Must Have Been a Terror
70 Other Fishes.

In the National museum at Wash
ington is exhibited the skeleton of a
zeuglodon-a monster which in life
was seventy feet long and which must
have been ruler of the seas during a
bygone epoch. There is good reason
to believe that this alarming creature
dates back fewer than 100000 years,
says a bulletin.
With an enormously long tail and
powerful swimming paddles, the zeu-
glodon must have been able to swim
at the speed of an express train, and
its great allIgatorlike head was armed
with huge carnivorous teeth.
IT was man1resuy a neroe01s anu
predatory brute and presumably fed
on fishes and porpoise The head was
four feet long and In the front part
Of each jaw were eight teeth for seiz-
Ing and tearing. which were supple
mented by series OF saw edged cut
ting teeth at the back.
The zeugiodons were mammals, re-
lated to modern whales. They must
In their time have been very numerous.
Judging from the quantities OF their
bones dug up In Mississippi and Ala

many as to interfere with blowing
Farm walls are built Of them.
Apparently the creatures, which
are denizens of warm seas, died and
were washed up into shallow waters
that afterward became dry land.

those of alligatorsD are found scat
