ROCK AT MUSEUM
MILLION YEARS OLD
PART OF PREHISTORIC SEA
BED is BROUGHT FROM MT.
LEBANON, IN SYRIA.

NEW YORK, N. Y.-The Ameri-
can Museum of Natural History an
nounced that it had placed on view in
the Geographical hall of the museum
three blocks of limestone from the
slopes of Mount Lebanon, near Beirut,
Syria, that lay claim to greater age
than history records" The age OF the
rocks is estimated at 100000 years.
"The limestone layers from which
thew were taken" says the announce
ment. formed the bed of the ocean
over that area during the cretaceous
or chalk-forming period and contain
ed the remains Of seashells and other
marine organisms which lived in the
osean at that time, and which were
entombed in the mud at the bottom
as they died, being thus preserved as
the mud was hardened into limestone
The markings seen on the polished
faces are sections of these shells. The
larger ones seen in blocks | and Z are
shells OF Impurities plioatus and
Impurities liratus Conrad, and give to
the limestone layers their name
Impurities limestone, by which they
are known to biologists throughout
the world The smaller shells in these
two blocks are OF various kinds. Block
3 is from the Nerinea feuriausi d'Orb,
which occurs so abundantly in it as
almost to exclude all other kinds.
Similar Rocks in Georgia.
The shells are beautifully shown in
section on the face of the block, They
were loosen from the beds as the
rocks rotted away under the action
OF the weather and may be picked
out OF the clay formed by this de-
composition Rocks of the same geo
logical age (cretaceous), with similar,
although rarely Identical, shells are
found in America, in parts of New
Jersey, Alabama, Georgia, Tennessee,
Mississippi and Texas; over large
part Of the central area of the United
States east OF the Rocky mountains
and on the west coast. The chalk
cliffs of Dover and other parts of
southern England are similar. These
rock formations are also found in
many parts of France, over many
areas in other European states and in
Asia. as we'll as along the southern
shore of the Mediterranean sea.

Puelicher. president of the American
Bankers Association in annual con

on the various schools OF radicals OF

licher recognized a number OF evils OF
the capitalistic system, declaring that
there should be no child labor, no
seven day labor week, no unduly long
hours of labor and no "treacherous

PLANT CENTURIES OLD IN
POSSESSION OF UNIVERSITY
Mine Yields Most Aged Botanical
Specimen in America.

The University of Chicago has
come into possession of the oldest
specimen of highly developed plant
ever discovered in America, or the
rest Of the world, according to DR..
Adolph c. Noe, professor of paleobot-
any.
The plant, which has been preserv-
ed for centuries in all its minuteness,
was found in a so-ca1led coal ball in
a mine near Harrisburg, III. Coal
balls are round Jumps of limestone
which form in a coal seam and usual
ly prevent plants from carbonization.
While all the vegetable matter
about the ball becomes shapeless
black coal the forms of life within
the coal ball are perfectly preserved.
Our whole knowledge of the ancient
plants which grew millions of years
ago is derived, DR.. Noe says, from
these Jumps found in coal mines.

FOREIGN DerIvatIve.

The word booze has found its way
into the dictionaries, although some
# them mark II "colloquial." Its de-
riyation Is probably from the German
word hansen, which means to drink,
therefore booze might be regarded as
word adapted from a foreign Ian
guage rather than as q slang word.
