fishing schooner Columbia has been
lowed into st. Pierre, MID, by the
French steam trawler La Champlain,

Nebraska Man
Describes Seeing
Huge "DinOSaur"

Omaha. Neb., July 25.-By far the
most vivid picture of the actions and
features of the antediluvian mon
ster which for about three years has
terrified a number of tourists, fisher
men, farmers and others in the vici-
nifty of Big Alkali Lake, near the
small town of Hay Springs, Neb,
has been received by the, Omaha
World Herald from j. A. johnson
Of Hay Springs.
Il saw the monster myself while
with two friends last fall" Johnson's
communication stated. Il could
name 40 other persons who also
have seen the brute. But owing to
it's apparent preference to nights,
and apparently dark nights. few
have had as good a view as T."
In telling of his experience, the
communication declared:
I'VE had camped a short distance
from the lake on the night before
and all three of us arose early to be
ready for the early duck flight. We
started to walk round the lake close
to the shore when suddenly, coming
around slight raise in the ground,
I we came upon this animal, nearly
three fourths out of the shallow
water near the shore. We were less
than 90 yards from him and he saw
us at the same time we came upon
him. 1t lifted it's head, made a pc
cular kissing noise and disappeared.
1.-The animal was probably 40 feet
long, including the tail and the head,
when raised in alarm as when he
saw us. In general appearance the
animal was not unlike an alligator,
except tht the head was stubbier,
and there seemed to- be a projection
that was like a horn between the
eyes and nostrils. The animal was
built much more heavily throughout
than an alligator, and was not at all
sluggish in it's actions. Its color
seemed a dull gray or brown, al
though it was hardly light enough
to distinguish color well.
1--WE stood for several minutes aft
err the animal had gone, hardly
knowing what to do or say. when we
noticed several hundred feet out from
the shore a considerable commotion
in the water. like n school of fish
sometimes makes. Sure enough the
animal came to the surface. floated
there a moment and then dashed the
water with its tail, suddenly diyed
and we saw no more of him.
my theory is that there is sub
terranean. passage from that lake to
other underground lakes and that
the beast and probably others live
under ground. coming up only occas-
ionally. Such geological formations
are not rare. Many are known to
exist in Kentucky and Virginia

distilled hatred. ill-will, suspicion and
anger among the nations"
Abiding to past negotiations,

Il did not fail out with NJ. Poin-
care, but it was very difficult. Mr..
Bonar Law also found it quite i'm
possible to work with him.
The former remier accused NJ.
