OAKLAND, Cal. March 1s. -
Science today knows the approx.
mate birthday OF the great Sierra
Nevada mountains which tower in
mighty majesty between California
and Nevada. This great discovery
was ascertained by the finding Of
II tooth Of q three-toed horse In
gold mine near Columbia,
Tuolumne county, last July, ac-
cording to Or. r. W. CLANCY, re.
search associate Of the Carnegie
Institute in Washington, who Is
doing research work at the Uni
yersity OF California.
The announcement was made
public after receipt OF e letter from
DR.. John g. Merriam, president Of
the Carnegie Institute, at Wash
1ngton, ID. g. According 10 the LETT
ter, the tooth has been pronounced
by DIR. Merriam to be that Of q
three-toed horse which lived two
million or three million year ago.

ing in the vicinity OF the Spring
field gold mine, near Columbia,
when the mine superintendent
called his attention to several pecu-
liar teeth that the miners had
brought from the lower levels Of
the mine.
CLANCY, believing that the teeth

descended to the 260-foot level Of the
mine shaft to examine the strata in
which the teeth were found. After
several days OF search. q tooth was
finally located. Examination OF the
strata. according to Clancy. showed
# to be OF the tertiary age, de-
posted several million years ago.
But absolute determination Of the
age Of deposit could not be decided
until the age Of the tooth was de.
termined.
Dr. Merriam, an authority on
paleontology, declared the tooth was
two or three million years old.

Canfcid's Trip Had Been Well Ad- yertiscd, But Fleet Remains Direct ly on Jersey Coast.

MRS. MINER SCORES
 MOVEMENT IN ). AR.
Connecticut Woman Lends Force
 to Mrs. Cooks Side

|
 Washington. April 1o.--Thc stir
 created by tho circumstances of the
 sudden withdrawal Of Mrs. William
 Cumming Story of New York as q
 candidate for president general was
 siill evident among delegates to the annual congress - the Daughters of
 the American Revolution today as they voted on the two remaining can didates and their respective tickets.
 Mrs. Anthony Wayne Cook of Pennsylvania and Mrs. C. Wallace Hanger of Washington, were the two candidates for president general left in the field today as the result of Mrs. Story's withdrawal immediately after she was placed in nomination last night. Her declaration from the floor that she was withdrawing in favor of Mrs. Cook ''in repudiation of a cam paign based upon defamation of the character of a candidate" threw the convention into an uproar during the nomination session. Mrs. Cook there- upon announced that she was per fectly willing to share Mrs. Story's votes with Mrs. Hanger"
 Mrs. Story's allusion to defamation of character was followed by a state ment issued by the Pennsylvania dele gation branding as false and libclous an anonymous letter circulated among members before the congress conyen- ed which, it was said, reflected on the war record of Mrs. Cooks son. The statement said affidavits were held at the Pennsylvania headquarters which proved the falsity of the anonymous letter which also has been denounced by Mrs. Cook as untrue.
 Mrs. George Maynard Miner of Connecticut, retiring president-gen- eral, also denounced the circulation of the letter in a statement declaring she could not "condemn too strongly such a low underhand method of at tack, of which I cannot believe any of our society would be guilty"
 Possibility of a deadlock between the two remaining candidates and | their tickets loomed today with talk of q dark horse 'eniivening the l contest. scattering vote for Mrs. Story in spite of her withdrawal might block the way to 8 necessary majority, it was pointed out, for either candidate.
