The Diet of the Plestosaur.
The Diet of the Plesiosaur.
The department of Natural History in K. S. U. has the happy faculty of keeping in the van in scientific matters. Prof. Williston has made an important discovery concerning one of the famous animals in prehistoric times. On his late trip to Ellsworth he found the vertebra and parts of the ribs of a plesiosaurus. Mingled among those bones were found nearly a peck of rounded stones. These stones, the professor says, were used by the plesiosaur to aid his digestion. The proof that they were used, so is that they were found with these bones and in a limestone formation at a distance of over 100 miles from the sea coast of that period. These "gizzard stones" vary in size. Some are as large as a base ball while others are no larger than a pea. The scientists have suspected that the plesiosaur had this peculiar habit, but had no definite data to establish that fact. This discovery of Prof. Williston proves beyond a doubt the ostrich like appetite of the plesiosaur. The plesiosaur, whose correct name is Cimoliasaurus Trinacomerum, probably picked up these stones 150 miles distant from the place, as they are of many different formations, and then after some gigantic duel with some other mounter of like size and length of name, laid down and died leaving these "gizzard" stones as a memento of the fact that he died with a full stomach. The length of the reptile is in strict accordance with its name. The specimen of which the professor spoke being sixty feet in length. The pebbles and bones which are mentioned are in Snow Hall and, no small contribution to its curiosities.
Holmes' Trip.
Otis H. Holmes arrived from Atlanta, Ga., last Saturday where he has been in attendance at the convention of Phi Delta Theta. The convention was a large one, there being over 125 delegates representing 68 chapters. Banquets were numerous, Holmes, says and the boys had a nice time. The convention was tendered a reception by Gov. Northern, whose son is a member of Phi Delta Theta. Otis reports quite an enthusiastic crowd at the unveiling of the Henry Grady monument. While in St.Louis he saw some of the foot ball boys of Washington University at St. Louis who thought that K. S. U. would have no difficulty in defeating Columbia's team. Holmes was quite pleased with his trip to the south.
