Scientists in Orient Are Reconstructing Animals of Old World
Men Explore New Territory and Discovered Ancient Civilization
Peking, Sept. 28. — (UP) — In the laboratories of the Central Asian Expedition of the American Museum of natural history, set far back in their Chinese campsets in Peking, a little group of American and Chinese scientists is reconstructing monsieur animals, whose fossilized bodies were brought from the clay beds of the deserts of Inner Mongolia.
These animals died millions of years ago. The explorers made rich finds last summer, recovering almost everything they had unmined and any previously known. They returned to Peking in mid-August, and have not yet fully recovered from the hardships of their trip, but now they can preside on expeditions into Mongolia.
Sand-storms of force intensity endure almost constantly for six weeks, after which it became so hot that the thermometer registered 110 degrees Fahrenheit. But in spite of these difficulties the group headed by Dr. Roy Chamman Andrews traveled 5,000 miles in motor-cars through trackless wastes, and gathered fossils which filled 90 pack-eating canteens. They returned on the return to Peking. Even after rotting Kaigan, the outpost of civilization, their troubles were not over. The journey to Peking, ordinarily covered in 12 hours, required three days, and the weather almost washed away by a sudden flood.
Work Just Begun
Back in Peking, their hardships are ever but their work has really just begun. The precious fossils must be elaborately examined and treated, and mounted for exhibition in the museum.
The expedition set out this year in the hope of finding traces of pre-Dawn Man. They failed in this quest and have been missing in a variety of species of the great monsters of ancient times hitherto unknown. The prize of the lot, in the opinion of the scientists, is the largest find mammal yet discovered.
This creature, which has not yet been named, weighed about twenty pounds. He stood 25 feet high and 40 feet long. His head boards, fossilized, weigh 400 pounds, and the task of bringing the beast back to Peking was arduous. Whatever to the laboratories are summed up as the 'beast' parts of 15 different specimens of the same beast were found, all of the essential bones, so that the laboratories are gradually piecing together the entire monster. The type has been found nowhere else on the world, and is distinctly Asiatic.
Explored New Territory
Another beast which is taking gradual shape in the laboratories here is more extraordinary, except for his size, than the other. His height was almost equally like an American cowboy's shoulder turned up at both ends and curled flint in the middle. But this creature's most amazing feature is his nose. His eyes are sunken low in his head, and his mouth is set far down. But the nose goes almost directly into the

The expedition covered much unexplored territory, all of it utter desert, and mapped new labes and streams. They learned that this region was inhabited by a variety of mammals with perhaps four times the population of Mongolia today, richly wooded and watered, and are now certain that 50-600 years ago Mongolia was the center of the world, inhabited by rains of towns that old, with an advanced primitive civilization.
Money Thrown in River
Treasure Amounts to $65,000
From Slot Machines
Kansas City, Mo., Sept. 28—(UP)
—Treasure troves of the Caribbean have long held the fancy of the adventurer who dreams of retrieving treasure of pieces of sight from cans in the coves of isolated and forgotten islands, referred to as the "Big Muddy," now is offering a similar attraction.
Three years ago, a war was instituted against slot machines by Dojig M. J, Kilroy. The regular procedure was to throw the confiscated groceries into a river at the bridge, Jack Kierry, clerk of the North Municipal Court, says that he has dumped about 500 machines into the river. The value of these machine range from $195 to $250 each. The total worth is estimated at $39,000.
Known treasure to the amount of 85,000 lies buried in the alley mud d of the river bed of the Missouri岸 an A-S-B bribery at Kansas City It is said that the river bed is a sacred corn—namely, grapes and milk.
The value of these machines is increased by their contents when thrown into the river. The smallest denomination that can be used in the machines is a nickel. The smallest machine contains about 810. It is estimated that the total cash content is $8,000.
During the three years that the slot machines have laid on the floor of the river, it is possible that all of them have rusted and fallen apart losing their treasure to rave the bed of the stream under the bridge.
Secret of Police Lincoln R. Toyne recently has inaugurated a cleanup effort in the school district to clear them from places fragmented by school children. Many of the students, it is charged, squander their lunch and carve money on theinations and love to go hungry and will get more treasure as a result.
