The skeleton of a prehistoric deinoden, calculated to be 60,000,000 years old, has been installed in dinosaur Rall et the American Museum of Natural History at New York. T The deinodon, which is also known as “terrible tooth,” is described as perhaps the most swift and powerful creature of its time. The skeleton stands 11 feet 5 inches high and measures twenty feet from the nose to the tip of its tail. It is supposed to have weighed several times as much as the largest Hon of today . , The skeleton of the deinodon was found three years ago by Charles H. Sternberg in the canon of the Red Deer river in Alberta, the richest repository of dinosaur skeleton yet discovered. Theodore Frieling of DeMotts underwent a major operation at the hospital Friday evening. His condition is encouraging today.
