Tlio discoveries were originally niatlo by Prof. Mitdjio, recent I,v locoased, whoso name U eonnocted with all the important discoveries of tho great West, and by Prof. Marsh. Tho States of Ivansa ami Colorado, during what i known in fienlo-rieal parlance as the Ar of Keiitile.s-. contained great Malt and fresh-water inland sea, wno-o swamp and lowlands swarmed with creatures of herculean dimensions. The nutuva'scs mw, or bad land of Colorado, ami the arid, chalky deserts of Kan-as, are the bed.sof these ancient was and on account of the .sterility and barrenness of the country, very few people, except occasional miners, pen-1 etrated them, finally, science inserted tho entering wedge, an expedition eros.H'd the waste, and scenes were opened to view that equaled in truth the oxagjreratiojiq uf Verne, The dry chalky sand had been worn by wind and rain into a thonsat?d diilerent shapes. Castles and bastions of irnmi'iise size towered aloft, llank'd by tlyinR buttresses of Nature's own design. SpSre.s, .harp and Jagged, pierced tho air; risiii" from domes .suir;etivo of Moorish designs and tho AU'ou'la, while the red.

vellow anil blue elava gave totlie witoie a fantastic appeanmco. In forming these quaint shapes the elements ex- ! posed to view innumerable, bones and skeletons of forms that once swam over the spot. Prof. Marsh savs: In one . t.lace1 1 counted the remains of live on,,. mmittaN unmail noon the obun." . . . .a i Some of the . ' . .

Fort Uilcy, Kan., 'stands upon tho shores of this pro-historic waste. The basin of this ancient ocean fills the great tract lying between Missouri and the Rocky Mountains, and extending from the Gulf of Mexico an unknown distance to the north. The disturbances that ended the preceding era caused a gencraj elevation of the surface, and gradually tho seas and lakes becamo dry land. The sea bottom, which is of limestone, became a monster graveyard of marine life. The country for miles has been washed away, leaving here and there lofty monimienta of sandstone. The ex peditions not onlv found the remains of j huge quadrupeds here, but also oystershells of great size scattered over tho plains. Some of the shells were open, others were closed, and all were of such size that did they contain the mollusk itself, five or six of them would yield n meal for a whole party. Sonio of them measured M inches across. At tho foot ofsomo of the bluffs. Portions of monsters were di-covered, the romaintierof their vertebral columns being buried in the limcsteiiio to tin known denths. Hero a paddle protrud cd, there a jaw armed with tremendous teeth.

The tail alone measured 5M feet, and evidently tapered down to a delicate point. The lows of terrible teeth were vises for holding prey, but as they were of no use for cutting it up, It must have been swab

lowed wliule. The wily sound that the Htmko could utter wtw'a hiss. That it had a forked tongue id proved by tho lack of room in tho mouth for a larger tutu. A turtle whs found with a shell ao feet in width Mini :i0 feet in length, l'rof. Cope has named this gigantic tortoise l'rAukqu uitja.1, the first or generic- term referring nroba-

j bU to tho peculiar condition of its Kceimngiy iimiuvoiopeu nos ami contiguous parts, which are like thoso of an ordinary tut tie ju.st hatched. Hero is the most gigantic turtles in maturity, having the undeveloped structure of the immittire ntate. One of the largest reptiles of tliii period that has been found is the hodon. The lower jaw was discovered projecting front a chalk el iff, and. on removing the earth, a long jirojeeting nm.zle was discerned. This resetnoles the head of tho blunt-nosed sturgeon of the present water.?. The PtcroiUictyl umOro tts, the veritable Hying reptile or drajron of that remote urn, was also unearthed. The specimen was foimtl at j the base of a bluff. It measured twentyi nine feet from linger to linger, and j when alive must have been ono of the t most terrible of tho inhabitants of tho ancient world. It derived its power of llight, not by a membrane stretched j over four elongated lingers, with a ' rudimentary thumb, like the bats. ' nor by a wing without distinct ' lingers, as iu birds, but by a win sustained principally on a very 'elongated toe, while the other members possessed their normal shortness, and were armed with claws. With this re j markable conformation were associated j a long neck and beak. It could lly in ! the air. remain on the wing a long time, and suspend itself to trees and f rocks by its short toes. Another wonder discovered was the Jlapcrunis, a , large water-bird seven feet in height, and having knife-like teeth. The teeth j were set in grooves, the wings were 1 rudimentary and useless, while the legs were like those of a duck. A stody of its skeleton shows it to have been closely related to the ostrich. Another wonder wa a llyinn-bird, the ichj thyornK having still more reptilian characteristics. Its teeth, like the alligator' were in distinct sockets, and, ! stranger yet, its vertebra- is bi-eoncave a peculiarity only found in the J iishesand a few reptiles, j Otic of the most gigantic reptiles discovered was tho Aniphicrriinx. The . thigh-bone was no heavy that the findj ers were fotved to harness a mule to it . to drag it out, of the hole. It measured t over eleven feet in length. A section of the vertebras from the dorsal por tion, was a heavy lift for four men. anil wlieu placed upon the ground in the position assumed bv the animal, it towered above the talle.t of the party, leing over six feet in height. To appreciate this, the reader must remenibur that the corresimnding bono of the nearest livlnir ronrescntative of this animal can be luteu uy tno : ' . ... ... little linger. 0.t.,. t.-. .:i ..-J.,. , . r n.l, ther fossil saurian, ho..e toigii bones are six feet m length, have been irieen n liourtli nf eiee" l.iil feeL If time increased m proportion to the size of this bone, wo should have a creature over -?00 feet iu length, but. of course, this is merely a supposition, though o,uite a probable one.

In another case in the Museum is arranged a magnircent collection of fossil sharks' teeth, somo of them as large as a man's hand. They belonged to ,i shark over 100 feet long. They can from the later beds of the Ashley and Cooper Rivers, South Carolina, and were collected by Prof. Holmes, the veteran geologist, of Charleston. In a. tall vase are some beautiful criuoids, presented to the Museum hy Robert L. Stuart. In the same hall are curious armored and war-like fishes called Chimaeroids, which measure .'0 feet in length, ami the bones of an animal quite as large as the living elephant, six of which arc like those of the rhinoceros.

Eikcutive Mansion'. l.',:h June, Mi, A ew Picnic Game. I have for some time noticed a lack of suitable games at picnics, etc., and it seems to me that most anythiag new wouki be acceptable. The games they have at present either require too much running for hot weather or are 'too tame.' I have an Hiiprovemeat to offer on an old game which will make it suitable for picnics, camp grounds, lawns and even the parlor. The game is bob shinney; it consists of a bob made to slide from oe end of a rojie to the other: the rope is to betightly stretched. two or three leet alove the ground, the ends being fastened to trees or a tenco. rtPan.. Kt-Y.Wire ohi..et that U Iianile or.an sta.ionan oujt.ti inai isimnuj. After this i? dMie the plavers choose 'sides ami provide themseives with sticks 1 . , it ,. ., , ,,. to knex'k the beib up awl down oa the rope with; the ends of the rope are goal. It is played the same as shinney, but not so destructive to shins and winilows. The game is comparative! v safe and ia ! just as exciting as the ohl way of play ing slunney ami iloes not require near as much running. A stout cord with a ring on it stretched across the room, with small sticks, makes it quite an exciting parlor game. I think this is about as good a game as any that I have seen yet at a social gathering and is more to he tastes of this young folks than blowing soap bubbles as they did at a partv mentioned, ia your paper. Cor. Detroit Fret Vrc$. Ah Ariiest Admirer. A series of raps at Dr. Duncan's door on Penn avenue about one o'clock on Sunday morning was answered by the doctor, who found a young lady em the steps accompanied by a young man, who saw! she was badly cut, and she was invited into his office. When the light was turned up it wa? found that the blooel was streaming from the numerous cats on lier arm and shoulders. Although she didn't consent to divulge who she was, she stated that slie lived down about Fifteenth street, and hael been at a picnic in the evening. About dusk several admirers came to her at the same time and askeel her comany. She was the idol of each of them, atei while she was revolving: in her iaiml which oae she would take, one of them grabbeel her. by the arm and the rest abo seieeel her, and each stniggleel hard to carry her away by force. The strongest prevailed. He threw her through th window of a covered carriage whiek he had employed, aud which was standing near by, and jumped into the rig after her, when the elriver put the whip to the team and drove away. The wouads were produced by her transit through the pane. The doctor dresseel the cuts ami sent her home. Pittsburgh ('.) Lmkr.
