Petrified Footprints in Crossing.

Probably the most valuable street crossing in the country is one at Manhattan, Kgs., which consists of flat stone slabs bearing petrified footprints of prehistoric birds. They were collected by a geological student, attached for freight duties, and finally taken by the town marshal to repair the crossing. The valuable side, however, is kept underneath.
