THE DAILY BRITISH WHIG, WEDNESDAY MARCH 31,1915, ly A DINOSAURUS HUNT, Pathaeontologist Brought Home One i of the Queerest Bags Yet. A man returned East not long since from a hunting trip in Alberta with a most remarkable bag of game. It weighed many tons. The man was Barnum Brown, as- sociate curator of fossil réptiles in the American Museum of Natural History. He had been out in Alberta engaged in the greatest of modern sports--hunting dinosaurs. five, i How Prof. Brown came to find them is an interesting story. Some years ago a man named Wagner stood in the Hall of Reptiles in the Museum of Natural History examin- ing with great curiosity the skeleton of the Jurassic brontosaurus. Then he went up te the office of Professor Brown. He introduced himself as | J. L. Wagner of Alberta, Canada. He | remarked on the gigantle size of the | brontosaurus, and its peculiar form- | ation. Would Mr. Brown be inter- ested in collecting such bones as these? he inquired. Professor Brown would. Mr. Wagner said that he came from the region of the Red Deer, River Canyon, in Alberta, In the vicinity of his ranch he had seen many such bones, Acting on the directions of Wag- ner, Prof. Brown made a preliminary trip in 1910. He found the Red Deer River region rich in fossil bones. He went again a year later; and in June of 1914 made his most recent and thorough exploration, which lasted all summer and into the fall. The skeletons he brought back | were those of the ankylosaurus, the | monoclonius, the triceratops, tlre | orinthomimus, and the tyrranosau- 8. It was in the region of Red Deer River Canyon that Prof. Barnum Brown and his fossil-hunting ex- pedition camped. They requisitioned a large flat-boat on which they float- ed slowly down the stream between the frowning walls, No artist or scenic voluptuary, drunk with beauty, ever scanned his surround- ings with such avid eyes as did these fossil hunters. They searched the region with candles, as the saying is. On occasions their eyes would de- tect something on a lofty ledge; per- | haps a bone weathered out and lying exposed to view. Then the party { would leave the boat and climb to examine the "find." One look at a bone tells the scientist what part of ! the reptile it io. Now for the quarrying. Having satisfied themselves as to how the bones of a skeleton lie--that is to say, in what direction is the head and what the tail---the fossil collec- tors set themselves to find out how { far in both directions the remains { run, This is done by chiselling away the rock, partially exposing the bones, until they terminate. - [THE SPORT He got - | bought from George O'Neil by James i Réynolds. | eight players.
