The seeming fossil whs found lu blue lime stone of the Triasslc period on a sum mit In the southern extremity of the Humboldt mountain range In Nevada. Both Doctor Matthew and Doctor Kemp said that the object was the uioat surprising Imitation by nature of the workmanship of man which had ever come to their attention, but that it was absolutely impossible that it could be a Kenulne fossil because the evidence was overwhelming that tho career of human beings on earth was not over half a million years, where as the Triasslc rock of which the neat ly sculptured sole Is made more- an cient. It would fit nicely a boy of ten op twelve years. The edges arc as smooth as If freshly cut. Hut the surprising part of It Is what seems to be a double line of stitches, une near the outside edge of tho solo anil the other about a third of an Inch Insldo the first. Tho 'leather" Is thicker Inside the inner welting and appears to be slightly bev eled so that at the margin, half an Inch wide, which runs outside, the sole Is something like an eighth of an Inch thick. The symmetry Is maintained per fectly throughout. The perfect lines pursued by the welting ami the ap pearance of hundreds of minute holes through which the sole was sewed to the shoe are the things which make the object such an extraordinary freak In the eyes of the scientists who ex nmlncd It.

If niore lines Join together in such an or ganization It is apt to become too unwieldy for successful operation, anil ns there is practically no over head expense involved, there Is no particular advantage in several lines going together tn such mi organiza tion.
