FOSSILS IN EGYPT.
A Natural Wonder Unusual for That
Country.
Somo raro fossils hnvo been dis

ploring party amder tho dlrcotlon of
Professor II. F. Osborn, vlco provi
dent of tho American Museum of
Natural History, and Walter Granger
and "George Olson, mombors of tho
museum staff.
Tho fossils were discovered In tho
rayun desort, eltuated a fow miles
from tho NUo valley. Tho collection
mado was put Into 27 largo packing
cases and shipped on a freight steam
or which has already arrived In Now
York.
Tho main objcot of tho expedition
was to Book tho ancestor of tho olo
phant. A very Important And was
that of tho ancestral olophant known ,
as tho palacomastodon. Tho skelo
ton Is not complete, but tho skull.
tho lowor jaw, leg and foot bones nnd
sovoral vortobrao woro found. A
thorough search wns mado for the
missing bones, but with no success.
According to Mr. Grange tho animal
dates back moro than 1,000,000
years.
Anothor Important fossil found
wns that of an arisnolthorhim, which
takes Us namo from Quoon Arlsnoo,
who reigned 31C D. C. Tho skull,

novor boon found.
Among olhor fossils In tho col
