HUNTING CRADLE OF HUMAN RACE. About a year ago an expc lition sent out by the American museum of natural Listory found in the Gobi desert of In- ner Mongolia many interesting fossil re- mains ot ancient plant and animal life. Among these were fossil bones of a four- toed horse, remains of dinosaurs like those found in the New World and the skull ofa Baluchitherium which shows characters similar to those of animal types found in India. These and other discov- eri-s made at that time strengthened the theory of museum scientists that all animal life, including the human species, originated somewhere in central Asia. Spurred on by these resuits another par- ty of scientists under the auspices of the museutn has lately started from Peking to explore the Gobi desert territory in which, they believe was located the gar- den of Eden. The explorers, who are combpletely equipped for the work, will CHRISTIANSTED V. 1L U 8 A SaxtlißbAyY 91 JlLisk. 1028, make a spacial search for fossil rema.. of the earliest human’types.- Ibid.
