GIANT LIZARDS FOUND. Considered Mont important Zoological i nt.Is of Modern limes. New York, Sept. 10. -Two giant lizard*, survjvalg of the "fiery" dragons of prehistoric times, arrived today on the Kunard liner Aquitania. Each is eight feet long, weights 200 pounds and has a body us thick as a man's, covered with a close protective armor. The great saurians, long sought by zootogogists, were captured by Douglas Burden, a trustee of the American Museum pf Natural History, on the Island of Komodo, in the MaJ,ay archipelago. They are in the care of Prof. K. It. Dunn of Smith college.' The likenes?rof the "dragons'' has been blazoned on the fiag of Ching for 4,000 yeare, The big lizards have red, forked'tongues and sometimes make a loud, hissing noise, like escaping steam, just as their "fire breathing" ancestors did. Their legs are short and atubby and each foot has four claws. Their tails ?re spiked. The discovery and capture of the two "dragons", which are entirely carniverous, is one of the most important zoological finds of modern times, scientists say. They are the only ones in captivity. The Aquitania's butcher pushed two chickens into the heavy wooden cage for the morning meal, but they roosted almost ' contemptuously, on the spiked tail of one of the monsters, both of which moved listlessly in their cage after their sea voyage. ??Doctor Dunn said one of the "draonB" the expedition saw jumped on the back of a horse, dragged it down and injured it so severely that it had to be shot. Another at one meal ate the hindquarters of a native deer "and was back for more two days latre." They can run faster than a man, Doctor Dunn said. It is believed the animals are lineai descendants of a species that once lived, in China and Australia and that now exist only on the little almost forgotten island where the Burden ex^r I pedition pitched it scamp . The Highly Edible Muskrat. We are indeed pained at the announcement made (by Dr. Charles E. Johnson, of Syracuse University, to the effect that the muskrat - makes ?ood eating, and we are even more pained that the newspapers have published this announcement, apparently under the impression that it is news. We do not deny it would have been news 300 years ago, if published iirra London journal under the caption, "Intelligence From The New World," but that it is news now we stoutly deny, and we shall defend our position" ifnecessary with quotations fjaom the authorities. ... Yes, ipuskrat is good eating. The meat is like' a squirrel meat, but has, to our thinking, a (better flavor. We take issue "with Doctor Johnson when he says it should be dipped in a hatter of flour and meal, then fried in lard.. Evidently he-is-under the impression that a muskrat is first cousin0 to a rabbit. Muskrat should be fried without any hatter. .It should be served M a thin gravy so seasoned i and enrkheel by chopped hard boiled egg that it ds lep a gravy than a sauce. EafciAg should be prefaced by suitable incantations and accompanied with sherry wine, so that the cere mo-' ny for terrapin. There should be noj 'unpleasant^.aftermeffeets^ -but if Shy are felt, the proper remedy is to eat more muskrat and drink, more wino. ?New York Evening "World.
