GERMAN BANK ROBBERS.
Bvrglars Said to Be Operating in
Many Sections of Fatherland.
Bank robbers have been operating '
im parts of Germany recently under
the pretext that they were collecting
money for the allies for damages
aused by the German army during
the war.
In one instance, according to stories
published in the German news- ,
papers, at Cologne, Germany, a man
in tne uniiorm 01 a .oeig.an caputm
and accompanied by five guards and
ix Belgian soldiers, entered the bank
of Probst and Company in Aachen
& few days ago, saying he was seeking
stolen money. The man showed
papers purporting to have been
stamped by the Belgian minister*. of
justice, and insisted upon making a
search of the bank's vault to "determine
whether the institution held any
oin stolen in Belgium in 1915."
The man dismissed the entire forec
of clerks and then directed the owner,
Probst, to open the vaults. Afterward
the man locked Probst in his
private office and helped himself to
about 370,000 marks and 75,000 Belgian
irancs.
Probst reported the affair to the
authorities. The robber was arrested
aad the money recovered.

REPTILE'S SKELETON FOUND.
Sage Fossil is Found in Chalk Beds
of Kansas.
\ The skeleton of a huge flying rep.
! tile, probably the largert flviDg creature
that ever existed, which in its
prehistoric day was as wide ranging
n ocean traveler as a modern seaplane,
lias been placed on exhibition
a: the American Museum of Natural
History, it was announced ir New
York right recently. Study of the
mechanics of the creature's flight,
which is planned by scientists, may
throw light on the practic.il problems
of aeronauts, it is declared.
The clumsy, toothless ai mal ?a
pterandon?which flourished in the
age of reptiles, many millions of
years ago. had a wing spread of 16
feet from tip to tip, but be ause of
its curious dimensions may not have
been as heavy as a modern condor,
which sometimes attains a IT.-loot
apread. It was nearly all wings and
bead, with a small body, slender hind
legs, and a mere stump of a tail.
The specimen was found by Handel
T. Martin, curator of the Geologotal
MuMseum of Kansas University,
in the cretaceous chalk beds of the
Smoky Hill river of western Kansas.
It was believed to be the only
mounted specimen of a pterondon in
any American museum.
