GERMAN ENVOYS SPEED TO WEIMAR WITH THE REPLY Teuton Foreign Minister and; Delegates Bear Final Answer : to the National Assembly Versailles, June 17.—The reply of the Allied and associated govern ments to Germany's counter-pro posals of the Peace Treaty and a revised copy of the Peace Treaty to-day are in the hands of Count \ on Broekdorff-Rantzau, on his way to Weimar, to present to the Ger man National Assembly th% final word of the victors in the war. Few changes have been made in the revised Peace Treaty. Five days was the allotted period fixed for the Germans to answer yea or nay to the demands of the Allies, but two days additional have' been granted on insistent pleas. This will extend the time limitation to Monday- June 23. With the revised Treaty, contain ing interlineations in red ink, where changes had been made in it, was a covering note written by Premier Clemenceau, president of the Peace Conference. Without ostentation, Paul Dutasta, general secretary of the Peace Con ference, at 6.49 o'clock last even ing, placed the revised draft of the Treaty and the note in the hands of Gernlan Legation Secretary Si mon and Baron Von Loersner, with whom M. Dutasta held a conversa tion lasting for several minutes, ex plaining the nature of the instru ment and the length of time allotted for the Germans to reply. Hen- Simon protested against the short time allotted Germany to make known her intentions. M. Dutasta arrived in Versailles by automobile from Paris at 6.20 o'clock, carrying the momentus document in two parcels wrapped in prosaic brown paper. He was re ceived by Colonel Henry, master of ceremonies at Versailles, and offi cers of the Allied missions and don ducted to the reading room of the Hotel Reservoirs. Here the party was grouped along one side of the room. In front of M. Dutasta was a large marble-topped table, upon which the documents were placed In two piles. There was a considerable wait before Le gation Secretary Simon and Baron Von Loersner arrived, escorted by two French officers. The Germans took their place at the other side of the table. At 6.49 o'clock Herr Simon in formally reached across the table and took the documents and hand ed them to Baron Von Loersner. this actually constituting the formal re ceipt of the Treaty and the ulti matum. A receipt from the Ger mans for the doeumenet was re quired by M. Dutasta. After the brief conversation be tween M. Dutasta and Herr Simon, the Germans returned to their apartment in the hotel.

Mammoth of Lena Delta Dug Their Own Graves! In the region of the Lena delta, in far northern Siberia, according to an old tradition, there is a gigantic spe cies of mole which, burrowing under ground. dies if by chance exposed to ! light. It has enormous tusks, and the half-savage nomads- of the country sometimes use strips of its thick hide for reindeer harness. Truth to tell, the "mole" is the long extinct man moth, and the last surviving specimen perished long before the earliest dawn j of human history. Indeed, it may very well be that 100,000 years have passed since the youngest mammoth walked the earth. In their day these huge mammals roamed in herds all over northern —Siberia, where the climate was mild and salubrious. But there came a sudden change and Jack Frost I established a permanent reign in that I part of the world. The mammoths, huddled in the val- I leys, were overwhelmed by snow j drifts which hardened to solid ice. , preserved their bodies intact even Ito the present time. Now and then the hot sun of the short Arctic sum mer melts out and revealß to view one of the great carcasses—the meat still fresh enough to be fed to the dogs. The eyeballs of one specimen found on the Tas river, between the Obi and the Yenessei, were as per fect as if the animal had been killed only a day or two earlier. To the northeast of the mouth of the Lena, which is one of the great rivers of the world, rising in eastern Siberia and flowing northward to the Arctic ocean, is a group of islands which must formerly have been connected with the mainland.
