UNABLE TO EXPLAIN HORNS at Lots to Account for Growth Which en Head of Horce. One of the strangest freaks of nature Is the horse with horns. Such horses are foaled occasionally, nnd have provided a rich field of speculation for scientists. Certainly the presence of the horns would seem to indicate that In some far-away period this animal was so provided by nature.

But a colt near Il'oKorsvllle, tho existence of which Is on record, had a curved born Just below the aperture, of the right eye. This Is approximately the same position from which sprout tho horns of many animals whose horns have a full growth. Despite thin evidence of a return to some earlier state of development, no trace of their presence can be found on any of tho skulls of horses which belonged lo other atfoa. Thousands of thoso skulls have boon uncovered In many lands.

Tht' oldest goes back just S.000,000 years, und is of size to Indicate that the horse of tlmt tlmo was no larger than a good-sized dog. First Naval Battle.
