THE WINGED MAN.
Faglin, the Bird-Man of Auvergne-E
Singular Story.


Paris has a Revue des Marveills, and,
if all It's articles are as startling as a re
cent contribution from the pen OF Mr
Harnois Condamine, it certainly has good
claims to the title. This gentleman has
discovered actual evidence of new de
parture among the human race by which
man is eventually to take to himself
wings aud fly through the air. The ap
plcation of faith in the Darwinian theory
of the selection of species TO the pheno
mnnon that Mr.. 1arnois Condamine de
scribes is all that is necessary to forecast
an ostrich like creature as the coming
man, hall Striding, half f1yiu. through the
world. The addition of wings to women
will, of course, make them angels instead
of ostriches.
1t was in the mountains of Auyergne
that the embodiment of the first evidence
of the new departure was discovered
His name was Faglin. He was an
athlete, famous swimmer and great
walker. He appeared to walk as much
with his arms as with his legs. The mo-
ton of the arms increased as he ran un
til. as he is described. ''he seemed to be
actually propelling h,mseI! through the
air like a swimmer who goes through the
water hand over hand" He insisted that
this increased his speed When Andre
died NJ. Harnois Condamine, assisted by
NJ. Bravais, physician of the conserva
tive school, dissected his body. Adnor
NAL developments were found, which tax
en- separately, might be regarded as de
formities, but, together pointed to a new
type-the bird type The arm was Ger
tainly the beginning Of the frame work
Of a wing, according to these gentlemen.
The formation OF the breast, the eogthen
ing of the shoulder blade, the enclosure
OF the thorax and various other develop
ments indicated the same ultimate condi
tion of human being with wings.
At his death Fagln left child. about
a year old, that shows the same develop :

two additional ieatueres of the bird type

dicate rapid advances in the process OF
developing the new species that is pro
missed. This process would naturally be
gradual, and take Its slow course through
marriage and offspring 1t is claimed
that the strength of the muscle required
for flying is not near SO great as has beef
estimated in the past. and that elasticity
is quite as important an adjunct Th,
developments that have been noticed art
of particularly elastic quality NJ Har
nois Condamue proposes to undertake
the education of this child, probably ior
the purpose Of bringing it up as it should
fly.

transcript of the charges, findings, sen

however, Of the certainty required by
law and hence the importance of having
the record taken by commission.

or eight weeks before the commission is
returned and the trial proceeded with
There was considerable comment made

Men and Women.

1t is strange indeed that mems self
condemnation of their coarseness and
vices should be interpreted as delicacy
and chivalry toward women. I'VE are
so WI gar aud vile" they seem to say
THAT we must continue to be vulgar and
vile, to show how tenderly we cherish
how fully we appreciate the dear crea
lures who are better angels" Ii we are
not fitted to be women's companions, il
we go where we should not, so mucl, the
worse for US. IF women are too good for
us. it is our duty to be better. We re
quire reformation, and the best reforma
tion will come to us by admitting women
to what we call, euphemistically enough,
our recreations and our pleasures. That
these are unworthy and rude, il not gross,
for the most part, few of US will deny
BY making women our partial partners,
our associates on occasion, we admit our
inferiority and our fear lest they should
know of US what We know Of ourselves
We have not advanced so far beyond
baronal barbarism and Eastern iudul
we hold our wives and daughters in the
prisons Of ignorance and the seraglos OF
restraint.
1t is not consideration for women that
induces us to keep them in the border
land of acquaintance with our real lives
1t is consideration for ourselves it is su
preme selshness it is engrossing egotsm
We shrink from the thought that the
geDtler and purer beings who love us
and whom we love-when we have naught
else to do-should have perfect uuder
standing, clear revelation of what We
are. 1t is an article of our social creed
that they prefer pleasant illusions to dis
agreeable facts. This is not without its
verify but it evinces the false education
that should be removed. In this age we
live, or ought to live, above everything
else, for truth. Whatever leads thereto
should be followed, though the following
dispel every deception which, from the
first, has been our most grateful food.
The men are precious few that would
be willing their lives should be unrolled
panorama like before their nearest and
dearest feminine friends The thing that
they are vain Of, even to boasting, they
would hide from their wives or mothers
at imminent peril to themselves. The
worship most of US receive is a species OF
sentimen nta fetishism offered under the
deusion that the idol is far more than il
seems that it possesses powers and in
hueuces linking it TO the divine. Trans
