Draw ing n mop haired negro, he said that
this type ot negro--the Bongo Shillook-is
found un upmnds along the White Nile.
! The snil on which he lives is red brown, qpd
| his color is assimilntcd to that of the soil.
| He is rcdirown. Drawing another negro,
with friazed hair and lips exceedingly thick
| he said that such ncgroes-a tribe calle'i
Dinkas lived ON the lowands along the
White Nile Their soil isjct black and
their color assinilates to that of their soil.
the Dinkas are jrt black. Their habitat is
like that Of the stnrk and fiamingo, and they
nre the stolks and tAmingoes of men, With
| little heads long necks, long and lNnk limbs,
| flat and spreading feet, they stride stork. like
over the fats. and stand, tlamingo like, hours
, a, n time, m0tionless IN one leg. Here We
! tind the same kind of adaptation between
color anil habitat, and form and habit, we
had found among animals. If now we are
constrained to think thatethe lion WIS made
tawny at once for tie tawny saud, and the
tiger striped for the striped jungle, and the
polar bear white Tor the snow, the parrot
green for the tree, We slnll be constrained
to say that the red,hrown Bungo came from
u red brown Adam, made redbr0wn ut once,
! mate perchance from his own vdbrnwn
! earth, and that the black Danka came from
a jet black A lam, made pcrchance from the
black earth Of his dwelling place But the
old belief in direct and inStantnriuus Great
i've acts, which long ago faded out of as,ro-
nomy, has faded out Of geology, and is Ed
ing uut ofethno!ogy.
IIE HUMAN FAMILY HAS BEEN REPRESENTED
as tree with branches. Viry would say
two branches, JacQnnot three, Kant four,
BIumcnbuch five, Button six, Hunter scven
Ag' siz eight, Pickering eleven, Borg St.
Vincent fifteen, Des Mullins six teen, Morton
twcntytwo, aud Crawi'urd sixty. From
these attempts ut classification it will he
seen how the branches OF our tree interlace
BY number ofchHlk dots the speaker indi.
Gated the tips Of certain branches Of the i'm
aginary tree. Drawing lines dOwnwnr,
from the Portugcsr Spanish, italian anl
French, he mg,lr them meet in the Roman,
Drawing lines tlo~ inward from the Greek,
the Hindoo, the Persian, the German, anti
the English, nn, continuing the line down
ward from the Roman, he made them al
meet in pre- historic times in ,he Aryah.
South of tho Baltic is an insulated pOple
called the Es,honians. They are the oldest
race in Europe, and exist to day rs mere
remnant. They are but semi civilized Re
lated to this race are the Firms and IlungH
riuns. Drawing lines down from these races
he made them unite far down in one racr,
and continuing II line down from this race
he made it spring how down from the AryiA
stem. Projecting our minds into prehistoric
times We find all the civilized and progress
i've races and one scn, civilized and station
ury race, united in single trunk, IN branch,
the Aryan.
4 strongly marked race is that Of the jew
and Arab. Another strongly marked race
is that of the negro, and another shat of he
Chinnmnn. In India there are hundred
und thirty million non. Ilndoos-a rlce sns
tuinng the same relation to ASIA as the Is
tbonnns of Europe, and the Indians 10 Amer
len. On the islands of the Pacific is another
race differing from island to isand, hot es'
sentaly one people. Over America, North
and Sonth il another race, cut up into many
tribes.
The speaker would break through the lin
puistic barrier which time has erected he
tween the Jew and the Chinnmnn and carry
the lines hnck from these races until they
met in times long before the birth Of history.
From the negro, the non Hindoo vi India,
the Pacific Islander and the American Indian
he carried the lines down till they met the
same line and blended into one common
trunk or branch. Pr jecting our minds into
yerv long ago. we see humanity in two
dominant races, Arynn and Negritto. From
the Aryan Game the white rnces, the civil
lied d progressive races. From the Ne
CRITIC came the black races, the brown races,
the olive races, the red races, the savage
races. the semi civilized and stationary races.
The centre OF the Aryan was Asin, The CEN
tire of the NegrittO was Africa, nr continent
now ON the bottom of the Pacific and Indian
oceans.
Years ago, Prof. Agassiz pointed out the
fact that man the world over suStains certain
relations to the animal kingdom arOund him
that each zone of animal life is special zone
of human lite. Let Us take this hit vi Agnss-
izism into n realm which Agassn himself
did not enter.
We have found the different races Of men
clustered around two centers. two leading
types. Now there are
TWO GREAT MAN-LIKE APES.
The home of the gorilla is Africa The home
Of the orang IL B0rneo, once II part Of Asia.
Drawing the gorilla, the speaker compared
him with the negro: drawing the OPnng, he
compared him with the Caucasiap, What
ever force it was that blackened the skin,
and depressed the brow, anh crisped the
hair, and aborted the abin Of tue negro, the
