Taking first the question Of physical
similarity, Prof Huxley pointed Gu.
by the aid of a diagram, in which force
was given to the illustration by the
skeleton Of the animal being raised on
hind legs, that in internal construc
ton the only difference between man
and the dog was one of size and pro
portion. There was not a bone in the
one which did not exist in the other
not single constituent in he OF, that
was not tn he found in the other. In
the case Of dog there was not that
which, on superficial examination, an.
swered to the collar. bone of man but
close dissection would disclose, in the
case Of the lower animal, little bone.
varying in length from a third to half
an inch, occupying the same place as
the human collar bone. 1t appears
to nc Of no functional importance. but
there it was. Ths g'eat toe, which
was conspicuous iii the man, Was only
rudlnentarily represented in the dog /;

and proportion and of attitude. Man
and dogs were constructed bv the same

Last Tuesday afternoon several Chi.

that one of their number had the point
of a knife blade stuck in one side of

The sharp edge of the broken end had

opposite the back molar Of the upper

out with pair OF forceps but could
not. Then with the assistance of Dir,

drew out Il knife blade two and one.

Pr0f. Tice's Theory OF Cyclones

In reporting the result of his OBJ.
servatlons along the track of the tor
nado which proved SO fatally destruct
i've at MarshfieId, Mo-, Prof. Tice. of
> Louis, expresses the opinion that
al such whirlwinds, so called. are elec-
trlcal storms, not wind storms. There
was. he says, no wind attending Marsh
field tornado. Among the evidences
OF the electrical nature of that storm
he notes the fact that it DESTROYED
every building that had tin roof or
whlth had any metal of any kind in
its roof. In Marsh icld it passed di-
rcc;iv, over several buildings with
shingled roofs, and tore to fragments
others. not more exposed, which had
metal roofs. a mill situated over "a
quarter of Il mile away from the center
Of the cyclone had it's iron chimney
torn oht and carried u long distance
while the will is If suffered very little
damage. The cupalo OF the public
school building at Marshtie!d. which
had tin rocf, was wrecked, but the
building, which was rooted with shin
g'es. was not injured to any extent.
Even more conclusive and remark
able, he thinks, were the phenomena
manifested IN connection with the trees
and the schrubhery. The bark was
stripped from the trees and bushes not
alone on those sides exposed to the
force Of the cyclone, bat on all sides.
The ends of The branches were not ollv
denuled Of ,heir leaves and bark, but
We're rifted into fine iibrrs, so that
they presented the appearance Of little
hrooms. The active agent in such
cases, he insists, was not wind. but
electricity. Under its inGucnoe the
sap under the bark was instantly con,
verted into vapor of gas, expanding
two thou sand times in volume. and. Us,
by an explosion, threw off the bark,
shattered the trunk. and split the
green twigs into !ihres That it is
what took place is, he says, constantly
proved ''by the fact that the dead and
dry limbs and twigs were not affected.
and though in immediate contact with
green ones, remained idtact"
