RAND Chances in Sciences.

The great leaders In science need to
be modest in claiming that their prop
ositions are absolutely true. and should
be cautious in announcing that they
have made u new discovery. Professor
Huxley gained for season brilliant
reputation by announcing that he had
discovered protoplasm to be the source
of all organic life. But soon after DR..
Lionel Bealc, the great English micro
scOpist. denied the truth Of Professor
Huxley's theory, and asserted that bio
plasm must be- put in the place Of pro.
toplasm.
The eulogies over Mr.. Darwin's grave
are yet fresh. They lifted him to place
among the immortals. for his wonderful
discovery Of progress In creation by the
law Of natural selection.
But now comes Mr.. Towne. who has
for years been studying with the best
naturalists and biologists of Europe.
and announces that life 10 not due to
protoplasm, but to atomized charges Of
electricity conducted into the system by
the oxygen of respiration. Variations,
he says. are caused not by natural selec-
ton. but by the action OF electricity on
reproductive germs. Mr.. Towne holds
to the theory Of evolution. but not to the
form which gave worldwide reputa-
ton to Mr.. Darwin. The famous Prof.
Helmholtz, one of the highest authori-
ties in Europe. is said to agree with Mr..
Towne.
1t may not be to the point to ask who
shall decide when scientists disagree.
But it is certainly pertinent to say that
such disagreementss should make philoso-
pliers modest and cautions.

When the Generals o. Ont.

The Cincinnati Commercial saws
Now that Generals Pope and Mackenzie
have been awarded the coveted Major
and Brigadier Generalships, those who
were left out in the cold are busy figur-
ing upon their chances for promotion
when the next vacancy occurs in the
list of General officers. In the natural
course of events the eleven General Of
ficers will retire from active service as
follows:
General Sherman, February 8, 1884.
Lieutenant General Sheridan. June,
1894.
Major General Hancock. March, 1888.
Major General Schofield, November,
1895.
Major General Pope, July. 1886.
Brigadier General Howard, June.

Brigadier General Terry, 1892.
Brigadier General Augur, August.
1885.
Brigadier General Crook, July, 1898.
Brigadier General Miles, July. 1895.
Brigadier General Mackenzie, August,
1894.
The above statement will prove inter
esting to the army. as the records Of tho
ages Of officers are guarded as sacredly
at che War Department as IL they were
jewels. Il will be seen that Brigadier
General Augur. commanding the De-
partment Of the South, will be the first
to retire, and General Miles the last. -
II the system Of seniority prevails.
General Miles will assume command Of
tho army within the next twelve years
and remain at its head for at least ten
years.

Mopkev Meanness.

The trait which we call "hoggishness"
seems to be shared 10y all animals, when
any opportunity is given for the strong
to rob the weak. Brutes of the ape
family, ut least. are not above the exhi-
bition of cowardly selfshness. The
Philadelphia Times sketches "Topsy"
''Molly." the two new chimpanzees, eat
ing dinner at the Geological Garden in
that city:
No sooner had Topsy received her
banana than she took one bite out of II,
and then looking around. saw the baby
devouring its portion Of the fruit. Top
sy quietly took the remaining portion Of
her banana and stealthily secreted it In
the hay on the bottom Of the cage
Then turning. she walked up to the ba-
by and, in the rudest manner imagina-
bic. snatched out Of its hands the below
cd morsel. and. coolly turning to the
other side OF the cage. began to eat it
with evident relish.
The action Of the baby chimpanzee
WAS more than ever calculated to justify
the Darwinian theory. With a pitiful
cry almost perfect in resemblance TO the
human voice. she got up and ran after
the old chimpanzee. reaching which she
touched her gently on the shoulder with
her hand.
This had no effect, rs Topsy kept on
eating the banana with an absorbing
satisfaction. The baby then with an
other cry went up further and placed its
little nose against the cheek OF the eld-
er chimpanzee, and with its wide. hazel
eyes full Of reproach looked at the older
one.
Topsy. however. is anything but we'll
bred, and ate the banana up and then
went back and dug out her own from
the hay and began on that. The baby
followed her. not to make any forcible
demonstration. but simply to transtix
her selfish sister with her reproachful,
wonderfully expressive eyes.
Topsy would have eaten the banana
and everything else that belonged to the
meal had not the keeper interfered and
proceeded TO teach her manners. He
forcibly took the banana from her and
gave it to her sister. and then pointed
his finger at her TO shame her. The eyes
Of the little animal seemed to show that
she felt her position strongly.
