II MAN DESCENDED FROM THE RB
TILE?

The London Spectator, of September
9th, says the British Association at
M6ntreal has been greatly moved by
telegram from Sydney, which reads
thus; Caldwell fiads monotremes vi
viparoui, mesoblastic ovum!" That
does not seem to outsiders to be an
epoch-making message; but it is ex-
planned by the scientific to signify that
Mr.. Caldwell. a physiologist Of adequate
knowledge, has discovered that the
lowest known mammal, the drck-billed
platypus. lays eggs like bird, though
it subsequently suckles its young, and
that the structure OF the egg is analo-
gous to that of reptiles; consequently,
a high probability arises that all man.
mails, including man. descended from
reptiles, instead of from amphibia. as
has recently been imagined; aud the.
Darwinian Psychologists are shunted on
a new line, and must study the pedi-
gree of reptiles as the possible channels
through which progressive life descend
ed with a quite new interest. The dis
covery is of value, though it helps
little toward the ultimate questionable
origin OF life on the planet. The exist
ence ef progressive energy in the origi-
nal germ is not the less wonderful be
cause it was developed first through
reptiles, instead of amphibia. How did

PARAGRAPmiCAL NEWS.

An atrocious murder was committed
near the village of Des PLANES, Illinois.
Two men called at the residence OF
Joachim Demlow, two and half miles
south OF Des PLANES, at 9 o'clock at
night, and called Demlow out into the
yard, where they attacked him with a
club and a corn .cutter. His wife ran
TO his assistance, and was also attacked
and killed. A boy ten years old es-
capped from the house aud told the story
of the tragedy to the neSghbors. When
the latter returned the assailants bad
ransacked the house and fled. Mrs.
Demlow was found dead, and her hus-
band in dying condition. The pur-
pose OF the attack was robbery. Armed
parties are now looking for the mur.
derers.
Saturday night fire was discovered
in the boil-r.room of the Northern Hos
pital for the Insane, four miles from
Oshkosh, Wisconsin. Engines were
dispatched from Oshkosh, but the fire
increased so rapidly there seemed little
hopes of saving the institution. There
were 500 inmates confined in the asy-
lum. BY diligent work the fire was
confined to the engiDe.room and laun-
dry, and at midnight was brought under
control. Wild excitement existed
among the inmates, but they were well
handled and none were injured. Two
or three escaped during the excitement,
and searching parties are now after
them. The origin Of the fire is a mys-
terry.
There have been discovered among
the ruins OF the Zuni Aztec cities. near
Albuquerque, New Mexico. spindles
and whorls remarkably like those en-
ployed by the Highlanders. The posi-
tion Of some would indicate an al.
tiquity of at leas. 1000 years.
A number of young children started
bonfire in Chicago and rolled into it
barrel containing resin and turpentine.
The barrel exploded with terrific force,
very seriously burning six children, five
of whom are not expected to survive.

CHICAGO, July 29.-As an emissary of Gen.
Logan, David T. Littler had conference with
Charles B. Farwell yesterday. Its object was to
extend the olive branch of peace to the ex-con-
gresham. Logan offered him his support to se-
cure the United States senatorsh1p if he would
go to work and roll up the oid-time majority for
the Republican ticket in Cook county
The proposition was prompted by Gen Logan, $
fear that he would lose Cook county, his own
home. From gentleman who is very close to
Mr. Farwell it was learned that TO this proposi-
ton Mr.. Farwell would meet Logan half way,
were he sure that the candidate for vice presi-
dent was sincere and did not intend to play him

PARKERsBURG, w. Va, July 29.-To fuse or
the delegates to the Republican state convention.
The Endorsement of Judge Edwin Maxwell, of
Harrison county. nominated for governor by the
Greenback- Labor state convention at Buckharron,
has, at the eleventh hour, developed considerable
opposition from several quarters, notably the
Wheeling delegates, who, backed by the Iatetti-
gencer loudly insist that the proper thing to do is
to nominate a stright-out Republican ticket.
and keep aioof from entanglng alliances of all
kinds. They point out in support of the posi-
ton that to give the Greenbackers three places
on the ticket governor, auditor and spperin-
tendent of schools, when that organization can
only poll few thousand votes. is an injustice to
the $4,000 Republicans in the state and would be
resented by them at the polls. This view of the
situation meets with the disapproval of major
ity of the delegates who characterize such a
course as fragrant breach of faith and unworthy
the party which three months ago pledged itself
to the fusion programme, and now cannot in de-
cency withdraw. The argument will in all prob
ability prevail, and the ticket as foreshadowed
will be as follows Governor, Edwin Maxwell,
of Harrison; auditor, j. H. Burt, of Ohio;
treasurer, Spencer W. Sturm, of Marion;
attorney general, John A. Hutchinson, of Wood;
superintendent Of schools, j. n. Verdall, of
Ritchie; judges Of supreme court, W. FL. H.
Flick, of Berkelry, and Judge j. H. Brown, of
Kanawha.

BLOODY MURRAIN.
A Large Lot of Diseased Cattle Ship
ped from Indian Territory

Especial Telegram to the Globe.
CHICAGO, July ga consignment of seven
teen car loads of cattle, which arrived at the
stock yards yesterday were found to be suffer
ing with fatal disease. Great anxiety prevailed
at the yards, as the stockmen ware afraid it was
Texas fever. Forty animals were found dead in
the cars, and in a few hours thirty-six
more had succumbed out of a
total of 376. The cattle came from the
ranch of O'Byrne & Frazier, in Indian territory,
and were consigned to keenan, & Hancock. Late
last night another batch of 19S came in from the
same parties. DR.. Dewolf, DR.. Poaren, and
Louis Merki visited the. yards to-day Seven
carcasses were opened. and an examination
proved that the beasts were suffering from
bloody murraiu and not Texas fever. This
affects the spleen. Instead of the spleen being
of blood. Bloody murrain, though infectious,
is not nearly much as
Texas fever After consultation, it was deter
mined to send all the cattle to the slaughter
house, where after being killed they will be crit
ically examined by a health officer, who if ne
finds they have not been affected, will allow them
to be sold, but If diseased, will have them de-
stroyed.
SAID Lewis MerKl: VI am SallSned Tn al
O'Byrne 81 Frazier, the shippers of tn cattle,
knew that they were diseased l base my asser-
ton on two facts: First, there
is but very little demand for cattle at present.
and consequently prices are low, and it is not a
good time to ship them in here. Secondly, the
cattle were not in good marketable condition.
Ordinarily such cattle would have been put to
grass and kept there
The pens in which the diseased cattle have
been kept will be thoroughly cleaned and then
kept closed until next spring to prevent any dan
ger of contagion.
