The Decline of the Nose.

Among the many startling disclosures
with which scientific investigation has
made US familiar, one OF the most extrav-
agant is the discovery according to
which the nose is said to be gradually
dosing its power to discharge its tradi.
tional function in the case of the civilized
peoples. When the sense of smell
vanishes altogether-as, it is affirmed,
will infallibly be the case one day-the
organ itself is bound to follow its en-
ample sooner or later. 1t is, no doubt,
a fact that the olfactory sense is much
keener in the savage than in the civilized
man, and it is reasonable to conclude
that the more we progress in civilization
the duller the sense will grow, and as
nature never preserves useless organs,
when the nose loses its power of smelling
the nose ''must go."-London Iron.

The German Soldiers Equipment.

A new outfit Is being rapidly intro
duced throughout the whole German
army. One, indeed, of the alterations,
as 1t does not involve any new equip
ment, has been already taken up by all
the reglments-that is, the strapping of
the overcoat round the knapsack instead
OF over the shoulders and across the
body. This has The great advantage of
allowing the man to breathe more freely
and to open his coat if he wishes. The
knapsack itself has been changed and is
of longer shape than before. 1t con-
sists of two parts, the knapsack proper
and the pocket, the former containing
the soldiers linen. the latter the famous
''pease sausage" and bacon. The belt
is, in the new outfit, all important, and
serves to make the whole equipment fast.

Alleged Case Of Cruelty To
a Small Baby.
THE AMUSEMENT PROGRAMME.
The funniest To Be Held To-Day
At the Arroyo SecO-Grand
Ball Tonight.

A case OF alleged cruelty to children
came to light yesterday, ard an applica-
ton was made in the afternoon to the
Superior Court for the child by Mrs.
Watson. 1t appears that a number of
neighbors to man and woman named
Dunbar, residing at No. Sc Sainsevain
street, complained to the police that a
fourteen-weeks old baby belonging to the
Dunbars was being neglected. Captain
Lpomis and Mrs. Watson investigated
the case, and state that the mother fol-
lows disreputable calling and neglects
her baby, and that when she is at home
she and her husband fill the room full of
opium smoke, to the detriment OF the
child's health. Judge O'Melveny, after
hearing this statement of the case, ordered
the child to be brought before him at 5
O'Clock last evening. An officer was sent
for the child, but it and its parents
were not found until too late for the mat
ter to be heard last night and the case
will come before the Court on Monday
The parents stated at the police station
that the child was placed in charge of a
nurse while the mother was away.
