Knights Of Pythias Temple was let
Monday to Rutledge Bros. for $2s,-
500. The building operations will
commence at Once-the removal of
the old building having already
been commenced. $4,000 has been
already raised, and it is expected to
get the balance by subscriptions
among citizens. The building being
removed is the oldest business
structure in the city. It was built
in lS67'by the late Charles w. Tres
sin and much admired i'm those
primitive days for its architecture
and graceful appearance. The upper
story was used as a District Court
room, and by the county officers, I'M
til the erection OF the county build
ings. For a number of years after
Mr.. Tressin had retired from bust
ness the lower story was occupied
by Maj. Berks, who was suppOsed.tO
have there the most elegant real
estate office west Of Kansas City.
After the removal Of the Major it
was used for various purposes, and
finally by Mr.. Pearson as a carriage
factory. After the upper story had
been abandoned by the county, il
soon passed into the hands of the
Odd Fellows, and finally into the
hands Of the knights OF Pythias,
who pmrchased the nronerty.

One quiet afternoon a mysterious
shot was heard-not around the
world, but around the block. The
forms OF Hamilton, Will, Haggart,
Bowers aud other personages popped
into view, looking enquiringly into
the nature thereof. IL was charged
first to the JOURNAL engine, but
unlawfully. Whether it was
meteor, somebody rolling nine-pins,
or some suicide that gave forth this
loud report, is not known unto this
day; but there is a bare suspicion
that it was the result Of a dangerous
encounter in which nobody was
wounded, between Davisi and TObi.

It is little curious that the report of DR.
Dallinger's experiments with monads, pub
lished in The Royal Microscopical Journal
has been SO generally passed over in silence
in the more popular records of scientific IN
vestigation- There was nothing of a con.
troversial character in DR.. Dallinger's un-
dertaking. A learned and jealous mem
ber of the Royal society, he merely wished
to see whether the moned, the smallest and
lowest embodiment of animal life visible to
even the aided sight of man, could be trans
muted into new and more advanced species.
In thus doing he carried into effect Darwins
own suggestion that by watching the lowest
and least visible organisms" we can alone
actually observe and demonstrate the man
ner in which living creatures adapt them
selves by outward and inward notifications
to changed circumstances, and so produce
what are called new speciesn

ried on his processes are not spontaneously
