MANKlNO'S THIRD EYE.

It Is Near the Center of the Head and
Is in InnOcuOGs Desuetude.
"There is a kind of lizard found in Vir-
ginia and Maryland that has three eyes
one of them on the top of his head, " said a
man of science the other day TO a representa-
tive Of The Star. 1T is generally supposed
that they are very rare, but, on the con-
trary, they are quite common. You can
find plenty of them if you take the trouble
to look. They are green and about three
inches long"
Are there any other animals in the world
that have three eyes,"
Lots. For example, you yourself have
a third eye, though it has become rudi-
mentary through disuse."
Where is itg'
Just in the middle of your head, as
nearly as its location can be described off
hand ANTAGONISTS know it as the 'pineal
gland, but it is actually an eye that has
become rudimentary Place the tip of your
finger just above the bridge of your nose
and on the level with your eyes. Directly
behind that point about five inches, at the
base Of the brain, is this gland / speak Of.
which the ancients used TO imagine was the
center OF consciousness and the seat of the
TO that Of an eve, but you can find il re-
tanning more of its original development
in some turtles and other reptiles. With
them this gland has still. though in the
middle of the head, an actual eye socket,
an optic nerve connecting with the visual
tract of the brain, and even the pigmentary
inner coat, the object Of which in all eyes
is TO abSorb light. There is no retina. but
It is an Eve for all that. In the case Of the
lizard mentioned this pinesl eye actually
appears at the top of the head and is useful
for seeing with.
There are quite a number Of rudiment-
airy organs in the human body which have
become so because natuse has no longer
any use for them. For example, there is
the thyroid gland in the neck, the only
usefulness of which seems to be in occa-
sloning the disease known as goitre. PEG

THE ATHLETIC PARK.
THE LOS ANGELES CLUB CONSID-
ERING SEVERAL OFFERS.
This City Will Have an Athletic Park in
the Very Near Future-Where Will 1t
Be Located?

Los Angeles will have one of the finest
athletic parks in the west inside of
three months. The Los Angeles Ath-
letic club directors are considering sew
eral propositions just at present, and any
property owner having piece OF availa-
BILE land which he desires to lease for
several years, should notify President
Thayer of the Athletic club without any
further delay, as decision will be
reached in the very near future.
The directors expect to get grounds
large enough to put in third of mile
bicycle track and quarter of mile
running track. This will give plenty OF
room in the center for the playing of
such games as baseball, cricket, foot
ball and lacrosse. The athletes, and
there are several hundred in the city,
are anxiously awaiting developments,
but they will not be disappointed this
time. The Los Angeles Athletic club
directors thoroughly appreciate the TACT
that an athletic park is an actual neces-
sity in city the size of Los Angeles.
The boom such a park as proposed
would give athletic sports is simply in
calculable. The lack OF decent grounds
has retarded the popularity Of all kinds
Of outdoor sports.
Several of the new directors informed
a HERALD man that they were busy
working on several propositions, but
that they were making haste slowly as
they desire to get grounds near in and
OF easy access by several car lines. With
third of a mile bicycle track it is no
record in the state would be broken in
Los Angeles. Besides this every South
ern California record would take tum-
BILE, as the local athletes have had to'
contend with the wind and poorly kept
tracks in the past. Next week the
HERALD expects to announce that work
has commenced on the new grounds.

turn in the district court yesterday on

tice in the district court yesterday on

HER SKIRT FELL OFF.
The Experience of a Young Woman Cy.
cler Who Tumbled.

Los Angeles citizens, even of the most
conservative views, have become used to
seeing bicycles, surmounted by trim and
healthy looking young women, proceed
! ing rapidly about the streets, and re-
Gently HERALD reporter saw an elderly
woman (she must have been fully 60
years old) travelling down Spring street
upon strongly built Hartford, attired
in gray, specialized, dignifed and at
tracing about as little attention as the
ordinary cycler in knickerbockers and
cap.
Accidents will happen, however, even
to the most prudent cycler, and the mis-
chievous imp who causes headers, up
sets and other annoyances to the wheel
men occasionally is ungallant to the
woman cycler.
A HERALD reporter was yesterday
witness to an accident which must have
been excessively annoying to the victim.
1t occurred out on Main street, where
young woman, attired in clothing con-
siderably more fashionable and fancy
than is affected by the ordinary run
of lady cyclers, and consequently
more conspicuous, was riding along rap
idly, when her skirt was caught by the
flying spokes and she came heavily to
the ground. This was not the worst of
it, however, for when she endeavored to
extricate herself from the machine some
of the mysterious fastenings of the skirt
gave way, and she hastily arose attired
in an underskirt, the lower part of
which was of the same fine material
composing the skirt of which she had
just been deprived, while the upper part
looked like patchwork quilt, composed
OF pieces OF vari- colored material.
She hastily ran into store, and sent
out lady clerk for the tangled skirt and
the fallen machine. The contrast be-
tween the extra fine outer clothing and
the makeshifts so unexpectedly exposed
was remarked upon by several persons
within hearing, and several ladies
seemed to take malicious delight in
the modification of one of their sex who
was fortunate enough to own wheel
and know how to ride it.

WANTS HIS MOTHER.
Bright Seitz Does Not Know Where
She Is

During the boom a newspaper man
named Gordon drifted down to Southern
California after having worked himself
out in San Francisco. His bad temper
and dissolute habits got him into sea
OF trouble in this part OF the state, the
same as they had done all over the
coast. He gained considerable notoriety
here by leaving his wife and children.
His wife was a Mrs. Kate A. Seitz, oi
San Diego. Her oldest son, Bright
Seitz, turned up few days ago in Los
Angeles and is now looking for his
mother, whom he has lost sight of in
some inexplicable manner. The boy
says that his mother got divorce from
Gordon and requests that the above be
published in the expectation that it will
come to her notice, and bring her to her
son again.
