now has 100 members. The object of this

The eEHaiaa SEA QUESTION.
The Navy d apartment Expects TO Make
a Parnsie, If Nothing Else.

NEW York, March S.--A Washington
special says: "The navy department re-
cards the recent developments of the
Behring sea question with great satis-
faction. As in the dark days of the
Chilian trouble, it sees a possible chance
of at least a naval parade, il not some
thing better suited to the taste of every
man in the service"
1t takes very little to start war talk in
Washington. and Lord Salisbcry's ulti-
matum that he will not consent to re-
newal of the 1nodus yivendi i'll Behring
sea has proved sufficient. The tire-eating
lieutenants are already specializing on
the necessity of Uncle Sam sending a
force IF vessels to the northern waters to
protect the seals in Behring sea, and
keep off the poachers. Fortunately the
navy department is better prepared for
this service than it was a year ago.
There are nine vessels, all in serviceable
condition, available for Behring sea
duty. These are the Baltimore, Charles
ton, Mohican and the Adams, now at
Mare Island; the Boston and the York
town, en- route from the south to San
Francisco; the San Francisco, at Homo
lulu; the Ranger, in Lower California,
and the Thetis, at Sitka, Alaska.
If these vessels have nothing else y
do but capture sealers they would be
more than enough for the purpose, but
England has seven formidable vessels in
Pacific waters, and fleet of fifteen 9th
ers on the China station that can be sent
to Behring sea as quickly as we can get
ours there. The American navy woul
cut pretty lame figure in its efforts to
seize English sealing vessels if Englan1
should attempt to interfere, as she pr D
ably would. The English vessels in the
Pacific at the present time are, the 8, ,40J-
ton armored cruiser Warspite, the 2,3C y
ton cruiser Champion, the 3,000-ton
cruiser Melpomene, the Nymph, the
Garnet, the Pheasant and the Daphne.

THE GREAT LAKES.
Our DefenselesS Condition i'm
That Direction
Mentioned by Secretary Tracy
in an Interview.

1t is in Accordance with a Treaty Be-
tween Uncle Sam and John Bull-The
Brjtishers Have the Best of 1t, as They
Can Keep Vessels III the st. Lawrence
New YORK, March SIN an inter-
view with Secretary of the Navy Tracy,
published here, these passages occur:
"Does it ever occur to you, Mr.. Sec
retary, that on our great lakes, where
we have SO many large and growing
cities, we are next t. defenseless"
"That is in accordance with treaty
regulations, which prohibit either the
United States or Canada from keeping
more than one war vessel on the lakes,
and that one of very little account in
these days. l do not know that it would
be necessary to alte: this state of things
Hitherto it has worked very well for
both countries. If we were to increase
our armament on the lakes, the other
side would do the same. think, how
ever, that tho treaty should be extended
to elnEiace the st. Lawrence river as
well as the lakes, for now British war
ships cone into The st. Lawrence, and
Cal lie close to the Welland canal, and
they might pass through suddenly in
case of a c7ick springing up of war.
AS wars in these days happen, congress
alone has the power to declare war
The president can not do SO. He
might exert an illegal power under
great provocation but that is not prob
able. If the British, under the treaty
would keep the lower st. Lawrence
clear of their war ships, we would have
less apprehension about the upper
lakes"
"Mr. Secretary, what do you see hang
ing over this country to give us appre-
hensionW

Dental election TO inspire us with alarm.
If We ever come that we may find our
selves instantly in the situation of the

THE DARWIN THEORY
Practically Dem onstrated by u Lexington

Practically Demonstrated by Lexington
(Ky) Scientist.
LExINGTc N, March S.-Mr. A. J. Shid-
dell, of 81 South Mill street, is a strong
believer in Darwin's theory respecting
the evolution of man and other animals,
and as soon as that great man began to
attract attention he began to study up
the new subject. In 1874 Mr.. Shiddell,
in order to test Darwins theory of like
producing like procured a pair Of
white mice. These specie of mice, Mr..
Shiddell says, produced every thirty
days, and from six to twelve each time.
He has calculated that one pair will in
thirteen months produce one and half
millions of mice. il none die or are de-
stroyed. The pair Mr.. Shiddell procured
produced at first ten young. With q pair
of scissors he cut the tails off all the
young, and bred again from the latter.
This second produce he also detailed,
and so on with each succeeding genera
ton. By the time the tenth generation
was reached the tails had all disappear
ed, and he had a large number Of mice
without even the suggestion of caudal
appendage. Mr. Shiddell says he killed
all the weallings in each generation,
and bred only from the best specimens.
In this way all disease was extermin-
ated, and the mice got to be double the
size of the original pair. From this he
argues that the human race can be rid
of disease and made stronger by ju-
dicious mating.
He instanced the good results and
greater beauty and strength shown by
carefully selected and bred horses, cat
tie, sheep, dogs and chickens, all Of
which are well known. Mr.. Shiddell
says the same care and selection will
produce like results throughout the en-
tire domain of animal life. He instanced
the vast number of different breeds Of
chickens, all of which have their
fountain head in the gallus baukiva, OK
wild jungle fowl of India, fowl
identically like red game bantam, ex-
cept that it has very small comb and
no wattles. New breeds were made by
mating birds with like peculiarities, and
the same continued until these peculiari-
ties were intensified and fixed perma-
nently. Mr.. Shiddell continued his ex-
periments to the ninety-sixth genera
ton, covering a period of eight years, by
which time he had bred the tails back
ON again, the last generation having
tails like the first pair. White mice,
Mr.. Shiddell says, commence producing
at thirty days of age, and he thinks il
there were no cats or other animals to
prey ON them, in few years they would
devour the human race and all the
crops in the world.

A SYNDICATE MAY SOLVE 1T.
Big Price Offered for the indianapolis

been given a thirty days option on the
Citizens Railway company. The syndi-
cate is headed by J. G. Shaffer and the
option price is So, 750, 900.
S. w. Allerton, one of the heaviest
stockholders of the road, denied to re.
porter that the option had been given.
Mr.. Shaffer, an indianapolis dispatch
says, while neither affirming or denying
the report, spoke in manner that led
to the belief that the option had been
secured. He admitted his recent visit
to Chicago was for the purpose of secur-
ing such an option, and also admitted
that his visit had not been wholly with
out success.

ZINC ORE IN INDIANA.
Deposits of the Rare Metal Found in
Carroll County.


Carroll County.
DELPHI, Ind, March S.-Lease hunt
ers are now lowering around what is
supposed to be rich zinc deposit along
Rock creek, in this county. Several
weeks ago young man from the Rock
creek neighborhood went to Logans-
port, and III an Office there saw some
zinc ore from Joplin, Mo. Asking what
it was he was told, and replied that
there was lots of it along Rock creek,
and when he went home sent several
pounds of the deposit to Logansport.
The result was that several capitalists,
headed by Senator A. r. Shroyer,
hastened to the place, and leased about
1000 acres before any one else knew
what was going on. Now that the secret
out, scores of people are trying to get a
lease. The Shroyer syndicate has ar
ranged to sink a shaft, and work will be
commenced within few days. The ex-
citement in the neighborhood is up to
fever heat, and there are many pros
pectiye millionaires.

Woman Who Presents the Alleged Gift
to De Buried During Lent.
ST. PETERSBURG, March S.-While
the czarina and czarovitch were ont
driving on the Nevsky Prospect Sunday
afternoon, tall map with dark mus
tache and wearing loose overcoat ran
out from the crowd and threw parcel
at the carriage. He evidently intended
that it should fall inside the window,
but it dropped to the ground several
feet from the rear weels
The czarina saw the man take some
thing from under his coat. She turned
white, half rose from her seat and then
sank back ON her sons shoulder. The
coachman drove on with all speed,
shouting to the police on the drive, and
pointing toward the man, who hurried
off through the crowd. Several arrests
were made within few minutes, but
with what results can not be ascertained.
The bundle consisted of metal recep-
tacle, containing fluid not yet analysed,
and covered with loose black cloth.
Candle FILLED With Explosives.
LONDON, March IA dispatch from
San Sabiastian, Spain, states that
woman presented to one of the churches
there huge candle weighing sixty
pounds, to be burned during Lent. 1t
was explained that the candle was in
tended to furnish light throughout the
exact Lenten period. The gift was suit
ably acknoN edged in the presence of an
immense congregation, and the sacristan
proceeded to light the candle, but there
seemed to be some fault in its construc-
ton, as the wick failed to remain light
ed. After three futile attempts had
been made the officiating priest, becom-
ing suspicious that something was
wrong, ordered that the candle be re-
moved and examined. This being done,
the startling discovery was made that
the interior of the candle was filled with
powerful explosives. Had the sacristan
succeeded IN making it burn, terrible
explosion must have resulted, with con-
sequences awful to contemplate, in view
of the crowded condition Of the church.
The lady who had donated the candle
had disappeared before the deadly char
acter of the gift was discovered 1t is
conjectured that she was an agent of the
anarchists, their object being to destroy
the building. 1t is thought possible that
they believed the explosion would not
occur until after the throng of worship
ers had left the building, but there is q
feeling of intense Indignation among the
people, and it will go hard with any one
upon whom suspicion falls as the author
of the vile plot
