TALE OF A RUBBER DOLL
Railroad Passengers Indignant by What
Appeared to he Cruel Treatment.

The train was Just about to start. says
a writer in the N. Y. Telegram. There
were three of us in the carriage-my-
self and two ladies-when q young man
thrust himself in, carrying a baby. he
looked very young to be engaged in
such a manne Young men of about
% years of age (and he looked no
older) do not travel about carrying
babies; at least / had never seen any be-
fore. He seemed very awkward with
it. and it protested every now and then.
The two ladies began talking and l
listened
"How nice it is for young men to be
SO domesticated!"
Eyes, indeed; what a little darling it
is, too-so quiet"
"Aha! ha-a! ha-a!" remarked the little
darling in u shrill tone.
"Ssut up!" said the young gentleman,
roughly pinching it.
"l5aahaahaua!' said the baby.
The young man gave it q violent
shake. The ladies assumed a threaten
ing aspect.
"Sir," said one of them, "babies in
commissions are not usually treated in
that manner, and unless you desist Mt
once shall feel it my duty to call the
guard"
q shall do what l like" said the
young man, and, taking the baby by
its long robe, he began to swing it
round and round, so that its head came
in contact with the door frame after
each revolution, the s~hrieking becoming
terrific.
l got up and pushed him away from
the door; before l could put my head
out of tho window to ummon the
guard, however, he laid his hand on my
arm and placed the baby on the seat of
the carriage, says a contributor to Tit
BITS.
Look here. sir" he said, "you may
call the guard if you like, but recoliect
that this baby is mine; therefore. I've a
right to do what l like with it. It's
mine-I paid for it,"
You what, sir" | gasped.
The train stopped. He got out, leav-
ing on the seat a broken rubber baby.

vlRcHow AGAINST DARWIN.

ae Says That a "Shesp Theory" Is just u
Plausible as the "Monkey Theor,.
Prof. Rudolph virchow declared him.
self emphatically against the Darwin,an
theory of the origin of the species at
the convention of anthropologists
which mot recently at Annsbruck. Vir>
chow is considered by many competent
Judges the greatest anthropologist liv-
ing. He has probably made more meas.
urements of the representatives of vari-
Gus races and tribes than any othep
specialist.
In his address at Innsbruck Virchow
did not mince words in his attack upon
Darwin, whose theories, he said, in
stead of aiding the researches of an,
thropologists, had been hindrances to
them. Darwin himself" he contin-
ued. 'refrained at first in his explana-
ton of his law Of development, in the
work on the origin of species, from up
plying 1t to human beings. There has
been q long investigation of this tho
DRY. Tho attempt vas made to solve
the question by speculation. and the
monkey theory was set up. 1t would
have been just as easy to come to y
sheep theory"
This monkey theory" as Virchow
likes to call the ideas of Darwin, had
been harmful to a%nthropolo0y. An
thropology today, however, bothered
Itself little about this theory, which
was started twenty-five years ago. An
thropologists had to accept the actual
world, and the race question naturally
appealed to them. II was impossible,
in Virchow's opinion, to say whether or
not q colored race could descend from
Que not so marked; no positive exam
pie existed. Such a thing in tho case
of an individual was looked upon as q
pathological event.
M%etaplasia (change from one kind to
anotherl, Virchow declares. could not
take place without anomaly. This
anomaly could become hereditary. If
that took place in a family, "we come
upon the heriditary variation, and by
multiplication we get the race. We
know that race can retrograde. Where
we find an example Of atavism we must
ask the question, Of course, whether
this atavism is not q proof that the
race developed from a being of that
kind. 1t is almost always impossible
to speak with certainty regarding the
origin of q race or tribe"

drawn through the tip Of the nose and
half way between the eyes. On each
side of this middle line there will be the
same breadth of head, of cheek, of chip
and of neck, and each iris will be in the
middle of the whole of the ayes. If one
