morning, while attempting to milk a
COW. Just how the accident occurred
Mrs. Curtis does not seem to know,
but it is thought that upon catching
hold of the rope to which the COW was
attached, the animal started on a lump
and jerked Mrs. Curtis to the ground
with such violence as to break the
arm. The breaks are very close to
the hand and the fall was so great as
to drive the bones through the flesh
in two different places.

cestors were highly civilized when the
progenitors of European people were

The trouble is to see how the
original population of China ever
arrived at the stage when, as the
article says, they were highly CT

difficulty of thinking in a mono

now. Their alphabet was never
less cumbrous than at present.
"The progenitors of European

stop suddenly in Asia?
But the World does not give
up the problem at that point. 1t
seems to treat the situation as
simply dry spell in Asiatic evo-

by renewed activity of the origi-

says:
Perhaps We had better have the exist

Giving Them Nick Names.

The towering dignity of a num-
Der of United States Senators has
received a shock by reason of the
fact that the Democratic press has
given them profane nick-names
which are likely TO cling to them
the remainder of their lives. The
New York World, for instance,
started off by calling Senator
Smith, of New Jersey, Sugar
House Jim," and the result was
that other papers tried their hands
at inventing nick-names of an ap-
propriate character for those Sem
ators who served the Sugar Trust
SO faithfully, and consequently we
see the junior Senator from West
Virginia figuring in dispatches
and editorials as "Candy" Cam
den, and, no doubt, in the course
of a short time Mr.. German and
his ally, Mcpherson of New Jer-
sey, will wake up some morning
and find catchy nickname stick.

Evolution Absurdities.

The Neu York World no doubt
shares in the modern fad of smart
Alexis that evolution is a law of
nature, that all the life and all
variety of life we're contained in
an original germ which required
only time to develop into what
ever we now see of living things.
One of the very latest of these de-
velopments was that of the ape
into a man. Man himself was
then a savage of the lowest posi-
bic type, scarcely human, who by
the lapse of myriad centuries and
the force of the original germ
power has gradually developed
into intelligence and cultivation
and is still going forward fulfill
ing that memorable law of endless
unfolding into higher grades.
The The York World, in a late
article, exemplifies the truth that
the evolutionists are certainly
running across facts absolutely
inconsistent with their pct theory
and which they dispose of by sim.
ply ignoring them. Thus. in the
article referred to, it says:

1t Reduces the Duty on Tin Plate to One
Cent Per Pound and on Terne Plates
to Three-Quarters of Cent.
HITS WORKINGMEN HARD
Bynum Says 1t Equals a Wage
Reduction of 22 Per Cent.
Notice Served by Senator VOORHEES, that
the Bill Will Be Taken Up for De-
bate on April 2.
Special to the indianapolis Journal.


WASHINGTON, March 20.-Indana's tin
plate industry was given another sharp
blow by the Senate finance committee re-
vision of the Wilson tariff bill. reported
to-day. The Senate committee reduced the
duty on tin plate fixed by the House OF
one and one-tenth cents per pound to /
cent pound, which is the same as the
committee fixed upon pig lead, a raw ma
terial The committee reduced the duty ON
black or terne plates from nine-tenths Of
a cent TO three-quarters of cent per
pound, which is the same duty levied upon
lead ore The secret of this lies in the
fact that Senator Vest, of Missouri, is
member Of the finance committee, and Mis-
souri, has great lead ore and lead smelling
interests. All of the revisions made by the
Senate committee were in direct conflict
with the interests of Indiana. Representa-
tive Bynum said to-day that the revision
of the Senate committee on tin plate and
black plates represented a reduction OF the
price paid the labor to the extent OF p per
cent. A Republican says the mechanics
and laborers Of Indiana should bear this In
mind, and remember that Daniel w. Voor-
hees is chairman of tire Senate finance
committee, which made this revision.
The drop of four and half points In the
price of Sugar Trust stock to-day was the
result of a change of opinion in Wall street
as to the likelihood of the Wilson tariff bill
finally becoming a law. The value Of Sugar
Trust shares has been maintained by large
holders during the past few days, who be-
lieved that the tariff bill would finally fau
of passage, but ii appears that they now
believe the serious differences have been
adjusted and the bill will be finally adopted.
Leading Democratic and Republican MEM
bers of the House believe that the House
will refuse to concede anything TO the
Sugar Trust and that il sugars are not
made absolutely free there will be but a
small uniform duty placed upon sugar OF
all grades, with nothing to the refiners'
trust.
Senator Murphy is pleased with the
changes made in the tariff bill on collars
and cuffs, as he has succeeded In securing
an increase of 10 per cent. over the rate
in the subcommittee bill, as he did In that
bill over the Wilson bill, thus bringing the
duty from IS per cent. ad valorem To 30 per
