Homes of an Unknown Creature
Found in Java.
Some excitement. it is said. has been
aroused in the scientific world by an
alleged discovery of the missing Link"
between the monkey and the man. NJ.
Dubois of the Brussels Museum has re-
ceived the top of a skull and Il ''fe-
mur of an anthropoid character from
collector in Java and, after eXamln-
ing them has come to the conclusion
that they are the Uranium and thigh
bone of some creature between the hui
man and the simian species.
Naturalists are at present suspending
judgment on the point. They are not
of course. in a position to deny abso-
lEtely that NJ. Dubois correspondent
has discovered the remains of the man.
monkey or monkey-man but they can
and do remark that Java is very
likely locality in which to find new
species of monkey" Neither the be-
levers, nor the skeptics, however,
seem to doubt for a moment. that the
discovery. if genuine, should be wei
come. This appears to be assumed
without question in all discussions on
the subject as an assumption of the
most disputable kind. One can, un-
derstand its prevalence at an earlier
day. In the first enthusiasm of man
kind over the triumphant establishment
of Darwinsm it was natural enough;
it was. indeed, only consistent with
tilial piety to prosecute an active
search for cur lost ancestor. Every
body III those days was very properly
eager to discover him. He was a uni
versal topic both of oral and of liter
airy discussion We applied to one an
other at every dinner table for help
in the inquiry. and the press, as it is
often requested tC do in other cases
of disappearance. took notice of the
applications There is abundant evil
dence in the literature Of from twenty
to thirty years ago of the keen interest
which was taken by the civilized world
in general in the hunt for the missing
link" In scientific circles. no doubt,
the same curiosity still prevails, but it
has now quite ceased TO animate the
popular mind. and if Nj. Dubois and
his fellow naturalists think to revive
it. we must tell them plainly that they
are mistaken.
The unscientifc public have long
since recovered their composure They
have had time to get over the intellec-
tual intoyication produced by their
first Graughts of Darwinian doctrine.
and imaginatiyely speaking, to take
a good look at the object of their
search. Having by this means formed
a clear and definite conception of what
the missing link, would be like when
found they have then proceeded to
compare this conception With many
realities which have been multiplying
of late years in the midst, and the
result has made itself felt in a distinct
and growing conviction that the world
