PHYSICAL DEVELoPM MENT.
DR.. Boas' Interesting Lecture Before tn
Anthropological Society.


Anthropological Society.
The lecture hall of the National Museum
was crowded as usual yesterday afternoon
to listen to the popular weekly lectures
held under the auspices of the Anthropo-
logical Society of washington. DR.. Franz
Boas delivered a highly instructive and
entertaining lecture on Humans growth"
In opening his remarks he stated that we
may easily recognize four distinct types of
man, and gave an interesting description
of their customs, manner OF abode, and
habitation in different lands.
"We may distinguish in a general way"
he said, ''the fair people of Northern
Europe and the dark people of Central and
Southern Europe. 1t appears that not
withstanding all changes of language and
culture, the fair form has always pre-
vailed in Northern Europe, While the
dark form has always occupied the southern
region, and the oldest remains found IN
Europe do not represent types different in
any way from those found up to this time
on the same continent.
Speaking of the influence OF environment
upon the development of the human body,
DR.. Boas says What ! desire to describe
is the effect of civilization upon the form Of
mtive man and of civilized man differ in
the same manner that distinguishes wild
and domesticated animals OF the same
species. Primitive man has more slender
bones, of lesser volume, with smooth sur
face; muscular attachments are sharply
marked and we'll defined, but not as
manifest as that of the civilized man. The
ends of the lay bones are not as well de-
veloped as in the civilized man, but firmer.
Another phenomenon that seems TO
throw light upon the question of Euro
peans, is the tall stature of the land
owning ancestry. 1t has been shown that
first born children exceed all later born
children in physical development, although
at time of birth the reverse is the case.
When we remember that the land-owDing
class in Europe consists largely of first
born children, the selection having been
continued through long generations, it
becomes very likely that this accounts for
their high stature and that the feature has
become hereitary.''

RUNAMAYs SENT HOME.

Pair of Coiored Lads Who Were Brought
Here Through False Preteuses."
Two badly frightened colored boys en-
tered the office of Sanitary Officer
Frank at police headquarters yesterday
afternoon and begged to be sent back to
their homes in Baltimore. The boys gave
their names as Henry Butler and George
Brown.
How did YOU get to Washington" de-
manded Mr.. Frank
by false ,pretenses,'' was the astonish-
ing reply.
The lads then explained that they had
been induced to leave their homes by a
colOred man named Whitney, who prom
ised to furnish them home here
1T looks TO me like a case OF false
expenses, said the sanitary officer But
he gave them railroad tickets and n lecture
on running away from home they Will not
forget for some time to come.

THIRD RACE LOOKED QUEER
Doc Birch, Heavily Backed Favor
ite, Loses to Belwo0d.
Talent Had the Tip That the Latter Was
''Dead''-0nly Fair Racing at
Alexander Island.

The cold, stormy weather OF yesterday
did not frghten the racing people little
bit, the crowd that went ''across the river
being quite as large as that of Friday.
They stood out on the lawn ankle deep
in mud and shivered during the races, but
kept pretty well under cover between times.
Owing to the condition of the track, which
was a veritable sea of mud, a great deal
of scratching was indulged in, reducing
the originally good card to only fairly
| well-filled one.
a big upset occurred in the third race, and
when it was over the talent raised a howl
that they had been "thrown down" On
form Doc Birch should have had an easy
thing of it, And so the talent thought, for
getting down on him to a man, they forced
his price from even money down to TO
They were all the more confident owing
| to the report that Belwood wasa dead 'un, !"
he going begging at tens and twelves
! To a good start Son Malheur showed
| the way down the back stretch by fully
three lengths. Coming around the far turn
he was done and chucked up TO Belwood
and Doc. Birch, who came through neck
and. neck The former had the foot OF
Birch, and in hard drive Morris landed
the stiff" under the wire, full half
| length to the good.
Matte Chun opened favorite in the first
race at even money, but rapidly receded
to threes, while Despair, with Ham up, was
hammered down and closed favorite, at 8
| to 3. Chun beat the flag slightly, but
Despair quickly took command and was
never headed, winning by length and
| half from Little Bravo, who ran a game
race under the whip the whole journey.
Another long shot materialiZed in Cana

write your own ticket" Odds The bulk
| of the money went in on Syde and German,
! but the distance was little too much for
| the former, who was firing rapidly at the
| finish Syde and Caroyen ran Tapped into
| the stretch, where Murphy drew out and
was apparently winning easily, when the
| son of Pontiac, who had been running in the
ruck, came up with rush and won cleverly
| by half lie 9Th. Caroven was coming
strong, and III a few more jumps would
have beaten Syde out for the place.
The fourth was not much of betting
affair, as 1t was as good as conceded to
West Side. although a few of the smart
ones took a flyer on His Grace. The race
itself was of the professional order, West
Side gallopinG in a winner by three lengths,
His Grace fifteen to the good OF Bon
Voyage, who beat j I'M Mclaughlin neck.
Electric Light ran away all the way
| through the chute just before the last race
which killed any chance he might have
! had Tammany Hall came out OF the chute
| a length and a half to the good OF Forest.
Murphy was only waiting, however, and,
giving the latter his head fuTlong from
the wire, won easily By length.

RECORDER TAYLoR's STATUS.
Nothing Can BE Learned at the White
House Concerning It.

There is no prospect at the White House
Of an early deliverance on the subject of
the retention or removal of Recorder of
Deeds Taylor
The developments in the criminal case in
which the recorder is interested, now in
progress, have led a good many people to
ask, what is the President going TO do
about il? That question was also asked
Private Secretary Thurber at the White
House yesterday. He said that there was
nothing new in the case In fact, there
is no news in anything, the President is
so busy with the bills from Congress. -
1t is quite likely that the case will not be
taken up until after the President returns
from his intended duck-hunt on the Violet
The information was also given by Secre-
tary Thurber that no action had been taken
in the Manogue case

George LIE Cointe, the meanest buncO sharp
and trickster, with females as his victims,
that ever figured in the police annals Of the
District, was held for the grand jury in
81 900 bonds by Judge Miller yesterday.
The charge against him was larceny from
the person of young woman, who IS vari-
ously known as Mrs. Henry Bunting, Of
New York; Mrs. Harris, Dolly Ballard,
and Mrs. Murphy. 1t is alleged that while
spending the night in the woman's house,

relieved her of diamond earrings, ring, and

To the readers of THE T1MEg-We wish to
call your attention to the Grand Majestic
Steel Range exhibit now going on at 1905
Pennsylvania avenue This range is without
doubt the greatest improvement ever made
in cooking, as 1t is operated so quickly, and
at the same time it saves you nearly half the
fuel, an item that will alone save the price
of the range in two years. This wonderful
range heats forty gallons of water in forty
minutes, with less fuel than by any known
process. We bake quicker and with less
fuel; we roast quicker and better and with
less fuel than you ever saw DONE The price
is very low. The terms during this exhibit
are most liberal and beyond the regular.
You cannot afford to use the old stove, it
costs too much for fuel and repairs. The
fire box in the Majestic is warranted for five
years. See the exhibit ths~coming week al

APPEAL FROM YOUNG DEMO-
Gratis.

The young mems Democratic Asso-
citation of Baltimore city, having a
membership of 5000 has issued the
following public letter:
The Young Men control the destiny
of this State and Nation, and to you
we appeal, First, to carefully canvass
the political situation before you eX-
ercise your suffrage, Second, to vote
your honest convictions, Third, to do
all in your power to make this cam
paign clean, clear-cut fight and the
coming election true reflection of
the sentiment of the people.
Shall the Democratic party continue
to enact and execute our Laws, or
shall the Republican party be allowed
TO assume control of the State
The nominees of the Democratic
and Republican parties are all honor
able men and good citizens, but II
stream cannot rise above its source,
and these candidates as our Public
Servants. if elected, cannot be better
than their Party.
1. The Republican Party believes
in and formerly maintained Federal
Supervision and control of elections.
2. In 1876 it stole from the people of
this nation the most honored position
we can bestow ON any man, when it
made Rutherford B. Hayes president
of these United States, instead of that
honored and beloved statesman,
Samuel J. Tilden, who was the choice
of the people.
B. 1t endeavored to secure the pas
sage and adoption of that Ubiquitous
law known as the force bill.
We are now engaged in a political
battle which will decide Maryland's
place in the national contest of 1896.
On the fifth Of November the Dem
cratic hosts OF this State will achieve
grand and glorious victory.
Young Men, will you share the vic:
tory? Organize, stand firm, talk and
reason with your friends. The battle
may be hot, but the victory shall be

THE question which in this State
canvass comes more closely home to
our people and which engages their
attention more than ever is that of re-
assessment. Upon this subject I am
in hearty sympathy with the declara-
ton of our platform, and the repro
duction of that declaration in your
letter. A complete and thorough re-
assessment is now imperatively de-
manded, and should be provided for
without fail by our next Legislature. " :
Publicly declaring now my deliberate
belief that the passage of a law for a
general and through assessment of the
entire taxable property of all the peo-
pie of the State should not any longer
be postponed, wish to be understood
as distinctly announcing, that, should
/ be elected Governor, shall prompt
ly sign such bill. and also actively
interest myself as far as may be pro-
per in securing its passage by the Leg
islature From John E. Hurst's let
Ter of acceptance.
