In the study of anthropology tt is not
the scientist alone, but q general public,
that is inclined to consider that man has
special physical law unto himself, and a
shock comes "by an attempt to draw
odious parallels between him and the low
er animals" We get to be then what Mr..
Haycraft calls too "anthropocentric. Sup
pose we take the case Of two dogs of differ
ent breeds. Knowing nothing of their pc
culiar traits, we are to try to judge their
qualities by studying their heads. In one
there is powerful jaw and not much
room for brains. Nature has built that dog
for fight. There has not been left space
enough above the eyes for more than an
average intelligence. In the other dog the
conditions are reversed. The jaws arc not
strongly accentuated. The dome of the
head is higher.
If we do rot want fighting dog, we
select the latter animal. When, then, the
anthropologist examines the skulls of pre-
historic men, he gauges anthropologically
with rule and compass these head cases,
and he makes his guesses just as q NOM
Der Of the kennel club might with certain
novel breeds of dogs. If the brain pan is
big, the anthropologist says this head be-
longed to "a large Drained, small jawed
man." If the brain pan is small, he re-
verses his order Of words and says, "This
skull is of the small Drained, large jawed
variety, and the first skull was the proper

large jawed variety. New York Times

CONQUEST OF THE NORTHWEST.
I Yves Acquired From the British BY
Force of Arms.

II 1876, when Independence was de-
elarcd, the Unite'l States included only
the II original states on the seaboard.
With tho exception Of a few hunters,
there were no white men west Of the
Allegheny mountains, and there was
rot even an American hunter in the
great country out Of which we have
since made the states of Illinois, Indi-
ana. Ohio, Michigan and Wisconsin. All
this region north of the Ohio river then
formed part of the province of Quebec.
It was wilderness Of forests and
prairies, teeriiag witkS.yame and inhab-
tied by many warlike tribes of Indians
Hero and there through it were dot
ted quaint little towns of French creoles.
the most important being Detroit, Vim
cennes, ON the Wabash, and Kaskaskia
and Kahokia, on the Illinois These
French villages were ruled by British
officers commanding small bodies Of reg
ular soldiers or Tory rangers and creole
partisans The towns were completely
in the power of the British government
None of the American states had actual
possession of foot of property in tho
Northwestern territory.
The northwest was acquired at the
time of the Revolution only by armed
conquest, and if it had not been so ac-
quired it would have remained part of
the British Dominion of Canada
The man to whom this conquest was
due was famous backwoods leader, o
mighty hunter, noted Indian fighter
George Rogers Clark. He was a very
strong man, with light hair and blue
eyes, of good Virginian family, who,
early in his youth, embarked on the ad-
venturous career of a backwoods survey
or. exactly as Washington and SO many
other young Virginians of spirit did at
that period. He travelled out to Ken
tucky soon after it was opened up by
Boone and lived there for q year, either
at the stations or camping by himself in
the woods, surveying, hunting and max
ing war against the Indians like any
other settler But all the time his mind
was bent on vaster schemes than were
dreamed of by the men around him. He
had his spies out in the Northwestern
territory and became convinced that
with small force of resolute back
woodsmen he could conquer it for the
United States When he went back to
Virginia, Governor Patrick Henry en-
tered heartily into Clark's schemes and
gave him authority to fit out force for
his purpose Theodore Roosevelt in st.

WEAVING u Foal.

The weaving period is a critical one
with all kinds of animals. If a period
of stagnation in growth occurs it is
pretty certain to occur then. Hence,
in the foal. it is important. as with
other things, that he shall receive sufti-
cient care and attention at such.a time
to keep him growing right on. 1t is
fortunate when the foal is weaned
that lie has been already trained to
lead with the halter. 1t is also FORUM
ate when he has companioDsh!p, for
then he will not chafe and fret, as he
otherwise would when separated from
the dam. If placed IN a box stall, the
walls should be SO high that by IA pos
silility can the colt get over them.
Whether the weaving should be sud
den or gradual will depend upon cir
cumstances. If the colt is weaned
while yet young. the weaving should
be gradual; hut II the colt is we'll adj
vaDced and has learned to eat other
food well, the weaving should be alb.
rupt, That is the foal should he taken
away and kept away from the mare
until the latter has dried up. Good
hay and q grain supplement should
then be given to the foal. The grain
ration may re composed Of ground or
whole oats ard bran. two parts ground
oats and II part bran. A little oil
meal may also he beneficial. The
amount to feed will depend somewhat
on the size and age Of the foal; but In
a few days an ordinary foal can turn
to good account at least three quarts
Of the mixture. and this may be- profit
ably increased as time goes on. OF
course, every care should be taken to
supply water plentifully.-North vest

Russians and Their Emperor Are
Sal to Like Americana.
The United States consul general at
st. Petersburgh, John Karel, who is
in Washington, was a banker and
successful lawyer in Chicago before
he entered the service of the govern
ment, being first sent as consul to
Prague under the Cleveland admins
tration. He is about 45 years old,
has extremely dark hair and eyes,
and, though a native of Bohemia, is
a thorough American in style and
sentiment. In conversation with q
reporter Mr.. Karel said:
IF the United States has II gen.
uine friend among the powers on the
other side it is Russo. The zar and
his subjects are disposed toward us
in the kindcst way. and an American
will get better treatment in Russia
than a citizen of any other govern
ment. 1 have had practical expert
nee of this. 1t is a common thing,
the result of not knowing their laws,
that an American travelling in Russia
will neglect to have his passports
vised. that is, approved by a Russia
consul. AS the laws are very strict,
this neglect is apt to get the traveller
into trouble and cause his annoyance
and detention by the authorities. On
numerous occasions l have seen these
regulations waived in favor of a eiti-
zen Of the United States. 1t would
not be done in favor of a subject of
any European nationality. This is
an indication Of the general respect
and good will borne by them for this
republic. Post.
