was retreating, and the arches OF the
eyebrows so strongly developed that
they formed ridge over the nose, which
consequently sprang from deep in
dentation under this ridge and project
ed at a. sharp angle from the face. The
eye sockets We're rather elongated, being
more broad than high, Lastly--and this
was the most remarkable feature of all
the lower jaw projected beyond the
upper one.
The skull was now compared with the
two portraits of Bach preserved at Leip-
sic. These portraits are at first sight
rather dissimilar, but on being exam
ined closely We're found to have in COM
mon precisely those structural features
which We're so strongly marked in the
skull. A collateral piece of evidence
was the fact that a portrait of one of
Bach's grandsons, who was known to
have closely r>s4mhled him. was cln-
spicuous for the same slanting line of
forehead noticeable on the skull.
1t seemed, therefore, only reasonable
to conclude that the remains which had
been discovered there Were indeed those
of Bach; but the savans and antiquar-
Jams engaged in the investigation We're
not quite satisfied. They were anxious
to obtain a still more decisive test, and
it was while meditating on this problem
that Professor His hit upon the remark
able discovery referred to.
He conceived the idea OF reproducing
in plaster over cast of the skull fea-
lures carefully calculated from his
knowledge of the human anatomy.
! This idea he communicated to Herr
Seffner, famous German sculptor, who
/ at once undertook the task, and in two
days produced bust which bore a very
striking resemblance to the portraits of
Bach.
Still the critics were not content.
Some Of them asserted that a clever
sculptor could form any face ne pleased
over any skull that had no gross de-
formities; and 10 prove their case they
requested Herr Seffner to make a bust
of Handel over the skull Of Bach The
sculptor succeeded i'll producing a per-
feet external likeness, but internally, to
quote the words used by writer on
the subject, the bust was IAN anatomi-
cal lie" The artist had been obliged
to cover the forehead with a thick layer
of plaster, and to leave the chin bone
(where in life the flesh is thickest on the
human face) almost bare. Obviously a
| likeness produced in such a fashion was
a mere monstrosity.
The professor and the sculptor. en-
couraged by this result, set about their
task once more. They were obliged to
take up the subject practically from the
beginning.
The possibility of Identifying skulls
had indeed been much discussed in Ger
many during the last twenty years.
Thus in 1881 Professor Kupffer had
studied the skull of Kant; in 1888 Pro-
fessor Welcker the pretended skull of
Schiller; and more recently skull
found at Menidi, believed to be that of

CHINESE DOMESTIC TROUBLE.

Ike city recorder had an interesting
charge today--a Cninawognan around
whose personality there is waged a
fierce struggle for possession. She ori-
giEally lived in San Francisco and was
married to "a Chin&maM there, upon
payment of s40O to her father Later she
was stolen by another Chinaman, with
whom she has lived until today The
two husbands met this morning in The
Dalles and husbead No. L had Ne. 2
and wife arrested. Dhe wife was re-
bjoiced to find her fret husband, and
will undoubtedly live with him if y0ssi-
BILE, as her affections are with him
This afternoon the recorder gave the
wife the privilege of selecting the one
she most desired and she chose the first.
There may be troablein Chinatowa over
the event, but the facts are in no shape
for adjustment at present. The China
woman was kept apart from both men
until the hour for judgment arrived, and
not understanding e word of English
was very much frightened on Gndipg
herself shut up alone.

Mrs. Stubling had snany visitors last
evening to see the +Ifewer of the gods"
1t was found to be lsrge, white flower
of very delicate appearance and with g
strange but pleasant perfume. The
flower was as curious as the plant which
bore it. This was a cactus plant, an
African variety. It had no foliage, but
is rope-like vine, covered with barbs.
1t will have other flowers at various
times throughout the year. The one
which opened last evening closed late
this morning and is dead. There will be
another in few days judging from the
bud. It takes a bud nearly year to
mature. The plant is very curious
ance, and the buds look something like
serpent's head. The flowers, how
ever, have rare and surprising beauty.
