THE WEATHER PERMITTING

Washington, March 16.-The sport
ing fraternity in Carson City will have
clear and sunshing weather tomorrow,
according to forecast made tonight
by Major Dunwoody, the official in
charge of the government weather bu-
reau In this city. So confident Is the
major that there will be sunshine in
Carson that he said tonight the odds
were 30 to l in its favor. This will
raise the spirits of the photographers,
who have been fearful lest the day
should be cloudy and thus make diff
cult the reproduction of the fight.
There was a light snow or rain to-
day at Carson. said the major, but II
probably will be clear tonight and to-
morrow the weather will be fair with
the temperature moderate. The temper
ature tonight is IS at Winnemucca,
New. 200 miles northeast of Carson
City; 5s at Red Bluff. Cal. and 80 at
San Francisco. and the prediction at
the bureau is that the range at Carson
City tomorrow will be somewhere be-
tween 40 and 20 degrees. Light. fresh
winds will prevail. but as the little
fighting center is well protected by
mountains. these will not be felt to an
unfavorable degree. Altogether the
prospects seem fair that Carson to-
morrow is to have a duplicate Of the
charming midwinter day which pre-
vailed in Washington when President
Mckinley was inaugurated.

finds much To criticise and condemn in

that they are most important spots for

be recalled In this connection that the in.
spection of the bakeshops in this city by
the Ladies' Health Protective association
brought to light many dangerous oondi
tions in these places. They are radiating
centers in every neighborhood where they
exist, and every part of them should be as

MAN AND THE APE.
Or. Spencer Trotter illustrates Points OF
Resemblance and Dissimilarity.

Resemblance and Dissmilarity.
I,r Spencer Trotter of Swarthmore col
lege delivered AL illustrated lecture at the
Academy of Natural Sciences on animal
characteristics of Man..
"ln his brain structure" said DIR. Trot-
ter, 'man is evidently closely allied with
the ape, and the difference between man
and any of the higher apes in this respect
is not so great as that which exists be-
tween the apes and monkeys, taken as O
whole, and the other mammalian orders.
And as Huxley says, The difference In
weight Of brain between the highest and
lowest man is far greater, both relatively
and absolutely, than between the lowest
man and highest ape
Speaking of heredity, DR.. Trotter said
IL was well known fact that the young
Of all animals tend TO revert to the ances-
trail type. "Thus, said he. Sin group of
closely allied species of birds-where some
of the species are solidly colored and some
have mottled pluInage and spotted breasts
the young Of the solidly colored species
are often conspicuously mottled and spot
ted. This is notably the case with the
thrushes, especially in the case of our rob-
in. So among mammals the young OF
many species exhibit markings quite diff
ferent from their parents. Lion cubs, for
example, show spots which ally them to
the leopards and their kind.
1.-THE human infant presents many sim
ion features which, though shocking to
the fond parent, point nevertheless toward
common anthropoid ancestry. Among
the most remarkable Of these evanescent
characteristics are the plantar burrows or
creases on the sole of the foot In newborn
babies, which, as DR.. Louis Robinson has
pointed out, present a striking similarity
to the creases on the foot of the ape. DR..
Robinson has also shown that not only the
plantar furrow, but also the great mobility

ing prehensible foot. The disproporti0n.
ate strength of grip In the hand Of a young
baby and the tendency which it shows to
cling to things further support the theory
of an arboreal life on the part Of mans
archaic ancestor.
"The young ape is quite human in the
relative features of the head and face,
while the adult degenerates toward a more
bestial character. At the same time the
adult man approaches more toward a low
er type in certain features, notably In the
greater development of the brows and IA
cial elements, and his senile characters are
decidedly simian."
In conclusion, DIR. Trotter said that,
while his ancestors may have had advan-
tages in protection from the weather by a
hairy covering and a more keen sense of
hearing and smell, man had unquestioned
advantages in the development of his men.

A VARIETY GAME.


Almost all tho Minor Leagues Represented
In q Game at Providence.
greater variety Of baseball than that
presented at Adelaide Park yesterday,
would be hard to find. The occasion of
this remarkable exhibition was the decision
of Manager Murray to give his Grays a
practice game, and so two teams were
made up as follows: Murray's nine COM
prised pitchers Rudderbam, Friel and
Egan, with McAuley and Coogan alternat-
ing at third base and behind the bat,
Drauby on first base, Weigand at second
Cooney at short, Egan and Frel playing in
left field when not pitching. Murray in
centre field and Henry Manning in right
field.
The Yannigaps were made up as follows
Pitchers, Hodson, Braun and jack Horner
Gene O'Connor, the colt from Rockland,
and Mulholland, a local player, behind the
bat, Braun and O'Connor alternating at
frst base, Campbell of Olneyville at Sec
ond base, Cunningham of the Pawtucket
polo team as short stop. Bone, who is to
play with Jerry Denny's Derby team, at
third base, Tom Lovett in left field, Green
of Providence, who Is to play with John
Twins Taunton team, in centre field, and
Horner alternating with an amateur in
right field.
"Bill" Kirby acted as umpire, and had
many troubles of his own, for both sides
roasted him numerically when his deci-
sions did not suit them. The result of the
game was victory for the Murray nine,
hands down, the score being ~ to 2 in
their favor.
The result of the game was satisfactory
to Manager Murray, and his men showed
up to good advantage. The men on the
other side were no slouches, and gave
more of hustle to their opponents than
the score indicates. Manning, who by
the way was the former polo referee played
snappy game, and displayed his skill as
ball player TO good advantage.
