MAY BE THE MISSING LINK.

That Mysterious and Useless Organ OF
Man, the Vermiform Appendix.
A distinguished paleontologist claims
to have discovered facts serving to show
that tho vermiform appendix, that mys-
teriously useless organ that has annoyed
the human family NO much Of late
years. IL no more nor less than the rudi-
mentary remnant of the gizzard with
which he believes tho monstrous pro-
genitors of man of the tertiary period
of tho earth existence were supplied.
Some of these gigantic creatures. lizards
in form, birds in kind, animals In some
functions, are believed to have devel-
oped by the gradual stages described by
tho supporters Of the theory of evolu-
ton into the semblanoe of u human be-
ing.
II the bird form DO the original of the
human race, il is reasonable TO believe
that 1t may have been supplied with q
gizzard, which in tho bird Of modern
time possesses definite and important
function in the digestion Of tho food.
The bird having no teeth the food II In
many cases swallowed whole. Some
birds can crush tho food with their
beaks, but normally the digestion IL
permitted largely through the agency Of
the gizzard, where the food IL ground
into fine particles. The interior coating
of this organ is rough and muscular.
Many birds swallow, AZ far IA tho giz-
zard, small pebbles that aid the process
Of attrition. Thus II the latest theory
be correct u curious paradox il present
cd. Whereas In the beginning, az now,
the gizzard performed its functions
most satisfactorily when supplied with
indigestible substances its rudiment
that now remains In the human struo-
ture becomes center OF dangerous con-
ditiOns as soon AZ any foreign substance,
and especially any hard matter, IL do
posted in it.
One of the marvels of anatomy for
some years has been this strange sac in
the upper intestines, apparently with
out the least function In the digestive
system and capable OF being removed
without affecting the health OF tho pa
tent save to favorable degree Re
searches have revealed many TRACES Of
such rudiments In the human system.
Darwin's studies brought to light many
resemblances between man and tho
lower orders. 1t may now be that the
despised vermiform appendix will be-
exploited as tho real missing link"
binding man to the past ages, when life
assumed many forms that are today UNI
known. Washington Star.

TRAINING A WARHORSE.
How He Ia Taught TO Stand the Blass
and Thunder of hattie.

How He IL Taught to Stand the BIaas
and Thunder Of Hattie.
A warhorse Ia broken to DO steady
under fire by tying ropes to his legs.
While the animal il down ON the ground
the officer takes pistol and fires ID
close to his ear. Then In rapid order he
fires the weapon over his back. under
his neck, between his legs, anywhere
that an opening presents itself during
tho horses futile struggles. Not until
no sinks back exhausted, all a-tremble
and showing the whites Of his eyes, does
the pistol practice cease.
After two or three lessons of this kind
it is considered safe to mount him with
bride furnished with u curb bit Up
to this time tho horse has never felt
curb Tho light snaffie IL still retained,
and the curb bride Is only given gen.
tle pressure at first just enough to let
him know that 1t IL there. Gradually
tho strength Of the pull Is increased,
taught to stand fire from his riders pis-
toll or oarbine.
In carbine practice the horse must be
thoroughly broken, as both hands are
required in using this weapon, whereas
with the pistol the rider may retain the
bride with ono hand.
Then comes saber practice and that
IL another trial to tho horse. Again In
no thrown TO the ground, and he proba.
bly, can't understand why no should
have to suffer this indignity all over
again, for no has learned that lesson
very we'll. But when the bright blade
of the saber. with quick thrusts fash
ing before his eyes and cutting the air
in close proximity to his ears, appears
to him no is again terror stricken.
But the lesson no has learned from
the smell OF gunpowdor stands him in
good stead, and he soon gets over his
fear. And even with man on his back
and another mounted upon seasoned
horse coming at him with saber raised
in tho air or slashing left and right he
knows that it il all part Of his educa
ton and something TO be expected. So
no stands his ground or oavorts about
the other horse while tho two troopers

Not In Richmond, but In Charlotte,

Every now and then we SEQ In some

his grave, with the mistaken idea that
it is in that city, where much Of his
public career was passed. Few people

he formerly lived. Over 1t IL marble

Tho estate lies on Staunton river, 81
miles from the town Of Lynchburg near
the border line which separates Char
lotte and Campbell counties. 1t derived
its name of Red Hill from the peculiar
color of the soil in that vicinity. When
Patrick Henry bought the place, II com

It IL not generally known that sealed
