LIZARDS WHICH WALK ERECT.
widely Separated Members of This
Curious Little Family Have
Same Habit.

When drawing attention about year
ago to the bipedal movements of GER
tain Australian lizards, notably the
comical little chlamydosaurus, or
"frilled lizard" whose photograph is
now familiar, Mr.. Saville-Kent referred
to an unconfirmed rumor that the
Mexican iguanoid lizard also possesses
the power of running on its hind legs,
being led to this by the correspondence
in general structure Of the creatures,
especially the abnormal length of the
hind limbs. He publishes letter from
gentleman living in the West Indies,
which shows that there also all the
lizards, from the large tree iguana, five
feet long, down to the tiniest mites
which scamper about among tie stones,
are accustomed to run erect on their
hind legs when hurried, says Nature.
The correspondent adds the interest
ing information that on the rocks about
the watershed OF the Guiana are old
drawings OF lizards running erect. Mr.
Saville- Kent points out that this pc
culiarity. which year ago was doubted
by many natnralists. but which has
now been shown to be common, de-
serves attention as pointing to bipedal
locomotion IN some remote ancestor.

INDIAN CREMATIONISTS.
Yuma Redskins That Know How to
Dispose of Their Dead
by Fire.

c. S. Hilton has just returned to Los
Angeles from Yuma, where he has been
in the employ of the Southern Pacific.
During his stay in Yuma there were
four deaths among the Indians on the
reservation. and following their usua,
custom the bodies were burned. Capt.
Hilton says that these Indians are nat
urai born" cTtamatiorists. ard nave the
business down to such science as to
discount all expensive modern crema-
tories in point of effectiveness, says the
Arizona Republican.
Their plan, the captain says, is a very
simple one. but il is thoroughly ef-
fectiye. When az Indian dies the whole
tribe have great pow-wow and details
are told of to keep up regular and
systematic wailing up to the time the
body is prepared for cremation. When
this time arrives shallow hole j.
scooped out in the sand. which is filled
with finely splintered wood, on which
the made corpse is laid. a cord or twG
of mesquite wood is then piled on tol
and about the body, the fire is applied
and the entire band of Indians gather
about the burning pile.
For few seconds there is a slight
smell of burning flesh. ard it is all over
The wood burns to ashes, and when il
goes out there is nothing resembling a
human frame left; only comparative
~ small pile of gray ashes. which are
scattered over TIE desert by the winds

CATS AS BIER TESTERS.
Malt Substitutes Tried on Patient Fee
lines to Determine Their In
furious Qualities.

In considering whether corn and
other substitutes used in the place of
malt in the manufacture of beer were
directly injurious TO health, Philip
SchidrcW;tz, appearing as an expert be-
fore the beer materials committee of
the house Of commons, said he hnl eX-
amined the effects of residues Of brew
ing sugars, and the rcsidues Of all malt
beers on cats. In some of the cases
where residucs Of brewing sugars were
administered to cats, either actual vom.
ting or retching was caused within
from half an hour to an hour, and in
two eases slight ataXia was produced.
Seven experiments were conducted
with the residues of all-malt beers, the
cats having been from IS to 90 hours
without food. The substances were in
troduced into the stomach in the after
neon of one day, and the next morning
all the cats were found to be quite nor
NAL, no symptoms of any kind having
been observed
The cat was chosen fer these expert
ments for two reasons, says the St.
Louis Republic. First, because il is
a carnivorous animal. and. secondly, be-
cause it is extremely resistant, the lat
ter characteristics rendering it prob.
able that the effects following the adj
mfhistraton of the residues were nom.
inal and not maximal. He thought that
further investigation in this direction
was necessary.

Harmony Prevails

| Politics are beginning to simmer and
while it will be some time before they
reach the boiling point, there are, never
theless, many who find much satisfaction
in talking along political lines and dag
nosing the condition of things from per
sonsl standponts.
The republican woods are full of can
didates for every position on the ticket
Where good many of them are going
to get off at" and be satisfied is also
worrying the party leaders. Each man
mentioned has his friends, and while
they have much to say about harmony"
it is dead certain that things are not
what they would have us believe in
their ranks.
The republicans are wiley endeavoring
to also SOW the seeds OF discord in the
ranks of the powers that be. So far they
have met with no success, and while
there are differences of opinion among
fusionists they are only on matters as TO
how they can best make their party a
power for the betterment of laws which
will give the whole people equal rights
instead of the favored few.
| The excellent showing made by the
administration in Yakima county the
past two years has met with the approval
of every honest tax payer, regardless of
party, and will be the basis upon which

ance however, did not prevent the trans
action of large amount OF important
business.
The city marshal reported the work he
had done on several sidewalks and res
olution was passed by the council declar.
ing it's intention to build a new sidewalk
on Second street from Coffin Bros. south.
Councilman Poole made a report rela-
tive to the band proposition and in his
capacity as councilman representing the
people, recommended that the instru-
ments be purchased. He explained that
as an individual he would not favor the
idea but in view of the large petition OF
business men and taxpayers he believed
the council should take favorable action.
Before putting the question Mayor Fech-
ter complimented him on making the
longest act speech of any councilman to
date. A resolution to appropriate $243
for band instruments was lost.
A spit ordinance, or rather an anti spit
ordinance, was read by the clerk. One
of the councilmen moved that 1t be
"knocked in the head" and his motion
prevailed.
A communication from the county
commissioners was read asking the coun-
Gil to assist them in equslizing assess.
ments within the city limits. Mayor
Fechter inquired whether the pay would
be the same as that of the commissions
ers. 'No pay, replied City Attorney
Rudkin, smilingly. every WE'LL" re-
sponded the mayor, 1--WE will delegate the
city attorney to represent the council"
This Was approved by the council who
enjoyed a laugh at Rudkin's expense.
Mr.. Rudkin had the last laugh, however,
when lie promised the members that he
would not overlook their property.
A petition was filed by number of
citizens Offering to subscribe to a street
sprnkling fund if the city will assume
the responsibility OF managing the matter.
1t was laid over.
The sexton reported eleven interments
during the month and collections amount
ing to $50. Justice Dam reported one
Indian convicted of being drunk and dis
orderly and the regular monthly convic-
tions OF prostitutes. The regular monthly
pay roll was audited and sundry bills
were passed and the meeting adjourned.
