THE CHICAGO DEMOCRATS.

Their Local Fight May Involve the
National Committee.
Chicago, July 19-The fight between
the regular Democratic organization of
Cook county and the state of Illinois,
represented by Mayor Harrison and
National Committeeman Gahan on the
one side, and the Altgeld wing of De-
mocracy, which supported Ex-Governor
Altgeld as an Independent candidate
for mayor at the last election, on the
other, has reached an acute stage and
thre"tens to involve the national com
mlttee, in spite of the strenuous at
tempts being made to keep local quar-
rels out of the proceedings of next
Thursdays meeting of the national
committee in this city Hon. Thomas
Gahan, national committeeman from
Illinois, in an open letter to the leaders
of the Altgeld element of the party,
explains his reasons for declining to
attend the Auditorium meeting of
Thursday night, and by indirection ap-
peals to his colleagues of the national
committee to refrain from attending
the Altgeld meeting. Interest is added
to the occasion by the report of Gov
ernor Altgeld's friends that William
j. Bryan some days ago accepted an
invitation to address the meeting.

termed the great-grandfather of mankind.
Tarsier may best be described as having
a face like an owl aud body limbs and
tail like those of a monkey. His sitting
hight is about that of the squirrel AS
his enormous optics would lead one to
suppose, he cuts capers in the night and
sleeps in the daytime, concealed usually
in abandoned clearings, where new growth
has sprung up to hight of twenty feet
or more. Very often he sleeps in a stand
ing posture, grasping the lower stem of
a small tree with his long and slender fin
gers and toes. During his nightly wan
derings he utters a squeak like that of
a monkey. During the day the pupils OF
his eyes contract to fine lines, but after
dark expand until they fill most of the
irlses. From his habit Of feeding only upon
insects, he has a strong bat-lke odor.
Queer Little Beasts.
John Whitehead, who has spent the last
three years studying the animals of the
Philippines, foreshadows the probable be-

call the little creature "magou." "In Sa-
