Prehistoric Man n CnnnibnI.

What was the favorite food of pre-
historic man? According to DR.. Matieg-
ka of Prague, it was his brother. In a
learned article in the miscellany of the
Anthropological society of Vienna he
proves from an examination CT some
prehistoric remains at Knovizc, in Bo-
hemia, that the people who buried them
were cannibals, not from need, but from
choice, and that they preferred the flesh
of their own relatives, especially if
young and tender, to that of their enc
miles, He also contends, and most an
thropologists seem to agree with him,
that the eating of human flesh was in
prehistoric times spread all over Europe,
the practice being first induced by
scarcity of other food, next by prefer
ence, and was finally persisted in for
religious, or rather ceremonial, reasons.
The flesh was in every case prepared by
cooking, sometimes with the juice Of
oranges and lemons. -Pall Mall Gazette

RAILROAD SIGNAL LIGHTS.
Proposed Adoption of the English
System ON American Roads.

Proposed Adoption of the English
System ON American Roads.
Among American railroad men there
has Geen a controversy extending over
many years as to the desirability of &C
cepting the English system of night
signals in place of the American. At
present white light displayed along
the line Of an American railroad signi-
fes safety, all well, while red light
signifies danger, look out, and a
green light caution, go Slow These
are the esta blished signals, the red be-
ing the most conspicuous, and therefore
the best adapted for the purpose of Sc
curing immediate attention. On Eng
lish roads the red light is in use in
cases of danger, but instead of white
light for safety a green light is used.
and instead of a green light for caution
yellow light is used, the three English
railroad colors being red, green and yell
low instead of red, white and green,
used for like purposes among American
railroad men.
The proposed change from the exist
ing American to the current English
system has been discussed, recommend
ed, opposed and experimental upon for
a number of years, with the result of
an apparent agreement among railroad
men that white is not suitable color
for a signal. 1t is indistinct and is sub
ject to two other objectiCns-its sim
ilarity to ordinary lights used for illumi-
nation and the fact that railroad Ian
tern, If broken, gives out a white light.
If, therefore, as is argued, red lantern
should be broken on one side and the
glass should fall out, it would emit
white light which would indicate safety
to the engineer, whereas the real sig
nificance of the signal was danger-the
exact contrary. Recently the New
York, New Haven and Hartford rail
road has made change in its night
signals in accordance with the English
system, and it is gradually putting it
into operation on the various divisions
of the road The management of the
New Haven, which is one of the great
est passenger carrying systems in the
world, has been making a study of the
question of signals and has adopted this
new system after long series of expert
ments by experts. A green light is easier
seen at night than white one, and
yellow shows very we'll in the dark and
is easily distinguishable along the road.
Moreover, since the adoption of the
modern method of electric lighting on
passenger cars white is the general
color for such interior illumination, an
additional reason why it should be dis
carded for signal purposes. The objec
ton to the change, however, comes
from the fact that railroad men from
long usage have become accustomed to
the present American system and that
some confusion might perhaps result
from the attempt to substitute one light
for another without general knowledge
of the change. New York Sun.

Manager Irwin, of the Washington club.
and Manager Hanlon. of the Brooklyn
team, yesterday completed deal whereby
Catcher Jim MCGUIRE goes to Brooklyn
and First Bsseman Dan McGann and
Catcher Alex. Smith become members
OF the local team. For some time past
Hanlon has been looking with longing
eyes in McGuire's direction, but until yes
terday Messrs. Irwin and Wagner refused
to consider any proposition which meant
"OId Reliable's" departure from this city.
For nine years MCGUIRE has been the
mainstay of the Senators behind the bat
and his services were thought indispensa-
BILE until Kittridge was signed by Manager
Irwin.
n more popular ball player than Nc
CURE never wore a Washington uniform
He was always willing and anxious to
work, and he was at his best when kept
constantly in the game. He came to this
city in 1881, when Washington was a mem
Der OF the old American Association, and
here he has remained through the chang
ing years of baseball. BY his reliable
work, steady habits, and accommodating
disposition he has been always a favor
ite with the public, his associates on the
team, and his employers. IN 1896 he caught
13e consecutive games, q record that has
never been equaled. His departure from
this city marks the passing OF the last
of the old guard. The fans regret TO see
him go, and their wishes go with him.
First Baseman McGann, who figured in
the Doyle deal before the beginning
OF last season, comes back to Washington
in exchange for Mcclure. Last year was
McGann's first season in the major league,
yet he has already made national rep
utation. He is a hard hitter. fast fielder,
and an excellent base runner. His record
with the Baltimore club last season was
Q splendid one. He played in las games,
made 81 runs, reached first base 159 times,
made sacrifice hits, stole "a bases, and
had a batting average OF .29s His fielding
record was also good one. In las games
he made l.40s put outs. and SO assists,
with an average OF 1854, standing fourth
IN the list of first basemen- He should
prove & good man for the locals.
Catcher Smith played IN IS games with
Brooklyn last season, and had a batting
average OF 260. He is an active young
player, energetic and ambitious, and will
prove a valuable acquisition to the team.
The game with Cincinnati. which was
scheduled for yesterday afternoon, was
postponed on account of the rain. This
afternoon the Colonels will be the oppon-
ents OF the Senators at National Park.
Mercer and Kittridge will be the battery
for the Senators. and McGann will cover
first base.

ARKwR1eHT,s BARBER DAYS.
Inventor of the Spinning Jenny Was
Once ..TonsorinI Arfist.v


(From the London Star.)
The development of the cotton trade
within the last century has placed Lam
cashire among the foremost counties in
England, and for this it has to thank
Richard Arkwright probably more than
any other inventor of spinning machinery.
He was born at Preston on December %,
1882, being the youngest OF thirteen chill
dren. After having received the merest
rudiments of an education he was appren-
ticed to a barber in his native town, and
at the age of twenty eight opened small
shop in Churchgate, Bolton, combining the
business of a peruke maker with haircut
ting and shaving.
This shop is still in existence, although
the front has been rebuilt within the last
few years. The interior. however, retains
its original condition, massive oak beams
crossing the ceilings and running through
the walls. The premises are still in the
occupation OF 'tonsorial artist" who is
sufficiently up to date TO have an electric
light at the end of his pole.
The leaden cistern used by Arkwright to
hold the water for shaving purposes is
now in the possession of Mr.. Shelton. Of
Birkdale, near Southport. This gentle
mans grandfather bought the business
from a barber of the name of Grune, who
had succeeded Arkwright when the in
ventor discovered that he could make
more money out OF his own head than he
could OFF the heads of other people. This
cistern is a most interesting example of
headwork. and evidently from the date
1888 on the front, was respectable age
when bought by Arkwright. In 1863 Ark
wright patented the spinning frame which
laid the foundation of our vast factory
system and of his fortune. He was ap-
pointed high sheriff of Derbyshire, and re-
ceived the honor of knighthood at the
hands of George III on the occasion OF
presenting an address of congratulation to
His Majesty on his escape from the at
tempt on his life by Margaret Nicholson.
He died at Cromford in 1892, in his six
tieth year, one of the wealthiest com
moners in England.
