mating gas.

The embryos OF wheat and barley
from Egyptian mummy cases have been
examined by E. Gain. He finds little
external change in the grains, no
change in the chemical composition or
the reserve substances. but radical
change in the chemical composition of
the embryo. whose dormant life must
have expired centuries ago.

One OF the most interesting regions to
the geolosist at present Is East Africa
In the great rift valley that has been
traced for an enormous distance across
this part of the globe are numerous
large fresh-water lakes, and It Is n sin
sular fact that only Tanganyiha-which
is hundreds of miles from the Indian
ocean-should contain prawns. jelly
fishes and marine mollusca. Mr.. ]. L.
S. Moore. who has been long at work
upon this problem, states that the alb
sence Of these animals from the great
Nyassa and other lakes to the north
and south, d!sproves the theory that
they are remnant of an older fresh
water fauna peculiar to the African
lakes. Such animals, however, appear
to have existed in the great circular
Congo basin. and It Is suggested that
at time when this basin was covered
by the sea, Tanganyiha was stocked
from the west. An extension OF the
lake for about eighty miles would con-
meet 1t with this basin.

The idea of combining many pictures
In one composite photograph to as toget
type face. was brought out nearly
twenty years ngo. by Francis Gallon,
F. r. s., who has now devised the OPP
posite plan Of analytical portruiture, in
which is sought to record what. is
individual in the expression by combin-
Ing different photographs Of the same
face. Two portraits. for example, may
show man with a normal expression
and when he Is smiling. On placing n
carefully made positive of one picture
on negative OF the other, details com-
mon to both are obliterated. and the
result Is that only the smile Is left.
When the process Is fully worked out
II Is expected to give psychologists and
artists an important means Of analysing
expression. From the portrait men,
toned 1t has been learned already that
the smile is an act involving the whole
face, and not, as we have been led to
believe, simply few muscles around
the mouth.

THE CITY OF HOUSTON
IN HURRICANES TEETH.

Wind Blowing Sixty Miles an Hour.
All Wires Down But One-Roofs as
Numerous on the Ground as on
Houses.
HOUSTON. Texas, September S.
Midnight.-The wind is blow
ing so miles an hour in Houston at
midnight and great damage is being
done to business houses and residences
throughout the city. The Associated
Press wire is the only one that is
working, all other telegraph and tele-
phone business being shut off. The
electric light plant has been closed
down as the wires became crossed with
telephones and several were shocked,
though none was seriously hurt. Sew
eral great brick and iron stacks have
been blown over and tin roofs are as
numerous on the ground as on houses.
The streets are deserted So far there
have been no casualties in Houston.
The storm has spread TO the interior
and there is great anxiety in this city.
People are offering extraordinary sums
to the telegraph companies to get mes
sages through to Galveston and 9TH
er points, but nothing can be done
for them

them. Mr.. Rose has requested the au-
men are taken as he inteds to string
them up by their legs with their heads
downward and shoot them to death.
Up to late hour nothing had been
heard from the pursuers and it is be-
lieved that the negroes are still at
large.
VIM. higs, a brother-in-law of the
Rev. Mr.. Rose, lives on a farm 2 miles
west of Godfrey. He was in the field
cutting corn yesterday when two neg
roes approached him and asked for
work. He told them he had no work
to offer them and they then demanded
that he give them all the money he
had. Riggs saw that he had no show
in a physical encounter with two such
visitors and ne put his hand in his
pocket to give them 60 cents, all the
money he had with him.
The instant he let go of his corn knife
his only weapon of defence, the negroes
knocked him down and went at him
with razors. After making several
horrible gashes with their weapons,
rendering Riggs practically helpless the
negroes proceeded TO draw lines in cir
Giles around his legs and to make fancy
cuts and figures. When they had tired
tim in the field.
Riggs lay there bleeding and help
less for an hour and a half before he
was found by his brother-in-law, who
had been visiting at the farm.

bride by the groom, essentially OF
jewels, which often represent a for
tune that balances the girls dot.
Funny stipuiations.
These jewels are presented and dis
played for the first time on the all
important morning of the signing of
the marriage contract. Sometimes, be-
sides the explicit financial stipulations,
this contains strange clauses, such as
the bride shall never be asked to live
away from France, that the groom
promises to ever cherish the brides
mother, or that the bride shall never
be forced to eat cheese. The willfnl
breaking of this last clause in a mar
riage contract was the successful mo-
tive for divorce in a French cause
celebre.
Only ten more days elapse now, and
the marriage ceremonies are perform
ed. say ceremonies. for there are
two in every self-respecting French
family. The scant yes before the
MARIE makes the union legal by the
French State law. The more decora-
tive church ceremony makes it legal
in the eyes of religion and conserva-
tive responsibility.

been disban~ed; TagA leaders, with
few exceptions have surrendered and
accepted our authority. Tagal govern

Had the Democratic convention at
Kansas City declared that before any
thing else was considered. peace must
be restored in the Philippines. the brig
ands captured and security for life and
property at once assured under Unit
ed States authority, the Philippines
would be as peaceful to-day as the State
of Ohio.
Discussing imperialism, Mr.. Depew
said:
Il know of no situation so absurd as
for Col. Bryan to stand before an Ohio
audience and describe
Mckinley as An Emperor.
VIM. Mckinley, who, boy and man,
has been your neighbor all his life-has
been good soldier and a good citi-
zen, an able Congressman and most
brilliant President, whose whole life,
from the time he enlisted as boy un-
til to-day-has been at the service OF
his country and for his country's best
interests-Wm. Mckinley an emperor.
Mr.. Depew then proceeded to con-
trast the prophecies of the Democratic
leaders in 1896 and the fulfilled prom
ises of the Republican party, and con-
cluded as follows:
THE safety of our country, the glory
of our flag, the preservation of our in
dustries, the expansion of our COM
merce, the continuation and increase
of our prosperity, are in the hands OF
the American people. If Mckinley is
elected, they are assured; if Bryan is
elected, they are in peril
The overflow meeting was opened

gresham r. w. Taylor and Col. Chas.
Dick.
