straneest Frog In the World.

In Brazil has now been found the most curious frog in the entire world, It is known as ''FIyla faber,' and the differ enoe between it and other batrachians lies in the fact that the females of this species regularly build nests In which they lay their eggs, thedr object being te preserve their little ones from the enemies that constantly threaten them.
 When the time for incubation approach es the female goes down to marsh and proceeds to build circular wall of earth which when completed Is about one foot in diameter. She starts to build at the bottom of the marsh and she continues tc work until 1t Is at least ten centimeters above the water. Two nights suce to complete the nest, and then the female en- ters 1t and lays her eggs. Her worthy spouse, 1t is said, does not give her the slightest assistance in constructing the nest, but, after the progeny are born, he shows his solicitude for them by rtfnain- ing in the vicinity, presumably with the object of doing sentinel duty

As soon as he set foot on Nicaraguan soil he was arrested on a criminal charge He was placed in jail with prospects of a speedy trial when the Sydney left.

paid out s327 in cold cash for lot s in block IA of the Fort Dearborn addi- ton. People wondered what had come over the physician; and it is handed down that the transaction shattered tile faith of a number of Ifs patients, wH0 hsQred that such a reckless in- vestlnef3t didn't speak well fsr any mans ability. The doctor held the property three years, at the end oi which time he considered himself for. tunate to dispose of 1t to Erasmus Cole at slight profit.
 In 1s44 MT. Cole sold the land to S., W. Peck, who, at the end of 1845, con- veyed 1t to his partner, l.. W. Beyce for $750. In defence of his action Mir Boyce told his friends that the deal was not made for investment purposes. but that he liked nice, quiet spot for home. He built house on the land and lived in 1t with his family for sev. eral years. After MT. Boyee's death a MT. Jones bought the property and oo: cupied the dwelling for a niiInBer of years. The property changed hands few more times, and in 1876 Marshall Field came along. He purchased the house and land for $191, GOO. By this time the people had begun to figure out that Chicago was destined to become great, and they applauded Mr. Field for his wise move.
 Twenty years later MT. Field nego. tiated lease for ninety-nine years on the property, the contract calling for yearly rental of s40,000 for the first seven years and s50,000 for the balance of the term. These rentals set value of about s1,000,000 on the ground, and 1t Is doubtful If that amount now would even be considered as a purchasing price. The lot Is located at the north- east corner of State and Madison streets, the site of a part of Mandel Brothers great store. It has front age of 58 feet in State street and q depth of 150 feet.

form of resolution by themselves thus accepting the Platt amendment as passed by Congress.
 Tt is true," said one of the conserva- tives in question, that the committees interpretations of the explanations of the Teller resolution. which was offered by Governor General Wood and Secretary Root together with the Washington com missions report, were included with the Platt amendment as an appendix to the Constitution; but when we voted on the report 1t was with but one purpose in view, namely, to accept the Platt amend ment."
 Both delegates expressed regret that a misunderstanding had arisen and said they doubted that the convention would now reconsider this action as the fight had been hot, the victory had been won by only one vote, and those who had tried to do their duty toward their country had been bitterly assailed by traitors and per jurers.
 Senors Capote and Tamayao had long conference with General Wood tonight.
 General Wood said: T never understood that the explanations of Secretary Root would be Incorporated in the acceptance. I always considered that the convention regarded these explanations as explana- tions merely and that they would form no part of the acceptance"
