Lemur. For the Zoo.

The national zoo has just received
through an animal dealer in Philadel-
phia magnificent pair Of the large
black and white lemurs indigenous to
the island of Madagascar. This makes
the fourth pair Of these animals
brought to this country. and. in addi-
ton to being highly attractive by rea-
son Of their coat Of long jet black and
snow white hair and their abnormally
large and luminous eyes, they are of
very great interest from the viewpoint
of science and evolution. ,a ..
The lemur stands in the same rela-
ton to apes and monkeys as they In
turn stand to the human race, only in
the case Of the lemurs and apes the
missing link" connecting the two gen.
era is in real and actual existence, be-
ing realized in the "aye-aye," a pecul-
lar animal, also Of Madagascar, that is
as much lemur as it is simian.

soTapid as to make them a!nnst invisi-

entire attention of the physicians as
signed to hold the autopsy was direct
ed towards discovering, if possible,
whether the assassin was in any way
mentally irresponsible. The autopsy
was conducted by DR.. Carlos F. Nc
Donald, e. A. Spitzka, and Prison Phy-
sician Germ. The top Of the head
was sawed off through the thickest
part of the skull, which was found to
be of normal thickness, and it was the
unanimous agreement Of the micro
scopal examination that the brain was
normal. or slightly above normal. This
demonstrated to the satisfaction of
the physicians that in no way was
Czolgosz' mental condition, except as
it might have been perverted, respon-
sible for the crime. 3ss
After the autopsy the body was
placed Id a black stained pine cofffn,
every portion of the anatomy being re-
placed under the supervision of DR..
Germ and Warden Mead. Shortly
afterwards it was taken to the prison
cemetery and an extraordinary pre-
caution taken to completely destroy
It by pouring large quantity of acid
over it as it was lowered into the
grave. 1t is the belief of the physi-
clans that the body will be entirely
disintegrated within IL hours. Dur.
ing that time, and as long as is deem
ed necessary, guard will be kept
over the unmarked grave. .l N

These were his last words as the
guards hurried him into the chair.
A moment later, mumbhng through
the half adjusted face straps he said:

my father"
Czolgosz retired at 10 O'Clock the
previous night and slept SO soundly
that when Warden Mead went to the
cell shortly before 5 o'clock the guard
inside had to shake Czolgosz to awak-
en- him. He sat on the edge Of his cot
and made no reply to the warden s
greeting OF Good morning"
The prison official took from his
pocket the death warrant and read 1t
slowly and distinctly to the assassin
who hardly raised his eyes during the
perfunctory ceremony.
Just as the warden stepped away
from the cell door Czolgosz called to
him and said:
Il would like to talk with the super.
intendent."
The warden responded: "He will be
down presently.''
Then the condemned man rolled
over on his cot apparently anxious to
sleep again.

Large Sale of School Land.

The results of the sales of school
lands in eight counties of the state
show the wealth of the school endow-
ment of the state. Last winter the
legislature authorized the sale of about
25,OO0 acres Of state and institution
lands to replenish the permanent
school fund of the state. These sales
were begun in September and a por-
ton OF them have been completed.
The total acreage sold up to the pres
ent time is 1928, and the total pur-
chase price is approximately $430, 900.
Paid for Farm With One Crop.
That fax is a paying crop in this
state is demonstrated by the results
obtained by Anton Peterson, of Stuts-
man county. A year ago he bought a
quarter section of land for $1,000.
Last fall and this spring he broke 1856
acres, which he sowed to fax. He
raised $500 bushels of seed, which he
sold at $1.39 a bushel, q total Of $3,475,
or $1,S75 more than he paid for the
land.

A R.ttlesnake.. rans..

You often hear of rendering rattle
snake harmless by pulling out its
fangs. Then. again. you read Of cases
where a serpent SO treated has bitten
persons fatally. The reason for this is
that poisonous snake is deprived only
temporarily Of it's venomous powers by
the extraction of the two incisors In
the upper jaw. at the bases of which
are the poison glands. OF course you
know that the fangs are hollow. SC
that when the animal strikes the ven.
ON gushes through them into the flesh
of the person struck. Now. by draw
ing the two teeth the snake may be
rendered harmless for few weeks
but after a short time the two teett
just behind the original fangs move u!
and take their places, making cOnnec
ton with the poison glands and thu:
becoming poison fangs MS good and eff
fecttve as the old ones.

If His Statement Is Verified, He VIII
BE Highly Commended.

Policeman James Shipley was yester-
day called before Major Sylvester to an
swer charge preferred against him by
Kate Mack. colored, of, Eighteenth
Street southeast, who alleges that he en-
tered her house by force last Friday
night and in doing so assaulted her and
used unnecessary force and harsh lam
guage toward the other inmates of the
house.
In replying to the charge, Policeman
Shipley states that an order had just been
issued to members of the department to
exert every energy to apprehend Charles
Doyle, who had made his escape after
cutting the throat of Harlan Dent, in
the stables of the United States Express
Company, at AL C Street northwest.
Shipley was consequently on the alert,
and when he saw a colored man answer
ing the description of the escaped mur-
derer enter the house of the Mack wo-
man he followed the stranger
Although the policeman addressed the
woman in gentlemanly manner and told
her his business. she endeavored to pre-
vent him from searching the house and
1t was necessary for him to force his way
into the building. He was unable to find

denies having used any abusive language
and says that the only language of that
character was indulged in by the COM

matter by the police authorities and If

fed, it is probable that ne will be COM

ter inspecting the school and noting the
methods of education introduced by Ray

Mr. Macfarland reviewed the changes In
the system of government in the cities of

to the fact that the District Of Columbia
has a larger population than six of the
States of the Union. and greater than
any of the Territories

was devoted TO a detailed account of the
duties and powers of the District Com

the statement that he had done more
for the District of Columbia than any

Of the value of the services to be rem
dered. Few of the applicants had any
knowledge OF pole climbing, and the few
that had had none of handling bees. This
was the situation up TO 5 O'Clock Monday
night when the man of many talents
appeared who could climb poles and ham
die bees equally well. The terms demand
ed by this applicant were nothing further
than a surrender of all title to the bees,
and the contract was made.
Accompanied only by a lineman, the
of the trouble. He shod himself with the
climbing spurs and without any protec-
ton made his way up the pole to the
cross trees. nearly sixty feet in air. His
methods were all his own. Not a bee
hummed. Not a bee stung. A little
smoke and sulphur fumes. apparently.
and the way was open to complete the
conquest
The man of many nerves opened the
iron receiving box, abstracted the queen
bee, who was in a very much dazed con-
ditioii, and placed her majesty in a hive
which he had with him. The rest of the
bees, on recovering from their stupor fol-
lowed into the new hive, and the trouble
was over
The comb and honey were then removed
and the box cleaned. Now the distribu-
ting box is as bare of interest as though
