farm near Lansing. Kan. Mr.. Long
CHANGED to hear of the finding of the
skull and went to Lansing. If the
opinion of Cura tor Long and Prof.
Williston is correct, as they feel as
sured it is, the Lansing skull' for the
first time offers tangible proof of the
existence of prehistoric man in North
America. In Europe several prehis-
toric skulls, have been found, but this
is the first to be found in America.
The Lansing skull was found deep
under well-defned strata of earth and
rock, and was imbedded in what is
called river loess. This prehistoric
man was probably a contemporary
of the mas todon and giant sloth.
The photograph does not give an
adequate idea of the peculiarities Of
the perceptive faculties. The fore
head slopes back Immediately from
the eyes, and there is practically no
forehead. Over the eyes, however,
are well-developed ridges, which are
taken to denote that the perceptive
faculties were considera BILE. The back
of the skull, as seen in the illustration.
is almost abnormally developed, and
there the skull is very thick. Pieces
of stone are attached to and imbedded
in the skull, and those pieces of stone
are identified with those found at
tached to the bones of mastodons.
The cracks seen in the skull we're
caused by the workmen who found 1t,
for they attached no Importance to
the find and allowed several heavy
boxes to fall upon it, breaking it into
half dozen pieces. Curator Long has
copyrighted the Photographs.

zenith district, Where he has deyel-
oped an organization as compact as
any-even the far-famed Twenty
eighth - in the city. He never
held Office except in the Van Wyck
administration, when he was a dock
commissioner.
In appearance Mr.. Murphy is youth
full far below his years. His voice is
mild and his manner quiet and he has
a pronounced habit Of never talking
until ne has something to say and
then not telling more than he wants
one to know. He was recently mar
ried and lives in unpretentious style
in East Seventeenth street, facing
Stuyvesant square.
The new leader might be taken for
a priest at first glance. His smooth
shaven face, the high, straight collar
he wears, the black necktie, the dark
clothing help along the idea.
But inspection shows that his face
lacks something that is apparent in
the faces of all priests-the express
sion that comes from submission.
There is nothing in the face OF
Charles F. Murphy to indicate that
he would submit to anybody. 1t is
fearless face, the face of q COM
mander of men.

be said that he has two smiles-one
he uses when he amuses himself and
the other when somebody else amuses
him. There is difference in the
smiles, but it cannot be explained on
paper.

that the rain spout is turned away
from it, and it is not intended to
serve any practical purpose, but is
simply preserved as treasured relic.
In giving it position of honor,
where it will attract the attention of
the visitor soon after entering the
famous gardens, the place has been
carefully chosen. For although it
had been taken from the old well

when Washington's horses drank
from it, it has been placed near the
famous "Washington arbor" on the

of Schuylkill.

NAN OF WIDE FORCE.
George F. Baer, Magnate Of the An
thracite Combine.
Never Misses Church and Relieves
That Deity Specially Guards
Capital Rose from the Case
to Millionaire Class.

George F. Baer, keen, persevering
and intensely earnest, holds at this
time the most commanding position III
the country. It is he who can stay
or refuse to stay the coal war and de-
eide how much or how little anthracite
the people of the United States may
burn this winter.
Mr.. Baer is president of the Read
ing company and acknowledged leader
of the Pennsylvania operators, and
thus has it in his power to settle the
prolonged dispute which for nearly six
months has tied up the companies OF
the east. Yet, occupying the position
he does, he is one of the least known
men in the country, and man, too,
who has no desire to be known.
w. +. Clark, photographer of
Wilkesbarre, recently addressed let
ter to President Baer, appealing to him
as Christian to settle the miners
strike. The writer said if Christ was
taken more into our business affairs
there would be less trouble in the
world, and that if Mr.. Baer granted
the strikers slight concession they
would gladly return to work. and the
president of the Philadelphia 6
Reading Railway company would have
the blessing of God and the respect
of the nation.
President Baer replied as follows:
| l see you are evidently biased in your re-
| ligious views in favor of the right Of the
workingmar' to control business in which
he has no other interest than to secure fair
wages for the work he does. I beg Of you
not to be discouraged. The right and in
terests of the laboring men will be protect
ed and cared for, II OF by the labor agitators.

WHITE HOUSE CHINA
Entirely New Dinner Set Selected
by Mrs. Roosevelt.
Great Seal OF the United States to BE
Its Distinctive Deslgn-Pattern
Itself Ii OF the SO.Called
Colonial Style.

When Mrs. Theodore Roosevelt re-
tires as the mistress of the white
house she will leave a souvenir
which will endear her to future pres
dents wives.
With the change in the interior
decoration and arrangements OF the
white house there will also be new
set of china and glassware which
will be the envy Of every housewife
in the country. 1t is doubtful if
there is another set as handsome in
use in the United States. The price
to be paid for this porcelain service
is not divulged, but it is said it will
be about $4,000 for the 500 or more
pieces.
When Mrs. Roosevelt began her du.
ties in the white house she found
that the china for state occasions
and large receptions had been in use
since 1880, having been selected by
Mrs. Hayes. The first social function
given by Mrs. Roosevelt showed that
the service was entirely inadequate.
Ills service is very handsome, and
cost $4,000, but time and servants
have left their marks upon it. 1t
was designed by Theodore r. Davis,
and the decorations were American
fauna and fora. It was manufac-
tured by Haviland & Co., of France.
The designs were made in water col
or, and although in nearly every in
stance they were bold and striking,
they were difficult to reproduce upon
porcelain with hard mineral eolors.
To successfully accomplish this it
was necessary to invent new methods
and have recourse to peculiar me-
chanical appliances.
Mrs. Roosevelt sent nearly year
ago for Charles NJ. Van Heusen, of

omnipotent still weighs and that his reign
and crime.
When j. Pierpont Morgan the other
day refused to interfere in the strike
those who knew Mr.. Baer smiled.
"We!l, that may be Mr.. Morgan's de-
cision," they said, "but he couldn't do
otherwise when Mr.. Baer presented the
case to him."
And that goes far to explain the
character of the man. Heis dominated
by determination, by bulldog tenacity,
and has way of impressing his views
upon others which in this case, it is
believed, even the mighty Morgan
could not resist. .....
George F. Baer is a Pennsylvania
by birth and is 60 years old. He does
not look it. There are few gray hairs in
his head and he is as erect as man
half his years. A dignity which is so
pronounced that it almost seems to be
deliberate marks his bearing.
For all that he is, so far from being
an aristocrat, a self-made man. At the
age of 10 he entered the Office of the
Somerset Democrat, in Somerset, Pa,
his birthplace, and studied the trade
at the case for two years.
In 1861 he and his brother Henry
bought the Democrat, which was only
acountry weekly, and when the brother
went to the war George edited and
printed the paper by day and studied
law by night.
Eventually he, too, decided to see
service, and in 1862 he gave up the paper
and raised company of volunteers,
Of which he was made captain. He
served in the army of the Potomac and
became adjutant general of the second
brigade. Then, when his term of ser
vice had expired, he went back to Som
erset and resumed the study of law.
He was admitted to the bar in 1864
and went to Reading four years later.
It was in those early days that he won
a victory in damage suit against the
Reading, proving the possession OF such
ability that those in control of the
railroad say: "This man is too dan
gerous as an enemy. We must have
him on our sidc."
He was employed as counsel for the
company, and in that way became 2
corporation man. His talents as law
yer proved quite as valuable as had
been anticipated and it was largely as
a result of his skill in steering the
Reading over many difficult shoals
that he was at last elevated to the
presidency.
In his tastes Mr.. Baer is domestic
His home, Hawthorne, in the suburbs
of Reading, is beautiful. He also has
a large town house in Spruce street,
Philadelphia, which he occupies dur
ing periods of the winter.
He is deep student and has COM
prehensive library. The family con-
siSts of himself, his wife and five daugh-
tsrs two of whom are married.

he was led to the study of biology.
Beginning in Strassburg and Wurz-
burg, DR.. Loeb worked zealously.
About nine or ten years ago he left
his native country and went to Bryn
Mawr, and eight years ago joined the
faculty of the University of Chicago.
In this institution the professor has
been associated with the Hull Physi-
ology laboratory, in which he has
made some wonderful advances in
scientific knowledge. He is physi-
clan as well as a psychologist.
Early in his researches, he says,
he concluded that forces of nature
obtaining in living things are the
same as those which govern mani
mate objects. With such belief he
felt impelled to take life in his hands
and play with it, to direct it at will,
as if man were master of it.
At the outset Dr.. Loeb inquired,
Why does moth fly to the light?
A flower turn toward the sunshine?
So much may suffice for an illustra-
ton, but there were innumerable
other questions presented to him as
a result of observation of phenom-
ena. A rule of action was seen in
each and every one, and DIR. Loeb
was led to believe that the same
forces lie behind the rule in the an
innate and inanimate orders. These
were mere preliminary steps. They
led to experiments with the lower
forms of animal life, which are diff
cult of classification as animal or
plant. He made an incision in one
of them. and a moth made its APP
nearance with tcntacles, which took
in food, but rejected bits Of paper.
Experimenting with jellyfish. he
cut away the upper portion, and the
fish ceased moving. Placing it upon
common salt the body resumed its
characteristic movements as if life
were returned A trace of potassium
stopped the movements. .
Studies on the effects of salts upon
life phenomena followed. and infer
tilted eggs treated with a solution
of chloride of magnesium developed
life. It is well known that unfertil-
ized eggs very soon decay. hence they
cannot be termed living matter.
They are. therefore, simply organic
matter. which. when treated chemi-
calIy. as discovered by Prof. Loeb,
can be developed into living organ

lists of the Day.
lis Study Of the Chemistry Of Life
Has AstOnished the WOrld-May
Leave Chicago and Go TO
California.

DR.. Jacques Loeb. professor of ex-
periment al physiology at the Univer-
sity of Chicago, is now at San Fran
cisco, where he has gone to pursue
his researches. He is the guest OF
President Wheeler, of the University
of California, and there are rumors
that great efforts will be made to
induce him to accept chair at Ber-
kelley.
President Harper was greatly dis
turbed when his scientist received a
call to the University Of California
few months ago, and feared that
DIR. Loeb would go to the Pacific
coast to remain. DR.. Loeb was Of
fered magnificent sea aquarium if
he would go to California.
This sea aquarium has been one Of
the facilities for his study that DR..
Loeb has wanted for long time, and
he was much impressed by the Cali
fornia offer. The scientist has not
been able to secure as many animals
on which to experiment at the uni
versity as he has wished.
President Harper felt that he could
not lose his studious professor, there
fore he has persuaded friend of the
university to build and endow fine
sea aquarium where DR.. Loeb can
grow all the jelly fish, sea urchins
and other salt water inhabitants that
he wishes.
A little more than year ago, says
the Philadelphia Press, DR.. Loeb
came prominently into public notice,
when he demonstrated, that it was
possible by artificial processes to
produce life, or living beings.
Prof. Loeb is AZ years of age, ma
tive of Germany. Early in his career

PREHISTORIC AMERICAN.
Great Interest Attaches to the IN.
covering of n Buried Skull Near
Lansing, Ham.

NJ C. Long, curator Of the Kansas
City public museum, has photographed
the Lansing SKULL" from different
viewpoints, and the accompanying
illustration, says the Kansas City
Star, is reproduced from one of the
photographs. The prehistoric skull is
now in the possession of Mr.. Long.
After a thorough investigation Mr..
Long is satisfied that the skull is that
of a prehistoric man, who in all proba.
bility lived during the glacial period!
$4,000 years ago, and this opinion is
fully shared by Prof. S. w. Williston,
of the Kansas university.
On March 23 of this year workmen
found the skull while digging a tun.
