The Indiana Union Traction Company is
making an effort to complete the Indianap-
oils Northern traction line between Indian
apolis, Peru and Logansport within the
next four months. The grading has been
completed over the greater part of the right
of way, and bridges over the streams
crossed by the road will be completed as
soon as possible. President McCulloch said
Monday that the contractors were being
hurried and that it was hoped that cars
would be running to Upton by Oct. l, to
Kokomo a little later and to Logansport
and Peru by Christmas.

known about the Philippines or their
inhabitants, but that much was stated
positively, after we had given it some
attention. 10 be sure, Admiral Dewey
had said that they were more capable
of self-government than the Cubans,
and he was on the ground, but as it
served the purposes of the imperial
lists better, they regarded him not fully
able to judge. Aguinaldo had shown
a remarkable insight into the theories
of republican government, but he was
charged with being an ''upstart,' and
so we made them a dependency, with
out any qualification as to the time
they should remain so. No encourage
ment was given that there was likely
to ever be change. Nor is there dis
coverable any purpose on the part of
the republicans to make any change
now.
But census of the archipelago has
been taken under the direction of the
United States, and while the compila-
ton of the results has not been fully
made, Secretary Root gives a rough
count statement of the result by pop
ulation, in bis annual report to Con-
gress. The total number is given as
7.595,000, of which 6,975,OO0 are civil
lied people, and $4,000 are set down
as comprising wild tribes"
This is rather a surprising showing,
under the official representations that
have been made. Ninety-nine per cent,
by actual count, of the Filipinos are
civilized people, and yet they are
kept in subsection because the / per
cent is not in condition to practice
ineligible and progressive self-gov-
eminent. 1t is doubtful if a showing
in Cuba would appear better. Other
items in the report bear out the infer
ences that naturally follow the find

principal reason advanced why the Fill

was that there was small percentage

that lack of civilization, it was neces-

PURE FOOD LAW DOING GOOD.
Better Glass of EdibIes Now Imported,
and We Have to Eat Less Poison.

! A marvellous change mas taken place
in the character of the food brought to
this country since the pure food law
went into effect at the beginning of the
fiscal year, last July Before that
time the importers were able to bring
in anything. If it tasted all right and
did not dispiease the eye, they were
able to dispose of it, This was par
ticularIy 50 about sausages, pate de
foie gras and other meat delicacies OF
| that kind.
| AS rule the stuff that came into
the country prior to the passage of
the law was loaded with salicylic acid.
| Persons wno INDUCED in frankfurters
| that had really been brought from the
otner side consumed more than their
share of the preservative that is now
being investigated by Prof Wiley, the
chief chemist of the department of
agriculture
Preserved foods and other foodstuffs
were found to be colored with analine
dyes, often in quantities that were
positively a menace to the life of any
one consuming a liberal quantity of
the stuff Pickles and fish were also
impregnated with great quantities of
the stuff did not do the stomach
any good eve IL it did not do immed-
late harm.
Since the passage of the law import
ers have come to the officers charged
with the execution of the law with
samples of the goods they were pro-
posing to buy and asked if they could
get into the country. Prof. Wiley has
been able to save many of them use
less expense by showing them why it
would not be possible to get the stuff
past the custom houses. Many of the
importers were careless at first They
ordered goods without a thought of
whether it would be passed by the
pure-food officers. They gave sight
drafts, which were sent to the persons
from whom they had made the pur-
chase as soon as the bills of lading
were received. Many of them found
that the houses with which they had
been dealing were not over honest and
as they had not guaranteed that the
goods would be passed by the food in
spectors they refused 70 return the
money. The manufacturers would
not even pay for the return of the re-
jected merchandise.
All goods not absolutely pure are
supposed To be turned back, but in
practice that is not the case. For
instance. an importer who bought
preserved Strawberries" in Frankfort,
Germany. was permitted to land his
goods upon an agreement that he
would not put them on the market
until after he had affixed label tell
ing the purchaser that the preserved
stuff contained about 20 per cent glu-
cose and was colored with an analine
dye.
Another importer tried to bring in
cargo of similar stuff, but when It was
suggested to him that he must put on
label telling exactly what the CON-
pound contained he threw up his hands
and said he could not sell a pound if
he did that. Prof. Wiley told him that
was just what the law was designed to

ternal similarity to our living lizards,
being land or fresh water forms with
five-toed feet, showing no tendency to
become flipper-like.
Such creatures are found in exceed
ingly old formations much older than
the Jurassic stones that contain the
ichthyosaurians. 1t is believed that in
these ancient forms we are near to
seeing a primeval reptile, the proto-
type itself.
He Remains n Riddle.
But if that is so, the ichthyosaurus
must have developed far away from
those reptilian ancestors and back into
his weird fish form, through the mad
dest riot of adaptation processes and
through the most involved of evolu
tionary changes. We do not know
what these processes and steps may
have been.
The new monster appears suddenly in
the world like a meteor from the sky,
and the oldest forms of the Triassic
period scarcely show a few faint re-
semblances to a lizard-like archtype,
and even those faint resemblance are
doubtful.
Here we have another of the big
breaks in our chains of facts Two
hundred ichthyosaurians a year are
dug out of one place in little Swabla,
and yet, in the whole big earth, we
cannot find a single tiny bone belong
ing to any preceding link form that
might teach us where the old mon
sters place is in the family tree of
life
They were such cases as this that
formed the favorite citations - of the
old supporters of the once popular
theory that the epochs of the worlds
existence were sharply bounded by so
many tremendous catastrophes, in each
of which the entire living world was
stamped out completely to make room
for new creation. The ichthyosaurus
would be a fine witness for this theory
If it had not been wrecked long ago.
We know now that there are no proofs
of such catastropheS. Certain animal
life has maintained itself in primeval
form into to-day; so it must have been
"catastrophe-pro if there were
world cataStrophes.
Of other animals we possess the link
forms, such as that blended creature
archaeopteryx from Solenhofen, whose
fossil cast is in the Berlin Museum and
which links the lizard directly with the
bird
Common sense tells us that there
cannot fail to be many breaks in rec
ords going backward millions of years
We can see plainly that much must
have been lost forever. The earth
holds fast to many of her secrets and
gives up the answer unwillingly or not
at all.
The ichthyosaurus is such a secret
He is our riddle, unanswered after for
ty years of Darwinism.

that was found showed a caudal YER
zebra that was broken near the tail
end.
The dead body, reasoned Owen, no
doubt would drift for a while on the
open sea, buoyed by the gases engen-
dered in decomposition, before it finally
reached its goal in the deep mud of
the bottom of the sea. Now if there
was a heavy caudal fin or fiuke, only
partially supported by bones, it would
begin to dangle as soon as the muscles
ceased their voluntary supporting ac-
tion. Lower and lower it would sink
until, at last. it's great weight broke
the end of the vertebral column.
From the form of the vertebra to
which the great muscles of such a fin
would necessarily have been fastened,
Owen deducted that this caudal fluke
must have been perpendicular to the
body like the fins of fish, and not hori-
zontal as with the whale.
More than half a century had to
elapse before owens ingenious specu-
lations could be proved and improved
by undeniable testimony. Then there
came the unhoped for accident of find
ing stone slab in the Swabian ichthy-
osaurus catacombs that had in it not
only the cast of a skeleton, but also of
all the soft parts.
dicular caudal fin, with two big forks
like a fish tail, clear before the eyes
of the living world.
This same grand specimen showed a
high, triangular dorsal fin, which no
Owen could have suspected. And from
this dorsal fin to the tail extended a
wavy, conventional, continuous fin like
those carried by some of our water sal
amanders
A Monster That Was Unique.
With this new knowledge all COM
parisOn between our lizards and the
ichthyosaurus, so far as externals are
concerned, diminishes to almost moth
ing; and when one views the beast
carefully, it is best to lay aside all
comparisons and say that the ocean s
marvel, considered strictly, looked like
no other extinct or living creature of
the ocean.
The ichthyosaurus simply was
unique-in form and in everything
else.
Our new Investigators have accept
ed this view and have made for it a
distinct order of reptiles, equal in i'm
portance to those of the lizards the
crooodiles and the turtles. The OAR
whist, to be sure, is not content with
this. He is all the more DESTROYS now
to find a branching point where the
individual form of the ichthyosaurians
is Joined to the great ancestral form
of reptiles.
Everything appears to point to the
fact that the oldest forms of these rep
tiles-if they all did develop from one
ancient form-possessed a certain eX-
