There are two animals In Australia
that lay eggs after the manner Of birds
and reptiles. They are those quaint
creatures the ornithorhynchus, or
duck billed platypus. and the echldna,
or porcupine ant eater. The former
lays its eggs In burrows, which It
scratches out on the banks Of rivers.
The latter carries them until Matched
In a pouch somewhat like the kanga-
roo's.
In many respects these animals have
an anatomical affinity to reptiles. but
their mouths are toothless and beak-
like, resembling those of birds, while
the feet Of the platypus are webbed.
The Dlatypus is a semiaquatic animal,
and the porcuplne ant enter is much
ike the ground hog in appearance.

CLASS LEGISLATION.

The use OF palm oil in the manufac-
ture Of oleomargarine has been inter-
preted by the supreme court of the
United States to be Substances used
for coloring purposes" which is ex-
pressly forbidden in the Grout bill
passed by congress to knock out the
oleo industry. In this the court took
q reasonable view of the wording of
the law, but it is disappointing that
the constitutionality Of the law iself
was not UP for review. If ever there
was piece of class legislation adj
mitted to federal statute books it was
the cleo law. Cleo as a substitute
for butter was proved to be a clean
and wholesome food, much cleaner in
fact, than much butter that finds its
way to the market But because but
ter men are organized and have more
votes than the oleo manufacturers
congress, passed the law suppressing
one industry in order to free another
from its competition. Farmers who
rails steers are deprived of market
for tallow that could easily add dol
lar or so to the price of steer, and
the sole reason for such a law was to
remove the oleo from competition with
butter. Yet class legislation is sup
posed to be prescribed in American
law.

but the two latter papers are less sure
that Parker will get the states cleo

The democrats rely on dissention be-
tween the friends OF Plat and those
of Odell, and the unpopularity of the
latter to carry the state for them,
while the republicans put equal reli-
ance on the fact that Tammany has
never been appeased for the Insults
given to it and is not going to "break

York City strong enough to overcome

But to win the presidency, the DEM
ocrats' must carry other states. They

many years, remarks the Washington
Post (Ind.), and if one should go dem
ocratic and the other republican, or If
New York should go democratic ana
Roosevelt be elected, two long es-
tablished presidents would be badly
shattered" There are indications,
however, that Indiana will remain In
the republican column. where it has
been in the last two national elections.
Major j. M. Carson, the veteran
Washington correspondent of the Phil
adelpnia Ledger Ind. Dem), places
New York in the democratic list and
Indiana in the republican; and the
Washington correspondent Of the New
York Evening Post Qnd) says that
''if the silver democrats support Far
ker, Indiana will be as close as it was
in several presidential campaigns pre-
ceding 1896; but if they refuse to sup
port him, Roosevelt will carry the state
by substantial plurality" Walter
Wellrnan, the astute Washington cor
respondent Of the Philadelphia Press
Rep.) and Chicago Record-Herald,
(Rep.) has visited the state and finds
that in recent years Indiana has been
slowly republicanized." The first
voters" are pretty solid for Roosevelt,
the Bryanites are "sore," the negro
immi grafton has been large, and, to
sum up, Mr.. Wellman says that with
the republican ranks virtually solid,
with the democracy bound to lose a
few thousands of the Bryanites, with
nothing present in the public mind to
lead to on upheaval. and with Indiana
a republican state to start with, one
does not need to be a seventh son to
foresee the result"

SMITHS ASSESSMENT.

lCedar Rapids Republican,
Can anyone imagine the feelings of
this old man. who all his years has
had these honors and pleasures which
he treasured thick upon him. Think
OF him as he walks up the stone steps
into the warden's office to be interro-
gated as to his ancestry, his education,
his religion; then to be photograph
for the rogues gallery, his measure
taken, according to the Bertillon sys-
tenn, and then passed over to the
prison barber for felon's clip and
bath, then to be conducted to the mar
row cells into which men crawl like
animals into their holes. It would
seem as tho his heart must break very
soon with the awful load of shame and
remorse.
The annals of crime contain stranger
stories and more perplexing studies in
psychology that are to be found in
novels or learned treatises. Think of
the life this man has led. How could
he have gone about among his fellow
men, hailed everywhere as the worthy
son of distinguished sire-church-
man, philanthropist, publicist, finan-
cier-and al the time a defaulter and
thief? What strange elements were
mixed in that character! What were
the mans thoughts as he went about
the streets, receiving the salutations
and plaudits of his fellow citizens, ac-
cepting constantly new honors and new
responsibilities? What were his
thoughts in the silent watches of the
night? Did he ever start and turn pale
when on occasion his pastor quoted the
text: "Be not deceived. God is not
Knocked whatsoever man soweth that
shall he also reap?" That was a
bright genius who declared not long
ago that if you should stop every man
and woman you met on the street dur
ing a short walk and thru some mys-
ferrous power so gain their confidence
that those you Intercepted should tell
YOU the real story of their lives with
all their secrets, then you would have
book out of these tales as they were
told to YOU that would rival in mys-
tery any novel that was ever conjured
1p in the imagination of a master plot
maker.

NEW YORK AND INDIANA.

With the betting odds in New York
City at to on Roosevelt's carrying
New York state, it would seem that the
professionals are confident of republi-
can success, but everywhere careful
business men are found who are
afraid. They claim to see an under
current that the political managers

wANTED..A MAN.

The world demands a man was the
conclusion reached at Wednesday eve
ning's session of the church conven-
ton now in progress in Marshalltown.
For this reason the problem of the
small church and of the backward
church is but a problem of finding
man. Noted leaders in the Baptist
church proceeded to demonstrate that
the right kind Of man can work out
a comfortable living even in fields Of
church membership limited to fifty
persons. The perquisites Of wedding
and funeral fees with the favors
shown a popular pastor by wealthy
Pensioners, added to the usual salary
Of $500 per year can easily give a
good man an annual income of $1,000
to $1,000, which is adequate in a small
town. It was the contention Of these
church men that the preacher, even
in the small church, who applied for
assistance from the general fund, made
an admission of his failure by the very
act Of such appeal.
So it Is in every avocation of life.
The world wants man. When
preachers complain of church attend
ance they should look for the cause in
the preacher himself. In business life
men will follow one another in the
same line Of trade under identical con-
ditions and one will fail while the next
will succeed. The only difference is
in the man. Managers Of large affairs
will put an employee in a position of
responsibility only to be told that the
conditions make success impossible,
but a change of employees will often
solve the problem and overcome the
apparent conditions in twinkling.
The secret of success is in the man.
In the ministry more than any other
profession the world demands ability.
A preacher is called to assume lead
ership as is a captain placed in charge
OF troops or manager put at the head
of men of an industry. A preacher is
hired to lead and leaders must alf be
men of ability. Hence it is that the
worlds call for man makes it's most
rigid demands in this profession. And
real men respond, too, in great num-
bers, but the world will never be salts
fed until all of its preachers are
men
