Two-Fold Evolution.
From the New York Tribune.


Prof Darwins address before the British
Association for the Advancement of Science
at Cape Town on Tuesday evening was
marked by good taste and was full of sug-
gestion. Progress from the simple and ele-
mertary to the complex and highly organ
lied has taken place, both in the animate
end inanimate creations. AS an astron-
omer, the speaker has had occasion to study
principally the phenomenon in the latter
field. He has had reason to note the ad-
vance from primeval chaos, the nebula. to
the earth we know it. Mans acquaint-
ance with its FORM constituents and his
tory Is still limited but it is impossible to
recognize some of the important changes
which have taken place since its origin. A
crust has been formed by cooling, some of
the elements have been separated from the
others. the surface OF the globe has been
divided into ocean and continent, and an
infinite variety of topography has resulted
from the sculpture of tho weather from
countless ages. Prof. Darwin coCiI hardly
fail spontaneously to observe that the two
processes Of evolution, of life and of matter
had many points in common. and perceive
that in one there might be helpful guides
to the student of the other.
The most original part of the teachings
oe the speakers father was not the theory
Of evolution, but that of natural selection.
Development from low forms to high ones
and the divergence of one species from an
other through variation having been recog-
niZed, the question arose, what influence
served to perpetuate some groups of plants
ami animals and eXtinguish others Charles
Darwin and Alfred Russell Wallace almost
simultaneously hit on the same theory-the
doctrine happily designated by Spencer as
Tho survival OF the fittest." Not being q
biologist, Prof. George Darwin hardly feels
competent to say how far a modification OF
that hypothesis has become necessary. Still
even in saying so, he shows that he Is
aware Of the controversies which have been
waged over the matter. and which have not
yet been finally adjusted. He thinks. how
ever, that in certain ways natural selection
may have operated in the evolution of the
material universe. When the full text of
his address is available 1T will be interesting
to see how he applies the theory to astron-
omy and geology.

PLANS A MODEL CITY.
Indiana Man Seeks Site for Co.
Operative Arcadia.

From the New York Sun.
]. A Everett. an Indiana newspaper man,
is now seeking a location for his Model
City" an Arcadia on cooperative lines.
His hope is to obtain an option on town
Of 1900 or $500 inhabitants either in In
diana Illinois, and there to found what
he believes will become the agricultural
capital of the United States. Other options
will be taken on all land for miles around.
Land owners who are on the land when
Mr.. Everett acquires 1t will be permitted to
retain their homes and twenty acres IL they
so desire. The rest of the property will be
laid out in twenty-acre tracts. which will
be offered to settlers who desire TO engage
in farming.
The cIty's government will be on the lines
of equal rights and privileges and equal
profits to all who share It's burdens.
All the public utilities light, heat.
power, transportation or water, will be
owned by the city and supplied to the con-
sumner at actual cost
The question OF money, Mr.. Everett says.
will be met by membership dues, and en-
trance fees into what may be termed THE
Community" With this fund as a nucleus
and with revenues from sale OF land and
the various interests OF the society 1t IS
hoped that the matter can be adjust ed sat-
!sfactorily.
An important feature OF the industries of
this community will be the regular publ
cation of official books and papers and the
issuing of all documents and blanks neces-
sary for the systematic carrying on of the
enterprise. Each agricultural interest will
have its individual organ
Another part Of the society's work as Mr..
Everett dreams of 1t would be the founda-
ton and maintenance OF all schools neces-
sary for the technical education Of farmers
and their children. It is the plan to estab-
fish great parent university in the model
city. which would have branches in other
agricultural districts tehroughout the coun-
try. Insurance policies on crops will be Is
sued against floods, storms and drought.

these last two years except In kingly way,
his only daughter, the Princess Helena, has

1t not only traces the descent of present

lines. The work has been highly praised
In many quarters, and especially in Italy,
