s TWO ANIMALS IN ONE,
One Half of Chameleon, May Be Wide Awake and the
 Other Asleep.

To all appearances and according
 to the researches of those best capa. ble of forming an opinion on the sub.
 ]ect the nervous centers in one lateral
 half of the chameleon go on independ- ently of those on the other, and it has two lateral centers of perception sensation and motion-besides the common one in which must reside the faculty of concentration, says the Scientific American.
 The eyes move independently of one another and convey separate i'm pressions to their respective centers of perception. The consequence is that when the animal is agitated it's movements resemble those of two anil mals or rather perhaps two halves of animals glued together. Each half wishes to go it's own way and there is no concordance of action
 The chameleon, therefore, is the only four-legged vertebrate that is un- able to swim; it becomes so fright ened when dropped into water that all faculty of concentration is lost and the creature tumbles about as If in state of intoxication.
 When a chameleon is undisturbed every impulse to motion is referred to the proper tribunal and the whole organism acts in accordance with it's decrees.
 The chameleon, moreover, may be fast asleep on one side and wide awake on the other. Cautiously ap- preached at night with candle so as not to awaken the whole animal at once, the eye turned toward the light will open, begin to move and the cor responding side to change color, whereas the other side will remain for a longer or shorter time in torpid, and unchanged state, with its eye fast shut.

UNIQUE PLAYERS KILLED
Theater People Mourn Death Of Stage
. Folks in Frisco.

FELittle Jimmie Latourelle, leader
Of the orchestra at the. Unique theater,
has received bad news concerning sew
eral former favorites among the actors
and actresses who played at that the
alter. In letter dated April 20,
Henry Woehning, writing from the
stricken district of San Francisco,
says: s,,.,-s 49,.
Among the dead in Oakland, I hap
pened to see one of the beautiful Wiz
ner girls, who played in your. theater
a short time ago. They sang the inter
mezzo, you remember. The youngest
girl is. alive, but in a terrible condi-
tion. They were injured in lodging
house which collapsed.
Another old favorite in Minneap-
oils, you remember, was Ted r.. Box,
the eccentric English comedian, and
the Wrens, musical sketch artists. ]
understand they are both dead.
There is nothing left for the 800
musicians of this city, and / am going
to get out. They say the earthquake
only lasted forty Eight seconds. Nv
honest Judgment is that it lasted .thir.
ty-five minutes.

RUN ON MARRIAGE :.
-. LICENSE DISPENSARY.
More Fancies Than Usual Turned to
Thoughts Of Love and Matrimony
in the Past Week.. 8.

Beginning Monday, "run'' was
inaugurated on the marriage license
counter and the deputy clerks have
been kept on the jump filling out han
piness affidavits and certificates. The
hrst three days of the week show to-
tai Of 100 fancies turned to thoughts
of love and matrimony.A Monday car
ried off the honors with eighteen mar
riage licenses; Tuesday there were if
teen, and Wednesday seventeen Hcens-
es issued to twice that number of per-
sons. = ,,.z=S2s2 5s%ts.Stt 80
This is the high record for April.
June is the banner month for mar
riages, but June's laurels are imper-
lied by April, and the month Of weep
ing skies may yet become the month
of wedding smiles.
After. Wednesday, the rush subsidized
somewhat and in the last three days
only twenty one licenses were issued.
This brings to light again the fact that
superstition is a !, potent influence in
Minneapolis as in all the rest Of the
world. For in selecting wedding days
Friday is Stunned .as carefully as if 1t
carried with it pestilence, unhappiness
and dire disaster. Thursday has al.
! ways been an unpopular wedding day
too; why, it is hard to say, unless the
| newly, married dislike missing prayer
meeting. Saturday is almost as un.
popular as Friday, and weekend mar
riages have never obtained . to any
/ great extent in Hennepin county.
! Notwithstanding the disaffectior
during the last half Of the week, il
the first halves continue, April anc
May be banner, months this year.

GRAND ARMY WORK
IS BECOMING HEAVY
SLIGHT DELAY is CAUSED BY
EARTHQUAKE WORK.
Committees Will Now Buckle Down to
Task Of Completing fund and Will
Then Map Out General Plans of En-
tertainment- Accommodations Is Ser
ious Problem.

Plans for the entertainment of the
national Grand Army encampment next
August are to be undertaken with new
zeal this week after having been tenn
porarily sidetracked for ten days
by the California relief fund work.
Many members Of the G.. A. R. execu-
tive committee are also members of the
relief executive committee and the af
fairs of the latter have been given
precedence.
Everything in sight favors bril-
liant week for Minneapolis next Aug
ust. From all parts Of the country re-
quests for information, accommoda-
tions, reservations. ETC., are pouring In,
showing the widespread and general in
terest that is taken in the Minneapolis
encampment. Nobody who comes to
Minneapolis as visitor that week is
to be disappointed. Strong, well or
eral lines mapped out by the execu-
tive committee are in charge of every
possible phase of the work. Every
thing for the convenience, comfort, in
terest and amusement of the thousands
of visitors that the mind can suggest
is to be provided. ~. ~
Work Is Pressing.
The work Of organization was under
| taken none too soon for the heavy pre-
/ liminary business of the encampment
has started earlier than usual. The en-
! tire organization is now practically
complete. the few unorganized commit
/ tees having little to do. One great
problem that confronts the general COM
! mlttee Us to secure accommo dations
for the thousands Of visitors that are
to be here. This is specially true Of the
large post and veteran organizations
that will come in body and will wish
to be quartered together.
/ Captain A. W. Guild custodian of the
! state university has consented to act as
chairman of the accommodations com
mittee and finds that he already has
plenty of work in sight. Arrangements
are now under way to secure cots and
bedding for fitting post department and
i organization quarters in vacant store
and office buildings, halls and school
1 houses. After going over the requests
now on file it is found that at least r.
] required and further requests will re
quire the placing Of additional orders
