THE ''oRoH|PPUs"
HORSE EVOLUTION IS NOW
COMPLETED.
American Museum at Last Success
full in It's Search for Missing
Link in Equine Descent. ~

New York, Jan. 21-At last the
chain Of equine evolution is complete
After years of search, and just when
all hopes of success had been aban-
doned, the American Museum Of Nat
ural History, New York, has been
rewarded by the discovery Of remains
of the mountain horse'' or Orohip-
pus. This discovery fills in the last
gap in the record which science has
long endeavored to make perfect.
The museum began its explorations
in 1901 under the direction of Pro-
fessor Henry F. Osborn, curator of
the Department of Vertebrate Pale
anthology, with a trip to the Big Horn
Basin of northern Wyoming. The
expenses were betrayed from a fund
contributed by. the late William C.
Whitney. At his death these spec
ial explorations had to cease, the
hunt for fossil horses is now carried
on in conjunction with that for other
fossil animals, until some equally
public-spirited horse lover comes for
ward to continue it distinetively.
The locality around Fort Bridger,
Wyoming, was carefully searched for
fossils, but particularly for the
mountain horse,' fragments of
which had been found and named by
Professor Marsh in 1872. Parties
sent out by the American Museum,
visited this region in 1898 and 1895,
and from 1908 to 1905. but in spite
of the most interchangeable efforts the
orohippus eluded the searchers. 1t
had begun to look as though the at
tempt to locate his skeleton would
have to be given up as hopeless, when
on the very last day of the final expe-
dition of 1905, just when the party
was about to return, the long looked
for remains were unearthed. These
consisted of the skull, backbone,
limbs and other parts of the skeleton
of the very stage wanted.
The find has not been publicly an
nounced heretofore, and it will be
some time before the museum has
ready its exhibit, showing every stage
of horse evolution, beginning when

was about the size of an Irish terrier.
The museum has already classified
the fossils of the horse previously
found IN various localities in the
western part of the United States
and will thus be able now to place
before the public a complete ocular
record of equine evolution from the
early days of the Eocene period. esti-

Cuba Will BE There.

CUBA Will BE There.
There is no doubt the Cuban stu.
alton will come in for a great deal OF
discussion in both the senate and the
house, and the recent developments in
the infant republic will furnish the
topic of many pedantic speeches. The
present International status of Cuba
seems to be an enigma not only to
foreign governments, but to officials
of the United States as well, and the
international lawyers in congress will
try to strive to create some new ten
cts to fit the case.
il would not be surprising II some
OF the Democrats undertook to scold
the president for intervening in Gu
ban affairs, and seeking to re-estab-
lish the government on a more stable
foundation. But for every attack
made on him on this account two or
three champions will rise to defe I'd
his course.
Political Campaign Contributions.
The house will have to take up sew
eral matters that have been already
acted upon by the senate. One in
which considerable public interest has
been manifested in the last year or
two appertains to the question of cor
poration contributions to political
committees. A bill prohibiting cor
porations from giving money for cam
paign purposes was passed by the SEN
ate last spring, but in view of the fact
that both parties wanted to raise the
sinews of war for the recent congress
sional campaign, the measure was
hung up in committee.
Now that the election is over and
another will not be due for two years
the party leaders may have no COM
junction about having it reported
and passed. In this connection II is
quite likely that the house and like
wise the senate will also be called
upon to consider a measure requiring
in the matter OF campaign
contributions so that people may
know where the money came from
and how II was expended.

results, it will require financial as
sistance.
The association scheme OF financ-

II Is hoped that all business people

the association. BY a ready response
the association will be put in a posi-
ton to make the best possible use of
time andsmoney. Hence, every one is
urged tot promptly take membership
and assist the association In the
small sum requested for membership
and give the officers of the associa-
ton years trial TO see what can be
accomplished. Beyond any question
of doubt, most satisfactory results
will be obtained.

Seminary Girl Climbs Ont a
Window For Dance.
Some noe Steals Ladder and She Is
Left on the Ground With
Her Beau.
Young GALLANT PROPOSES

Denver Colo, Nov. "a What
can little girl do when she is lock.
ed out of seminary on a chilly
night and fears to knock at the door
for admission?
This is a question which Miss Ger.
trude Eckols asked herself not very
long aoosas she stood beneath the
window of her room. BY means of q
rope ladder she had taken her de-
parture from that room to Join heI
sweetheart, Robert LAGRANGE. He
had been so good and affectionate to-
wards her that she simply couldn't
refuse his invitation TO escort her to
a dance given by his college frater-
nifty He was student at Tetane uni
versity New Orleans. It was rare
treat for him to see his sweetheart
and il was seldom he saw her. Semi
nary rules are strict and they are
interspersed with many thou shalt
nots."
OF course II was out of the ques.
ton to obtain permission from the
dean to go TO the dance. That func-
tionary was so severe a diseipllnarian
that he was sometimes referred to by
the boys at the university near by as
boss of the hen house."
La Grange is a bold youth. He
sent word to Miss Eckols that 1t was
quite necessary that she should at
tend the ball with him. He provided
the means of escape. 1t was a ladder
of rope and at the proper time, when
all the seminary was quiet, and the
other girls were dreaming sweet
dreams Miss Eckols fastened an end
of the ladder to a bed post and quiz
city slipped out into the night. La
Grange was waiting and he took her
to the ball. Swiftly the hours passed
away, and then came the time for
the journey home.
Stricken with dismay were the
young couple when they observed
that the rope ladder had disappear
ed from the window. All the doors
were locked. Some one had played a
joke, IL such it might be called, upon
the fair young student. There was no
such. thing as a real ladder TO be
found in the neighborhood.
For the young lady there was Sc
rious trouble in sight, but Lagrange
being a man of resources and tact,
took wise view OF the situation. He
an excellent way out of the
difficulty. That was that they should
hasten to the nearest preachers
house and become man and wife
Miss Eekols thought the idea a
good one. and so they were married
They arrived at the Warren Hotel in
this city last evening and registered
from New Orleans.
They dispatched announcements of
the wedding to their parents, but up
to last night had received no word
from them. In the event that forgive
ness is not forthcoming the young
couple will journey to San Francisco.
where the benedict has some friends.
"rll be a waitress, il necessary"
said Mrs. LAGRANGE.
"No. you won't" declared the
young husband, placing a manly arm
about his brides neck. 81 will do the
work in this family"

Philippine Tariff Will Be Dis
cussed Again.
Three Treaties Are Hung Up In Sen.
ate, One Regarding Dominican
Customs.
CUBA MUST BE CONSIDERED.

Washington, Nov. 81 The APP
preaching session of congress prom
Uses to be the busiest short session
the national lawmakers have had for
many year. Ordinarily the closing
session Is devoted almost exclusively
to the passage of the regular supply
bills. as the measures carrying APP
preparations for the support of the
government are called. But this year,
in addition to parceling out uncle
Sans" income among the various de-
partments, congress will have con-
siderable important legislation left
over from the long 1ession to COM
plete.
One of the unfinished acts of the
last congress relates TO the reduction
Of duties on import1tions from the
Philippine islands. Last session the
house passed such a measure, and 1t
cut down to 25 per cent. of the Ding
ley rates the duties on sugar. tobacco
and rice, and admitted all other arti.
Giles free. But its path was blocked
when il reached the senate. a major
ity Of the Philippine committee being
arrayed against II. The chairman.
therefore, never reported it. and II
still remains in committee.
The administration, particularly
Secretary Taft, who regards the Fili-
pinos as his children, will make a de-
termined effort this winter to induce
the senate to come to the relief of the
islands. Possibly compromise will
have to be affected on a basis of so
per cent. of the Dingley rates, but
distasteful as that would be to Mr..
Taft. he would regard II as better
than nothing.

Three Treaties Hung Up.

Hung up In the SENATE are three
treaties that have been entered into
by the administration One of these is
the arrangement by which the United
States has been collecting the customs
Of the turbulent government of Santo
Domingo in order that certain foreign
creditors may be paid what rightfully
belongs to them, and thereby save the
Dominicans from bombardment.
The senate has been baking on this
treaty for two years, but this govern
ment has gone on collecting the rev.
enues, and by this time nearly enough
money has been set aside to satisfy
the claims of the Europeans.
The fight against the ratification
will be renewed but the president is
hopeful 1t will not prove successful.
The two other treaties relate to the
definition of the political status of the
Isles of Pines, off the coast of Cuba,
and to the new convention entered in
to by European powers with respect
to Morocco.
