Toads' Matching Places.


Every tiny toad lays a stupendous
number of eggs. A scientist received
11,545 eggs from one toad, necessary
fertility, since the chances of an egg
developing into toad are less than
one in a thousand. Within two weeks
after the eggs are laid the young tad
poles begin to appear and feed first
on their gelatinous envelope. Next the
Shiny deposits common to ponds and
swamps are attacked. Steadily grow
the young wrigglers until their bodies
enlarge to the size Of thumb nails by
the end of June. The long tail now is
absorbed and the legs develop. They
begin to hop on the bank and disperse,
never to return save In the breeding
season. It is at the spring Of the year
that the toads awake from their win
ter sleep below the rocks and scrub.
They often have been literally frozen
stiff, but they return to life as healthy
as ever and on the first balmy night
migrate toward the nearest breeding
pond Usually this is the old home
stead where they were born, for the
toad is domestic animal and will
travel a mile or more for the sake of
returning to the place Of its Matching.

IUsTlFIEs REMOVAL OF SOLDIERS

IUsTIFIEs REMOVAL OF SOLDIERS
President Submits to Senate More EVI.
dence of Brownsville ARRAY.
Washington. Jan. Is. - President
Roosevelt sent to the senate a special
message regarding the Brownsville
incident, which gives the additional
evidence collected by Assistant AttOr-
ney General Purdy and Major Block
som, who were sent to Texas by the
president to investigate the affair.
/ The president submitted with his mes
Eage various exhibits, including maps
Of Brownsville and Fort Brown, BAN
doleer, SO empty shells, seven ball
cartridges picked I'D in the streets
a few hours after the shooting; three
steel-jacketed bullets and some scraps
of the castings of other bullets picked
out of the houses into which they had
been fired.
The president declares that the ev-
idence is positive that the Outrages Of
August IS were committed by some Of
the colOred troops that have been dis
missed, and that some or all of the
members of the three companies of
the 25th infantry had knowledge
of the deed and have shielded
the guilty persons. The negro
troops are referred to by the presi
dent in his message as midnight
assassins," and he declares that very
few, if any, of the soldiers dismissed
without honor" could have been ignO-
rant of what occurred That part
of the order which bars the soldiers
from all civil employment under the
government is revoked by the pfesi-
dent This clause, the president says,
was lacking in validity. The discharg-
ed troops. however, will be forever
barred from re-enlisting in the army
or navy, and as to this the president
says that there is no doubt of my
constitutional and legal power"
The president reiterates his former
statement that the facts not only war
ranted his action, they demanded it,
and made such an order imperative.
The failure to take the dismissal ac-
ton would have found him false to
his duty to the nation.

KIRKMAN MUST WAIT.
Judge Pollock Will Hand Down a
Written Opinion.

The application for a writ of habeas
corpus on the part of eX-Captain George
w. Kirkman, formerly of the 18th infan-
try. u. S. A, was heard before Judge
Pollock in the United States district court
yesterday afternoon who refused to make
known his decision following the argu-
ment.
His opinion will not be ready for some
two or three days and at the time when
it is handed down it will be written.
1t was rather expected that the decision
might be made known yesterday and the
announcement to the contrary came some
what in the nature of surprise.
THE writ of habeaS corpus is highly
perogative," said Judge Pollock. ANY
ruling of first instance, and it happens
that this will be such ruling, should be
carefully made. L am inclined to write
something on the subject because it is of
such vast Importance. I am going to de-
vote myself to it for the next two or
three days.
In making his plea for cumulative
construction of the sentence Judge ]. S.
West, assistant United States district at
torney said: This ruling of the judge
advocate general and the procedure of
the military courts has grown up a great
deal like the common law. This ruling
has grown up to be a custom to such
degree that It is the bone and sinew of
military courts. 1t must be governed by
the facts of its own nature. Weight
should be paid to the long term of admin
istrative practice in which this ruling has
held
f. T. Harper, attorney for Kirkman,
contended that it was not precedent, that
the question of the ruling had only come
up three times in "a years and therefore
it could not be called precedent.
