CARUSO DECORATED
WITH CHEAP ORDER
Some Say It's Britain's
Fourth of July Jar.

LONDON. July 4-The comforting of
the Royal Victorian order on Enrico
Caruso, the noted tenor, by King Ed
ward. is regarded in some quarters here
as the answer of England 10 the abuse
heaped upon the italian singer IN New
York on account Of his monkey house
adventure The facJ that the announce
ment was made on the national holiday
is significant
Another view, however. is less fat
terinE TO Caruso. The Royal Victorian
order, in fact. is not highly regarded
in England Whitaker's Peerage, in
describing the order. says Ii was de-
signed as a recognition Of services to
Queen Victoria, but since her death 1t
has increased enormously until now
additions are made every few days.
The Royal Victorian order Is about
the lowest honor the King could con-
Ter on Caruso, and persons who do not
Iionize the Italian singer take the view
that King Edward felt constrained TO
show some recognition to Caruso, but
got out of the affair as easily as posi-
bic.

THE NUMBER OF ANIMALS
Recent Attempts to Tabulate the
 Beasts That Perish.

Every now and then some natural. ist endeavors 10 make an approximate numerical count of known animal species. This kind of attempt is sure ly not without interest. but it must be acknowledged that it's results are very uncertain. We are far from knowing all species. and there is yet delight ful prospect ahead for those who love systematic zoology and for zoologists who bestow mutual honors by giving each others names to some animal hitherto unknown.
 As Nurmann remarked to a recent meeting of naturalists at the museum, to which he presented his Catalogues Mammalian" the species of rodents known in 1880 were only 970 in mum. Der; now they are 1900 The num- Der has thus. at least. doubled in 27 years. The number of living species of this creature now known is about 1,500, divided among 160 genera. This family is the most numerous of the class of mammalia.-Wissen fur Ale.

WOMAN HAS HORN ON HEAD
Peculiar Appendage, Measuring Five Inches Long, Removed by Physician.

Hamilton. O.-An extraordinary and fully authenticated medical case has developed at Gratis, village in Pretle county. ten miles from Hamil- ton. 1t is reported by Dr. R. c. Law renee and subsantiated by several Hamilton doctors.
 A woman 65 years old in the vii lage developed a horn on her fore head. It grew to the length of two inches and waa attached to the skull Some two years ago she struck . door and broke one inch from the bony growth. It again developed more rap idly than before and attained a length in diameter at the base and tapereI to point.
 Dr. Lawrence recently sawed of the entire horn, which in every way resembles a rams horn. He confirms the statement in all details. and has exhibited the growth to many Hami! ton physicians. who pronounce 1t a genuine horn. Tie woman's general health is not affected.

Her body was a mass of sores, and her little face was being eaten away. Her ears looked as if they would drop of.
