GREAT HARRINGTON, Jan.
1.-THE marriage of Christopher
Sheldon, a wealthy resident of

|of the brides brother, Fred HUI

APES Of STONE ACE MAY HAVE
MADE TOOLS, SAYS SCIENTIST

BERLIN, an. 11.-Before the
Archaeological society, Privy
Councillor Professor Albrecht
Penck, a day or two ago, deliv-
cred a lecture on the question of
How Old Is Mani"
Some of the statements he made
are causing much discussion in
scientific circles, particularly the
professors supposition that the
man-apes of the Ice and Stone
Ages may have made the tools and
weapons found in various parts of
the world in caves.
The lecturer gave the following
dates:
The beginning of the Bronze
Period was 1900 years B. G.
The time of the more recent"
Stone Age antedates the Bronze
Period $500 years. During this
period man used tools and weap-
ons that were polished.
The first Stone Period antedat-
ed the more recent Stone Period
from 10000 to $4,000 years.
1t follows then that some 80
600 years passed between the Ice
Period and the present age.
AS to the beginning of the first
Ice Period, it may antedate our
own age 100000 years, 1000
years of which can be proved.
The lecturer produced stone
cone 100000 years old, and ar
gued that the cone maker must
have enjoyed long period of
comparative civilization and prog
ress.
"The Rigi Mountain in Switzer-
land belongs to the Tertiary Peri
3D." continued the lecturer. "It
was formed 100000 or 3,000,-
900 years ago. At about that
period man lived on earth, to-
gether with a number of giant
mammals that have since died
out"
The lecturer caused sensation
by this statement: "Since there is
evidence of improvement in every
natural kingdom since those far
away ages, why is it that man

reached it's present high state OF
culture only in comparatively re-
cent times?"
''Is it necessary" continued the
lecturer, 'to assume that zoologi-
|cal development and that of civili-
cation keep pace with each 9TH
err"
But the lecturer fairly took his
hearers breath away when he
stated that the man-ape of science
might have been the manufacture
er and user of certain tools, i'm
plements and arms found in the
caverns of France, Germany and
America.
Professor Herman Klaatsch OF
the University of Breslau produced
a number of stone implements dis
covered in Australia, together
with the prehistoric kangaroos OF

Istrued. Before I had finished,
however, l had to spur my wits
with brandy, and within an hour
1 was tossing In high fever, to
all intents and purposes a help
less raving lunatic.
l was dying, so they said: two
physicians and my nurse-Marion
LIE Mar. They informed me, very
gravely and gently, and the explf-
cit motive of their confidence was
that l might have time to make
my peace with heaven, and settle
my affairs with men. 1t was easy
to believe them. l was so feeble.
When the men of medicine had
gone, Marion surprised me by
throwing herself down upon her
knees beside my bed and bursting
into the most passionate fit of
weeping 1 have ever witnessed. AS
I could not calm her, l occupied
the time of her abandonment in
considering how l might provide
best for her future. | thought of
a will, but dimissed the idea, be-
cause of its publicity. Marion
could not afford to advertise her
whereabouts to our enemies. l de-
cided at last to withdraw all my
money and the jewels from the
bank and give them to her while
l lived. When. therefore, she
grew tranquil, made her write
letter and a check. both of which,
with exhausting effort, contrived
to sign. But she resolutely de-
clined to leave me for moment,
so was compelled to send a wait
err on the errand. He was, by
good chance, an honest man, and
an hour later my bed was strewn
with bank notes and with flashing
gems.

NO SKATING
ON THE BAY

There will not be any skating
on the bay.
The floating ice and debris COW
cred with snow which came down
the Puyallup river caused some
persons to think the bay was
freezing over and today the wealth
erman has been deluged with
questions from anxious skaters
who want to know If the chances
are good for skating on the bay.
They are not.
Salt water will freeze at 27H
degrees and it has been colder
than that for a week but there has
been no sign of ice ON the bay. It
might freeze If the tides could be
stopped but with rise and fall
of from 10 to Is feet every day in
the water level there will be no
freezing.

DISCOVERED YEARS
ONLY NEW COMET

DES MONIES, Ia, Jan. IL
That the old proverb of "early to
bed" must be reversed to bring
success in some instances has been
proven in the case of Prof. D. w
Morehouse of Drake university in
this city, who sat up late nights
., Prof. Morehouse, an astrono-
fner, discovered the only new
comet found in the heavens this
year, .and it is known as "Cometo,
1905" He has just received word
from Camille Flammarion, presi-
dent of the observatory of France,
that he has been elected to that
society. Prof. Morehouse has also
received medal for merit from
the Astronomical society of the
Pacific coast.
He made the discovery Sept. /,
1908, at the Yerkes observatory,
Lake Geneva, Wis. The new COM
ct is remarkable because, while II
is visible to the naked eye, it is
hard to recognize because OF the
wonderfully rapid changes which
take place in its tail.
