THE EARTH's CHANGES.
What the Fossil Remains of Plants
and Animals Tell U.s.

There was time when even the
polar regions doomed with many of
the splendid and varied forms of life
that now adorn the tropics
The fossil remains of these ancient
forms preserved in the bosom of the
rocks carry US back perhaps millions
of years in the earth's history and
show clearly what wonderful revolu-
tons the surface of the globe has un
dergone since the first plants and the
first animals appeared upon it
Who would think of meeting a rhi-
noceros nowadays on the prairies of
northwestern Canada unless perhaps
travelling menagerie should pass that
way? Yet at one time. as discoveries
of recent years prove, creature close
ly resembling the rhinoceros of India
and Africa dwelt in that now compar-
atively cold. snowy and barren region.
Remains of these extinct ancestors
of an animal that in our day thrives
only in the tangled tropical forests and
under the hot equatorial sun have ben'
found buried in the Canadian rocks.
where now the cold blasts of winter
blow over treeless plains and sweep
the tanks of ice incrusted mountains.
The riinoceros of that remote age
was no less formidable u beast than
its descendants. for the skull of one OF
the skeletons discovered is three feet
long, while some of its teeth are four
inches across.
The fossil remains OF many other
forms of animals have been found In
the same region within recent years.

adopted. The text of this is as follows:

LORIMER TO SPEAK
IN OWN BEHALF
Vote Oh Unseating OF Senator
Not Likely To-day.

Senators who believe that Senator Lori
mer holds his seat as the result Of
bribery will not permit him to conclude
the debate when he addresses the Senate
to-day in his own behalf.
Not only will Senator Lorimer not be
permitted to conclude the debate in his
case, but his speech in defense of him
self is to be made the subject of a grill
ing from one of the Senators opposed
to his continuance as a member of the
Senate.
Early in the day yesterday Senator
Burrows, the chairman of the Senate
Committee on Privileges and Elections.
announced that he would ask for a vote
on the resolution before the Senate as
soon as Senator Lorimer concluded his
remarks to-day, though he afterwards
said that all Senators who were pre-
pared to speak on the case would have
an opportunity to be heard.
Just before adjournment of the Senate
yesterday afternoon Senator La Toilette
gave notice that the speech of Senator
Lorimer is to be analyzed by the opposi-
tior. The Wisconsin Senator said:
Since Senator Lorimer has not seen fit
TO oner his testimony before the Senate
committee that investigated this case, he
ought not to be permitted-and I shall
protest if he does-to offer testimony in
writing and conclude this debate without
some members of the Senate reviewing
what he may submit
This statement from Senator La Fol-
lette was regarded as formal notice that
a vote will not be had on the Lorimer
case to-day as was anticipated by SEN
ator Burrows. There are four or five
Senators who still desire to be heard,
and il is hardly possible that they can
get through before Thursday or possibly
Friday.
Senator Beveridge, who spoke five hours
yesterday in favor of unseating the ILL.,
nois Senator, did not conclude. He ex-
poets to follow Senator Lorimer. whose
that he would address the
Senate to-day gives him right OF way.
Senators Gallinger and Bradley will be
heard In behalf of Senator Lorinrer. while
Senators Stone and La Toilette will ad-
vocate the adoption of the resolution to
unseat him.
Lorimer's supporters seem confident
now that he viii be able to retain his
seat

YESTERDAY IN CONGRESS.
SENATE.

Senator Bcreridse, Of IDdiana, spoke for over
four hours in the Senate, attacking the right Of
Senator William Lorimer, Of Illinois, to his seat
in the Senate. The Senator from Indiana had
not concluded his remarks and was given per
mission to resume his speech Wednesday after
Senator Lorimer has concluded. The discussion
in the Senate on the Lorimer indicated an
early vote probably before adjournment We'd
nesday. Senator Burrows. chairman Of the Com
mittee on Privileges and Elections. who sub
mitted the report unfolding Mr.. Lorimer's right
to his seat, announced that the friends of Sena-
tor Lorimer would be ready for a vote imme-
diately after that Senator had concluded his
speech.
The Finance Committee Of the Senate held
hearings most of the day, listening to protests
against Canadian reciprocity. Among those heard
were the representatives Of the National Grange
and of about a dozen State oranges. all Of whom
declared that Canadian reciprocity would be det-
rmental TO the interests Of the farmers near the
Canadian border. Representative A. 2. Gardner,
Of Massachusetts,. given a bearing before the

lation as detrimental TO the interests of New

tinued Wednesday.

A REASONABLE PLEA
FOR The STOMACH
If Your Stomach Is Lacking in Di-
geStive Power, Why Not Help

Especially When 1t Costs
Nothing to Try?

ment OF digestive agents, such as are
naturally at work in the stomach Sci
entitic analysis shows that digestion re-
QuireS pepSin, nitrogenOus ferments, and
the secretion Of hydrOchloriC acid When
your food fails to digest il is proof posi-
tive that some of these agents are lack
ing in your digestive apparatus.
StuartS Dyspepsia Tablets contain
nothing but these natural elements nee
essary to digestion, and when placed at
teStines supply what these organs need.
They stimulate the gastric glands and
gradually bring the digestive organs back
to their normal condition
subjected to critical chemical tests at
home and abroad and are found to con-
tain nothing but natural digestives.

had been consulted as to the effects
within his State upon local interests OF
the new reciprocal agreement.
But the most interesting witness OF
the day was Aaron Jones. of South
Bend. Ind, who for eight years was
master of the National Grange. and
who is now the head of the Indiana
Grange and chairman of the legislative
committee of the national organization.
This witness declared that the farmers
had been the main support Of the pro-
tective tariff policy in this country Tor
many years; that without their support
no Republican President could have
been elected; and that if they were now
to be rewarded for their devotion to the
protection system by free trade in their
products. then they would cease follow
ing the Republican party.
i cast my first vote for Abraham
Lincoln" said Mr.. Jones. and / have
voted for every Republican candidate
for President since then. / voted for
them because l believed in the protec-
tive tariff, but if we are TO have free
trade for the farmer, then, by the eter-
nal. We will have it for everybody be-
fore another two years roll by. If the
Republican party goes back on me and
makes it impossible for me to carry on

vide the necessary comforts for my

Has Caused Drop in Hay.
Mr.. Jones brought with him about
twenty representatives of farmers asso-
Citations. He had present to be heard in
protest against the Canadian reciprocity
twelve masters of State oranges. Among
those heard in opposition to reciprocity
were n. J. Bachelor, ex-governor of
New Hampshire. and master Of the Ma
tional Grange: F. N Godfrey, master of
the New York Grange, and officers of
State oranges of Delaware, Michigan,
Ohio, Maryland, West Virginia, Maine,
and other States.
Mr.. Godfrey, of Olean, n. Y, testified
that only two out of a hundred local
oranges in New York were in favor of
Canadian reciprocity. Ninety-eight had
adopted resolutions opposing it. He de-
clared that since the Canadian trade
agreement had been announced the price
of hay had dropped s. in New York. The
dairy farmers, he declared, felt that the
Canadian agreement would be the death
blow to the dairying interest in New
York. The witness continued to refer to
the Canadian agreement as a treaty.
Senator Cullom sought to correct him by
suggesting that it was a bill, not a
treaty.
It's a trade" replied Mr.. Godfrey.
Not a trade-a give away" said Sena-
tor McCumber.
