theory that both these animals had already then
become quite extinct In western Europe
In the sixteenth century, when Europe, so far
art concerned, had at last been aroused
from its medieval stupor by the invention OF
printing, and extraordinary demand had
sprung up for pictorial matter illustrating
cent exploration of worlds and the various
forms of the chase, there produced quite
number of pictures of the aurochs by artists,
very few of whom had set eyes upon live

Hirschvogel (born in Nurnberg about 1503) who

connection with the aurochs, for he was absolute

years In Florence (from 1853 to 16O5) produced
a drawing of aurochs engaged in terrific
struggle in an arena where he was matched
against lion, two wolves and a bear This

the twenty odd ancient pictures of the aurochs

logic OF General Mills is conclusive and
overwhelming. He shows that any in

throughout the world and especially in
Europe, has been the result of his ex.

That was humiliation to German
pride and German effectiveness, which
called for immediate investigation, and
for change if the facts were found
as alleged. And now 1t IS reported
that Germany has decided 70 provide
her army with new artillery. If so,
France will no doubt consider that to
be an immense compliment to her
Creusot cannon and a confession that
the French guns are better than the
Krupp guns Of Germany.
OF course. the Germans will not ad-
init that this is the cause Of tho change,
even though they make such change.
They will claim that the change is
made in pursuance Of the advance Of
military science, and Germany's desire
to keep in the lead OF all nations. And
this explanation will also be true

France can congratulate themselves

THE WASTE OF TIME.

The waste Of time involved in the in.
activity of one house of Congress while
the other is busily engaged has at.
tracted the attention of newspaners
and publicists generally a conspicu.
Gus instance of this waste of time is
evident at the present extra session.
The House devoted its sessions for a
considerable time to the perfecting and
passing OF the revised tariff law. While
that was being done, the Senate was
IDLE. And now that the Senate has the
tariff bill in hand, the House is idle.
At the same time, there has been an
evident purpose on the part of the ad.
mlnistration to press the passage of n
currency bill (now in committee) which
might ease off the business situation
IN case of any trouble arising, such as
arose IN 1894 upon the passage of the
Wilson German tariff law in the sec.
ond administration of President Cleve.
land
This currency law might have been
introduced and acted upon by the Sen.
ate, while the House was acting on
the tariff revision. But that was not
done, and the Senate remained idle
during that time. Now il is proposed
to have the House take up the currency
bill, but this proposition is clearly at
a disadvantage as compared with what
would have been the case had the Sen.
ate passed the currency bill and sent
it down to the House.
There Is pending also in the Senate

significance OF them. and the peril Of
running against the declarations of the
German Emperor.
AS General Mills points out, the en-
comiums which Mr. Carnegie applies
TO the German Emperor for his weighty
position in support OF peace in fact
destroy tho very arguments that Car
ncgie himself habituallv makes rs
against war ornaments. For. since the
German Emperor is able to speak de

military strength, the lesson IS that

10th TO deliver an attack upon us,
Mr. Carnegie is evidently occupying
a false position in his words of praise
OF the German Emperor as "the lord
of peace" for he is the lord OF peace
only because of his strength and power
as lord of war.
The lesson is directly the reverse Of
the inculcatious OF Mr.. Carnegie when
he cries out against war armamonts,
for if the great lord of peace in Eu-
rope is so because of his military
strength. others will wish to be so for
the like reason, and because safety
clearly lies in ample preparation, And
thus the Carnegie decrying of military
armaments is made both illogical and
impossible as an argument for peace,
