TRACE BACK TO JUNGLE FOWL.
Domestic Birds Come From East In
dia Stock.

Charles Darwin, in his animals
and Plants, says that all breeds OF
domestic fowls came ORIGINALLY from
one wild variety, known as the Jun
gle Fowl. whose home was in India,
from where it wandered or was car
ried over the East, there getting new
developments through matings. and
new characteristics by reason OF va
riations in climate, feeding, care. etc.
When any slight abnormality appear
ed, such as thick crest or frizzled
feathers, the bird was probably kept
as a breeder, out of pure love of nov
city. Or breeds would deteriorate
and show marked loss from the origi-
nal type. Or strange freak, say o!
feet or ear-lobe or an excess or toe,
would appear and would be finally
accepted as a new breed. The Ro-
mans, IS centuries ago, valued
bird with white ear lobes; also with
q fifth toe. Then nature stepped IN
occasionally, and, where some organ
or part was not used for long per-
iod, she simply abandoned it as
part of the bird-much as fish, born
and living in the Mammoth Cave,
have no eyes. They do not need eyes.
1t seems strange, but it is true,
practiced ages ago, and by barely
civilized races Of men. The Romans,
at the opening of the Christian era,
kept six or seven breeds of fowls. In
China in the fifteenth century. seven
varieties or breeds are recorded.
So the chicken is an old-time bird,
though it is not mentioned in the
Old Testament, nor figured on the
early Egyptian monuments. nor re-
ferred to by Homer, who lived about
900 B. c. 1t is first mentioned by
Aristophanes. a writer who lived in
the years between 400 and 500 B. {.
There seems to be much fog on the
whole subject, but our domestic
chicken probably was taken to Eu-
rope from China or India.
The fowl of today has little in COM
mon with the early Jungle Fowl,
either in appearance, voice, fertility
or habits. Under mans domestlca-
ton he has become more beautiful,
more fertile, improved in every way.
The early fowl was wild, a fighter,
and used it's wings more freely than
do it's successors. The game Of our
time has probably more of the same
characteristics with the Jungle Fowl
than any breed now existing.

Georgetown, May 1.-The George
town Times has a new editor. Until
two weeks ago Col. H. F. Oliver edit
ed this paper, and upon his retire
ment R. c. Davis, publisher, looked
after editorial work. A permanent
editor in the person of Capt. L. b.
Steele has been selected, and Capt.
Steele has entered upon his duties.
The selection is a happy one. Capt.

approached by trench which twists
around behind it. Moreover, the line
of the fire trenches is broken at in
tervals by traverses-alsot to protect
against possible enfilading- con-
nected by little semi-circular trenches
which skirt around the solid interval
of earth. But the way will be tor
tuous for other reasons. The whole
line of the two armies is tortuous be-.
yond the suspicious Of reader who
sees it twist a little along the from
tier, but suppose it will be straight
enough for half mile. Losses :tere
and gains there are partly cause Of
tnis, but much more is the TACT that
TIC whole series OF trenches is de-
veloped from a sk:llful use of natural
conditions. Sometimes the trench is
merely ditch which has been deep
ened. At other lines the ad::I:ation
of a pit or a hollow makes It 10 feet
deep, and the mer have to climb up
on ledges to fire out Of it. Here and
there the connecting trench becomes
tunnel, by having beer rooted in.
At other places a convenient bush
or hedge affords cover which has
enabled quite a little cavern 10 be
dug under it's protection.
Though the hardship is severe
enough, the men manage to make
themselves more comfortable than
might be supposed. They have char
coal braziers. which help to keep
them warm, and there is even talk
serious talk-of installing electric
light. The adjutant has made quite
a little Office of his "dug-out," and
pins up notes and orders and tele-
grams onto the clay wall in front OF
him. When the trenches have been
in existence long enough there is
communication everywhere, though
it is often difficult to squeeze by
and as for sleep-well, you can take
a little of that as soon as the Smelling
starts, for you know there will not
be an attack till that is over! The
only thing you can hardly anywhere
do is to stand up. If you try ii
ping" almost at once, and you are
lucky if you only get your face sput
tered with mud. And just out there
sometimes only so yards away
they are taking the same precaution:
about all Of US, and peeping with the
same curiosity. And between the
lines is so yards of ordinary field
where no one dare venture by day
and only at imminent danger b,
night. In that so yards is now lyin:
one of our officers, killed in las
nights attack. Tonight We hope t
get him back, but today we can bu
peep at him. His hand is hangin:
down, and on his wrist is his watch
It is still going, and from where W
are We can see the time.

DR.. RAUN|CK SCORES
FAMILY WASH RAG
Says It's in League With the
Undertaken; Bad as the
Public Towel

The family washrag and the under
taker are working a corporation trick
every day of the year is the belief of
DIR. John NJ. j. Raunick, city health
officer, who was discussing the many
crimes that the washrag is guilty of
committing.
"A family washrag should be just
as popular as a family tooth brush, -
DR.. Raunick went on to say.
The face and body scrubber used
so long in the many homes of this
city is responsible for many of the
deaths of past years, claims the city
health officer. AS a germ carrier and
producer of work for undertakers, he
believes that 1t has no equal.
The public towel was abolished. and
the family washrag should follow the
same route is his opinion, and an in
dividual washrag is just as bad If the
user is careless; damp, sour smell

Their Married Life

"It certainly has been raining" an
nounced Warren as they went out Of
the hotel a little after nine.
They had decided to look up a
cafeteria and go there for breakfast.
Helen had thought of the plan after
the price of their first meal at the
Castle House, and the cafeteria, a
typical western product. lured her
eager eyes with fascinating scents
and the fact that they had yet to
explore one.
Are you sure you remember the
placer" asked Louise. I am starv-
ing"
Eyes, it was about three blocks up
this way" declared Helen. hoping
vaguely that she was right.
Warren was sure to be cross If he
were kept too long without break
fast, and as she was the pioneer of the
party, she wanted things to be as
nice as she had prophesied
Here 1t is" she said. triumphant
ly. as they stopped before a bake
shop and lunch room.
They all swarmed through the
door and found themselves in a regu-
lar bakery. with rows of fascinating
cakes and salads ranged along the
counter and cold meat and breads on
different shelves. In the back there
was a dainty little restaurant where
place gave the party the feeling of a
haven we'll reached.
This is something like" said War
rem contentedly, as he slipped deli
cious coffee and ate waffles.
Helen could not help bridling a
little and when the bill was brought
they all gasped. The entire amount
was less than breakfast for one would
have been at the hotel.
Helen, I certainly hand II to you,"
said Bob. delightedly.
I'm so glad you are satisfied"
she said demurely.
And now what shall we do?"
How about you men going off
for yourselves this morning." sug-
gested Louise. ITO tell the truth. I
am so tired of sightseeing after that
zone yesterday that 1 don't want to
look at anything for a day at least"
And besides. we want to look at
some shops. l have several things
I want to buy" said Helen.
Can you beat it?" from Warren.
They don't want to look at any
ing's shopping. Leave 1t to wo-
man."
well. I'll tell you" said Bob,
Warren and I want to go up to
the Fair Grounds and go over the
Palace Of Machinery. We didn't any
more than see 1t yesterday and they
are going to get out an edition of the
paper on the printing press there. We
don't want to miss il.
"All right, we can shop and look
around and then meet you people
somewhere"
THE question is, where?"
Somewhere for lunch?" suggested
Helen.
"How about lunch at the Clin
House?" said Warren.

about 1880; then we can get out
there around l."
"A1l right, that will be fine. Come
on, Helen" and the two were off
walking leisurely up the street.
The morning passed quickly enough.
Helen bought a shirtwaist and they
both bought some very pretty col
lars. Louise needed some silk stock
ings. and they wandered through sew
eral hat shops and saw some advanc-
ed Fall models.
'Td love to buy a winter hat"
said Louise, pausing wistfully before a
aigrettes shooting off the side.
Now, don't be extravagant," said
Helen practically.
But 1 simply have to try this on, -
said Louise and suiting the
action to the word, she sat down be-
fore one Of the little tables and the
gray-haired saleswoman proceeded to
push the hat down over her hair in
the prescribed manner.
Louise took the hand glass and sur
veyed herself critically.
81 like the front view" she said
at length. but from the back it
looks queer"
TRY this one, madam" said the
woman, lifting out of the case a
smart little light tan hat with wings
of the same shade.
Wouldn't you like to try this one.
madam ?" said someone coming up
behind Helen, and before they had
left the shop, Helen and Louise each
owned a new Fall hat.
II wonder what the men will say"
said Helen.
Well go home now and wear
them out to lunch said Louise
.G-N-N hnN h Il
covered the distance to the hotel and
freshened up for lunch, Warren and
Bob had appeared.
Warren did not talk extravaganza
as Helen expected. and both hats
were duly commented upon. BY the
time they had reached the Cliff
House, all four were in excellent
spirits.
Helen was entranced with their
table pushed into the alcove of the
window overlooking the harbor and
the sea.
Good thing we brought umbrel-
las" said Bob, but Louise and Helen
were too busy exclaiming over the
view to hear him.
mo wonder they call it the Golden
Gate" said Helen. I'm the sunlight
it must be gorgeous"
The seals on the rocks in the har-
Dor performed beautifully for the edi-
fication of the foursome, diving and
lashing around much to Helen's de-
light.
1t was a very merry time, and
Helen thought to herself that she
had been more than fortunate in
avoiding any unpleasantness since
they had left home. She wondered
how long it would be before Warren
got angry about some trivial thing,
and then she scolded herself severe
ly for borrowing trouble again when
there was no reason for 1t. Perhaps
the whole trip would be pleasant
she sincerely hoped so.

ROUEN DUCKS

Rouen Ducks originated in France,
but English breeders developed their
present great size and perfection Of
plumage. They are probably the larg-
est of all ducks, the brakes Weighing
to IL pounds and the females, to
10 pounds.
AS a table fowl, the Rouen Duck is
highly esteemed. The meat is fine
favored, surprising that of most
other breeds; but because the Rouen
does not grow as fast as the Pekin,
the latter breed is preferred by those
who grow ducks for market.
Rouen Ducks are hardy, thriving
under ordinary conditions and doing
best where they have a range of wood
land and water.

''Birth of a.Nation'
Special to The Telegraph

Philadelphia. Sept 4. Director Por-
ter is going to do his best to stop the
production of THE Birth of a Nation
BY his orders police tonight will be
drawn up in front of the Forrest
theater.
Unless the director is enjoined by
the courts, the police will not allow the
film to be shown. The director last
night said that he feared serious dis
turbances at the initial production of
the much-discussed picture.
1t is understood that the manage
ment of the Forrest theater and the
producers of the picture play to-day
will ask the courts to enjoin the direu-
tor from preventing the showing of the
film.
