UNABLE TO EXPLAIN HORNS
Scientists at a Loss to Account for
Growth Which Sometimes APP
pears on Head of Horse.

One Of the strangest freaks of ma
ture is the horse with horns. Such
horses are fOaled occasionally, and
have provided a rich field of specula-
ton for scientists. Certainly the pres
ence Of the horns would seem to indi-
cate that in some far-away period this
animal was SO provided by nature.
In most cases where horses have
been fOaled with horns, the horns were
upon the forehead, and usually three
or four inches long. But colt near
Rogersville, Tenn, the existence Of
which is on record, had a curved horn
just below the aperture of the right
eye. This is approximately the same
position from which sprOut the horns
Of many animals whose horns have a
full growth.
Despite this evidence Of a return to
some earlier state of development, no
trace of their presence can be found
on any Of the skulls of horses which
belonged to other ages. Thousands
Of these skulls have been uncovered
In many lands. The oldest goes back
just 100000 years, and is Of size
to indicate that the horse Of that time
was no larger. than, good-sized dog.

Prehistoric Mans Intelligence.

Some years ago the remains Of a
prehistoric man were found in central
Europe in a geological stratum that
showed that he existed at least 100000
years ago, and probably more. His
physical formation, especially the
shape and size Of the skull, left no
doubt, according to scientists, that he
had been a well-develOped human be-
ing with a creditable degree of intel
ligence. He did not show the brain
possibilities of modern man, it is true,
but probably he did not need them,
since it must have required less intel
lectual power to dodge the giant dino
saurs and other small-headed mem
bers of the Sauropoda family of that
day, alarming though they might look,
than to escape death from the preda-
tory and terrifying automobile Of to-
day

BRITISH WIN
ANCRE VILLAGE
and $50 men
Australian Troops Storm Town
North of MorIancourt-Take
Twenty Machine Guns.
YANkS REPULSE Three RAIDS
Germans Driven Back In PIcardy Seer
tor and Twice on the Lorraine
Front Enemy Continues
Preparations for Drive.

London, May O.-Ville-sur-Ancre,.
to the north of Molancourt In the
Amiens region, has been stormed and
captured by Australian troops, accord
ing to the official British statement.
Not only was this village retaken but
800 Germans, nearly two companies,
and 70 machine guns fell into the
hands Of the British.
While the operation really was only
magnif1ed raid it was carried out in
the early hours Of the morning in the
same dashing style that has character
lied the fighting Of the Australian
forces south Of the Somme. The Brit
1sh statement says: "Our position In
this locality has been improved" The
Australian losses are announced as
slight.
The Berlin report, evidently refer
ring to this engagement, said it failed
''sanguinarily," and does not admit the
loss Of Ville-sur-Ancre.
Wreck Three Raids.
American troops. according to Gen
eral Pershing's communique, repulsed
German infantry raid In the Picardy
sector at night.
In the Lorraine sector hostile raid
ing party attempted to reach the
American lines, but was driven off. A
few hours later the enemy tried 1t
again, with about twenty-five men, but
was decisively defeated, leaving one
dead in the American trenches.
Along other parts Of the French bat
tlef1eld there were numerous raids.
Northwest of Albert and near Hamel
British raiders captured both prison
ers and machine guns. The Germans
attempted a raid northeast Of Bethune,
but their formation was broken up be-
fore reaching the British wire.
The German report says the British
attacked with several companies near
Halluch, south of La Bassee, but were
epulsed.
Artillery dueling continues all along
the line, but more violent at some
points. Between Arras and Albert,
Berlin says, the German troops were
subjected to violent fire."
Foe Still Preparing.
Although the Germans in Flanders
and Picardy are keeping up incessant-,
ly their preparations for resumption
Of their drive, there is as yet no indi-
cation that an attack On a large scale
is imminent.
Large numbers of Americans daily
are being brought to the front, ready
for immediate service, or are re-en-~
forcing the units under intensive train
ing Immediately behind the battle
line

"The best idea ! can give Of it,"
said an engineer, sis to nken it to
those paper windmills which spin on
the end Of stick and which are sold
to children in the streets. A turbine,
in fact, is like series of those re-
volving wheels Hxed one behind the
other, only instead Of being turned by
the wind it is revolved by jets of
steam. The turbine wheels turn a
shaft inside a cylinder, in the In
terror Of which are fixed number Of
stationary blades which project into
the spaces between each wheel. The
purpose of these blades is to catch the
steam and direct it on to the wheels
at an angle where it will exert the
most force. AS the steam enters the
cylinder it is caught by the station
ary blades and DETECTED on to the
blades OF the first wheel, which are
set turning. The steam then passes
to the next until all the wheels are set
whirling and the ship is driven through
the water"

Coffee and SIeepIessn ess.

That coffee drunk in the evening
tends to cause sleeplessness is well
known. Doctor Sajous analyses the
many effects of caffeine on the nervous
and circulatory systems and shows
that it's sleep-preventing effect is duo
to dilation Of the blood vessels of the
brain, stimulation Of the heart action,
increased blood pressure and a prob
able tendency directly to impede the
flow Of blood from the brain to the
skin and other peripheral structures,
which seems to play an important role
In inducing sleep. And the brain tends
to remain overcharged with blood even
after the effect Of the coffee on the
blood pressure has subsided.
