Find New Kind Of Animal.

Captain Philips, writing from Brit
ish Ruanda, in the Tanganyika terri
tory, states he has shot a specimen OF
an hitherto unidentified species of
duiker. The animal is about the size
of large goat, and is known as an
eppo or empuyi by the natives, to
whom it is in a way sacred as being
the totem-beast of Musinga, the now
reigning chief or mwami or the coun-
try of Ruanda, over the greater part
of which a mandate was recently
given TO Belgium by the peace con-
ference.
The eppo lives In the bamboo forests
of Mount Sabine and other mountain
forests, and seldom comes into open
country. 1t often takes refuge in the
low and broad forks of large trees.
The creature has a stumpy tail, oribi
horns, and marsh hooves; in color it
is a rufous black. and has a bright
yellow stripe along about half of its
backbone. In the case of the present
specimen, which was, apparently,
healthy, part of the back was nearly
bald of hair.-London Times.

The word consul is of Latin origin,
being derived from the verb consuio,
| consider. As the name of an oface
1t also had fits origin in Rome In the
early days of the republic.
The constitution of that republic
was democratic beyond anything we
know today. The source of all power
was the people. They elected the ex-
ecutive magistrates and the judges,
and they enacted the laws. not through
chosen representatives, but by direct
action in an assembly of the whole
people called the comitia. They had
two chief executive officers of equal
rank, elected each year, who were at
the head of the work of governing.
These were called consuls. In the end
corruption and recurring periods of an
archy broke down the government,
and an autocracy grew up, but which
for years preserved many of the forms
of the dead democracy. For five CEN
turtles under the empire there were
eonsuls, but they were without any
real power. As title of an office the
word consul is still in use. Today
a consul is a representative or his
country's commercial interests in
foreign country. The political repre-
sentative is the ambassador.

AT THE REPUBLIC TONIGHT

One OF the most striking personali-
ties on stage and screen is Miss Doris
Keane, who will be seen at the Re
public Theatre tonight in the wonder
ful drama, Romance" written by ed
ward Sheldon, author of The Boss, +"
Salvation Nell" and a host of other
successes.
1t was some few years ago that this
striking personality came TO the ard
ent attention of dramatic critics, and
in short she was climbing rapidly to
the top of the ladder until today she
Is recognized as Americas greatest
emotional actress. This personality
was forcibly given to the lovers OF the
stage when she portrayed the role OF
Sonia Kritehnofe, in "Arsene Lupin,
and In that character 1t was so in evil
dGnce that il swayed her audience
long before she spoke single word.
This is undoubtedly the greatest natu-
raj gift any actress can possess, for ii
appeals TO all audiences and at once
aroases that sympathetic bond which
places tho audience in accord. No
matter what sort of a role such a
Yerson acts, il universally gains heart
sympathy Miss Keane, equipped as
she is with this wonderful unknown
quality known as magnetism, has won

TO REVIVE HOME INDUSTRY
Good Work Done by knitters During
the War Has Given Impetus to
New Movement.

What was accomplished by the vast
volunteer army of knitters during the
war il one of the creditable facts in
the history of the world upheaval
through which civilization has been
passing. says the ST. Louis Globe Dem
ocrat. But for the millions of devoted
women who kept the needles flying the
horrors of the trenches would have
been still more frightful and deadly.
The achievements of the knitterS have
suggested the organization in New
York of a society for the revival of
home industry and domestic art. Its
first move is to gather all the spinning
wheels within reach and look up prac-
tical instructors in the use of house
hold implement that had become but
an antique piece of furniture. Man.
kind needs weavers as well as plow-
men, and spinning at home is one OF
the oldest forms of industry. In the
cabins of American pioneers the spin
ming wheel was necessity, and kept
busy in what, by stretch of imagi-
nation, were called spare hours. Those
were the days of homespun textiles
because often no others were TO be
had

IN western China. there is very large

turned to the great face, which has

He thought of the colossi at Thebes
and the Sphinx. Scared and ruined
and defaced by the hand of man and
the effects of time, they are little bet

far in the west of China sits this old
Buddha, unnoticed and almost un-
