FINDS SECRET OF HIS ORIGIN
Natives of Guam EnIighten Marinei
Disagree With the Theories Put
Forward by Darwin.

The theory that he had sprung from
some remote protoplasmic organism,
that his twenty-times-great-
was a wlre-haired baboon in the wilds
of Abyss;nia and other near-Darwinian
monstrosities, were all regarded by
Sergeant John Burrows of the marine
corps as so much bunk" Still, his
mind was never at rest.
The sergeant re-enlisted after the
war and was ordered to Guam.
The other day letter was received
at the marine corps recruiting head
quarters. 1t came from Sergeant Bur-
rows in Guam.
"At last" he stated, II have discov-
cred where my ancestors have come
from"
The sergeant explained that natives
Of the island had enlightened him. In
accounting for the origin of man, they
said that everything in the world was
derived from a certain rock on the
island of Guam, which first became
human, then a stone, and gave birth to
all men. From this island men were
scattered all over the world. They
forgot their language and talked like
fools without understanding one an
other nor knowing what was said."-

PART OF BUILDING STANDING
Famous coIonnade Row, in New York
Erected in 1888, Has Not En-
tirely Disappeared.

On the menu card of a restaurant
in New York this is printed: with
in these historic walls were sheltered
Dickens, Bryant Washington Irving,
a President of the United States (John
Tyler and many other distinguished
patrons" The statement Is not eX-
aggerated. Part of Colonnade row,
a beautiful structure erected nearly
a century ago, still stands, and Joseph
COnte's restaurant occupies the greater
part of 1t.
ColOnnade row and the building &C.
cupied for years by the Authors
League of America, at Seventeenth
street and Irving place, are all that
remain of Washington Irving's resi-
dence in Manhattan, for long ago
passed the house on William street
where he was born, and the house
near the Battery, where he lived i'm
mediately after his return in 1892 from
seventeen years of wandering in Eu-
rope.
Colonnade row, originally known as
La Grange terrace, was built in 1898.
The buildings earned their sobriquet
on account Of the facade pillars, archi-
tecturally most attractive, that adorn
the structures.
PaulGing, Halleck, Cooper and other
writers of the period frequented the
place. Poe was too poor to be in the
then fashionable neighborhood. John
Tyler lived at 430 Lafayette street, in
"the row." and events attending his
wedding took place there.-New York

janitor of the First National bank,
Familiarity known as George, who
does the milking for Mr.. Read, was
having troubles which made Mr.
Reads difficulties look like ladies'

just finished milking and was going
to the house carrying a full bucket
of milk in either hand, when an old
ram became frightened at the low
flying devil, and, taking deadly aim
and a running start, hit poor old
George between the buckets with
disastrous results. George went one
way, it is said he went fast, the ram
was right after him and the milk
nearly drowned them both.

WILL LONG REMEMBER VISIT
Inhabitants of Old Providence Island
Astounded by the Appearance of
American Seaplanes.

One wonders what the inhabitants
Of Old Providence island thought
when seven American seaplanes, with
that rending clamor of motor that
marks these powerful devices, swooped
down on her tiny harbor. The report
of the seven fliers is epic in its sim
plicity.
Some Of them seemed scared" said
they. "They had never seen an air
plane before"
Life in Old Providence, as it APP
peared to the marOoned sea fliers, is
primitive in its simplicity. The Is
land itself is four miles long, lying
in the midst of the Caribbean sea
at distance of $50 miles from Colon.
In its center a wooded eminence rises
to what seemed the majestic height
of !, 100 feet.
The harbor is too tiny and too shall
low to permit the entrance of big
ships, and so the islands only con-
nection with the outside world is
through the semi-occasional visits of
a little yawl, which carries freight
and passengers each way. Someti times
the yawl gets to Old Providence once
in three weeks. Sometimes it doesn't
Its schedule depends on freights, the
within of its master, the winds, the
conveniences of the day.
Usually it brings the mails" said
the Old Providentials. Sometimes it
doesn't"

Pittsburuhers Will Bore.

After having tried, for a number
Of years, to get over and around the
hills surrounding their city, the resi-
dents of Pittsburgh have decided to
strike at the heart of the difficulty
and go through them. Accordingly
tunneling operations have been got
ten under way which, when COM
pleted, will result in a double-tube
bore that will accommodate pedes-
trian, street car and vehicular
traffic, says Popular Mechanics
Magazine. The estimated cost of the
undertaking is between 100000 and
$3,000,000. and 1t is expected that two
years will be required for its COM
pletioa. 1t establishes no precedent,
as another bore, made several years
ago, has given satisfactory service, al
though reserved for the use Of street
cars only.
