EASY TO TRACE EVOLUTION
Probably That of the Horse Is the Most Perfect of Which There
 Is Evidence.

There is on record no more perfect example of evolution than the horse. Under the able direction of Prof Henry Fairfield Osborn, the distin- guished president of the American Museum of Natural History, the great est collection of fossil horses in the world has been brought together in the museum. We have so detailed record that the complete evolution of the horse, from the tiny, five-tOed for est-living, cretaceOus ancestor, to Man O War, the most perfect living horse, is there for all to trace, writes Roy Chapman Andrews, in Asia Magazine.
 The horse, we know, originated in Wyoming and adjacent parts of the West. At first he was a shy retiring creature, no larger than terrier, with five toes on feet adapted to the soft, springy ground of the forests. AS the wooded area began to decrease in ex- tent, the horse perforce changed his habits, becoming more and more plains-liVing animal dependent upon speed to protect him from enemies, Since his five-toed feet were not adapt ed for swift running on hard ground, the middle toe gradually developed the hoOf, and the side digits disappeared, except for the sO-called "splint-bOneS' in horses as we know them today. The causes that forced the evolution of the horse are in certain respects similar to those that we see effective in hu- man evolution.
 Many theories concerning the evOlu- tiOn of man have been advanced by eminent scientists. That proposed by the late Prof. Joseph Barrell of Yale university has much to give 1t support.
 Professor Barrell believed that, as the forests decreased and the an thrOpoid apes could no longer retreat sOuthward because of the great barrier of the Himalaya mountains, they were forced to adapt themselves to a life upon the ground. Whether or not they did this from necessity or choice, it seems almost sure that the prOgenitOr of man was a ground ape"-a crea- ture living on nuts and roots and when in danger, running to the trees for safety. AS he gradually lost the shelter of the forest, he had to ac- Quire the means of protecting himself and of combating the enemies of the ground. This led to communal life, hands with an opposed thumb with which to grip sticks and stones to be used in defense, an erect posture and a foot adapted to swift and sustained running. These bodily changes, which were of profound importance, must have taken place very slOwly-in hun dreds of thousands of years. The physical adaptations carried with them a mental development core spOndingly remarkable. Thus 1t was, says Professor Barrell, that man di- Verged from the parent ape-stOck.

Effect of Franz Liszt.

Autograph letters, trinkets and other articles associated with Franz Liszt have been brought to this coun- try by Rudolph Siegel at the request of the composers heirs, remarks the New York Herald, for whose benefit they are to be sold.
 Included in the collection of eighty items Is a death mask and lock of Lis8t's long gray hair The genuine ness of the latter Is attested by Lena SchnNAlhausen, who was the house keeper at the Liszt home at the time of his death, in 1888. The cast, which GR in a glass case, is in excellent con- &tion. A prayer book, much used and worn by the great composer. Is an item closely woven with his life aS the two presentation books given to him on his seventieth birthday, October 22 1881.
 One of these books contains many autographs of musicians who were famous during this period. In 1t Hans vOn Bulow, eminent pianist, is repre- Sented in two separate autographed notations. Translated from his script, which is in German, they read: "As soon as we artists are able to enamel pate ourselves from the plebeian vice of envy and fear we will be enabled to consider ourselves the pinnacle of aristocracy and music as photographic reproduction of the acoustics of eternity"
 Thirty letters in French and thir- teen in German comprise the cOllec ton of letters, among which is cores pondence from Theresa CarrenO, Carl Hausig and Pablo de Sacrasate.

Rato Infest EnqIIsh Town.

A Nottingham (Eng.) municipal medical officer has this to say about rats in his city: "A half million rats, some two feet long and weighing two pounds, inhabit the prehistoric subter- ranean- passages of the city. They would attack elephants. They have killed and devoured mongooses, fer rets and wildcats, and men do not dare invade their haunts. An under fed female cat alone is superior to a big rat. The city tried poisoning them, but the rats quickly discovered the food was tempered with and they refused to eat it." Asphyxiating poison gas has been suggested to rid Noting ham of the horde of rodents.

Smoke as Liuhtninq Conductor.


 In a recent reference to the astrO- nomical observatory on Mt. Etna, a prominent scientist called attention to the fact that thunderstOrms are very rare phenomena there. The Observa- tory is more than 5000 feet above the level of the sea, and near the summit of the volcano, yet it has not been found necessary to protect it with lightning rods. The absence of thun- derstorms has been accounted for on the suppOsition that the smoke and hot vapOr constantly rising from the great crater of Etna act as light ming conductor on a grand scale.
