THE COLUMBIAN, BLOOMSBURG, PA. WILL INVADE JAVA. Two Expeditions Expect to Find i Missing Link There.

' 6erch for the pithernnthrophus, he "mlsHing link" in Darwin's theory mt the evolution of mnn, in now under way, with the money of a Vundcrbilt behind. David J. Walters, a student f Yale, backed by George Ynnder bilt, left Mew Haven on September 1, and expects to take up hi ft ill hunt n the island of Java about October .15. 1'rof. llaeekele, of the University f Jena, and one of the most noted dentists of Kurope, will leave Jena about the 1st of October on the same quest, und the race may be to the wift. Several of these animals are said to have ben seen In the forests ot Java, and every effort of the two men will be bent toward securing a speci men. The pithecanthropus belongs to the ape family. Its name comes from the ubdivision pithecia, of the family cebidae. Scientists have credited its existence accordingly ns they have ac cepted the Darwinian idea of the origin of man. Stories of the cren nres hnvn come from travelers and from natives of the jungles stories Ten to the carrying off of women by this strange creature, which so close ly is allied to mnn. Credence is given to these stories by the followers of Darwin, for the rea son that of all the known members of the ape family none approaches near enongh to mnn in general attributes to be accorded the place of missing Jink. All of them have marked like nesses to mnn in many physical fea tures, but none is a convincing proof of the theory in itself. Uriefly, the Darwinian philosophy holds that all animal life began with a few primtive forms of living organ- THE MISSING LINK. (Known to Scientists Under the Name ot Pithecanthropus.) isms. Granting that of all these pres ent forms man is at the top, the ques tion is: How did he get there and from what lower order? Darwin held that man was not necessarily a devel oped ape; only that far back in the history of world-building the man branch of the ape stock diverged from the normal, and that it con tinued through nges to develop ulong the lines of its differentiation. In a great measure the study of the known apes and monkeys had been disappointing to scientists, who would have made man a direct descendant of the npo group. Four of the best representatives of the group now known nre the gorilla, chimpanzee, orang-outang nnd gibbon. Iiut no one of these approaches man more nearly than another, and all fall far short. The brain of the ornn-outnng, with the convolutions, is more nearly like that of man than is the brain of nny of the others. But, on the other band, the body of the gorilla is most like the body of the man. It is here that such intense interest lies in the pithecanthropus. If in brain, skele ton and general physical outline it can show a more marked likeness to man can fill in the gap so palpably open in the present genealogicnl .diain of the human race it will mean much to the science of anthropology and to the whole theory of evolu tion. Tracing the tracks of mnn bnck through the nges, the scientist has found many gaps In the fossil history of the creation. Kven primitive man burned or buried his dead, and there are ages which never will yield their secrets to the scientist. Yet his re search into the customs, rites and manners of savage tribes point to a '.ower origin for even these rude spe cies. Again, as pointing to this evolu tion of man, the scientist lins found rudimentnry organs in mnn, showing departures from the ways of life of his ancestry. As for example, the well-defined ear muscles in man could not have been of use to him had he been born to his present high estate. The question of the missing link 23 years ago was more in the public tar than it is now, but to-day it has not been unswered. If the pithecan thropus shall give evidence in support at the Darwinian theory, it promises to be quite as welcome as"' it is now unnecessary. Indians Who Are Civilised.

The announcement from Washing ton Hint the president is determined to insist that the Chinese government shnll obey its treaty obligations pledg ing protection, not only to the Chris tian missionaries, but to the native Christians, will command universal approval, says the Chicago Kvening I'ost. The treaties repeatedly made between the United Slates nnd China have been most specific on this point. The mnssacre of the hundreds and the thousands of native Christians has miNCE CHINO.

It is plain that the empress nnd her 1m- j mediate advisers hnve been nt the .back of the horrible outrages perpe- j trnted by her "bashibazook" Hoxers. The allied powers owe it to civiliza- i tion to make it plain that the inter national compacts Insuring liberty of conscience and security against per secuting violence must be respected. Kussia may not take great interest in this nintter.but Great Uritnin, France and Germany, and Japan, nlso, may be depended upon to be in accord. The following are the terms of the treaty of Tientsin: The principles of the Christian rellRlnn, ns ; iPmressed Dy tee rrotestant and Homnn Catholic churches, are recognized as teach ing' men to do Rood, nnd to do to others as they would have others do unto them.

Any person, whether a citizen of tlie Unit ed States or Chinese convert, who, accord ing to these tenets, peaceably tenches and practices the principles of Christianity, shnll In no case be Interfered with or mo lested. i These terms nre perfectly specific nnd unmistakable. Their renewed af firmation by the great powers of the world ennnot fail to hnve a salutary effect on the minds of the Chinese throughout the Celestial empire. DR. JOSEPH PARKER. Englnml'i Grentest I'nlplt Orator Declarer Thnt He I About to He tire from the Ministry. I!ev. Dr. Joseph Parker, the famous preacher of London, is about to retire from the ministry. lie is the. pastor of the City temple, the lending Congrega tional church of Great Itritain, nnd has been ever a prime favorite with Amer- icans abroad. Dr. Parker established the City temple in 1809, nnd during the years that have passed since then he has developed nn important work among the poor of the great city. Few pulpit orators are more eloquent, more outspoken or more fearless than the celebrated British divine. Preaching DR. JOSEPH PARKER. (Famous English Preacher Who Will Re tire from the Ministry.) has been a passion with him. "What is your hobby, doctor?" a lady once asked him. "Preaching, madam." "But opart from preaching?" "There Is nothing apart from preaching. It touches all life," he replied. Dr. Parker' father was a stonecutter, herculean in physique nnd strength and with the tread of a iioninn soldier. All this the son inherited. He does not know the meaning of the word "ill." Dr. Porker in most of his opinions Is most liberal. "The stage," he says, "cannot be put down. It responds to an instinct which is ineradicable." And he is drnmntie in his pulpit. The retir ing minister will be 71 years old next April. His degree of doctor of divinity was conferred by the University of Chicago.

Famous Song Writer Honored by i the People of Pittsburgh. Ills Cnmiioalllnns Are fnnii nml Ad mired In All I'nrln of the W orld Description of the ltcnlly Artlittlo Monument. i Stephen Collins Foster finally hns a monument in Pittsburgh, where he was born nnd where he spent tunny years of his life. Lawrrnceville, Pa., the actunl place of his birth, Is now part of Pittsburgh, and when atten tion was called to that fact several years ago it was determined to see what could be done toward raising a monument to the memory of the man who wrote "Way Down on the Sti wanee liivcr," "Massa's in the Cold, Cold Ground," "Old lilack Joe." and many other songs. The coot ributions for the monument came from tunny sources, although most of them natu rally were given by citizens of Pitts burgh. The statue was unveiled on September J2 In Highland park under very interesting circumstances. A chorus of children's voices to the number of 3,0111) was made up in Pitts burgh, Allegheny and MeKcesport, the three towns of the county, nnd was devoted almost exclusively to the singing of Foster's music. A collec tion of bands from other cities sup plied the orchestral music, that was made up entirely of Foster's songs. The monument is t lie work of Giuseppe Marchctti, of New York, nnd the large number of competitors included sculptors from nil pnrts of the country. The design of the monu ment was suggested by T. .1. Krennn. Jr., of Pittsburgh, nnd the committee which accepted Sig. Mnrchetti's work consisted of A. V. Mellon, Uob ert Pitoairn, K. M. P.igelow, V. X. Frew, J. W. Heatty and Senator C. T Mnjjei?. The statue is the first one set up in Highland park, nnd the committee has exercised care to protect itself against j FOSTER MOM'M EXT.

The poet is seated und holds in his hand u book nnd pencil. Seated at his feet is an old negro, who is playing n banjo. The song composer is evidently seek ing inspiration from the negro's mu sic. The stntue is placed at the left of the main entrance of the park. The exercises nt the unveiling were almost wholly musical, and only one address was delivered. One hundred thousand persons were present at .the ceremonies, and as Foster's music is probably better known ,to the people of this country than any other composer's, many joined in the choruses. "America" was the only song on the programme that was not the work of Foster. The composer was born on July 4, 1SI2G, and died in New York 38 years later. He taught himself music mid studied with great assiduity. His com positions include UK) songs, of whicli the first written was "Open Thy Lat tice, Love," published in 1842, and the last was "Beautiful Dreamer," com posed in 1SG4, the last year of his lile. "Gentle Annie," "Willie, We Have Missed You," "Old Dog, Tray," "Come Where My Love Lies Dreaming," "Nel lie Was a Lady," "Sly Old Kentucky Home," "Maggie by Slji Side," and "El len ISayne," the music of which is now used for "John Brown's Body Lies a-Moaldering in the Grave," were some of the best known among his compositions. As a rule he wrote both the words and music of his songs. In the Twentieth Centnry. The twentieth century will have 24 leap years, the greutest possible num ber.
