Having finished reading the above
note, I shook bands with the (treat de

These, however, he very quickly cut
short.
"Tou have nothing to thank me for.'
tie said coldly. "I am here under orders
and now, air, pardon me If I ask you to
tell me all you know of the circum
stances connected with your brother's
death. Time Is always precious, and
(hit mutt excuse any apparent brus
queness on my part."
His manner was Indeed almost repl
iant, but. as I looked more closely at
Ills face, It seemed so drawn that I was
conscious of a guilty pang at hav
ing been even Instrumental In
dragging a sick man into what b:Je
fair to be a very arduous piece of work.
There was nothing to do, however, but
to relate, as briefly as possible, all that
I knew.
Phillips, during the recital, sat with
his head resting upon his hand, while
Ills eyes wandered incessantly about
the apartment. He did not Interrupt
uie once, but when I had finished, pro
ceeded to put his questions. Then It
was that every vestige of languor van
ished. His face became'strangely ani
mated, while his eyes fairly glittered.
"Tou have been very full in every
thing that bears upon Mr. Ralph's con
nection with the matter," he began;
"and I congratulate you. A profes

"To tell the truth," I replied, "I know
try little about It. My 'brother always
tsastrined that the company was trying
to retaliate, by petty annoyances and
delays In the work, for hla legal oppo

particular. It appeared that he had
gone down to remonstrate with them
a proceeding which I knew he would
not be apt to conduct very gentry, that
the foreman had been impudent and
said. In effect, that the court had given
them permtsilon au;i they'd do the
work as they pleased and build the
bridKe when they got ready. Then my
brother lost his .temper completely, said
that the New Orleans people were the

only ones who understood how to deal
with the Italian question, and that he
proposed to get Ue damned cowardly
Mafia off his place, if tt took a shotgun
to do It. From what I (fathered, very
little was raid tn ivply. Two or three
of the laborers were rather threatening
but the foreman quieted them with a
few words in Italian. a.-d my brother
rushed back to the house. 1 will not
deny that the incident troubled me con
siderably for a time, though Robert
laughed at my fears. Nevertheless. I
took occasion to go down to the cut
once or twice and talk pleasantly to
the foreman. I was surprised to find
him dlspoied to be remarkably polite,
and, shortly after, when the company
drew the workmen off to another part
of the road, he expressed his regret to
me that they had cot been able to com
plete the bridge before their departure.
For the last two weeks none of them
have been seen in the neighborhood.
and" my fears had entirely subsided
when this terrible event happened." -
"Very good," he said, "and now may
I ask you to suhnmonyour colored man?
I believe you stated that he made the
affidavit .Implicating Ralph?"
To my surprise. I found some diffi
culty In . persuading the ngro to tell
Phillips, his story. "Wha's de good,
Massa Henry?" he kept repeating: and
nothing but my absolute orders availed
to briig him Into the library. Once
there, . he showed much agitation at
first. Then he braced himself and
launched out Into a voluble relation of
the quarrel between Ralph and my
brother, ending up with:
'An' I Jes' knowed dat young fellah
wam't no good from de day he done
walked over mah phortchalakah bed1
an' krrtd fit to kill heself when I tol'
hi!i to be moan cahful."
"Where, were you, Anderson," asked
Fhillls, quietly, "when you heard the
words, 'between your maaiter and Mr.
Ralph?"
"In de hall, sah."
' What were you doing there I mean.
what did you go there for?"
'Nuffln at all. I Jus" went dah V see

"What tllme of day was It?"
"I doan rahtly recollec' dat, sah."
"Tour present master told me that
the dispute took place In the afternoon
very ahortly before dinner."
"Das ra.ht; das raht, sah. I recollec
now."
"You are the only servant, I believe."
"Yeah."
"Well, ai'?n't you pretty apt to be
confined to th kitchen Just before din
ner? It's a rather bad time to go look
ing around the house for nothing in
particular, Isn't It?"
Anderson's face began to grow ashy
and his legs trembled perceptibly.

me.
"Tou and your brother probably

said.
"That's hardly likely. In the presence

"Neither Is tt likely that your niece
was present at the meal immediately

It Is a Mistake to Credit Him With the
Authorship of a Scientific Hypothesis
That Was Broadly Hinted at By Aris
totle.
From the Chicago Times-Herald.
With a curious lack of knowledge as
to the past of science. corararm...
t, Ufa of Huxley tall into me
.lar rror of declaring that he "es
tabltsbed the theory of evolution" of
which Darwin-, is declared to De me
"author." If an assertion so idly
mad, and so absolutely, be not iiv
n.iirii into at the moment of Its birth a
spurious myth will be added to popular
faith concerning the progress oi cii
tifle Investigation and its tenatlve re
sults.
Evolution Is not established. In the
very nature of things It can never be es
tablished. Its premises, according to
Its own authentic advocates, go back be
yond the scope of man's power of re
oarch or of reckoning time. That It Is
very generally held to be true is beyond
Question: but those who believe most
firmly in It would be the last to claim for
Its demonstration. Without demonstra
tion a scientific theory cannot be said to
be established. If the evolution of spe
cies from species be admitted an Inte
gral part of the theory of evolution, as It
must be, a monumental barrier stands
in the way of Us unquestioned accept
ance. That barrier has been placed In
scientific annals by Louis Agassis In
his exposltlon-of the fixity of Bpecles, as
Illustrated by embryology.
Apparent to Aristotle.
As Huxley has not established evolu
tlon, Darwin was not and never claimed
to be Its "author." The principle of
evolution was apparent to Aristotle,
who, notwithstanding the scantiness of
materials, means and opportunity for
blologlo study, perceived the reason
ableness and probability of the prin
ciple. The theory Itself was widely
known among the Greek and the early
Christian scholars, and was freely dis
cussed, pro and con. In the Christian
schools of the first five centuries.
Darwinism, properly stated, Is natural
selection, and undertakes to Justify
the principle of evolution. Natural se
lection, briefly stated, is .that every kind
of animal and plant tends to Increase In
numbers In geometrl-al progression;
that every kind transmits a general
likeness, with individual difference, to
its offspring, and that every Individual
has to endure a severe struggle for ex
istence, owing to the tendency to geome
trical Increase of all kinds of animals
and plants, while the total animal and
vegetable population, man and his
agency excepted, remains almost sta
tionary, Not the Qnly Manns.
In the last edition of "The Origin of
Bpecles," Jarwln somewhat modifies
natural selection In relation to Its po
tency as a factor in the probabiltly of
evolution. While he continued to main
tain that K Is the most Important means
by which nature has preserved an equi
librium 'between generation and sub
sistence, he does not adhere to his
original poosltlon that it Is the only
means.
It will also be remembered that while
evolution Is not Darwin's In any sense,
the hypothesis of natural selection was
put forth by Alfred R. Wallace about
the same time as Darwin, who, how
ever, was antecedent In reaching the
world with his evidence In support of It,
thereby giving to the hypothesis of na
tural selection his name.
Darwin- himself, a chivalrous, high
minded and honest man, who wrote
modestly and cautiously, always re
sented ascription to him of anything
which was not his due. Huxley would
smile with his characteristic brusque
ness of candor at the absurdity of claim
ing for him the establishment of a
theory which neither he nor any other
scientific defender of evolution pro
fessed to believe susceptible of demon
stration. UP A LONGTIME.

STOCKS AND BONDS. '
New Tork, July 18. The interests
working to bring about lower prices
for the Industrials were quite success
ful today. , Their objective point was
Chicago gas, and they started In early
to sell the stock and kept little until
the close. At the end of the day they
had the price down to 49 against 65,
at the close yesterday. Final transac
tions, however, were at 51. Leather

broke from K to 81W. The decline led
to covering and a rally to 834 ensued.

a time and tn the morning session was

morning was equal to 4a4 per cent

most conspicuous. In the lust hour,
however, the Improvement wan lost and
speculation left off barely steady. Net

cent, for tihe active issues and losses of
4 to i per cent, for tho Industrials.
Illinois Central gained tt and Lake
Shore and New England 1 per cent.

whs announced that $100,000 gold had
been withdrawn from the sub-treasury

Happy Rlso of a kindllor Spirit Among
Theologians Who, Mot Long Ago, Were
Metaphorically Pulling Each Other's

From the Chicago Times-Herald.
The church militant that used to be
Is becoming the church urbane. De
plorable as the facts are, we cannot
wipe out of history periods in which,
professedly for the love of God, Christ
ians as vigorously as heathen resorted
to mosot unchrhitlan methods for the
purpose of saving one another's souls by
torture of one another's bodies, Incident
ally of one another's minds. Such a
thing as the retort courteous was un
known even in the highest planes of
scholarship, without regard, as a well
known amendment to a modern con
stitution says, to race, color, creed or
previous condition of servitude.
The style in which the Christians of
high degree were wont to address and
write letters is exemplified by the pen of
the flower of puritanism, John Milton.
He was answering Salmaslus, defender
of Charles the Second. Some of the
gentle terms employed by the author
of "Lycldas" to his antagonist are
"pragmatical coxcomb," "silly little
scholar," "saucy tongue," "knave,"
"rogue," "fellow," "you slug." "silly
loggerhead," "witness senseless braw
ler," "hair-brained blunderbuss," "vain,
flashy man," "doctor umbratlcus,"
"superlative fool," "sacrilegious
wretch," "blot and stain to all learned
men," "runagate," and much more of
tho same. "And I persuade myself,"
writes Milton, "the extemporary
rhymes of some antic jack-pudding may
deserve printing better, so far am I
from thinking aught he says worthy a
serious answer," which nevertheless, he
proceeds to make through a preface
and twelve chapters, mad either
possessed the conveniences necessary.
words, no doubt, would have ended In
something. If no more convincing, at
least more conclusive.
Times have changed. Polite epistol
ary correspondence as we used to read
about In the pretty curriculum of the
young ladles' school, has become a re
sort for churchmen. No longer do they
call each other names. Now all Is po
liteness at least, If not peace.

Who knows what the death rate is
here?" asked the statistical boarder.
"Why," gurgled the cheerful Idiot, "any

death apiece for every Inhabitant."
The statistical boarder made some re

TO our patrons:
Washburnrosby Co. wish to assure their many pat
rons that they will this year hold to their usual custom
of milling STRICTLY OLD WHEAT until the new crop
is fully cured. New wheat is now upon the market, ana
owing to the excessively dry weather many millers are
of the opinion that it N already cured, and in proper
condition for milling. Washburn-Crosby Co. will take
no risks, and will allow the new wheat fully three
months to mature before grinding. '
This careful attention to every detail of milling haa
placed Washburn-Crosby Co.'s flour far above other
brands.
