THE SILVER STATUE
Its UBTeiliBf the Event of tie Dan at
tie Great -White City.
MAJOR MAGINNIS LAUDS MONTANA
After tbe Exercises the Montana Com'
missioners Entertained Friends and
Fair Commissioners.
Chicago, May 30. Montana's famous
solid silver statue of "Justice" was un
veiled in the mines and mining building
today. It is the statue for which the ac
tress, Ada Rehan, stood as a model, and
by so doing created great contention
among her sisters of the profession.
The unveiling of the statue was the event
of tbe day the White City, and the
great building in which the statue stands
was thronged with people eager to see
the magnificant work . of art. While
the crowd was assembling, the Cincin
nati band played national airs. The
opening address was by Major Martin
McGinnis.
When he finished. Mrs. Rickards, of
Montana, stepped forward, and, taking
up a small silken cord, gave it a gentle
pull, and the stars and stripes which
enfolded the silver image of "Justice"
fell away and exposed the statue for the
first time to public gaze. The crowd
gave vent to wild cheers, while the band
played "America."
Washington News.
Seattle, Wash., May 30. Special to
the Chronicle. The exercises of to
day have passed off very satisfactorily to
all. The services were very imposing.
The G. A. R. and Sons of Veterans
marched in line, together with many
prominent citizens, and other orders
and officers. The only disagreeable fea
ture was a slight shower of rain which
dampened the plumes of the state
militia.
. The appointments of Judge Brinker
for the position of district attorney and
Mr. Drake for the position of U. S.
marshal meets with great approval
among all the well-wishing and good
citizens whether they be democrat or
republican. Both are men of un
questioned ability and will make efficient
officers.
For two days the steamer Haytian
Republic has been anchored in the har
bor, undergoing a search by the custom
officers, who have been informed that
she has opium on board. The Haytian
Republic is a beautiful ocean steamer,
and is a decoration to the Sound trade.
On Saturday evening when she hauled
in at ocean dock, the U. S. officers were
then ready to seize her, and since that
time the officers have been at work on
board, both day and night. So far but
little opium has been discovered, and
that which was found on board is sup
posed to belong to some of the work
men. Various telegrams and letters
found in the office of the steamer made
it appear for a while that she had on
board opium, but a further search re
vealed that the communications,
in cypher, referred to coal and not to
opium. Just what will be done on ac
count of this wrongful seizure, is not
yet known.
The Alaska Tourist Season.
San Francisco, May 31. Special.
The steamer Queen left yesterday for
Alaska. She will stop at Fuget sound
ports and start north June 7th. The
demand for accommodations for the
opening trip has been unusually heavy,
and the Pacific Coast Steamship Com
pany has only a very few staterooms re
maining. From Southern California
there will be a large delegation, and the
number of Eastern tourists is also large.
, Expects a Fall.
The established rates for world's fair
passenger business are being main
tained, contrary to the expectations of
the general public, and even of railroad
men. The actual number of world's
fair passengers probably does not ex
ceed 10 persons per day out of Portland.
It is not thought, however, that this
order of things can continue long. Dif
ferent local passenger men estimate that
not more than 15 to 20 persons have left
Portland daily on all the lines to visit
the fair, and a number of these would
have gone in any event, as they desired
to go east, and would have done so even
had the fair not been in progress. Tel
egram. IS NOW MBS. BULL.

New York, May 30. Mrs. Marie
Nevins Blaine, the divorced wife of the
in the South Reformed church. The
father of the bride gave her away. No
attendants. The ceremony was followed
by a wedding breakfast at Mrs. Blaine's
apartments. Only intimate friends and
relatives were asked to tbe ceremony.
Not nfore than 50 people were present.
The wedding is tbe happy consumma
tion of a romance begun when Mrs.
Blaine was snriously ill three years ago.
That she would be a cripple for life was
the verdict of the physicians who at
tended her. Dr. Bull, however, gave
more hopeful assurances, and it is to his
efficient skill that she owes her com
paratively good health today. After a
wedding Crip in this country, Dr. and
Mrs Bull will sail for Europe.
FOUND DROWNED.
An Unknown Man Drifting
Columbia.
Down tbe
Saturday evening as Turner Leavens
was standing on his fish-wheel above
the upper Cascades he saw the body of
a man drifting past. At this juncture
Louis Iman and James Shepherd, who
were in a boat going to Geo. H. Steven
son's, were hailed and immediately went
and secured tbe body, towing it to Pow
der island where it was made fast. Sun
day morning Mr. Stevenson came down
to Cascades on a hand car after County
Clerk Carr to hold an inquest. Mr.
Carr being the only officer at home, he
accompanied Mr. Stevenson to where
the remains were and an inquest
held. The witnesses were Louis Iman,
James Shepherd and Turner Leavens.
There is no clue whatever to his identity,
but the body is supposed to be that of a
man who fell in tbe river at the rapids
of Celilo. As there was nothing on his
person whatever to identify him, his
name will undoubtedly never be known.
There was no evidence whatever of foul
play and his drowning was undoubtedly
an accident. He was buried on Powder
island. Skamania County Pioneer.
President of the Santa fe.
Joseph W. Reinhart, recently elected
president of tbe Atchison, Topeka and
Santa Fe railroad company, is one of
the most successful
railroad financiers
of the country. He
has had a long ex
perience, having
entered the railroad
business in 1869.
The new president,
who is a native of
Pittsburg, Penn., is
a man of fine ap
pearance and strong
character. As auditor of the New York,
West Shore and Buffalo Railroad he ori
ginated an accounting system that has
been adopted on many others, of the
larger roads. In 1888 he became con
nected with the Atchison, giving his at
tention to its financial condition. Un
der his supervision as vice president a
financial reorganization was effected,
placing the company on a sound basis.
He succeeds Allen Manvel, whose death
recently occurred.

Highest of all in Leavening Power. Latest U. S. Gov't Report.
THE HORSE.
The Best Point In Support of the Evo
lutionist. Written lor Thm Chbohicu.)
An item in Saturday's Chbonicxk
about tbe finding on Chenoweth creek,
of the tooth of an ancient hone, baa
suggested to me that perhaps it would
be of interest to your readers to know
something - of the antecedents of that
most useful and sensible of all animals.
There is little doubt but the horse
originated here, in our own country, aa
there are very many evidences to prove.
It is also almost certain that his ances
tors existed for long ages before his
master, man did.
The earliest remains found which are
clearly defined as belonging to an an
imal of the horse kind, were discovered
a few years since by Prof. Marsh of Yale
college, and has been named by him the
eohippus or the eocene horse, from the
lowest eocene .beds of Green river,
Wyoming. This animal is many long
ages older than any of the fossils of Or
egon. He had three toes on the hind
foot, and four well developed toes in
functional use on the fore foot, and in
addition on the fere foot, an imperfect
fifth meta-corpal or splint bone with a
rudimentary fifth toe like a dew-claw.
He was also found to have two distinct
bones in the leg and fore-arm, like an
imals with the full mammalian number
of five toes have. This was a little
fellow, no larger than a coyote.
Again, in the middle eocene beds, also
of Wyoming near Fort Bridger, is found
the orobippus, also first described by
Prof. Marsh, an animal like the pre
ceding one in size and structure, except
that the dew-claw or rudimentary toe of
the fore foot is missing, leaving only
fonr toes on the fore foot. Then next in
the scale of modification, comes the
mesohipphus of the lower miocene
period or the period next succeeding the
eocene. In this one the fourth toe haa
become a rudiment or splint. Still
again, in the miocene, the miohippus of
this country,' and this is the first we
find here, of which a nearly allied specie
is found in Europe. It has been named
there the anchithere. in this specie the
rudimentary fourth . splint is almost
gone, and the middle hoof is very much
larger, but the two side hoofs are still
in use: The two bones of tbe leg have
become united, but can be quite plainly
seen as two distinct bones. This one
was about as large as a sheep.
Then we have in the upper miocene
and lower pliocene, the protohippns of
this country and his allied kindred of
Europe the hipparion. This one is still
more like the modern horse, both in
size and structure. In this one the
rudimentary fourth toe is entirely gone.
Tbe middle hoof is very much larger,
and the two side hoofs are smaller and
would have been of little use to him ex
cept in marshy ground. This one waa .
as large as the modern donkey. Many
fine specimens of this have been found
here in Oregon in our splendid fossil
fields. Then in the pliocene of Oregon
and Nebraska is found the pliobippus,
an almost complete horse. In this one
the hoofs have been reduced by nature
to one, but still the splint bones are
quite well developed, and are somewhat
larger than in our modern genus called
equus. It only differs from our modern,
horse in the skull, shape of the hoof,
and length of the molar teeth, and in
some quite unimportant details.
The line of descent in the horse has
been so rapidly traced as to leave no
doubt but that the noble animal that
now so faithfully does our bidding, orig
inated from tbe little eohippus of the
dark, dim and distant age passed so long
ago as to be almost beyond the mind of
man the sometimes cruel master of
this wonderful creature of God.
I might mention in conclusion, that
tbe descent of tbe camel an animal next
to the horse most useful to man has
been traced back to an age almost as
distinct as that of the horse, and all
evidence tends to show that both of
these useful creatures originated on this
continent. A strange circumstance, but
these old records tell more truthful tales
than man will ever write. L. S. D.
