HIGH AND BUOAD UA MPARTS GUARDED BY FOKTS SURROUND TUB IMPERIAL CITY, BUT THE ALLIES FORCED THEM WITHOUT DIFFICULTY. HISTORIC OLD FORT. A LINK BETWEEN THE PAST AND PRESENT. St. Atiiiiixtlno Fortress Fell Into Our Hands by Vlrtne of the Florida Pur chase In IBltt-NoteJ Indian Prison ers Con lined There. Fir many years old Fort Marlon, sit uated at St. August.lue, Flu., has been unocjiipled save by a merely nominal garrison of regulars Since the Span-l-li-Atueiicau war u few military pris oners, convicted of Infractions of dis cipline, have kept the soldiers company. Ever since Florida became a part of the United States by purchase from Hum I n In 1810 the fort has been used chiefly as an arsenal. The structure Is a link that connects the United States with an age but dim ly remembered, for It was first built In l.'i(iT), 3:15 years ago, and Is the oldest on the coutincnt. Since Its transfer to the United States some famous Indian chiefs have been prisoners of war In Its dungeons, among them Osceola and Wildcat, tho Seminole leaders confined pi.-1 i FORT MARION, OLDEST MILITARY there In 1&17; lending chiefs ami head ' men of Comanche, Arapnho and other Indian tribes who were captured on the , AVestern frontier In 1875. me nenu chief of a baud of the Apache nation, Chihuahua, and Geronimo, Natchez, Magnus and other chiefs of that nation were sent to the fort In 1880, and were there for thirteen months. The broad terrepleln of Fort Marlon Is a very beautiful promenade, com manding the same magnificent view of the ocean as lu the feudal ages. Through the summer months the place Is alive with excursionists from all over the South, aud at night occasional promenade concerts and dances are given ou the terrepleln. While all about are signs of Joyous, abundaut life, a peep Inside the dungeons where were practiced all the horrors of the Spanish Inquisition will chill the heart of the must Indifferent aud a recital of some of the fact and traditions connected therein wll! awe the most frivolous, i Persons of, rault and power were cou lined within the gloomy walls of these dungeons, where death wai certain within a few hours; others were sub jected to the cuuulng atrocity of their persecutors. Fort Marlon was thrice named, flrst as San Juau do Plnas and later as Sau Mario. Tho first material used at the commencement of the fort, lu 13d5, was logs piled high and earth filled In between- Coqulua rock was later used In Its reconstruction and enlargement. The walls are twenty-one feet high aud about them Is a moat nearly forty feet lu width. The fort was strengthened liom time to time, and though twice long l eslcgcd and several times attack ed the plan of defeuses was such that the fort was never taken. Shot and shell were Simply Imbedded to an In significant depth In the walls three feel thick, so that no considerable breath was ever made. On the walls facing old ocean are seen the marks of thou sands of murderous bullets. Prisoners condemned for execution were brought forth at sunrise and stood up agalust the wall, and, as the sunlight of a new ilny stole across the waters, and with their faces toward the east tbelr lives were forfeited, many of thein for no crime. PROOF BY EVERY BABY. Fitid to Offer Evidence that We Are l escendel from Monkey-s Ever since Darwin tropouuded his aoudiiful theory of tie descent J mm yr MwmI-v w ft ' , ' . ' i " " I aU Wr l. a- TV , ft I ki l -c " "."-".. .VTaa a- - .:.-. I Jilt THE FORTIFIED WALLS OF PEKIN. man, scientists ami anturopoiogims have been trying to improve on Darwin, and the baby is to furnish the last con clusive proof that men are descended from monkeys. A cold blooded English doctor It was who flrst startled an already astounded world by the publication of the result of many years' calm, critical study of Infant life. In the flrst place he proved that the arms and legs of a new-born baby are very different to what Is evolved later In life. The legs are In an undeveloped condition, and the arms are far more perfectly formed and stronger propor tionately. Not only that, they are longer. The doctor, having noted this, pro ceeded to make experiments. The child upon whom the flrst experiment was made was little more than an hour old. The result of the test was astonishing. A small stick, three-quarters of an Inch In diameter, was put Into the tiny, grasping hands. The baby seized bold Instinctively. The doctor slowly lifted the stick. For ten seconds the baby supported the whole of its weight by its fingers and arms, exactly like an aero bat on a horizontal bar. The next baby experimented on was four days old. The precocious Infant POST IN THE UNITED STATES. sustained Itself In the same way for half a minute, aud so the doctor contin ued his experiments, until he at last proved that the prehensile faculty at tained Its zenith when the child was about fourteen days old, w hen It would hang u for about a minute aud a half, though one unconscious record-breaker succeeded in hanging thus for two mla tues aud thirty-five seconds! Here Is, Indeed, food for reflection. A baby only a few days old can accom plish without effort a feat that taxes the energy of many a full-grown adult. For you have only to try hanging ou a horizontal bar for two minutes to know how tired the muscles will get. What Is the explanation of the mar vel? Why do new-born babies possess this faculty, and yet, as they become older, gradually lose it? A six-mouths- old bnby could not hang on it at all. Here Is the doctor's explanation: Thousands of years ago man was a species of ape, a mere aulmal, who was being continually tamed and hunted by beasts of prey and the Inimical mem bers of his own race. Taking this for granted, the first thing necessary was the existence of strong, lithe arms arms that could seize hold of a hanging bough and swlug their owner out of danger; arms that could seine, and grasp, and strangle; arms that could work In unison with a quick Instiuct and sharp eyes. And so slowly man as we know him was evolved. He ceased being a tree climber, and gradually his short legs grew longer, and his arms lost their original faculties. But nature has a loug memory. Hence we find that the head and arms of a young Infant are almost abnormally developed when compared with other parts of Its body. This Is nature's reminder, and explalus the force of the doctor's discovery. There are other small traits that show the young Infant to be possessed of habits similar to monkeys. For In stance, 00 per cent, of children sleep In a curled-up position. No ape will sleep flat ou Its back as a man will, and chll drcn very rarely. R EAL HEROES THES E. They Ik-fled a Storm of Bullets to Oct Water for Their Com ra Irs, William McMasters, who recently died at Glasgow, Mon., won a medal of honor awarded by Congress for a con spicuously brave deed In one of the lu i.'.in w ars. In 1S70 he was la the do tachmciit under Reno, which was op erating with Custer at the Little Big Horn. The fighting bad been desper ate, and the plains all about were swarming with Indians. The wounded under Iteco suffered Intensely for water, which could be obtained only from a stream that lay In the range of the Indian tire, To go to that stream was almost certain death. Neverthe less the wounded must have water, and the commander called for four volun teers to go and fetch It. Four soldiers Instantly stepped out of the ranks. One of them was Will iam McMasters, a veteran of the civil war, and another was a young man named Dan Sullivan, who had enlisted from Illinois. The four men were laden with canteens, and, gripping their muskets, they started for the water. They had gone but a little way Into the open when one of them fell dead, pierced by an Indian bullet, and lay dead on the ground. The other three ran ou, with the bullets whistling about them, and succeeded In reaching the stream. They filled their canteens and started back. The bullets were whistling now worse than before, for the Indians had con centrated ttoelr fire, and were deter mined that not one of the soldiers should get back. Another man fell, and McMasters and Sullivan kept on aloue. Very soon a bullet struck Sullivan, but he ran just the same. McMasters helped him as well as he could, but he knew that he was sent to bring back water, and not to save a comrade. All four men had practically offered up their lives when they started out. Sullivan staggered on, mortally wounded, but he brought his water to the command before he fell. McMas ters brought his, too, and he was un touched. Sullivan was cared for by the sur geons, and possessed so large a fund of vitality that he survived to be sent home to Illinois. There he died, and the musket that he had held so valiant ly was placed in the museum of the his torical society at Springfield, where It remains. McMasters' bravery was not forgot teu. A medal of honor was awarded lil in by Congress. His service over, he went to work at his trade, which was that of a mason, and passed the re mainder of his life peacefully. A Strange Bicycle. There Is being manufactured by the American Bicycle Company lu Hart ford a wheel which is apparently des tined to meet with strange adventures. It is being made to order for C. A. Ste phens, the noted cyclist, who rode from Seattle Into Dawson last winter, there by performing a feat thnt had been generally declared impossible, and Is Intended for a trip across the Sahara desert. Stephens has been experiment ing on very sandy roads, aud as a re sult of his discoveries the bicycle will be built with a wider frame aud a larger fork than the ordinary wheel, providing a wider tread to allow the use of a big flat tire four Inches wide. Stephens believes that such a tire will preveut the wheel from sinking deeply Into the sand, aud will enable him to make good time across the desert. The wheel will be a ehaluless one, and with the exception of the changes In tire and frame will be the same as the one with which he beat all transportation rec ords over Chilkoot pass. Stephens will make the trip In the rear of a camel train, so that If he finds It Impossible to finish It ou his wheel he can take to a camel. A New Pacificator.

When the Baroness von Orendorff took her niece abroad, the baron, followed, and their little romance had for a background many European countries.

ABLE TO SKATE ON WATER. How a German Pea Captain More li Bhoe Thirteen Feet Long. Capt. Grossmann, a German sailor, Is the Inventor of a pair of shoes for walk ing on water. He recently gave an exhl bitlon on the Rhine at Worms near th new and Imposing bridge across the stream named. The shoes are made ol tin, weigh twenty-two pounds each, and :ogether are capable of sustaining a GROSSMANN ON WATER BKATKS. weight of more than 220 pounds. They are about thirteen feet long and are provided with three-hinged metallic flukes, which admit of easy movement forward, but retard movement back ward in the water. Capt. Grossmann uses a paddle to assist him In bis watery promenade, and finds it espe cially useful In turning. It is said he has saved twenty lives by the use of these shoes. A Summer Ice Hole. Near Coudersport, Potter County, Pennsylvania, Is a hole In the mountain from which flows freezing air. A man was sinking a well for mineral wealth. At the depth of twenty feet he was compelled to quit or freeze. About May Ice begins to form In It, and continues to freeze until October. There Is no Ice In the hole in winter. The warmer the day, the more Ice there Is In the mine. The air becomes more frigid the closer one goes to the cavern. There Is no water In the bottom of the shaft, but the water dripping down from Its sides freezes. The Ice begins to form less than a foot from the top and coats the sides of the shaft several Inches thick. What causes the Intense cold and where the air comes from are ques tions that have not been satisfactorily answered. Philadelphia Press. Diamonds Said to Be Alive. A diamond is as much alive as a man. Thus declares Professor von Schroen f the Naples University. According to him the so-called Inorganic bodies possess quite as much life as organic ones. He also claims to have photo graphs of the chief events in the life of a crystal, from its birth Inward. Ona of the most curious of these Is thus de- scnoea: "ine crystal meets another one from a different mother. The two strike at each other; they fight, strive and clasp with each other. It Is war to the death. It Is a case of the survi val of the fittest. One must die. Rm no two crystals from the same motherl eTer ngnt, no matter when they meet." In which particular crystals seem to bs superior to human beings. In seven cases out of ten, when i woman starts lown town to transad business, the law ought to stop her.
