More than thirty page of the bulletin
Just issued by the Smithsonian institute
on "Skeletal Remains Suggeated or Attri
buted to Early Man in North America" la
devoted to a discussion of the remains of
ths "Loees" man. discovered burled in the
bluffs north of Florence by Robert F. Gli
der of Omaha. The bulletin la complied by
Ales Hrdlicka. The report embcg'.e a de
tailed account of ths finding of the re
mains and a minute description of the
skulls that were excavated. Extracts from
a number of paper which have been writ
ten on the subject are also Included In the
report.
In summing up his conclusions the writer
declares evidence is yet to be produced
that c.-ly man existed In North America
Continuing he says:
"Referring particularly to the Nebraska
'Loess' n an. the mind searvt.es in vain for
solid ground on which to bass an estimate
of more than moderate antiquity for the
G.Mer mound specimens. The evidence as
a whole only strengthen the above conclu-'
slon that the exiotence on thia continent
of a ma of distinctly primitive typs and
ef exceptional geoluawal antiquity has sot
yet been proved-"

' An experienced shopper tells us that she can do
twice as much shopping in the forenoon as in the after
noon, with one-half the fatigue.
She says there are no crowds then; that she has no
difficulty in obtaining a seat in the street cars; that she is
waited upon more promptly at all the stores and that the
clerks are more courteous and take more pains to show
goods, because they, like herself, are not tired at that time
of the day.
Knowing this to be true, we suggest to all ladies able
to do so, to try this plan and do their shopping in the
early part of the day.

CHICAGO, Dec. .-Befor the American
Base Ball association officially decides
upon placing a team In Chicago it must
settle what promise to be a sharp con
troversy within Its own membership.
The contest over thl Important proposi
tion is due to come up December 28, the
data When the American association will
convene in this city In annual meeting.
For the association to enter Chicago the
vote would have to be unanimous, and. as
several of the magnates are determined
to go through with that project, it is un
known what pressure may be brought to
bear on: ths other.
A member of the American association
said that every club owner In that league
wa In favor of coming Into Chicago, but
that two or three of them would hold
baek for what they term "proper condi
tions." Thoae condition mean permission
from ths National and American leagues.
Ths other member are in favor of coming
In and then asking "what are you going
to do about UT" A there Is no chance to
get the major league' permission, ths
mors warlike of the association magnates
ars wondering bow much persuasion thsy
will hsvs to us upon their fellow mag
nate. Brycs of ths Columbus club, reputed to
be the best money maker in the American
association, refuse to jeopardize his busi
ness by getting Into a base ball war.
Haw ths Magmate Staaa.
Watkins of Indlanaroli snd Armour of
Toledo, who ars on the doubtful list, are
not expected to stand as firm against the
Invasion as Bryca. Havenor of Milwaukee,
M. E. Cantillon of Minneapolis and Geoig
Tebea-J. who controls ths Kansas City and
Louisville clubs, are all strong far tlis
entry Into Chicago. O. E. Lcnnon. owner
of the St. Paul franch!e. la placed In a
delicate position. He has been anxious
to get out of base ball, but in dispos.ng of
hi club naturally want to see tha learn
kept in St. Paul.
Cantillon. Havenor and Tebeatl believe
that tha National and American league
will give them permission to place a team
In Clikago rather than precipitate another
ruinous base ball war.
James Callahan, who egpect to get tho
St. Paul franchise take strenuous excep
