Great numbers of citizens took Dr, Macgillivray--Modern Barbar: isms, "Prehistoric Man" was the sub- ject of an illuminating and instrue- tive address which Rev. Dr. Macgilli- vray delivered to the students o Queen's Summer School in the phys- ies room of the University Tuesday afternoon. Speaking in the rough, declared the speaker, prehistoric man, first and last, belonged to the age of stone--the age when all hu- man implements were of wood or stone, Previous to the coming of prehistoric man there was the ape- man or the man-ape, the connecting link between higher apes and man. Prehistoric Hearth, Coming to prehistoric man, the speaker told of the unearthing of a hearth in Jersey, at depth of twenty feet. In this hearth 'were the big stones that had propped up the fire, and there were the ashes. And scat- tered around were the charred re- mains of food-refuse. Some of the bones belonged to the wooly rhinoe- eros, some to the mammoth, some to the horse and some to the reindeer. Amongst the food-refuse were found thirteen human teeth, which be- longed to a person between twenty and thirty years of age, and the den- tal expert said that their roots beat all records. The anatomist stated that this indicated an immensely powerful jaw and massive brow- ridges, a human of average brain and very early type. Those who feasted around that fire left plenty of their knives lying about--well- made flint knives, The legitimate inference was that here in this shelter was a rendezvous of hunters of the ice-age, who could kill the biggest beasts that roamed the plains, and then carve and cook a lusty steak, lick their %hops over roast and marrow, sit around a roar- ing fire and have a good time, and keep theshuman race going 250,000 years ago! Development of Man. The development of pre-historic man was traced in graphic and witty words. The human type ad- vanced until there came the new age of stone. Flint weapons and uten- sils were polished to a smooth sur- face. Pottery was invented. Cave shelters and dwellings were in more comymon use. The men of this age began the domestication of animals, probably first turning the wolf into that most inexplicable friend of man, the dog. Herdifg and primitive husbandry were begun and roaming and hunting declined. Settled life began and communities appeared. Conditions became better, and the etchings on ivory and bone and the remarkable sketches and paintings of animals in the caves of the Pyrenees showed that the neolithic man was no mean artist: Low Necks and Short Skirts. In a rock shelter in Catalonia in Spain a remarkable group of paint- ings was found some years ago, re- presenting young 'women wearing dresses low in the neck and short in the skirt, like a fashion plate of last week, but without shoes, and the hair gathered at the top of the head and quite artistically arranged. The figures were supple and graceful in silhouette, and about ten inches high. The colors were red and yel- low ochre, white chalk and carbon. These drawings were very, very old, probably belonging to pleistocene time, 50,000, 60,000, 100,000 years ago or more. In one sense the man of to-day was far removed from the primitive conditions of his race. In another sense he was not far removed, and still. shared, to an astonishing de- gree, of primitive ideas, primitive defects and primitive shortcomings. The Savage Reappears. "The atrocities committed by our {enemy in the present war," declared the speaker, "show what a foul beast may lurk beneath the whitest skin, the shapeliest head and the widest knowledge. We have far to go yet to wipé out the beast, and let the ape and tiger die." To show that prehistoric baseness still existed, the speaker told of the devilish work done by the Austrians in a drug store in the Serbian town of Shabbatz, which they captured and sacked. down- the druggist returned to see whether anything of his shop had been left standing. He found the shelves, with their contents, appar- ently untouched, but he decided to Hl examine some of the drugs, liquids nd powders, only to discover, to his Hl! horror, that the poisons had been mixed up with the harmless drugs, and packages put Death was in and a skilled Nothing primitive or savage could surpass the nameless barbarism and badness of an act like that. Man had not changed as much as he might vainly think tifat he had. Prof. MacClement, director of the school, conveyed the thanks of the interested audignce to Dr. MacGilliv- ray. J. T. Curtis, of Ottawa, a student Hl ot the school, also said a few words of praise. On exhibition were several articles There was also an excellent piece of pottery Hl! exhibited, which was founggin Pitts- | burg township. Timms Improving. Mrs. T. W.

Ottawa, July 12.---An Ottawa sol- dier writing to his friends at home from the trenches in Belgium says: "A wonderful thing happened on our front the other day. The Huns counter-nfined one of our tunnels and caught 12 of our men in the 'face.' One man used his head, moved back at once to where the mine broke through so as to get as much fresh air as possible. He then made a bed of sand bags and lay down to wait for any possible chance there might be'of being dug out. He had nothing to eat or drink, and after six and a half days the tunnel was opened. "An officer went in and found that eleven of the men were dead, but could not find the 12th. When he came out of the tunnel he found that the twelfth man had crawled out of the hole on his own steam. "Not only had he a record of the days he was in, but also a lot of valuable information as to sounds of tunnelling that the Bosches were doing. Hé surely had a wonderful vitality.' = Street Car Hit. vo About 6.30 o'clock on Tuesday evening a street car was hit by a passing automobile at the corner of Barrie and Princess streets.
