Nichol of Mountain Ancestor. "No scientific theory has ever been given out claiming that we originated from monkeys or apes," said Dr. David Starr Jordan, chancellor emeritus of Stanford University, at the First Unitarian church yesterday, speaking on "The Origin of Man." "No one with eyes open to the facts of life as disclosed all around us can look an animal In the fare and question the truth of evolution," said Dr.

Jordan. "The term 'evolution' is unfortunate since it means an unrolling. An unrolling connotes something rolled up. Sfience" is concerned with facts and where facts stop, science stops, or. thereabouts.

scientists deal with facts which we ran find out, an4 no one can tell us what we may find out. We are primarily concerned with nature, and we must study what nature teaches. "Evolution In brief means orderly change. Your dog changes. If you have a series of pictures of yourself in various periods of your life you will note changes going on in yourself.

Nothing in nature is not undergoing change. "Darwin was not the first to suspect the truth of evolution, -but he was the first to know Just how evolution worked. There are many people now claiming that Darwin is a back number, but in the same sense Jesus Christ is a back number, and so are all the great men who have blazed paths of truth through the jungle of ignorance." Dr. Jordan told of the development of life from the single-celled denizens of the sea, demonstrating the fact of natural selection, the persistence of the strong and the cutting off or destruction of the weak. Whether in the plant or animal kingdom he declared that life did not fit Into the scheme of things, that was not adaptable to conditions, died off.

He spoke on the influence of heredity and unhesitatingly declared that the world Is getting better. 1 1 S. F. GANGSTERS OAKLAND PICKED BYMEHGHANT FOB KIDNAP. ATTACK MARRIED MAN 'Queen California' Will Rule Diamond Jubilee View, at the Seventh-Day Ad-ventist camp meeting last night before an audience of 5000 persons, speaking on the subject of "Evolu- tion Exploded.

"This I claim," continued Elder 'Nichols," is adding Insult to injury- First they injure us by saying that a monkey is our father, and now they-insult us by saying we don't know who our father is. "Examiningythe four lines of alleged evidence-fir evolution, we consider first, the origin of life. The only fact about this is that life comes only from pre-existing life, and this directly contradicts evolution. "rom comparative anatomy (the comparison of similar structures) we see no evidence of a descent, but rather a master mind designing a single plan that, by suitable variations, perform the same service in different animals. As for example, in the work of man, the highly developed aeroplane engine is not evolved from a simple pumping engine; but we see the same design in each varied according to the service required.

The evidence from embryology has been repudiated by some of the foremost embryologists of the world as too uncertain and equivocal to be conclusive." In this connection In paying his respects to the claims of the evolutionists that the appendix and other portions of o.ur bodies are merely vestigial remains of former used organs, Dr. Nichol said that formerly the thyroid gland was classed as such a vestigial remnant. "This almost gives one a cold chill, because if the doctors had worked on that theory and removed that gland from our forefathers, we would not have had any illustrious ancestors, for they would have all died In the home for the feeble-minded." ceremonies of "Queen California" will be the most brilliant feature of the opening program.

WILSON CHANGED MIND ON TREATY; SO BRYAN QUIT DES MOINES, Aug. 10. OP) The Des Moines Register today published a copyrighted article, based on an interview with II. C.

Evans, editor of the Yeoman Shield, saying the resignation of William Jennings Bryan from President Wilson's cabinet in 1915, was due to failure by the United States to ratify a proposed treaty with 32 nations stipulating that each would wait nine months after any difficulty arose before declaring war. The article said that after Bryan had convinced President Wilson that this country should sign the treaty and also allow Germany to sign it, he filed a cablegram informing the Ger-ma'n government of the progress being made.

A popularity contest for the choice of a young woman to be crowned "Queen of California," has been announced at the tieadquarters for California's Diamond Jubilee celebration. General Thornwall Mul-lally, chairman of the committee for the opening ball, made the announcement, and stated that the contest would be opened in the near future.

Industrial and fraternal or ganizations throughout the city that they plan to enter candidates in the race. It is announced that the contest will not be confined to San Francisco, but will be open to candidates all over the state.

William Jennings Bryan was "thoroughly misunderstood" by- great numbers of his countrymen, William Gibbs McAdoo declared at memorial services for tho commoner here last night. The wartime secretary of the treasury cited Bryan's resignation from the Wilson cabinet as n. case in point. Both Bryan and President Wilson, he said, "were animated by precisely the same purpose to protect American rights and to avoid by every honorable means armed conflict with any of the belligerent powers during tho European war Their differences were merely differences of opinion as to the best method of accomplishing this purpose, not a fundamental clash of Ideals. "Mr.

Bryan was an honest man," continued the speaker, "a man of unimpeachable integrity. There is no blot upon his escutcheon. "In these days of low political morality, what a glorious encomium it Is to be called -'an honest "And he was a Christian. He died defending his faith rflied, no doubt, as he wcld ha've chosen if he had been permitted to make the choice." CHICAGO, Aug. 10.

Judge John T. Raulston of Tennessee has paid Clarence Darrow in his own coin, right in the lawyer's home town. In a dramatic eulogy of William Jennings Bryan at memorial services here Sunday the judge who presided over the recent Scopes trial fired a bitter verbal broadside at Darrow. Moved at times to tears, Judge Raulston professes his faith in the fSod of Bryan and denounced the "agnostic lawyer who tried to destroy Mr. Bryan politically and in every way he could." The speaker, who was the object of an attack by Darrow during the trial at Dayton, for which the lawyer afterwards apoligized and was forgiven, carried the meeting by storm and it was an hour before hp could leave the hall after the services, so many persons wished to shake his hand.

At times during his speech Judge Raulston wept, especially when moved by his own reference to the possibility of his parents having sprung from lower forms of animal life. "Mr. Bryan didn't believe in evolution and I don't believe in it, either," the judge said. "I don't believe God made a miserable monkey and then let nature do the rest. I believe in a God that can answer prayers in a real God, not a wooden God." WASHINGTON, Aug.

10. (Pi-Friends of William Jennings Bryan are considering the erection of a suitable monument to replace the wooden slab that now marks his grave in Arlington National cemetery. The will of the commoner, probated Saturday in Miami, made a brief provision for "the use of such sum as my wife and children may deem proper for the purchase of a monument to mark my grave. That this request, however, will be supplemented by the contributions from his many friends and admirers seems most probable, especially in view of the announcement in Chicago yesterday of the launching of a national-wide movement to obtain funds for the erection of a memorial. Miss Dionessa Bryan Evans, goddaughter of the Commoner, in making the announcement in Chicago, said a site had been donated for the monument at Clewiston, but it was the belief here that this plan might be changed or another move started to aid in the erection of a shrine to Bryan in the capital city.
