A STRANGE CREATURE.
The Connecting Link Between Man
and M0nkey.

Mr.. Farini, says the New York Sun,
is now exhibiting at the Royal Aqua
rum in London a strange hairy little
creature named krao. krao is de-
scribed as a very bright looking, intel.
ligent girl of about seven years OF age.
She was caught, according to the ac-
count given OF her by Mr.. Farini, in
the forest near Laos, in Southeastern
Asia, and brought to England by Carl
Book, Norwegian. Hearing in various
quarters Of the existence OF race OF
hairy-tailed men similar in appearance
TO family kept at the Court OF Man
daay, he offered reward for the cap.
ture Of specimen. A man was caught,
and with him the child now exhibited,
and a woman OF similar appearance
then allowed herself to be taken.
When the little one attempted to wan
der her parents called her back with a
plaintive cry, "Krao," and the call has
been adopted as her name. The father
died at Laos Of cholera, and the King
refused to let the mother go; but Mr..
Book succeeded in getting the child TO
Bangkok, aud obtained permission from
the King of Siam to take her to Eng
land. The eyes Of the child are large,
dark, and lustrous; the nose is Hat
tened, the nostrils scarcely showing;
the cheeks are fat and pouch-like, the
lower lip only rather thicker than is
usual with Europeans; but the chief
popularity is the strong and abundant
hair. On the head it is black, thick
and straight, and grows over the fore
head down to the heavy eyebrows, and
is continued in whisker.li like locks down
the cheeks. The rest of the face is
covered with fine, dark, downy hair,
and the shoulders aud arms have a GOV.
ering of hair from an inch to an inch
aud half long There is, it is said, a
slight lengthening of the lower yer
tebre, suggestive of caudal protuber-
ance. and there are points in the mus
cular conformation and otherwise which
will provoke discussion. krao has
already picked up few words OF Eng
lish. She is said to be OF frank, affec.
tionate disposition, and shows truly
feminine delight in her clothes, jewelry
and ribbons. Mr.. Farini exhibits her

THE WORK OF Snow AND RAIN,

In many eases railroad traffic has
been delayed and telegraphic coinmu-
nication interrupted by the heavy fall
of snow and rain. Cincinnati seems
to have suffered the most serious dam
age. Cellars were flooded, roofs crush
ed in, and some boats swept from the
moorings. All freight trains on the
Louisville & Nashville road are stop
red. The roof of Harper's rolling
mill at Newport was crushed by snow,
involving considerable loss. The Gin
cinnati and Portsmouth narrow guage
railway bridge and the long iron tres
tie near California were torn down by
the food. The Oak-street tunnel on
the Cincinn9ti Northern Railway has
caved in. All trains are stopped. Four
hundred barrels of molasses at the foot
of Sycamore street consigned TO the
Little Miami, and Cincinnati. Hamil-
ton g. Dayton Railways was swept
away. The roof eff the Cincinnati

LUMBER AND SIT

From an interview with Congress
man tlorr in the Saginaw Courier.
If lumber should be PIT on the free
list il would naturally necossitate low
er wares for men who work in the
mills and camps in the United States
The amount of lumber made in Cana-
da, however, is so small com pared with
the product of the States. that | am
inclined to think the Canadian manu-
facturers would put up the price of
their lumb Der instead of reducing tha
price here, which would result in the
loss to our government of the dutic.
now received, and would effect the
price to our customers very little
However, 81 o I'D lumber be dull of
sale, then the increased shipment from
Canada would d;range the market and
prove disastrous to our lumbermen.
What our manufacturers need is the
full use of our American markets.
But the effect on salt would be more
disastrous. The salt works of the Uni
ted States can furnish all the SAL need
ed by our people and not be worked to
their full capacity. Hence they need
our entire market. Anysurplus thrown
upon the market would of necessity
produce a glut which always leads to
depression and lower prices. Salt is
now so cheap that to lower the price
would be to cripple the manufacturers
especially in New York and Ohio.
TO put salt on the free Inst would of
necessity end in low wages for the men
making it, and | fear will end in ruin.
to men in the United States who are
engaged in that industry. There is no
article in our markets that has been
improved and cheapened by fostering
and building up our home production
of it more than alt, and yet from the
earliest days of the republic down to
the present time it has been a bone OF
contention between protsctionsta and
free traders. 1t grows out of the fact
that it is an article of prime necessity,
and people do not stop to consider how
little of it each person uses or how
very cheap it has come to be produced
on account of the competition between
our home manufacturers. Were it not
for the efforts of salt importers the
question of tariff on salt would never
be mentioned

A prominent farmer of this county
said TO us few days ago: :" 1t will be
n tal go on the farmers Of northern
Michigan If the democrats succeed in
taking the duty off lumber Already
lumbermen are afraid and camps will
run light this winter Many of our
farmers depend upon earning a few dol
lars during the winter months i'm the
lumber woods or by sending their teams
there, but there is little show for that
this winter, even, and il this duty is
taken off lumber. there will be NIGH.
ty poor show for us i'm this respect in
the future. And then, you know, we've
supplied these camps for years with hay
and such surplus products as our farms
provided, and the removal of the tariff
on lumber will be the means of closing
most of these lumber camps, and thus
our home market will b. shut off.
