AN ACCOMPLISHED MONKEY.
A 0himpansss that Blows Its EOss on 9
Handkerchief.

"Mrs. Rooney the female chimpan-
zee at the Geological garden has q very
bad cold in her head, and has been
taught TO use a handkerchiefwith all the
ease and grace of well-bred human
being. Yesterday she and "Pat Roo
ney," her husband, were as usual at
tracing Il great deal of attention from
the holiday visitors TO the garden, but
of all the varied assortment of tricks
and gymnastics with which they favored
their audience none created as much
amazement as when Mrs. Rooney would
sedately produce a small scrap of linen
from a corner of her cage and proceed
to gracefully blow her nose.
'How did you teach her that trick?"
asked lady of the keeper, who was
gazing fondly at his pets from outside
the bars,
"Oh, easy enough was the reply;
she and Pat scarcely need any teaching,
for they are so smart that if you do
something before them once or twice
and hold up bit of sugar at the same
time they will initiate your actions
at once, and in a day or so can be
taught new trick perfectly"
''Do they get along well together?"
asked another bystander.
''Yes, very WE'LL" said the keeper
"They are about the only pair in the
garden that don't squabble together,
more or less; in fact, the only pair at
all. SO far as l know-for even the tur-
tle-doves over in the bird house occa-
sionally peck at each other as fiercely
as couple of game-cocks. Still, I'm
sorry to say that Mr.. Rooney amt as
polite to his wife as he might be, and if
she wasn't blessed with the temper of
an angel-if there are any monkey an
gels-why sometimes there would be
war even in this cage.
He then proceeded to give the Chin
panzees their dinner, which consisted Of
soft boiled rice and sweet potatoes. Mr..
Rooney politely waited until his wife
was helped ('.It took good while to
teach him that" said the keeper,) and
then took his own share, which he bolt
cd in the most gluttonous fashion, and
then calmly scoOped in what was left of
his wife's portion. This act of robbery
the lady only repaid with reproving
look, and then climbed to high perch
with her handkerchief and blew her
nose violently, after which she laid
down and went to sleep, Mr.. Rooney
doing tho same after carefully arrang-
ing himself nest of straw and blan-
kets.- Philadelphia Record.

Ine Pleasure Of Freezing.

james Humphrey, Canadian, near
ly froze to death in recent storm,
when driving homeward from Wallace
town to Aldborough. He has since
given this description of his experience
to a correspondent of The 81. Thomas
Times: When he felt no longer able to
hold the reins with any grip he deter
mined TO seek shelter in the first house
until well warmed. His tongue be-
came stiff, then his arms; sharp chills
ran down his back, and finally it SEEM
ed as though his whole body was be-
ing CONCEALED, causing an almost total
cessation of the hearts action. This
condition of extreme suffering and des-
pondency speedily gave place to feel
ing of grateful warmth, suffusing the
system and causing an exhilarating
glow. BY this time he had reached q
house, but he drove on, thinking that
nothing was now to be feared. The
sleigh, instead of crawling along at a
snairs pace, appeared to glide through
the air with great swiftness, and the
horses fairly flew like pigeons. A sense
of exultation filed the farmers breast
as he urged the horses to still greater
speed, and the woods on each side were
passing SO quickly that they became
undistinguishable black lines. Then
the sleigh-bells sounded fainter and
fainter. until the chimes disappeared in
the distance; the farmer fell gradually
into delicious slumber, which came
near being the sleep that knows no
waking, and he knew no more until
brought to life under vigorous treat
ment.

About week ago piece of land
on the farm of Mr.. Rogers, near Chau,
mont, Jefferson county, N. Y, began
to rise. The mound rose about two
feet, and was about one rod wide by
two rods in length. A probe was
finally made by two civil engineers,
and, upon reaching depth of few
feet, stream Of water shot up several
feet into the air, and has continued to
flow ever since.

Because people have learned that in Its
remarks concering persons and affairs THE
Sun makes practice OF telling them the
exact truth to the best of its ability three
hundred and sixty-five days in the year,
before election as well as after, about the
whales as well as the small fish, in the face
of dissent as plainly and fearlessly as when

A PITTSBURGH iron manufacturer
tells Philadelphia Press reporter
that on tho whole he thinks the eet-
tlement of the tariff question for the
present will have favorable effect
on business but he is Of tho opinion
that at the coming May conference of
the iron and steel manufacturers it
will be found necessary to have a
material reduction in the present
scale of wages" Certainly. That is
the expedient these men always adopt
at once AMI think Of what further is
to be done later. Somsthing has hap
pened, they are told, that may affect
their trade one way or the other. In
stantly the response comes, "We will
cut down wages till we see how it
turns out" 1t may "iurn out" that
it helps trade, but still the men who
"took the risk" are entitled to be
compensated, they think, and in or Ter
to make sure of this they let the
wages stay down where they put
them. Many things have got to be
done before this is remedied, but one
of the FIRST of them IS the refusal by
workmen to shout and vote as these
men tell them.-Baltimors Day.

1t rs suggested that the CITY
Council pass an ordinance for the
regulation of hack charges. The
customary fares are not unreason-
able, but every few days we hear OF
cases where .hackmen have taken ad-
vantage of peoples ignorance or III
ability to prevent it, to extort OUT
raeeous fees. Strangers in particular
complain of the extortion when they
neglect to drive a bargain and agree
upon prices beforehand. The
charges for carrying passengers from
the depot range all the way from rs
cents to ST. according as the face OF
the victim indicates that he is a
Gtenderfoot" or is able to take
care of himself. There should be a
law grading prices with distances,
and making it a punishable offenst
TO charge more than the lawful
rates. This business is regulated
elsewhere, and can be arranged
| here.
