Apes rs Dinner. Companions.


The development Of the ape race has
not, il IS confessed, kept pace with that
of man, whichever had the start, or
supposing they had common origin.
But according TO the report of Isabella
l.. Bird, the apes of Malacca are getting
on verv well, considering the backward
ness of education in those parts. When
this adventurous traveller reached tho
British Residency at Kwala Kangsa. a
town in the interior, Mr.. Low, the
Resident, was absent, and she found
herself the only white person in the re-
gion and in possession of the house.
But as her arrival had been expected,
the Malay and Chinese servants were
very attentive to her comfort. She was
received by a magnificent Oriental
butler, had a delicious bath, and was
served with dinner, in which the linen,
china, crystals, flowers, and cooking
were alike exquisite. Her valise had
not arrived, and having made the
Journey partly on an elephant and part
ly on foot through the jungle, she was
not in a presentable dress for dinner,
and noticing that the table was set for
three, she waited on the veranda, fear
ing that couple of Government clerks
might appear in evening dress. But
the butler emphaiically announced that
the meal was ''served," and she sat
down to the welI-appointed table, when
the butler led in large ape, and the
servant small one, both Of which were
seated at the table, and Sikh brought
in large retriever and tied him to her
chair. These were Mr.. Lows pets and
daily companions. This was all done
with perfect solemnity, and the dinner
proceeded with stateliness. The apes
had their curry, chutney, pineapple,
eggs and bananas on porcelain plates,
and so had the guest. The chief differ
ence was that while she waited to be
helped, the big ape was impolite enough
Gas if he had been at picnic) occasions
ally to snatch something from dish as
the butler passed around the table, and
the small one before long migrated from
his chair to the table, and, sitting by
the lady's plate, delcately helped him
self from it. She declares that it was
grotesque but most enjoyable dinner
party, because it required no CONVERSE
tional effort and her companions were
interesting. Hartford Coitraat.

How Granite Columns are Polished.

The word 'granite9 generally con-
veys the idea Of roughness, coarseness
and solidity. The idea of finish, smooth
ness and polish does not, in the popular
mind, belong to the material. But most
kinds of granite are susceptible of
beautiful and almost faultless surface
finish. The effect Of this finish in con-
trast with the hammered faced granite,
on monuments where q tablet is surface
polished, or lines Of lettering are in
brilliant contrast with the dull gray Of
the unpublished stone, is very fine, espe-
cially so when the shafts of columns are
thus finished, the bases being hammered
and the capitals carved. As this finish
can now be obtained by machinery at a
low cost, the possibilities Of obdurate
granite for ornamental as we'll as for
building purposes have been greatly en-
larged. s
Granite columns. vases and similar
cylindrical ornaments are polished in a
lathe. This differs but little from an
ordinary machinist's lathe, except that
q continuous bed is not necessary TO hold
the lathc heads. that the spindle of the
foot stock revolves as we'll as that OF the
head stock and that no tool carriage

/ Stage Over 4 California precipice.

The stage-eoach which runs daily
between Santa Barbara and Los Alamos
was wrecked the other afternoon about
ten or twelve miles from this city The
grade from the mountain-top to Goleta
is steep and intricate, winding in and
out and round all sorts of ugly corners
and projecting rocks till the road
merges into the plain by the seaside.
The stage southwark bound started
from San Marcus Pass about three
o'clock. Ii was driven by William Butt
teriield, who bears the reputation of
being one of the most careful and rela-
BILE drivers in California. There were
only two passengers on the stage and
these were inside, having been directed
by the driver to get inside TO balance
the coach going down the grade. They
had ridden with the driver up the
mountain, and reluctantly climbed into
the coach to make the descent of the
mountains.
Soon after leaving steep, rocky
slope on the mountain-side, rightly
named "Slippery Rock and whore
the descent is at an angle of forty-iive
degrees, with sheer fall of precpitous
rocks of fully two hundred feet on one
side. one of the lead horses became I'M
manageable and started to run. Butt
terlield did his best to hold in his team.
The brakes were put on tight and as
the horses commenced TO go at a reck-
less, break-neck speed down the crook
ed, rocky, narrow incline, the driver
realized the impossibility of stopping
them. There were several miles of Il
steep grade below, and it was narrow,
rocky and crooked. To stay on the
stage was to go over a preeipice and he
dashed to pieces Having decided that
the stage could not be saved, Butterlield
shouted to the two passengers inside to
''jump out and save your livesp' At
the same time the driver dropped lines
and whip and sprang from his seat upon
the rocky bank on the off side of the
team, One of the passengers jumped
and landed all right, but the other one
in jumping sprained his right foot and
ankle, and reopened an old wound upon
his left leg
The stage a minute after went over a
precipce into a chasm on the left of the
road about two hundred feet deep The
jerk with which il went over broke the
couplings from the two lead horses,
which went galloping down the road
unhurt. The wheel horses were dragged
backward by the stage-coach, and went
all together to the bottom of the preci.
pice. The stage was badly wrecked,
and the baggage reduced to small
pieces. Singular to relate, the two
horses which were dragged after the
stage were found among the wreck al
most unhurt. - SANTA BGrbard (Cdi.

Our Sea Farms.

Prof Huxley says that our deep-sea
fisheries can never be exhausted. The
entire catch of Goldfish on the coasts of
Norway and the United States is but an
insignificant fraction of the myriads of
that fish which visit the northern shores
of Northern Europe and Eastern
North America. The annual catch of
herring would not supply weeks con-
sumption to an ordinary shoal of cod
fish, and yet as much herring is eaten
by man as all other fish put together
An acre Of water will supply more food
for man than an acre of the best arabic
land. There is a shallow lagoon in the
Adriatic Sea covering 10000 acres of
surface. For great number of years
it has added five hundred weight of fish
to the acreAabout double the quantity
of food that can beaderived from the
most fertile land. Hence, oceans and
deep seas can always be depended upon
to supply unlimited quantities of food
to mankind. no matter how dense the
population of the globe may finally
become. But this remark does not
apply TO in-shore, lake, and. river fish
cries. The supplies of salmon. shad,
oysters. and Holsters can be reduced,
unless the waters are intelligently re-
stocked. Prof Huxley paid high
compliment to the United States for the
prudent treatment Of its STREAMS and
coast lines in the re stocking of delicious
fish The labors of Prof. Baird and his
Fish Commission have been Of immense
