The Habits Of MonkeYs.

Rengger, who studied the American
monkeys carefully, says that they evi-
IDENTIFY understand each others ges-
lures, and this is evident enough to all
who spend a little time in a large col
lection of them They have their likes
and disikes, and submit to be leased
and bullied by some favOrite. although
OF different species; the contrary, how
ever, is the usual occurrence. and they
resent familiarities very readily. Per
haps the most amusing instance of this
fondness Is given by MIR Darwin, who
had il from the Superintendent Of the
Gardens. Two chimpanzees, which
were rather older animals than those
usually brought to England, were in
trOduced to each other for the first
time. ''They sat opposite, touching
each other with their much prOtruding
lips, and the one put his hand on the
shoulder of the other. They then
mutually folded each other in their
arms. Afterward they stood up, each
with one arm on the shoulder Of the
other, lifted up their heads, opened
their mouths, and yelled with delight. a"
MIR. Bartlett, of the Geological Gar
dens, states that the faculty of atten-
ton which is necessary for imitation.
obedience and teaching is a very vari-
able one among the same species of
monkeys, and told Mr. Darwin the fol-
lowing anecdOte: ssA man who trains
monkeys to act used to purchase com
mon kinds from the Geological Society
at the cost of E5 for each, but he offered
to give double that price if he might
keep three or four of them for a few
days in order to select one. When
asked how he could possibly so soon
learn whether a particular ISOnkeY
would turn out a good actor, he ans
sWered that it all depended on their
power Of attention. If when he was
talking and explaining anything to a
monkey its attention was easily dis
tracted, as by a fly on the wall or other
triHing object, the case was hopeless.
IF he tried punishment to make an in
attentive monkey act it turned sulky.
On the other hand, q monkey which
carefully attended TO him could always
be trained. CGSSeLFS Natural History.

On Thursday afternoon game was played
between an awkward squad of the Westmin-

ca Club, the latter winning the game by
score of 10 to Il. The game was remarkable
for errors and general lack of knowledge of
the game. Allgire's run on a fly ball neatly
taken in, and his brilliant play at the third
base, where he was caught mapping and was
put cut, were features of the game. Keen
was principally admired for punching out, or
his 2.06 gate after he had gotten base on
balls. The others of the Department were
principally conspicuous for doing nothing
brilliant Bad errors on the part of the Young
Americas allowed the Firemen to score in
one inning.

Baltimore, will play the Westminster club on
the Association grounds here this Saturday
afternoon.

Family Reunion.

That very familiar and unpretending old
homestead, somewhat remotely situated from
the public road leading from Westminster to
Manchester, about two miles west of the latter
named place, commanding a view of one of
the most beautiful valleys our county displays
to the lovers of nature, and quietly occupied by
Judge Elias Myerly, his venerable companion,
together with his only daughter, constituting
the entire family, was relieved gifts usual
tranquility on Saturday, May 31st. The
Judges family originally consisted of four sons
and one daughter. The sons have all married
and removed with their respective families to
different sections of the state, the only daugh-
ter remaining unmarried constituting part of
his present family. le .E. ...H
In commemoration of his sixty-sixth ami
versary, the Judge selected to celebrate the
same by summoning around him his entire
family, including the sons wives and grand
children, numbering in all twenty six, all of
whom responded, with the exception of one
grandson, who was unable to be present. 1t
was an eyentfnl and propitious day, every one
seemingly happy gathered together in one
chattering group under the hospitable roof of
the father and grandfather. AT about o'clock,
P. NJ, this happy group were collected to-
gether into the old dining room, where sump
tous dinner was prepared with bountiful
supply of good things, to which ample justice
was done. The old Judge seemed highly de-
lighted, and after taking survey ofhis guests,
pleasantly remarked, that in all his life, he
had had never seen so many Myerlys in one
group.
The hospitable manner in which all were
received, assured them that they were welcome
and will ever be remembered and appreciated.

The citizens of Westminster have been sur.
feited with entertainments for more than q
month past, consequently there was not Il
very large audience at Albaugh's Grand Opera
House last Monday night, at the presentation
of Franz Won Suppe's comic opera, ''The
Lovely Galatea." The dress circle was well
filled, and orchestra chairs about half, with a
very select audience.
The opera was well given, the singing and
acting being fine. 1t would be hard to con-
ceive of better personation of the character
of Midas, the Jew, than was rendered by Mr..
Edward Macy, who possesses an excellent
bass voice. Miss Susie Maffit, as Ganymede,
stood next in favor with the audience. Her
parts were all well sung, but in the acting she
rather overdid it, while Miss Mamie Kunkel,
as Galatea, was rather too tame in her acting.
Both Miss Kunkel and Mr.. Charles Kaiser,
Jr., sang well, the former having a sweet So
prano and the latter rich tenor.
There were some local hits i'll the opera,
and it was enjoyable throughout. All were
repeatedly applauded, and Miss Mafit was
brought back several times in the couplets,

Children's Day was celebrated at Centenary
N. E. Church, this city, on Sunday last. A
with flowers. At 104, a. m, the entire school
appeared on the platform, Rev. Mr.. Heyde
made an address, and good singing was given
by the school. The night services were held
at p. M, when the platform was almost a
bower of roses. The most delightful part of
the programme was flower song by twenty
four young ladies, four of them representing
the seasons. 1.-The Beauty of Early Piety,"
was also well rendered. All the singing at
night was excellent, The school raised sixty,
eight dollars toward the erection of semina.
ry in Baltimore, to be under the direction of
the NJ E. Church. The basket collections of
both morning and night were very good. The
audience dispersed well pleased with the ex-
ercises.
