He Was Pretty Nearly Human.

He Was Pretty Nearly Human.
From the New York World.
The best known picture of Mr.. Crowley,
the late chimpanzee, represents him sit
ting in an armchair with skulls and books
about him, and was painted in 1885 by
j. ii. Beard, OF the national academy. "My
experience with Mr., Crowley" says Mr..
Beard, 'makes me believe that he has
mental ability that came very near to
reason, l finished my sketch at 8 O'Clock
one afternoon and stood it against the
wall, face outward, some eight feet from
the bars of Crowleys cage. When my
back was turned he caught sight of the
picture, and, thinking it was another chin
panzee, flew into rage and threw great
handful of wet sawdust so skillfuly that
it smirched the work from top to bottom.
1 shook my maui stick as if to beat him,
and spoke sharply to him. Crowley gri-
maced and danced furiously and threw
himself against the bars of his cage az if
he wanted to kill me. If ever simian
swore he did. He ragged for fully five
minutes. When he at last stood still
few seconds, l walked over to the cage and
said:
"Crowley, don't you think you ought to
be ashamed of yourself for spelling my
days work like thatH" As I spoke l
pointed at the picture and he broke into
his chimpanzee swearing again. Then
something in my voice held his attention
and he listened to me quietly, while Invent
on reproving him. talked to him quietly
but reproachfully, and he seemed almost
to understand. AS l went on he looked
at me, then at his portrait, and evidently
reflected that he had done something
wicked. He wondered for some minutes
with his eyebrows drawn into black knot.
At last he thrust out his great, hairy
arm through the bars and looked up at me
beseechingly, as if to ask me to shake
hands. l shook hands with him, and he
was so pleased at this sign of forgiveness
that he danced jig as an evidence that
there remained within not the slightest
vestige of i'll feeling. 1t was more than
16 months before 1 saw Crowley again, but
he recognized my face among a throng of
visitors, and, climbing up on his cage bars
shou ed and beckoned and would not stop
until came up and shook hands with him."
