Crowley's worst quality is the irresistible
propensity to destroy every object he can lay
lis hands on, including live animals. A dog
r cat he will almost instantly tear to pieces;
n fact, the sight OF n small animal seems to
put him into fury. A tiny monkey brought
by a lady on her shoulder made him so wild
that he acted like maniac: he threw hand
full after handful of sawdust all over his
audience; he shook the bars of his cage with
suggestive violence: he put up his lips like
trumpet and cried Hoo hoo," at it; he tore
around the cage in q transport, and lastly be
spit 1T it, This is one Of the bad tricks he
has learned FROM i'll bred and teasing boys
who visit him. and he has become so expert
that ne can reach his mark eight feet away
During the above exhibition Of temper the
unfortunate little creature, a beautiful SPUR
rel monkey, six inches long, was out Of its
senses with fright, cLattered and fairly
screamed in terror.
This lamentable destructive tendency de-
mands strong guard rail before the cage at
the length of Mr. Crowley's arm for he is
always ready TO thrust out one of those long,
sinewy members and snatch at hat, parasol,
or anything he can reach; once in his clutches
it is lost. a park policeman stood one day
talking to him, inside the rail by virtue Of
his Office. Crowley sat on the floor close by
the bars, absorbed in contemplation of his
brand new white gloves. Very gently he
pulled the tips Of the fingers one after the
other, quietly loosening them, till suddenly,
like a flash, he snatcbed it Off and bounded
to the back Of his cage In vain the hapless
policeman commanded and coaxed, begged
ana threatened Mr. Crowley, entirely tln-
moved, sat calmly down to enjoy his prize.
First be put it on his hand, using his teeth to
help, and then held IL up for the audience TO
see, with every finger spread, gTinning with
delight. But not being able to arrange it to
his satisfaction he tore it TO strings, and
passed a happy fifteen minutes while reduc-
ing it to its primitive state Of thread, holding
one part in the bend of the thigh-the
monkeys convenient pocket-while he worked
on another.
On another occasion one of the park men
went inside Of the rail to speak to the CHM
panzee Crowley sat quietly on the floor
looking at him and thrusting his hands out
TO play, SIS was his custom.
Look out, there!" warned the keeper
"Oh, Mr. Crowley knows me-" was hardly
out of his mouth in response before Mr..
Crowley fastened his fingers upon the lapels
of his coat, one on each side, and gave them
such jerk that the man was dashed violently
against the bars, and the coat split down the
back like so much paper.-Olive Thorne Mil

Two Classes of Eusslan Priests

The priesthood Of the Russian church
is composed of two classes, the white and
black clergy. The latter are monks be-
longing TO the several orders Of religious
seclusion, and from their numbers all the
bishops and higher ecclesiastical officials
are chosen. They ars teachers in the
schools, also tutors in the families Of the
mobiles, and many Of them have been cele-
brated for their scholarship, their artistic
genius and literary gifts Ascetcism is
not practiced as it is in the Roman church,
except by certain orders in nonAstic life
and in the fuIfillment Of vows. During
the last century the church estates were
secularizei and coniscated by the crown;
then the emancipation Of the se-fs de-
prived the religious orders of a great part
Of their wealth. some of the monasteries
owning %. 900, 80, 600 and even SO, 900
serfs. This was q severe blow to them,
and only a few, such as were possessed OF
other wealth. survived il AT present
there are about SO nonastic establish

Of them are wealthy.

The "Confession" Album, the Silhouette

1.-THE album craze has about reached It's
height. don't see how it can go much fur
ther.n said the manager of enc of the larges,
fancy stationery and book houses In the city.
Among the young ladies there is no end Of
albums, and they are of all sorts imaginable
The confession album is very popular JUS
now. 1t has on each page list or questions
to which the young lady's friends write an
swers in the blanl. places opposite them, tell
ing what are their ideal virtues, their favor.
tie authors, their favorite flowers, their idcS
of beauty in art, in nature, and all that sort
Of thing. 1t is supposed that when friend
has answered his list of questions the young
lady has pretty good idea OF MS character,
but, OF course, most of the young men try to
be funny, SO the book becomes practically use
less FOR the purpose for which 1t is intended.
Another album is one in which young
lady pas.es on the white page black silhoa-
cite of each OF her friends. A piece Of
white paper is tackled to the wall, q bright
lamp is set upon the table near it, and the
friend is seated between the lamp and the
paper, so that the shadow of his profile is
thrown upon the paper. The young lady
then traces the outline of the shadow and az
terward cuts out the picture. This makes
the pattern. The picture then only has to be
cut out of black paper and pasted on the
white page of the album. These are fire.
quently pretty good Licensees, the only flaws
in them being usually accounted for by the
subjects inability TO sit still enough
Then there are dozens and dozens of other
kinds of albums. There are those in which
the shapes of young mems heads are kept.
The young men have impressions taken by
their matters and send them to the young Ia
dies Others are for recording the shape and
size of young mems feet, as furnished by the
shoemakerS Still others contain imprints OF
hands, or photographs of merely the eyes, OF
the nose, or an ear, a mustache, a chin, &

A LEGACY.
Friend of my n,n,,u ranroI

Friend of my many years.
When the great silence falls at last on me,
Let me not leave to pain and sadden thee
memory of tears.
But pleasant thoughts alone
or one who was thy friendships honore6 guest,
And drank the wine of consolation pressed
From sorrows of thine own
leave with thee a sense
or hands upheld and trials rendered less
The unsel1ish JOY which is TO helpfulness
Its own great recompense;
The knowledge that from thine,
As from the garments Of the master, stole
CalmneSs and strength the virtue which nakea
whole
And heals without sign;
Yes more, the assurance strong
That love, which fails Of perfect atterancc here,
Lives on to ill the heavily atmosphere
With its immortal song.
