JOCKo SAVED HIS LIFE.
Curious Experience of Partisan
Youth and His Pet MonkeY

An INSTANCE of the instinct and f1del-
ity of a young monkey comes from
Batignolles, suburb of Paris. A little
+: boy $50 says a French journaD. the son
of an inhabitant of that part of the city,
was playing in one of the rooms Of
his fathers fiat with the monkey,
which is most intelligent and domes-
ticated member of its species. The boy,
IN fit OF Juvenile caprice, tied the
cord of window-blind around his neck
and pretended to hang himself, to the
immense amusement of his simian play
mate, which grlnned and chatted
on chair. Suddenly the boy be-
came ,livid and began to cry, for the
cord had got into real moose around
his neck. In very short space of time
: the monkey took in the situation and
tried to undo the moose with his paws,
but had to give up the attempt. 1t then
hoped away to another room, where
the boys grandmother was sitting,
and began pulling at her gown, to
chatter. grimace, and look wistfully at
the door. At first, thinking that the
animal wanted to bite her, the lady was
frightened, but, seeing that it was en-
deavoring with might and main to drag
her toward the door, she rose from her
seat and went, piloted by the monkey,
to the room where her grandson was
moaning. The boy was instantly eX-
treated from his periIous position,
though it was some time before he re-
covered from his pain and fright
authority for this strange narrative, re-
ceived nice little tablet of chocolate

The Corporation Counsel Middle.

To the Editor of the Globe. -
The attempt to elect another city at
torney in place Of Mr.. Murray, who
was chosen by the council the 5th inst,
was on the ground that the election of
Mr.. Murray was illegal because the act
did not express itself in the title. the
words land other purposes" being used.
If this is true, the second election
choosing Mr.. Holman is no better, be-
cause the first act, the amendment of
which, making the first Tuesday of
March the day, and under which Mr..
Murr1y was elected, was drawn the
same way; consequently, if one cleo
ton is illegal then the other must be.
The writer does not know of any rule
that will cure one illegal act by commit
ing another. The only way to test the
validity of Mr.. Murray's election would
be by quo warranto. Mandamus
would never do it. But outside
of this, changing the city attor-
ney at this time, unless the sue
ceSs0r had vast knowledge of munich
pal affairs, would be very unwise.
The position of the city of st. Paul to-
day requires the wisest of counsel, and
only man of large and varied expert.
ence should receive the Office. Now,
whatever many persons think of w. P.
Murray. none can Qeny the TACT tnaG ne
is eminently competent to fill the inn
portant trust. reposed in him. There is
no doubt that Mr.. Holman is an excel
lent young man; but excellence Zone,
without the necessary experience,
would not be sufficient recommendation
to enable him to fill the position. That
experience he certainly has not, nor
could he get 1T for years to come. AS
before stated, st. Paul cannot at this
juncture afford to try experiments, and
the homely but trite aphorism of Presi-
dent Lincoln, to never swop horses
when you are crossing a stream" is
good and should be observed now. 1t is
pretty we'll understood that should Mr..
Holman succeed. the city attorneys of
fee would become the political center
of a seething Republican potpourri I'M
der the leadership of few young and
fresh politicians, some of whom are
comparative strangers and without ex-
perience, but who nevertheless desire
to run the machinery of this important
city; and the writer makes bold to say
that within six months after such a
consummation disaster would stare the
people in the face. TAXPAYER.
