block, bearing characters similar to
those on the tickets. These blocks are
mixed and are drawn out one by one un-
til twenty have been spread on table.
The men conducting the drawing then
punch out the characters on the ticket
represented by the twenty blocks and
the drawing is over. Copies of the
drawing are then sent to each of the
agencies, where the purchasers of tickets
may compare and if lucky draw his
prizes.
There are other ways of marking a
ticket that are quite common. A
ticket that counts three ways and costs
80 cents, and ticket that costs 60 cents
and counts six ways are the general
favorites. A purchaser may mark every
spot on the ticket and yet may not win
anything, for in such case the ticket
has to be divided by lines, so that no
more than five spots can be contained in
a division.
The study Of the Chinese lottery game
is very interesting, and unless more
active measures are taken to stop its
spread, it is liable to take more money
out of the city than the Chinese could
earn by working on public improve

THE WESTERN BOUNDARY.
Taxpayers Want to Know Where the
City Ends.

City Assessor Fischer has been some
what puzzled to know where the western
boundary line of the city runs. There
are three to five surveys along there,
zigzagging one through the other, so
that confusion is worse confounded. Mr..
Fischer asked for new survey, but that
motion was not thought good for the
reason that it was likely to make
one more element of confusion. Then
the Assessor went to the City Engineer,
and asked his advice as to what line to
follow, and was told, so it is understood,
that the line known as the Reynolds
line is the proper one. This diverges
widely at points from what is known as
the charter boundary, and hence prop
erty heretofore thought to be in the
country will be assessed for city prop
erty, while some heretofore considered
in the city will be left out in the cold.
The owners can well endure the
Assessors giving them the go-by, but
there are other things not so pleasant
about this outlook.

A Midnight Fire.

At 12: 80 O'Clock last night an alarm
was turned in from box 81 by Officer
Steele, for small blaze at the works of
the Los Angeles Electric Company, on
the corner of Alameda and Banning
streets, to which the department re-
sponded. The fire, which was confined d
to few rafters in the roof, was speedily
extinguished, and the damage sustained
was very slight. The blaze originated
from the proximity of the boiler to the
woodwork of the roofing, the heat from
the former having caused the ignition of
the rafters. This was the first alarm
that had been turned in for seventeen
consecutive days, and the fremen hailed
it with delight as reliefto the monotony
of their existence.

THE NIGHTINGALE'S CHILDREN.

Hark, voice that cries and calls,
AS the summer twilight falls;
Deep with longing, keen with pain,
Sobbing through the summer rain.
"Wake, wake, wake!
Ere my heavy heart doth breakr'
'Tis the bird of silver tongue
Singing summer leaves among,
Calling on her children dead
With the wet leaves overhead;
In the living, leafy wood,
Calling on her silent brood,
Ever still and lifeless born
To the nightingale forlorn.
"Wake, wake, Wakei
Waken ere my heart doth breakv'
Nightingale of golden throat,
Sobbing forth thy silver note;
Were it ours, thy charmed skill,
Might we raise our dead at will,
Is there aught we would not give?
Would we leave, so they might live,
Aught unventured, aught unsaid,
Could they wake, the dreams bocn dead?

Smelters Close Down.

CHICAGO, May A special to the
Times from Helena, Montana, says: The
Helena and Livingston Smelling Com
pany, located at East Helena, and the
Great Falls smelter have closed down.
The cause of the suspension is difficult
to get at, but from what can be learned,
the chief factor in closing down is the ex-
orbitant freight rates on ore to this
point, as compared with rates to Omaha
and other Eastern smelling points.

Sensational Safe Opening.

CHICAGO, Oct 16.-A safe opening
test, which, in sensational accompani.
ments,. double discounts the wonderful
feat of Paul Alexander Johnston, the
mind reader, took place in the Wayne
Hotel this morning. The operator was
Henry E. Adams, "a young man from
Minneapolis, who came to Chicago some
weeks ago and took rooms at the Wayne,
on Michigan Street. There he became.
acquainted with young man about his
own age, who was cousin to the hotel
proprietor This fact of the relationship
was not known by Adams. Within the
past few days Adams proposed to his new
found friend scheme to make money.
They would rob the safe in. the hotel.
The whole plan was deity arranged.
Adams was to get up at 4 o'clock and
open the safe. Meantime the hotel pro.
prietor had been told of the plot by his
cousin, who pretended to take the part Of
an accomplice in the robbery. 1t was q
little after midnight when the two able.
bodied detectives were led into the hotel
and secreted themselves behind the Office
counter. They waited patiently for 4
O'Clock to arrive. Just as the big clock
in the tower of the Northwestern depot
rang out the appointed hour, the safe
robber came tiptoe to ths hotel Office.
The detectives all but refused to
breathe for fear of disturbing him.
Without tools or explosives the wonder,
ing detectives watched young Adams
cody prepare to open the massive iron
receptacle, althoug ID it was clearly evil
dent be did not know the combination nor
was he mind reader. He had simply.
resorted to an ingenious plan and depend.
ed on nature for an open sesame. Adams
had pared the nail of bis index finger on
the right hand until the blood vessels
were exposed, then by placing the sensi.
tive wound on the knob of the combina-
tion lock, he could distinguish the
movement of the tumblers as they fell.
For an hour he worked, while the per-
spiration dropped in beads from his brow.
At last there was sharp click, and as
the frat break of dawn came.through the
windows Adams swung back the door.
With sigh of relief be reached into the
safe and laid his hand on a package of
bills. The detectives sprang forward and
the robber was under arrest Tonight
Adams was incarcerated in The strong
cell, closely guarded at headquarters.

Can Monkeys Talk.

Can monkeys talk? The question was
made few days ago, so Star reporter
learned, the subject of what was probably
the funniest scientific experiment ever
conducted by the Smithsonian Instilu-
ton. Professor Garner, one of the hon
orary curators, had charge of the test.
The conversational power of monkeys
has for years past been Especial hobby
Of Professor Gamers, and it occurred to
him that it would be a good idea to take
down some Of their remarks by means of
the graphophone. Accordingly, he pro-
cured portable instrument and secured
the cooperation of about dozen other
men of science attached to that learned
establishment in the carrying out of this
remarkable trial. 1t was great sight to
behold the group of eminent doctors and
professors gathered in front of the mon.
key cage at the Zoo in the.resr of the
Smithsonian building seriously awaiting
results, while Professor Garner. ground
away ut the hand graphophone With its
.craLk attachment, and the keeper of the
animals poked the monkeys up With a
stick to make chem talk.
One monkey was tame and the other
one wild. The wild one could not be
induced by the most vigorous poking to
make any remarks worth mentioning.
n occasional scream of rage was all that
could be elected from him. The tame
monkey did nothing but chatter and glib
Der most unintelligibly, as it seemed to
the audience, but Prof. Garner was in
clined to think that this was converse
tion worth taking down, and so he
ground away vigorously at his instru-
ment, using up g half dozen cylinders iu
obtaining the records he desired. A big
tin horn attached to the. graphaphone
was inserted through the door of the
monkey cage during the performance.
Prof. Garner was very far from imag-
lining that he would be able to under
stand this monkey talk when repeated to
him by the machine. But his notion
vas to record the remarks of one monkey
and grind them out through the horn for
the benefit of the other monkey, 80 as to
observe what sort of responses the second
one would make. By comparing the
original observations and the replies he
hoped to get some few clues that would
eventually enable him to translate the
monkey language.
Unfortunately the wild monkey would
only scream angrily. and thus the exper.
iment was in measure failure, though
The professor is convinced that he has
obtained on his cylinders some really
useful simian observations, if he could
only tell what they were about. This is,
in fact, the only difficulty remaining, and
he does not despair Washington Post.
