The middle cars are always the safest.
They do not receive a destructive blow
from either front or rear collision;
if the engine leaves the track they
usually remain in place, and they are
never snapped off, as the rear car
sometimes is. Almost the only case
in which the middle cars suffer IS
when they are thrown off track by
the breaking of coupling or Of some

DOWN ON THE BABooN.


The Ape Sadly DemOrAlixed with the Ad-
vance of Civilization.
The baboon, writes the GRAFT Reinet
Advertiser, South African paper,
seems to be changing its nature with
the changing climatic conditions In
former years he was vegetarian, his
worst offense being stealing mealies in
the gardens when he got the chance.
Now he has taken to other ways OF get
ting livelihood. Some say he has
Joined the carnivora. Any way, it is
certain that he makes 1t food bust
ness ness to get hold OF lambs, tear them
open and drink their mothers milk in
their stomachs. Said farmer the other
day to . brother farmer: "Have you
lots Of honey on your farm?" Answer:
mo, the balloons rob all the nests"
sHow do they do it9 the bees would
sting them to DEATH" The answer was
that probably the balloons did the work
in the night when the bees were drowsy,
sleepy and dull. Any way, he believed
the balloons got of with the swag of
honey wherever they could get at q
nest. - ~ rss<slehaALssszs4 svr' sGs-sa
Then Mr.. Peter Booysen, Of MORTON
tein, has his story to tell Of the new de-
velopment Of the baboon: Ii attacks
the wild aloe, pulls 1t down and tears
out the pith for food. Mr.. Booysen,
ST., does not object to this, as he would
be glad II all the wild aloes on his farm
were cleaned out by any means whatso-
ever. The special wish Of the father
and son is that balloons would take
some food-providing operations which
would get rid OF the prickly pear. But,
as the substance Of the leaf and Of the
trunk Of the prickly pear is nothing but
water, the wish is not likely to be graft
lied. Any way, the poisoning clubs have
classed the baboon with the wild carniy-
ora, and the rife and arsenic are now
busy destroying him. !. .s.s
Farmers give interesting instances Of
the difficulty Of poisoning the baboon,
the fellow being about as ''slim" as q
human being. One farmer believes the
fellow tastes the poison as prepared and
disguised for him, and, II he finds it is
not good thing for the stomach, splits
1t out. The farmer, however, has sue.
ceeded in giving the arsenic such pal
stsbie surroundings that the shrewdness
Of the baboon is not proof against the
palatable temptation, and he dies.

AN EXPENSIVE SHAVE.

What John Jacob Aston, Jr., Was Com
ES,.sxs PEELED to Pay His Barber.
Young John Jacob Astor, Jr., perhaps
the richest youth in the United States,
1t would seem, from an incident that oc-
Cured in barber-shop the other day,
lacks that closeness In money matters
that stood his grandfather in such good
stead when he began the fortune that
the boy Is now spending. The barber
that shaved Mr.. Astor is remarkable
in his weird appreciation OF ethics. He
would deal honestly with mon Of ordi
nary means, but he has an abnormal
socialistic idea that the millionaire is
Legitimate prey for him. Therefore he
resolved to get very large price for
shaving young Mr.. Astor If he could
manage 1t. After finishing his work he
brushed Mr.. Astor's coat for him with
great care and held out his hand for the
bill that the millionaire was extricat-
ing from fat roll. 1t is one of Mr..
Astor's habits to pay for small items
out Of one huge roll Of bills. The bar
Der passed across the room to his cash
drawer and then, returning, handed to
Mr.. AStor two pieces of silver. The rich
youth looked at the money and then at
the barber. 01nAHNa-- ~
"Wh-wh-wh-y, what's thisp" he said.
e"Change for the dollar you gave me,
SIR" responded the barber. -.
A"But, cawnfound 1t, 1 gave you
twenty-dollar bill. " As1h<Ap $685.
"Oh, no, sir" said the barber. .Only
a one. , Look at my drawer II you like,
and you'll see there is nothing larger
than one there. aupsa>-. ~
Several Of young Astor's friends were
with him and 80 he did not care to dis
cuss such vulgar question as money.
He made up his mind that it was dol
lar he had given up, and jammed his hat
down over his ears and went for q walk
on the avenue. The barber tells about
his getting $3.50 for shave. y
h"AndsTd take q hundred of that
young fellow II ! could" says he. Z
A strange case, surely, Of keen ton
serial artistry and ingenious criminal
ity, and this sort Of thing is not uncom-
mon in New York.-N. Y. Star.
