CHIMPANzEEs WITH TORCHES.
Wonderful Story of Their Performances
Vouched for by Emin.

Wonderful Story of Their Performances
vouched for by Emin.
The Msongwa forest is infested by tribe
of chimpanzees of great stature, who make
almost nightly raids on the villages and
little plantations of the Mswa natives, carry
ing away the bananas and other fruits, says
Stanley in his book. There is nothing very
remarkable about this fact, since many
kinds of animals make pillaging forays
upon the habitations of men; but the sur
prising part of Emin's narrative is the
statement that, to these thieving raids, the
chimpanzees make useof lighted torches to
hunt out the fruit.
"If I had not myself been witness of
this spectacle" Mr.. Stanley reports Emin
as saying, 'nothing would ever have made
me believe that any race of monkeys pos
sessed the art of making fire."
On one occasion, Emin says, Chin
pauzee of this Intelligent tribe stole drum
from the huts of his Egyptian troops and
made off with it, beating it as he ran. The
monkey took the drum to the headquarters
of his own people" who were evidently
much charmed with it, for the Egyptian
soldiers often heard the monkeys beating
it vigorously, but irregularly. Sometimes
in the middle of the night some sleepless
chimpanzee would get up and go to beating
the drum,

1t Was Packed in a Box and Took Seven
teen-Day Voyage.
New York Tribune.l
Among the steerage passengers landed at
the Barge Office yesterday was Mrs. Fisher.
She was passenger on the Guion steamer
Nevada, from Liverpool, and came from
Birmingham. When she left home she
packed big box full Of her most valuable
possessions, and took it with her. Mrs.
Fisher had a cat, pet cat, to which she
was much attached, and the cat reciprocated
the affection. 1t was with tears that Mrs.
Fisher packed her box and thought that
she must leave pussy behind. That was II
days ago. and yesterday Mrs. Fisher and
her box were landed at the Barge Office.
When the customs officers opened the
box which Mrs. Fisher had packed with
tears, out popped pussy, looking exceedingly
hungry and emitting plaintive "mew."
The ielire Succi Immediately got good
meal, and Colonel Weber has decided that
he need not be returned as an assisted emf
grant.

THE scoTcHMAN's THISTLE.
An Old Story Explaining Why 1t is the
National Emblem.

An Old Story Explaining why It is the
National Emblem.
The story goes that many years ago an
army OF Danes landed on the Scottish
shores, and, finding that their approach had
been unheralded, determined to attack the
Scotch army by night. Approaching the
sleeping camp with the greatest caution,
success seemed almost certain, when sud-
denly there arose from one OF the Danes an
awful scream, which aroused the men they
were about to attack. The screaming in
vader couldn't be blamed when it was
known he was barefooted and had stepped
on a thistle; but the sturdy Scotchmen soon
armed themselves, fought we'll, and van
quished their enemies.
To show their gratitude for the plant that
had been their salvation, it was determined
that the thistle should be the emblem of
Scotland, and the motto. Memo me impune
lacessit" No man provokes me with i'm
punity), is one of the most applicable ex-
tant. However, the bride assumes it for
good luck, and not because she wishes to
be aggressive.

THE RULE OF THE ROAD.

An Old Piece of Poetry That Embodies
the Regulations of English Custom.
In the event of the adoption of the sug-
gestion that the rising generation should be
taught the rule of the road, correspondent
in the Newcastle, Eng, Chronicle, says the
lesson could not be more pleasantly con-
veyed than in the following old lines, the
second quatrain of which is not so generally
familiar as the first:
The rule of the road is paradox quite,
Both in riding and driving along;
If you go to the left you are sure to be right,
If you go to the right you are wrong.
But in walking the streets tits different case
/, To the right it is right you should bear;
TO the left should be left quite enough Of free
space
For the persons you chance to meet there.

MAUDE MAKES A CONFESSION.
By O'Clock it became evident that the

calm. We invaded the kitchen together
The turkey lay upon the table, and his di-

whom even the most indiscriminatlng and
nearsighted observer would recognize as a
model husband, that we resolved 10 ask Tom
REYNOLDS up to dinner. l will remark, In
parenthesis, that Tom, being discriminating
aud far-sighted, stayed away on this oeca-
sion, but we expected him, and made
preparations to fill him with turkey, pie, and
desire to forsake the lonely path ofeellbacy.
A VERY LIBERAL MAN.
The servant told me to order my turkey in
advance. and she suggested an eight-pounder;
but as ! walked TO the butchers shop, the
warm, expansive generosity OF my heart rose
mn and protested against such nlggardIlness.
An eicht-pound turkey might be the right
sort of a bird for bachelor to take home to
hIs lonely apartment, and cook over an
alcohol lamp. l could see, in fancy, some
poor solitary man gnawiug an elght-pound
turkey by the dying embers, wlth.only one
plate and one chair, and the spirit OF desc
lation for company. But ior married man
whose heart was on both sides of the table,
and his friend on one end of it, no lean and
seautv fowl would answer. l would not have
Tom to 60 away and say poor HowdY; now
that he is married, he has to economize, and
live on eicht-pound turkey"
"Give me a large one, fat, 1+pound
turkey" said I to the butcher, land don't
trv to palm off an inferior bird upon US, for
nv wife can tell his age without looking at
his teeth"
And the butcher cut piece of "sirloin"
steak off the under side of the round, and
swore that his word was as good as his
bond.
THE SERVANT DISAPPEARED.
On the evening before Thanksgiving our
servant went to call upon some friends, and
/ am sorry TO say that her absence was pro-
longed so days beyond her intention, BY
judicial interference. But the turkey ar
rived on time, and he was fine biped, as l
remarked to Maude, after receiving him
from the hands of the butchers boy. Maude
looked nervous and asked if l didn't think
Bridget would come back in time. l said
didn't. and then added that l was awfully
sorry my own little Maude would have the
trouble OF cooking the turkey, but that the
pleasure to be derived from eating turkey
which she had cooked would unfit man for
properly approaching the joys of paradise.
She turned her lace away, and had small,
couvulsive spasm, which 1 attributed to
graJI1ied vanity.
The minutes few by and Bridget did not
come. We had b=eakfasted on selections
from the cupboard, with coffee Of my own

WANTED TO KISS sUCCI.
A Female Whose Desire to Make Fool
of Herself Was Suppressed.

A Female Whose Desire to Make Fool
of Herself Was Suppressed.
New York Press.l
Last week Signor Succi, the faster, had
many lady visitors. One of them insisted
on kissing him. Succi was willing, but the
ever watchful reporters insisted on getting
close to the pair for fear the woman would
slip him some food during the process. This
so discouraged the lady that she gave up
the attempt, and the gallant signor was
forced to content himself with blowing her
q kiss.
Two or three gifts were received by Succi.
One was a small papier mache skeleton
labeled, 'Succi, forty-ffth day." This
seemed to please the signor greatly. Some
other idiot sent him lot of sandwiches and
fried oysters by messenger boy. As soon
as the box was opened the slgnor sprang
about four feet away, evidently being afraid
that he would be accused of breaking his
fast if he renamed near the seductive
bivalves and sandwiches.
