The Monkey Stole The Angels Wings.
lPhiLodeLphia Press.l

The first week of the circus closed last night
with an immense audience, whose liberal APP
plause stimulated the performers to surpass
tn eir usual excellence.
Yesterday the audience was treated to an
en- tirely new version of the Dawn Of Christian
ity.'' The brilliant finale of the Fall of Man
when Jocko, the dog-faced balloon, took an un-
expected part, Jocko enjoys considerable free
dom, and during the performance he slipped
nnnoticed from his perch in the dressing room
and emerged from a door in the heather tenn
pie into the glare of the lime lights while
Christianity was dawning.
Jocko recognized his dear friend Nine. Blu
mond posing as an angel with g%listning
wings, and in a mischievious spirit he snatched
the wings, then turned and fled %precipitously
down the Appian Way;
Nine. Bumond pursued her departing wings,
and the rest Of the angels, cOnvulsed with
laughter, fed into the interior city. Then the
spectators applauded the race between the
baboon and the wingless angel until they dis
appeared within the gates of Rome. Here
after Jocko will be obliged to contine his gen.
JUS to his W speciality, in which he is emf
nently successful.

A CRUWB OF COMFORT.

Occasionally there is a crumb of com fort for those who have invested in west ern farm loans and now afraid that they will be dishonestly treated by those who have borrowed and used their money. Judge Osborne of the twenty-third judi cial district of Kansas has rendered de- cision which will affect nearly every mort gage claim in western Kansas, and, if sustained by the Supreme court, will con tribute thousands of dollars to eastern investors. He has decided that mortgage given by settler on United States claim before filing final papers is valid. Here tofore it has been thought that such mort gages was not valid, and hence when set tiers mortgaged their claims to get money to pay out they could not be held for the mortgage so given. Judge Osborne decides that the mortgage is a lien on the place if given by one who is about to be. come and does become the unqualified owner Thousands of loans have been negotiated through the East on this basis and a great hue and cry was raised some months ago that no farmer need pay his mortgage thus given, and it was proposed to destroy over s2,OOO, 900 of indebtedness at stroke. This decision corrects this idea.
 Perhaps, and probably, other dishones ideas which seem to now prevail in part' of the mortgaged West may also be cor rected by the courts. Even if the Kansas legislature should pass all the laws whict the alliance wants it to the dishonesty which inspired some of them may not pre-

ters. Along the coast there is pretty good timber, and the interior abounds with fine fur animals, especially the silver fox, the skins of which are more valuable than seal. The country is we'll watered, and the gravel of the streams is filled with gold Of course all of this gravel does not pay to wash out, but there is plenty that does pay, and is easily gotten The great difficulty is that you have to go up into the country in canoes, and, the cur rent of the streams being very swift, prog ress is slow.
