He Talks to the A1onReys.

One of the keepers in the monkey
house in the park has been very much
attracted of late by the regular appear
ance of little, short, thick set man,
with iron-gray hair and long shiskers,
who makes daily visits to tie monkey
house and stands for hours chatter
ing to the bes" s, and he b come to
the conclusion : at the man is q Oar
winian, a phi sophie linguist. who has
discovered the monkey language and
who is making himself fluent in it by
conversing with them.
Zone thing is certain" said the
keeper, "the monkeys know him, for
cage when he appears and chirp and
chatter and smile as if he were telling
them funny stories. It seems ridicu-
lous, don't it? But he is the only visitor
who can get their attention. Maybe he
hypnotises them.
The noises he makes are exactly like
their chattering and seem to be done
with the lips closed and teeth tightly
shut, and his eyes seem to sparkle as
the monkeys chatter back. Sometimes
when they answer him he almost bursts
with laughter aud when he leaves the
railing they all bid him goodbye with
much feeling.-Ne,o YORK; Recorder.

A Filthy Bab,t.

One Of the vilest habits tolerated in
the United States publicly and pri-
vately is wholly unknownin other coun-
tries. It is obtrusive eypectoration.
The disgusting vice is on the decline in
large cities, but it is still too prevalent;
and persons in authority ought to insist
upon its repression. Smokers who can
not smoke without making themselves
offensive ought always to smoke in
strict seclusion. Men riding in public
vehicles pay for transportation, but it
does not include the right to defile
floors, soil the garments of other persons
in the vehicle and sicken the stomachs
Of the sensitive. The bespattering of
sidewalks, railway stations. foyers and
other places, with salivary discharge is
as foulsas tits unnecessary. Conductors,
janitors and porters ought discreetly to
remind men guilty of this barbartity that
it must be stopped. If a quiet protest
will not be needed let the policeman be
called.
Secretions of the respiratory, salivary
or digestive organs are properly depos-
tied in pocket handkerchiefs ii they
cannot be more, properly disposed of.
Men VINO cannot afford pocket handker-
chiefs should receive gifts Of them from
their friends. A persistent and vigor-
Gus effort to stop this filthy practice il
public at least, should be r de and

Alta we,l,I,ro-

The wedding in question was. in MANY
ways, the most brilliant event of the
season. Nothing which could serve tc
nelghten the grace and Significance OF
the affair had been spared. The church,
f1ttlngly decorated by Boston artist,
was filled with interested guests. The
faint strains of Mendelssohn fioated
through the still air, aud the beautiful
bride stood before the altar with her
chosen one.
The pastor of the church, ritual in
hand, read the solemn service until he
came to the critical moment, when he
said:
Repeat after me, 4, William, take
thee, Frances
He did not proceed at once, for to
every ones astonishment, before the
bridegroom could find his voice, the
bride. in clear. firm tones, repeated:
4, William, take thee, France ."
There was a dead silence, till the
second officiating clergyman, unable
longer to control himself, laughed out
right. This was the signal for u con-
tagious wave of merriment.
As soon as the pastor could compose
his features and resume his dignitied
voice, he said:
Repeat after me, 4, William, take
thee. Frances"
This time the bridegroom spoke up
bravely, and there was no more blum.

sought in marriage a Providence girl

GLORIOUS OLD YALE.
The Meeting of the Alumni Proves
Highly Interesting.

NEW HAVEN, Conn.,, June 23.-
Friends of the graduating classes at
Yale and many alumni continue to flock
began with the meeting of the alumni
in Alumni hall. About 300 were pres
ent. Justice Brown, of the United
States supreme court, presided. On
the platform sat a score of graduates
Of fifty years and more ago. Speeches
were made by representatives of the va
riouS classes which are holding reun-
ions. Justice Brown spoke for what he
called the famous class of so (hiS OWN,
and commented on the fact that two
members of it were judges of the United
states supreme court. Seated on the
platform was the other member, Judge
David j. Brewer. EX-President Porter
sat near the platform, and touching
tribute paid to him by Justice Brewer
brought tears to the eyes of the prede-
cessor of President Dwight and to many
others present.
Hon. E. Ii. Nichols, who responded
on behalf of the class of al, caused a
sensation among the younger alumni by
calling on President Dwight to find a
better substitute for some of the honor
and glory of the university than ath-
letics. Justice Brown and Sherman
Evarts gloried in the fact that
the university maintained many of
its old customs and was not led
on to a false step by the liberal
curriculcum of the other universities.
The degree of the b. a., they said, rep
resented, when conferred by Yale, a
broad. liberal education, we'll rounded

ed in the vote for the members of the
Yale corporation, and those who have
not yet voted are being importuned by
the friends of the different candidates.
A heavy vote is being polled.

HELENA, Mont, June 23.-Some yery
interesting reading is contained in the
counter affidavit of Mrs. Z. ID. Edger-
ton 10 that of her husband. 1t was
flled in the district court today in her
suit for separate maintenance against
4. ID. Edgerton. president of the Second
national bank. Edgerton's affidavit
charged her with infdelty. This she
denies. She also denies that she wrote
any snch confession as her husband
claimed, admitting infdelity with a
physician of Helena. Referring to
the divorce which Edgerton got
at Billings. she says he met
her in New York and told
her he had it. She did not believe him.
and would not till she saw the decree.
She claims Edgerton called on her after
the divorce and lived with her as her
husband. Some time in 1856, she claims,
her husband compelled her to submit to
a painful operation under threats.
When the operation was about to be
performed she charges that the physi-
clan assaulted her. When she recov-
cred she told Edgerton, who paid no at
tention to it, but continued to receive
the physician at his house. The case
now before the court is for alimony
pending Mrs. Edgerton's suit to set
aside the fraudulent divorce and grant
