PROF. GARNER'S HOBBY.
He Goes to Africa to Interview the
Congo Apes.

Congo Apes.
New YORK, July 15.-Among the
outward bound passengers is Prof.
Robert L. Garner, who is going to
the French Congo district in Africa
to study monkeys. He thinks he
can evolve a language out of their
chattsring. He takes with him big
wire cage, in which he will sit and
talk with the ourang- outangs. Just
outside the cage he will place phono-
graphs, so that when the apes come
up their chatter may be caught.
81 intend" Professor Garner said,
'to get photographic record every
day for few weeks of the subjects
in order to ascertain the character of
the development of the vocal organs
and speech and to compare that of
the apes with the language of the
civilized races, to the if the powers
of apes are developed in the same
way as in human beings and if the
same consonant sounds appear.
"When l get to Cape Lopez [ shall
try to buy a gorilla and chimpanzee
to carry with me on my trip. These
will be my teachers, and L hope to
learn to talk with them"
There is an old sailors law that
the only reason that monkeys don't
talk is because if they did they would
be made to work. Professor earn
er's trip may end this scheme, and
there is farmer named Aaron How
elps, near Goshen, in this State, who
eiems disposed also to help along the
climax. He has number of cherry
trees, and a cousin of his, who is cap
tain of an East India trader, some
time ago brought him couple Of
Siamese apes trained to pick fruit IN
that far off land. According to the
Goshen farmer the ocean voyage did
not make them forget their cunning.
He says they climb better, pick more
and eats less than the boys. Each
monkey has a bag that contains
about five pounds of fruit slung
around hiswaist.
"They go up the tree like a rock
et," said Mr.. Howells, land, when
their bags are full, they come down
like the stick" A heap of empty
sacks on the grass is ready for them,
and they help themselves and return
to their work. Moreover, with their
toll, the farmer thinks, they have
broken their silence, and, though he
cannot yet understand what they say,
he is quite sure that they hold ami
mated conversations with each 9th
er. They certainly chatter away,
and that there is a spirit of rivalry
between them is evident.

SENATOR PALMER's SPEECH.
A Bill Will be Introduced to see That
Laborers Get Protection.

LabOrerS Get Protection.
WASHINGTON, July Ex-senator
Palmer's speech In the Senate the
other day, in which he took occasion
to express rather extreme views as
to the rights of the workingmen in
great establishments like Carnegie's,
has been much talked about here,
and while the Senator has gone far
Their in some of his declarations than
many people would care to follow
him, there are some public men in
Washington who believe the rela-
tions between employer and employ
ed in establishments fostered by the
protective tariff ought not to be ex-
actly the same as in unprotected in
dustries. It is pointed out that in
the protected industries the govern
ment by taxing the consumers for
the benefit of the manufacturer
ought to have some right or super
vision over the conduct of the work,
and as the avowed purpose of impos
ing the tariff IS to increase the earn
ings of labor there should be some
system devised by which, if the pro-
tective tariff is to be continued, the
general community, as represented
by the laboring man, can obtained
fair share of the capital invested
through the medium of the tariff
laws. It is understood bill based
on these ideas will be introduced in
Congress this week, providing for
the inspection of the accounts of
protected manufacturers, and feder-
- - l. L. III
ers get their full share of the benefits
secured by protection. 1t is not ex-
pected that such a bill will pass
Congress, but it Is believed it would
call attention in forcible way to
the true nature Of the Republican
protective tariff system.
