 The Frenchmen in Paris don't mean to starve if there is another siege. The French War department has taken steps toward the construction of an immense establishment in the city for the preserva- tion of meat by freezing. Similar estab- hshments on . smaller scale will be at tached to the forts encircling the capital. The cold air will be supplied to all from a central station operated according to anew compressed air system.
 Much interest is felt in the test of cellu- lose which is to be made at Norfork. This substance has been employed as a water excluding material for several years in foreign naviss, particularly ir the French, being packed in 6 coffer-dam at the water line, extending all around the ship. It is made of the fibre of the cocoanut ground into meal, with Q certain portion of the unground flores intermingled. and is usually in the form of rectangular blocks, perhaps cubic foot each in dimensions, and having the walls compressed, while the interior is filled with loose meal. The compression, besides putting the sub stance in convenient form for handling, guards against the danger of its being set on fire; while the extraction of the gluten diminishes the danger of its spelling and becoming unhealthy. The distinctive property of cellulose is that of swelling when wet, SO as to close up a hole made through it by projectils before much water enters

'Jocko" Is not only sort OF generic name
for all captive monkeys. but is also the Chris.
tian name. so to speak. Of the best natured
monkey in the Zoo at the Central Park Ar
senal. Jocko is no cynic for although he has
long been on terms of familiarity with his
human fellow mortals. he still has childish
faith in their good intentions. This faith re-
ceived a rude shock the other day. when
Jocko. as is his wont. was doing his best to
attract the friendly interest OF visitors. among
whom stood sallow. black bearded. foreign
looking little man. The stranger responded
to Jocko's advances. shook hands with him.
and amused himself with the little monkey for
several minutes. Then. without the slightest
provocation. watching his chance. he sent a
shower Of tobacco Juice into Jocko's face.
The monkey squirmed with pain and sur
prise. but vengeance was at hand. Scarcely
grin at his own bad Joke when the back OF his
grasp of Superintendent Smith OF the Zoo
who. suddenly inspired with ono Of those law
less but wholesome impulses that come to all
brave and lust men. shook the offending
stranger until his very bones trembled. and
drove him from the monkey house with strict
instructions never again to show MS sallow
face there upon pain Of instant arrest.
Asto Jocko. he refuses to become a cynic be-
cause of one treachcrous betrayal. and keeps
up his antics and Eambols with faith In hu-
man nature still mistaken.
