It is said that a public reader Of some
Hepute, making "a tour through the west,
happened { have an audience one night
IN q South Dakota town whose ''hus-
Ting spirit created a demand for any
thing from Sunday dog fights to lectures
on aesthetics. The house was packed.
and the readers efforts were followed
with marked attention. Several selec-
tons had been well received. when some
of the shorter poems of Arnold were IN
nounced.
Probably few of the auditors knew who
Matthew Arnold was or what to expect
from the next number on the programme.
but they had been hearing oIn good old
soul stirring verses, and interest WAS
keyed to a high pitch. 1t CHANGED that

oocoANuT TREES.
How the Natives Manage TO Climb
Them Like Monkeys.

How the Natives Manage TO Climb
Them Like Monkeys
Frank Leslie's Monthly.
The native proverb says: "a cocoa.
nut tree is BRIDES dowry," and
really the many uses to which the
palm and Its productions are put are
wonderful. They provide family
with food, shelter, fuel, house uten
sils, and, If need be, clothes. 1t takes
q long time for the cocoanut tree TO
attain Its full growth-seven years
but when this time has passed, 1t lie a
mine of wealth, and happy he who
can call a plantation OF q hundred
acres his own. The nuts, when ripe,
fall to the ground, and, when neces-
sary, are plucked by men who climb
up. 1t sometimes makes ones blood
run cold to see them run up the trees
like monkeys.
Two ways are practiced for mount
ing the trunk. In the case of q small
tree, or at an odd moment, the man
walks up the trunk, keeping his feet
Hat against 1t and throwing his
weight back from iJ as much as pos
sible, retaining his position at the
same time by the tension of his arms.
The other and safer plan is to pass a
loop of cord around the feet, which
are thus kept close together, aud
grasp the trunk of the tree, the arms
in the meantime assisting the elm Der,
who moves upward In q series OF
Jumps. .....
The busy season of q cocoanut plan.
tation is when the nuts ripen, which
they seem to do all at once, and every
hand Is engaged In gathering and
| and conveying them with carts to the
drying ground, which is always In
close proximity to the bungalow, &C
as TO be as much as possible under
the eye of the manager. Here
they are split in half, longitu-
dinally, with an AKA feat which IL
dexterOusly performed with one blow
by man appointed for that duty
and then spread out to dry. The in
tense heat of the sun rapidly shrivels
the kernel, which curls up into . bal
the size of your fist and detaches itsel
| from the shell.
This is now what Is called "copra,'
and is shipped to the nearest point O.
landing in sacks, where it is either
transported in bulk to Europe or NOR,
generally made into Oil, the refuse oil
cake or "poonak," being sold locally
for feed for cattle.

A scATHING VERDICT.

Portland, Or, Aug. 24-The coroner's
jury today completed the inquest over
the remains Of Lieutenant G. e. Mel
son. of the Oregon National Guard.
whose death resulted from a wound
received last Saturday in a sham bat
tie. The verdict is as follows:
1--WE find that the sham battle was
ordered by General H. B. Compson,
commander of the brigade, who issued
the order for the battle in the face of
protests made to him by most Of the
commissioned officers under his COM
mand, who believed ,and stated to
General Compson that it was, In their
opinion, unwise and dangerous to
hold it. We find that the wound was
the result Of criminal carelessness on
the part Of the man who fired the shot.
We have failed to establish the identity
of the man directly responsible for fir
ing the fatal shot"

Alliance Conservative estimates place
the attendance fer today at over SO,-
600, AMI this afternoon Mrs. AIll,
u. Lease Of Kansas. addressed an au-
dience of 10000. She said in part;
1.-THE people of Kansas should never
give up fighting for human rights and
human liberty until we have indeed
and in truth q government Of the peo-
pie for the people, and by the people.
When a few men in Boston can cause
a suspension of twenty-one banks in a
day; when United States senator can
press the button and raise the price of
oil ) per cent; when the Jews Of Ber-
lin and Lombard , .reet can control
the money of America, 1t is time to
call a halt all along The line. Such
crimes have brought about a revolu-
tlon as much religious as political, Min
listers OF the gospel should be interest
ed in this revolution for the cause Of
Jesus Christ and humanity. Ministers
who cannot discuss politics Of his par
ty in the pulpit had better put his dir
ty, filthy politics aside; they are not
fit for the religion Of Jesus Christ. The
time has come when politics must be
discussed from the pulpit. This Is no
longer the land of the free and the
home Of the brave, but the land Of the
rivh and the home Of the slave. and I
appeal to you to wake before the
chains of the money power are riveted
on your limbs. "
She then appealed to the people, to
wake up and drive the money changers
from our temple of American Liberty,
even as Christ did 1900 years ago.
