DETECTIVES AND DELEGATES.
Gang of Thieves Now Working the Re
 llEIous Congress.


 CHICAGO, Sept. 1a-Experienced detect ives in plain clothes mingle with the crowds that now seek admission to the parliament of religions in the Art insti- tute and closely scrutiniZe each face as its owner passes in through the doors of the auditorium and main assembly rooms. Their presence is due to the development during the first week of the parliament of the light fingered gentry, who played havoc with the personal possessions of many of the goodly folk in the various audiences.
 Fat pocketbooks had been abstracted from mysterious pockets while the heads of the owners, and possibly of the pilferers also, were bowed in prayer. Watches and chains disappeared from vests and dress pockets, and, incredible as it may seem, a pair of diamond earrings WAS actually eX tractcd from the ears of q fair wearer as she sat spellbound under the influence of the peroration of Buddhist priest
 Successful efforts to suppress publicity in regard to this condition of affairs were made during the greater part of the week, when a perfect colony of CruokS invaded the theosophical congress, and there was such an outcry concerning lost handker chiefs, pocket books and Satchcls that the proceedings had to be suspended while a note of warning was sounded from the plat form. The presence of the detectives from now on, however. is expected to serve as a warning to the deprrSlatorS to kcepat safe distance from the building and it's audi. PuCPS

Gnrner,a GorillAA

The first installment of R. L. Gamers adventures since he planted his wire cage down in the forests of mid-Africa and prepared to make a stay of it till he learned monkey and gorilla talk is en- tertaining enough. One always contends in his secret thought, though, that if Garner had really wanted to study mon keys he need not have gone so far from home to do it. The missing link Is more numerous than has been suspected, it really is.
 What MT. Garner has learned thus far is not hard to sum up. Wsmay hope he will find out much more before he comes back. In Fernan Vaz, on the limbo gombi, he has found that both the gorilla and the chimpanzee frequently utter just the same sound that the negro tribe thereabouts articulate when they say yes. He judges therefore that the monkey tribe and n man tribe have the same word for yes He finds also that the gorilla is like Artemus Wards hyena, that went off into the wilderness by hisself and laffed."
 lAS StA LAAet AS INI ANAih NA A big male usually has a harem, as is fitting oriental and African monarchs. At night he does not protect his wives and children, but lets them all find their own trees to sleep in. he taking the best one for himself. In the morning he makes them all get up on time, however, by series of ear splitting wells which do not stop until the wives and their progeny arc marshalcd for the days journey. The mothers carry the young ones upon their backs. So far as can be found, there Is no such thing as a home or fixed locality for the gorillas. They climb trees and sleep wherever darkness overtakcs them. This must be very nice indeed when it comes rent day. Mir. Garner does not think much of the gorilla intellectually, but the chim- panzee is really good deal of q fellow.
 The strangest thing of all and the hardest to believe. though Mir. Garner asserts it on the honor of d gentleman and scholar, is that the chimpanzec ' tribe make or find mysterious chunks of musical earth, which one of them beats upon, causing it to give forth rhythmic sounds like drumbcats. while all tho rest dance round like demons. When they have finished the hocdown, the dancers utter one long. unspeakable howl of sat isfaction and break up the meeting. If this weird tale be true, then it is not hard to account for tho origin of danc- ing.

IN MODERN EMPIRE STYLE,

tains, and the tassrls of lead covered and nettcd over with cord of color to harmonizc with the curtains Brass tas- sells are apt to break the glass by care less handling. These are tu hang straight up and down oE looped back.
 Lace curtains that are to hang under long curtains or lamhrcquinS should be arranged so they can b" easily removed without taking down the other work. The practice of attaching them to the same rings that support the other drap- cry when poles are used k q bad one, as it brings them all too close together to ;rlow either to drapc well. The best method is to turn hem at the top to re ceive rod which k supported by hooks or brackets on the easing. See that in hanging they do not show over the other work. The laceS will shirr nicely on the rod and always hang well. They can thus be quickly taken down. and there are no hooks or rings tn rip off when laundered. Use brass or hard wood rod. as iron will be apt to rust.
 Nestibule curtains are usually hung with rod top and bottom and allow dou- ble fullness if possible. Finish them about five inches longer than the glass
  seen on the outside. In hanging place the upper rod first, slip the lower rod through the hem and draw down tightly enough to cause the curtain to hang in we'll defined plaits. scrrwing on the brackets to hold. For a door with single large opening d pretty treatment is ts have the curtains ill pairs. fringed and weighted with shot. Shirr up the top, put on rings for the rod. A traverse cord and pulleyS, with dainty tasSels to match. are a nice addition, but as such curtains would be within easy reach one could dispense with the traverse.
 The window drapery illustrated k a design in the modern empire style. There is a graceful valance of soft material superimposed upon straight hanging cur tains. These light fabrics might be ill palc green with pink, which would har- monize we'll with the walls in dark chamois and silver. having sea green frieze, the woodwork of the apartment being in silver birch.

"Reminiscences orLincoIn.

In these days when every memory of Lincoln k fading out except that he was great statesman. q shrewd manager and relator of anecdotes. the little per sonal rccollcCtionS that still lie in tho minds of those who knew him ought to be carefully preserved to give his char actcr M it's completeness. It Is pleasant, therefore, tu find some fresh reminis- cencrs of him given to d correspondent of the Kansas City Times by Senator Voorhees,.
 The Indiana senator knew Lincoln when he himself was u young country lawyer just beginning practice. I.ir- coln waS very kind to him and won his heart in such way that even differ ercncrs in politics never alicnated it.. MT. Voorhees, emphasizes especially cer- tain traits of Lincoln not generally con sidcred. He says: He gave you an im- precision of greatness at every moment. He answered every requirement. of his great life and rose to meet every emer- gency with an ease which spoke of un- limited power in reserve" He had d great laugh--a high, musical tenor-and he used to make things ring with laugh ter" "LincolnS personal courage had no limit. He was afraid of nothing on earth" What We call big politicians are in general way d dwarted and mindless generation compared tu Abe Lincoln. " Finally Mir. Voorhees, says that even LinCOln'S fame as d story teller has not had half justice done to it.

HOW 10 MAKE HAIR CROW.
The Authority Is Good. but It Is Not Ae
 enmnnnirtI by an AmdaNit.


 There are many connections in use for making hair grOw on bald heads, most of which have attained little positive success But here is a simple prepara- tiOn which is nearly sOO years old Per haps it is just as well 10 cite a case which is taken from publication print ed in I75S entitled 'Ephemerides of the Curious" as this example will explain simply the manner of using 1t and also servo as a warning about applying it only to the parts upon whichit Is desired to grow hair:
 "A young woman of GrunherS, in lower SileSia, lost her hair through ill ness so that her scalp became as bare as the palm of inc hand. The physicians tried every known sIs'Citic, but could not induce a new growth. Finally, in despair, she was induced hy friend to use strong dCCoctiou of common box wool. Using no pr~'aution to Sccure her neck and face tas she did not believe in itN, she washed her scalp with it r several days. with the cffCct that upt only did hair grow upon her head. but also upon her whole ne,.k and face which 1t was found very difficult uf removal. This Is an unfailinS remedy fur taldncSs, as was aftcrw&ri proved III many parts of Silt>ia and elsewhere"

How to Hang and DraPe Long Curtains,
 Short Curtains and Y-stIbule Curtains.
 With a view to assisting tho fair lady of the house beautiful are here borrowed from The Decorator and Furnisher some of the prevailing styles in window dress ing. A tasteful way of hanging short curtains for chamber or cottage windows is to place the rod with the brackets on the inside member of easing, so the orna- mented ends will show on the face of casing. Shirr them at top and put the rings close together and have them to open and close with tho traverse cord and bulleys in the same manner as DOT tiereS.
