Monkeys and Their Sick.

Monkeys, with some notable excep-
tons, are some degrees worse than saw
age men i'll their treatment of the sick.
On the new Jumna canal at Delhi
monkeys swarm i'll trees upon the banks
and treat their sick comrades in true
monkey fashion.
The colony by the canal being over
crowded. and as a consequence I'M
healthy, did and probably does still suf-
fer from various unpleasant diseases.
When one monkey is SO obviously un-
we'll as to offend the feelings of the
others, a few af the larger monkeys watch
it, and taking u favorable opportunity
knock it into the canal. If it is not
drowned at once, tho sick monkey is
pitched i'll again after it regains the trees
and either drowned OF forced to keen
aloof from the flock
At the London Geological garden the
monkeys torment sick one without

pinch it. The larger ones swing il;
around by the tail. When it dies, as

ton lady who keeps an expensive board
ing house ION the hill" The manners
Of George, who was bred in the south,
are perfect-at once self respectful, easy
and dattering to each boarders feeling
of personal consequence.
He is one of the rare men who are al
ways deferential and never servile.
Though but head waiter, lie might
well be called q gentleman. That he has
e. very nice discrimination in language
this true anecdote will show:
The point on which George is touchy
is the reputation of the boarding house
i'll which he is so trusted, so liked and so
much the managing man. He is assidu-
Gus in maintaining the table on a liberal
scale and seeing that no boarder lacks
anything or waits unduly for any atten-
ton by reason of the neglect of the minor
servants, who are all women
If they are all busy, George fills the
gaps" Thus it CHANGED one day not
long ago that he leaned deferentiall;7

The new boarder is somewhat deaf
and long accustomed to less liberal
boarding houses. Not sure that he had
heard George Alright, he looked around
and said:
What? Apple pie or ice cream?"
mo, sab, not here, sab! Apple pie

admirable suavity and perfect vindica-
ton of his boarding house from possible
suspicion of being one of those places
where they offer the guests nothing moro
than n choice between dishes of dessert.

Curiosities ofWor,ls.

There are two words in the whole
range of the English language contain
ing all the novels i'll their regular order
They are abstemious and facetious. The
following words each have them in ir-
regular order: Authoritative, disadyan-
tageous, encouraging, eficacious, instan-
taneous, importunate, mendacious, ne
farious, precarious, pertinacious, sacri-
legious, sim .ltaneous, tenacious, unin-
territorial, unobjectionable, unequivocal,
undiscoverable and vexatious. "A search
through the dictionary might bring sew
eral others to light. It is usually said
that there are but seven nine lettered
monosyllabic words in the English Ian
guage: Scratched, stretched, scrunche
scranched, screeched. squelched and
staunched.
Here are some of the shortest sentences
into which the alphabet can be compress
ed: 81. Gray, pack with my box five
dozen quilts" 33 letters. "Quack, glad
zephyr. watt my javelin box" 81 letters.
"Phiz, styx. wrong, buck flame, quib,"
26 letters. II, quartz pyz, who fling
muck beds" 26 letters. Fritz. quici.!
land! hew gypsum box" &c letters.
"Dumpty quiz! whirl back fogs next"
81 letters. Export my fund. Quiz black
wings, 26letters. "Getnymph, quiz and
brow, fix luck" &c letters. In more sober
English, the last one would be, Marry,
be cheerful, watch your business"
These sentences would make excellent
writing copies, for they secure attention
to every letter and profitable exercises
for learners of the typewriter, as they-
take in all the keys, and thus familiarize
one readily with all possible combina-
tons. BY changing from capitals to
lower case the value of the exercises is
greatly increased.-London Tit-Bits.

ORANGES IN GALORE.
Predatory Kids Rob Chinese Buyers
of the Fruit.

The steamer w. G. Hall which
arrived yesterday afternoon from
Hawaii and Maui, brought down
thousands of oranges from kona.
This morning, at the |. |. S. n. Co.'S
wharf, these oranges were landed
from the steamer, and consequently
a large crowd of people was present
to sample the luscious-looking fruit.
Chinese fruit dealers turned out to
buy them by the wholesale and no
sooner had box been purchased by
a Chinaman and opened than dozen
hands would fly simultaneously into
the box and snatch the fruit away,
and before John could check the
grabbers, some dozen of oranges had
gone out of his keeping and were
being munched by the crowd before
his very face. or course when John
made verbal protest he was laugh
ed at, and seemed only to bring
about an increased appetite for
oranges on the part of the grabbers.
One native boy who was successful
previously in stealing oranges and
always managed to get out of Johns
way, was struck on the back by a
Chinaman with stick mot veryhard,
! but just hard enough to make him
less lively in grabbing-which gave
such wholesome example to the
rest of the ''kids" that John's pro-
perty enjoyed immunity from further
molestation. The fruit sold this
morning at "a dollar hundred.

EDITOR BULETfN.--
In your paper of the 9th inst. you
report that at the meeting held at
the noretania Street Armory on the
Bird III St, one of the speakers urged
the audience to sign a petition to
their government asking that two
japanese man-of-war should be sta
toned here permanently for the pur-
pose OF protecting Japanese inter
ests.'
regret that this should have been
added to the already numerous at
tempts that have been made to draw
the Japanese here into the Hawaiian
political trouble. The meeting was
held on the japanese Emperor's
birthday, and solely in honor of that
occasion; and into no part of it did
there creep any mention of, or refer
ence to, Hawaiian pol tics; nor was
the remark you reported even hint
ed at by any of the speakers.

of the citations made is simply to
show that if the question of the
policy of the United States toward
Hawaii depends upon the constru-

then the opponents OF the Provi-

the supporters of the present rule

she fell down in the middle of the

and go on the sidewalk. She NUT

tongue, unintelligible to the native
officer. Noting that persuasion was

bed the woman around the waist,
and lifted her off the ground As
the officer stood the woman on her
feet, she put her hand in her pocket
and drew out bag of money, which
she threw from her. The bag burst
ing coins were scattered in all direc-
tions. With the assistance of sew
eral Cinnamon who had been attract
ed by the strange sight, the money
was gathered together, and on be-
ing counted was found to amount to
500, all in silver. The woman and
money we're taken to the Police
Station, and charge of drunken
ness was recorded against her She
had not been there ten minutes
when two male Japs called and ask

in her possession. When told, one
OF the men, presumably her hus-
band, said that she left the house
with $3.50, of which 500 was in sill
yer and the rest in gold. The woman
had not yet been searched, and when
she was submitted to that perform
ance $50 in gold was found in her
dress pocket. Only 81 out of the
total amount was unaccounted for,
excepting by the condition she was
in. 1t was lucky thing that she
had been seen in time by the officer,
as otherwise the whole pile might
soon have been sought in vain.
