A Captive Gorilla in a Rage.

Chiko, the gorilla, was placed in his
winter quarters in the arsenal at Cen
trail Park yesterday afternoon The
gorilla was in such an ungovernable
rage that it was determined to send for
Alice, one of the elephants in the men
agerie, and her presence had a quiet
ing effect on the big simian. One of
the men, Felix Mcdonald. who was
helping in the transfer, came within
arms length of Chiko and was squeez-
ed tightly against the bars. while the
animal did his utmost to drag in an
arm, and was biting savagely but
vainly at Mcdonald, who was rescued
by the men cutting away the left side
of his coat. By o'clock the monkey
was in the room formerly occupied by
Crowley. The cage, however, was not
quite ready, for men were mailing
down a carpet, and then the rest of
the furniture, consisting of a mattress
with blankets, a. chair and a small Ia
BILE, was put in. Then his cage was
placed alongside his new home and the
rear sides of both raised. AS soon as
he was in his new abode the gate was
at once lowered, and the monkey was
mad with rage again. With yells and
screams it tore at the bars, pounded

father had never heard of Jim Dunn,
the boy oyster king of Good Ground, .
but he was rejoiced nevertheless when
he learned Jerry had became a mem
Der of royalty. The papers told a week
ago today of how jeremiah Murphy,
the father, walked 200 miles in search
of Jerry" the son. The lad, who is
now fourteen years old, had been
placed in st. Johns Home, Brooklyn;
his mother and brother had died, and
Jeremiah Murphy, who lives at SO

farmer, in March, 1892, but ran away
from the farm shortly after. Murphy
then correspondent with postmasters
and constableS of Long Island villages,
but received no tidings of the boy,
and resolved to take up the search
himself. He was so upset because of
the death of his wife and younger son
and the disappearance of Jerry that
he gave up his position as black
smith and took to drink. He had no
money for railroad fare, so he walked
He saw farmer Fahey and learned
that Jerry had left Bridgehampton
with a woman tramp. Murphys heard
of a woman and boy travelling together
at different villages, but never caught
up with them
He started on his second tramp three
weeks ago and walked as far as Sag
Harbor when he heard of a boy,

YIctnria,s Relirinn.

That mental effort that enables one
of a geographical line and the confess
sion of faith north of the line, to be
an Episcopalian in the lowIands and
a Presbyterian in the highlands, is one
of the anomalies of a monarchy.
Queen Victoria is strictly Anglican in
England and exclusively Presbyterian
in Scotland. The Presbyterian is the
established church of Scotland, just
as the Episcopal is the established
church in England. But this is not
held to account for the queens per-
tinacious preference for the Scotch
church. AS the coronation service in
cludes the English ritual, the queens
various archbishops have successfully
protested against her taking commun-
ion in the Scotch church. and, accord
ing to Mr.. Labouchere, have been sue
cessively snubbed for their pains. For
the communion service in the Presby-
terrain church the queen has taken
special pains to show her fondness.
In the Leaves From My Dairy she
writes of communion Sunday in old
Crathie church, 1871: "At the end of
the sermon began the service of the
communion which is most touching
and beautiful, and impressed me more
than I can express. l can never for
get it, The queen has just laid the
corner stone to the new Craithie church
to which she has been large contrib
utor. In DISTINCTION to her frequently
expressed feeling and partiality for
the Scotch church, the queen has
shown a marked disregard for GER
tain customs of the English church
For example, several of the royal mar
riages have been celebrated in Lent.
The marriage of the Princess Louise,
on March 10, 1871, and the marriage of
the Duke of Connaught, on March Is,
1879. were two of these royal Lenten
celebrations-New York Sun

ILLICIT CIGARETTES.
Chinese Manufacturers Caught and at
Once Arrested in San Francisco.

Internal Revenue officers Thomas,
Gilchrist and Jones raided a Chinese
illicit cigarette factory at sos Jackson
street yesterday and arrested two OBJ
orators, Kun Sing and Lee Hong, who
were caught at work.
The cigarettes manufactured were of
the abominable regular Chinese yari-
ETY., twenty in pack. There was also
large quantity of unstamped tobacco,
The proprietor of the factory is Son
10y, an old offender, who has store
at S07 Jackson street. A warrant was
procured for his arrest, and Kun Sing
and Lee Hoy were locked up. Over a
year ago Son. 10y was caught violating
the laws and all his property was
seized.
At this time 1000 cigarettes were
found in Son Logs factory, the charge
on which the warrant was issued
against him was under section 1887, to-
wit: Having in his possession, which
is made a felony. and for which the
penalties are a fine of from 500 to
$1,000 and imprisonment of from six
months to three years. If convicted
ported.
T The charge against Kin Sing and
Lee Hong is that of manufacturing,
which by the statute is simply a mis-
demeanor, the minimum penalties be-
ing less and the maximum ones great
err, viz: A fine of from ST. to S., 900
and imprisonment for from three
months to five years.

Announcement to the musical Pubic.

The experience of the Choral society
last year in its efforts to present com
plete oratorios was so satisfactory in
every way, except in the matter of
finances, that it has already another
oratorio under rehearsal. Rossini's
Moses in Egypt" The chorus work
is not nearly so heavy as that in The
Creation" the burden of the work
coming upon the solists.
Much as our people love music they
have hardly appreciated the beauties
of oratorio. 1t should be encoura ged
for it not only gives character to a
city in the matter Of eleyating its musi-
cal societies. but it fosters orchestral
culture, and affords observation-disclosures
as well as vocalists an opportunity to
study the most sublime musical COM
positions.
As an aid to the study of such
works a series of concerts has been
mapped out by the management of
the Choral society to be given in the
First Congregational church at popular
prices.
The programmes will consist of num-
bers for the chorus, the organ and vo-
cal soloists, all under the direction of
Professor Stephens. One night will be
devoted to the Italian masters. another
TO the German and the American. etc.

phonious title of Evenings with the
