Curinsity Rewarded.

Some travellers were recently visit
ing in an elegant private garden at
Palermo. in Sicily. and among the lit
tie ornamental buildings they came to
one upon which was written, mon
asperite," that is, Don't open" This
prohibition only served to excite their
curiosity. and they very uncivilly pro-
ceeded to disobey the hospitable
owners injunction On opening the
door a strong jet of water was squirted
into their faces.

AN OLD. OLD COACH.
The Gorgeous Vehicle In Which the En-
peror Charles ". Rode.

The Gorgeous Vehicle i'm which the En-.
peror Charles Nv. Rode.
The carriage in which the recently
married crown princess OF Austria
made her entry into Vienna is mar
vel of the coach builders art.
The carriage was built in the year
100. at Madrid, for the Emperor
Charles w., in the rich barOque style
then in fashion. 1t is lined within
with cramoisy silk. and adorned with
gold f..inges-
The roof is also similarly lined, and
from its four corners hang tassels of
gold. Round the edge of the roof is
q great deal of elaborate bronze work,
at the four corners are punches of
golden flowers, and vine tendrils,
whilst over the center of the whole is
gilt crown adorned with precious
stones.
On all sides are windows filled with
venetian crystal glass; the pillars
which support the roof are adorned
with costly carved work, the panels
inside below the windows bear
painted representations of princely
virtues.
1t is usually supposed that these
paintings were the work Of Rubens;
such. however, is not the case; they
were made in 1868 by the Viennese
artist Wagenschon. The carriage
swings by four straps, which are
adorned with gold ornaments. Very
conspicuous are the double imperial
eagle, sword, sceptre and crown.
What little wood work there is is
covered with red lacquer; all the iron
work is gilded. The form of the
spokes Of the wheels is also note
worthy. they appear to be plated
together. and were the work Of a
sculptor The whole of the wheels
and the axles are brilliantly lac
quered.
The harness of the six horses was
of the same style as the carriage.
adorned with silk and gold. The only
other carriages of this kind any
where in existence are one at Madrid
and one in the Trinanon coach house
at Versailles.

Hard to Catch, and Big Ones Are Likely

The relations of the late Mr.. Crow

A good many chimpanzees live in
the forests along the Upper Welie-
Eakua, where DR.. Junker spent a
number of years. They dislike the
proximity of human beings. and
hide themselves among the thick foil
age of giant trees along the banks
and water-courses. There may be
hundreds of them in the forests.
though for months the natives may
never see one of the animals.
One day the natives told DIR. Junker
they had found some chimpanzees in
the neighborhood. The explorer and
his native friends accordingly went
on hunt. In the thick crown of a
lofty tree they saw one OF the animals.
DR.. Junker fired several shots at it.
and at last it fell to the ground, where
the doctor was compelled to put an
other bullet into its head before he
killed it. He desired the skin to add
ito his large geological collection.
On this same occasion DIR. Junker
secured baby chimpanzee alive after
killing its mother. When the mother
fell from the crotch of a tree in which
she had been sitting she left her in
FAINT there. and q native assembled and
secured the little animal, which cried
piteously. though it was too young to
offer any resistance.
DIR. Junker studied these interest
ing animals with great interest. and
was very much impressed with their
enormous physical development. says
the New York Sun.
One female that he killed was, he
said, scarcely four and a half feet
high, but the muscles of her arms
and legs were SO large that they gave
Der a misshspen appearance. The
muscular force of the chimpanzee.
even the young ones not over year
or two old, is really astonishing Dr..
Junker said that il was only by the ut
most efforts one day that he was able
to wrest from the hands OF a tame
chimpanzee stick which it was hold
ing. Even q sucking infant would
clasp his finger with SO tight u grasp
that he found it difficult to release
its hold.

The late DIR. Bethune, of Brooklyn,

says their indignation was great and
righteous when they learned that the
doctor had been offered . much lar

I'm New York. The people in Brook
Ign were greatly excited while the

when they learned that he had re-

was unbounded. Immediately after

THE NoRTHERN PAClFIC.

The placing of the Northern Pacific
railroad in the hands of receivers yes
terday comes neither as a shock nor a
surprise to the business community.
AT intervals for several weeks Wall
street has been RECALLED with reports
that such an event was about to hap
pen, and, while no one outside of the
officials could say that this would be the
result, the feeling of its possibility, or
even its probability, has caused any de-
pressing effect OF the announcement
to be discounted.
The stock is not scattered among the
people throughout the country, as was
the case at the time OF the JAY COOKE
failure At that time it was almost a
peoples affair. Now the stock and
bonds are chiefly held by parties who
deal in such securities and expect them
to have their fluctuations.
So far as the general public along the
line trayersed by the road is concerned,
if it makes ripple, it will be in an ad
vantageOns direction. There will not,
for the present at least, be any occasion
to set aside earnings to pay interest on
bonds. The earnings will now be used
entirely for the prompt payment OF en-
pioyes, the purchase of supplies and
general operating expenses. The nam
ing of Mr.. OAKEs as one of and the
leading receiver shows that there will
be no change of policy i'll the operation
of the line.
The statement of Vice aPresident
WILLIAMS gives the reasons for the
step~very clearly. In view of the pres
ent business situation it was the only
way the whole system could be
kept together. Branches and leased
lines were liable to be cut off from the
main trunk, but by the receivership all
is preserved intact. and the business of
the road will proceed with more smooth
ness than before.
While such aneyent is to be regretted,
as are all business reverSes, it is not be
cause of its material effect upon the
Northwest or the country at large. The
very magnitude of the enterprise ren-
ders it certain to be carried by its own

A GREAT SCHEME.
Proposition for Uncle Sam to Buy
British Columbia With Silver.


SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 15.-The Call
will publish an article tomorrow to the
effect that Horace F. Gutter, political
economist, has prepared a bill to meet
the present monetary emergency. He
has had the matter under consideration
for three years, and his present
action is the result of encourage
ment received from both the members
of congress and the business men OF the
coast. Sponsors stand ready at Wash
ingtOn to Introduce the measure, but
Mr.. Cutter is so confident of having
solved the problem that he prefers to
lay it before the public first. IL reads as
follows:
Whereas, That portion Of the coast
of North America bordering on the Pa
citic ocean and extending from latitude
40 degrees to 81 degrees 30 minutes
north, now called British Columbia,
should, by its geographical position,
naturally belong to the United States;
therefore, be it enacted, etc, that the
president of the United States be and
hereby is authorized and empowered to
enter into negotiations with the
British government for the purpose of
acquiring by purchase for the United
CloLCO III CuliICLy vi Sdlu
country now called British Columbia;
and that the sum of 500, 900, 900, or so
much thereof as may be necessary, be
placed at his disposal TO effect said pur-
pose. The sum agreed upon to be paid
either in gold, in ten equal annual pay
ments without interest. or at once in
silver bars at actual average cost of
same as purchased by the United States
government. India is agitatiug the
whole civilized world. One hundred
millions of dollars, payable in silver
bars at say an average of 80 pence per
ounce, would give England an oppor-
tunity of converting the same iuto
coin which might be made so
as to correspond precisely in
value to our own dollar. This
silver parity with gold is now rcckoned
at 1927 per ounce, which would give
the British government an additional
sum of some forty millions for seignior-
age. By international agreement
similar amount OF $4,000. 900 could be
coined by the United States, both Civ
ing S240, 100000 of silver coins to be in
terchangeable between the people of
both countries, thus taking an immense
step in the direction of the coin
union.'"
