An Impromptu Tug of War.

Delata, Pa, Nov. IA novel tug OF
war occurred at the Hotel Auditorium
few nights ago. Constable Prymer
has for several years been looking for
a Mr.. Wilmer Bennington, but he has
never succeeded in getting him. Ben
nington was in the hotel on this night.
and the constable endeavored to arrest
him, but failed. He called men to his
assistance, some of whom helped, and
the others assisted Bennington. 1t
then became a question of who could
pull the hardest. The Bennington aids
tried to drag their man across the line
into Maryland, and the constable tried
to keep him on this side. The Audi
torium is situated on the margin of
Pennsylvania. Bennington was pulled
across the line, and, although some
what injured. made his escape into
Maryland.

which was like fifth hand, still
clasped firmly about her leg.
Upon leaving his house Mingo as
sumed n perfectly upright position,
holding one hand over his head, and,
then occasionally dropping to all four,
he crossed the little grass plot and
easily swung himself into tree
His long tail stretched out to its full
length, and by 1t he actually lifted the
kitten until, when four or more feet
from the ground she scrambled at the
limb and aided herself up.
Mingo finally settled himself on n
bough with the puppy, which he held
closely in his arms.
Mingo, the Spider monkey, belonged
to tribe known as Coaita, and came
from the valley of the Amazon.
Mingo's fifth hand or tail was SO dcft
and cunning in all its movements that
one wondered whether somewhere
there was not an eye or two concealed
in the coarse hairs to enable it to find
its way about.
When Mingo walked limb the fifth
hand was invariably caught On a
higher limb SO that, when he lost his
hold, as he sometimes did, with his
hands and feet, he swung in safety by
the tail.
The tail was frequently employed to
inspect crevices in it's owners house,
and 1t could pick up very small objects
with the greatest ease.
When approached, Mingo would
often extend his tail and grasp ones

English surgeon was called to an
urgent case" of this sort, and found
that the patient, who was man of
great wealth but small courage, had
received a very slight wound from a
fall. The surgeons face did not be-
tray his irritation, but he gave his
servant orders to go home with all pos
sible haste and return with certain
plaster. The patient, turning very
pale, said, anxiously:

MiNoo'S FIFTH HAND.
Tho Remarkable Things q Monkey Could
Do with His Tail.

was standing one day by the house
of large Newfoundland dog, whose
attention was evidently much taken up
by number of lusty puppies, writes
Charles Frederick Holder, when evil
dently l noticed a slendery snake-lilie
object gradually slip out of a neighbor-
iLg dog house, and insert its tip into
the door of the first dog house.
The shaggy mother within blinlsed
quite peacefully, and one of the pup
pies galloped toward the intruder.
Evidently this was what was wanted,
for Immediately the object coiled
around the leg of the puppy in a gentle,
friendly manner and began to pull him
toward the door.
The little dog protested after the
manner of his kind, but the visitor was
persistent, and slowly the puppy was
dragged out of his own house, across
the foot of space between, and after
some little scufiling disappeared into
the other house.
moment later along came O kitten,
and stopped before the doorway of the
second doghouse, and out came the
long, insinuating object again, and be-
fore the kitten could object, even had
she been so disposed, one Of her hind
legs was encircled, and she, like the
puppy, moved toward the doorway,
dragged along tail first.
She uttered a single plaintive meow,
which, understanding something of the
cat language, l considered more
sound of passive acquiescence than
anything else.
My eyes soon again rcverting to the
opening encountered a pair of great
brown ones, pathetic and mournful to
degree, peering from beneath gray eye
brows.
For moment the eyes looked at me,
then seeing that l was friendly, the
head to which they belonged came out,
and there rose before me the owner of
the mysterious serpentinc object-a
monster so tall and slender, so COM
pletely given over to arms and tail that
| could only compare it to gigantic
spider coming out of its den.
1t stood up, reaching one long, atten-
uated arm almost to my shoulder, and

Dilke on France and ENGLAND.

Paris, Nov. THE Matin publishes
an article by Sir Charles Dixie on the
relations between Great Britain and
France, in which the writer asserts
that the difficulty existing between the
two nations with regard to New
Foundland faces England rather
than France, but has not at present
reached an acute stage. Sir. Charles
expresses regret over the warlike at
titude assumed by the French govern
ment toward Madagascar, which
will work injury to the most valuable
experiment ever made in native gov
ernment by a Christian population un-
der the auspices of French, English
and American teachers.

Eight Eggs.

Allen G. Thurman, of illustruous
name and kinship, whose home is at
Leesburg, but who was for a consider
able time delivery driver for the Hills
boro Lumber and Coal Company, In
which capacity he bore an excellent
reputation, is in trouble. He is a fine
looking man and would not be picked
from a multitude as a thief. Yet he is
charged with stealing eight eggs, to the
value of eight cents from Leesburg
merchant. The story of the prosecution
is that he had long been suspected OF
petty thieving, and that on this occa
sion, he sat near the eggs in question,
pretending to read newspaper, but
really dropping his hand occasionally,
and closing it over an egg which was
duly conveyed to his capacious overcoat
pocket. They claim the eggs were

A Progressive Management.

There can be no doubt but that the
b. & o. s. W., as at present conducted,
is under one of the most progressive
managements in the history Of the road,
and one that grasps eagerly at new
ideas, and does not pause at any ex-
pense that is calculated to increase the
traffic of the road. This has become
particularly evident within the past few
days, as several steps have been taken
which prove that the officials of the
road have decided to leave nothing un-
done that will place the road on an
equality with any in the country.
They needed a new round house at
Cincinnati, and they filed up big hole
at the stock yards and built it. They
needed another engine on this division,
and they had one repaired expressly for
the work and brought it over here.
They needed side tracks at Brighton,
and two trains began yesterday to pre-
pare place for them. They found that
one of their crack trains was running
behind time, SO they took the express
cars off and ran them as Especial. They
found that some of their patrons were
suffering by having their freight stolen
from the cars, and they appointed pa.
troll to guard the trains.
These are but a few of the steps in ad
vance which have been made within
the past few days, but they are pretty
fair samples of what the officers of the
road are doing. These facts should be
the cause of earnest congratulation on
the part of all persons interested in the
welfare of the road, for they will help
to make it one of the most progressive
in the country. ChWicothe Leader.
