Monkeys that Smoke Cigarettes

PARIS, Aug. 28.-Can monkeys
smoke? is a question which may
now be answered in the affirmative.
The discovery was made at the
Jardin des Plants in Paris by a
band of mischievous urchins, who
freely distributed to the occupants
of the monkey house lighted cigar
cites. They took to the weed very
kindly, and puffed away, to the
great delight of the boys, until the
advent of the dismayed keepers,
and the subsequent appearance of
the lads at the police station proved
to them that mankind still means
to maintain monopoly as regards
the consumption of tobacco. In
the meantime the monkeys, de-
prived of new pleasure, are in
consolable. Chicago Daily Tri-

AMERICANS IN ASIA.
HOW GENERAL GENDRE DIPLOMAT
lcALLY UTILIZED HIS GLASS EYE.

When He Took 1t Out and Replaced 1t,
Chinese Offcials Gave Him What He
wanted-The Great Work OF United
States Minister Anson Burlingame.
Americans have played a very con-
spicuous part in breaking down the
prejudice that for centuries existed
against foreigners in Korea, Japan and
China and in opening the ports of these
suspicious and exclusive races 10 trade
and intercourse with the more progress
i've and civilized nations of the world.
At the present troublous time the most
important offices in Korea are held by
Americans, for the king of the Hermit
Nation loves America because he knows
the Yankee has no designs upon his ter
ritory.
One of the most prominent Avericans
now in Korea is General Charles W. LIE
Gendre, who has been vice minister of
home affairs for several years. General
LIE Gendre commanded a New York
regiment during the civil war, and aft
or the great struggle ended he was sent
as consul general to Annoy, China. II
1857 he went to Japan and took the side
of the young mikado, who was battling
with the shogun, powerful Japanese
who had usurped the mikado's power.
The mikado won the fight, and owing
to the advice of General LIE Gendre
adopted more friendly policy toward

DENVER, Sept. 19.-All records were
broken yesterday for long distance
heliograph signaling by the United
States Army Signal Corps, a message
being sent by sun flashes from Mount
UncOmpaghre, Colo, to Mount Ellen,
Utah, a distance of 1S3 miles. The
best former record was los miles, and
yesterdays record will probably stand
for years to come. Captain Glassford,
Chief Signal Officer, L. S. A, Depart
ment of Colorado, and his corps of
assistants, have been on Mount I'm
compaghre since September 10th.
They made au attempt on September
l1th, but snowstorm, which has con
tinued for six days, interrupted them
in the middle of the message. Yes
terday's feat, however, was accom-
plished without any difficulty. Mir
rOrs eight inches square were used in
transmitting the message, which was
read by the signal corps on Mount
Ellen, in Utah, then flashed by hello
graph ninety miles to Thompson's,
Utah, and from there sent by tele-
graph to Washington. The following
is the message:
"Mount Uncompaghre, Colo, via
Mount Ellen, Utah, via Thompson's,
Utah, via Denver, Colo, September
IS, 1894. To Chief Signal Officer,
Washington, d. c., through Com
manding-General, Denver: By sun
beam flash signal reflected this hello
gram has been sent direct 1S3 miles
over the sunset slopes of Colorado and
Utah, thus distancing the highest
record ever made in military signal
ing.

Explorers in III Luck.
LONDON, Sept. 16.-Mr. Wellman,
the leader of the American Arctic
expedition whose plans to explore the
far North were frustrated by the sink
ing of his vessel, the Raguwald- Jarl,
which was crushed by the ice, will
sail from Southampton for New York
on Wednesday next by the steamer
Spree. He will be accompanied by
the American members of his party.
In the course of an interview today
Mr.. Wellman said the failure OF
Lieutenant Peary TO reach North
Greenland shows that, like the Well
man expedition, he met unusual diff
culties arising, from the extremely
unfavorable season He warmly de-
Tended his expedition against the
charges made of inexperience and
bad outfit. We especially protested
that he had not abandoned Professor
Oyer on Danes Island. The professor,
he added, had 1900 pounds of pro-
visions on the island and was there
fore in no danger from suffering from
lack OF food. Professor Oyer had him
self perfectly absolved him from the
charge of abandonment.
In conclusion, Mr. Wellman stated
all the Norwegian members of the ex-
pedition had promised to accompany
the next expedition. AS to Messrs.
French, Mohun and Dodge, truer,
braver or better men cannot be found.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 19.-The two
Congressional campaign committees
have advised their respective candi-
dates to use their own judgment in
taking a stand upon the silver ques-
tion in the coming campaign. No set
policy upon silver is to be followed
and the silver plank in party plat
forms will be ignored. In this repect
it will be a go-as-you pleace race for
each candidate. Each man must
make his own terms with his constit-
uency.
The party organizations will make
no effort to dictate a silver doctrine to
the people at this time, but on the
contrary will place themselves in Il
receptive attitude to get the opinion
of the country by the time the next
nation meets, so it happens that di-
verse arguments are being made by
Republican candidates in the same
State, one man advocating silver and
another in an adjoing district taking
a more conservative stand. 1t is the
same case with respect to Democratic
upon this subject.
Feeling that the silver question is to
figure prominently in the campaign
the Republicans in preparing their
hand book have devoted a large
amount Of attention to finances.
Every statistic that candidate might
want upon either side of the silver
question is elaborately set forth, so
that the candidate can have no trouble
in supporting his arguments with fig
ures.
The opinion is very general that
there will be considerable discussion
of the silver question in the coming
short session of Congress. Senator
Gray of Delaware thinks that it will
figure very prominently in the debates
of the Senate, although it is not safe
TO predict that any action will come
from the talk.

Sugar Cane in California

WASHINGTON, Sept. 1.-THE Super
intendent Of the Sugar Experiment
Station in San Joaquin county, Cali
fornia, has sent report to the Agrl-
cultural Department, giving the con-
dition of growing crops of sugar and
cane, and stating the results which
have been attained in the cultivation
of sacchariue plants. The Superin-
tendept states that the most remarka-
BILE thing is the growth of the stalk of
cane after being planted so late. The
crop was planted in the latter part of
April, when it should have been
planted in February, but in spite of
being plante two months behind time
it has attained growth of five feet.
The rice he reports in excellent con-
dition, but says 1t has not yet headed.
The flax has ripened up and has made
a splendid crop of seed, but was plant
ed too late to make any fiber. He

states that sugar beets are the most
promising thing at this station. They
weigh nearly a pound apiece, and
promise a splendid Weld.

Shipping Fruit in Gas.

CHICAGO, Sept. IA new expert
ment is about to be tried in connec-
ton with shipping California fruit.
The arrangements are about complete.
Carbonic acid gas is shortly to be
tried, experimen,ally, as a substitute
for refrigeration in bringing Califor-
mia fruit to the Chicago market. The
charge for a refrigerating car from
California to Chicago is S125, and it is
to save this expense the experiment
will be made Growers who have
made the test claim that if fruit is
surrounded by carbonic acid gas in
stead of air all the process of decay
and deterioration are arrested and the
flavor of the fruit is not impaired.
An ordinary car has been zinc lined
so as to be practically air-tight. 1t
will be filed with fruit aud carbonic
acid then introduced. A condenser
filled with liquified gas will be placed
in the car a. supply from which to
repair any leakage which may occur.
The gas is obtained from an aban-
doned quicksilver mine near San Jose,
where, it is claimed, an inexhaustible
quantity exists. Should the expert
ment prove successful, fresh impetus
will be given to the fruit growing in
dustry of the Pacific Coast.

The Tennessee LyncliDe.
MEMPHIS, Tenn, Sept. 15.--Thir-
teen men have been indicted by the
Grand Jury for completely in the
| recent lynching of six negroes near
Millington, Tenn. OF that number
ten are in Jail and the other three will
be arrested before morning.
The Grand Jury made its report TO
Judge Cooper today and adjourned.
In concluding, the jury says 4: we
cannot close this report without eX-
pressing our horror of the cold blooded,
brutal butchery of the six defenseless
men, the cruelty of which would cause
even savage to hang his head in
shame, as shown by the evidence de-
veloped in the investigation. We in
dulge the hope that the most vigorous
prosecution will be continued until
every man engaged in it suffers the
extreme penalty of the law"
Successful Tests.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 19.-The War
Department has been notified by Man.
ager Phipps, President of the Ord
nance Board, which conducted the re-
cent tests of the dynamite gun bat
teries at Sandy Hook, n. Y, that the
guns worked well and that all of the
requirements of the contract had been
met. Consequently, the battery and
plant will be accepted and the Pneu-
matte Dynamite Company will be
paid $160,OOO for one inch and two
l5-inch guns, with all the boilers,
compressors and machinery, the shells
used in the tests and ten reserve pro-
jectiles for each gun. This experiment
having resulted well, work will be
pushed on the dynamite gun battery
for San Francisco harbor.
No More Indian Wars.
WAsHINToN, Sept. is. - General
Armstrong, Assistant Commissioner
of Indian Affairs, speaking of the
changes of United States troops and
the abandonment of several military
posts in the West, says it will have no
effect whatever upon the Indians.
"There is more DANGER" he said,
''from anarchists in Chicago than
from all the Indians in the West. In
dian wars are a thing of the past.
With the railroad facilities troops can
be transported from the large posts
more quickly than they can march
from any of the little posts which
have been abandoned"

Asiatic Empire has been urgently
striving for more than twenty years
to secure.
The treaty confers no immediate
advantages upon Japan. At least five
years must elapse before it goes into
operation, and it is for Japan to say
whether or not the interval shall be
longer, but until 1889 everything must
remain as it is now. The purpose of
this delay is that Japan shall perfect
her judicial system to an extent war
ranting the abolition of English law
courts.
All persons concerned in preparing
and negotiating the treaty have been
honored with high marks of consider
alton by the Japanese Government.
The Minister of Foreign Affairs, Mutsu
Munemitsu, has been raised to the
peerage, with the title of Viscount,
and a grant of forty thousand yen,
about $4,000 in gold. AS Minister at
Washington five years ago this official
was well known and very popular in
the eastern part of the United States.
He negotiated the Mexican treaty
with Japan, memorable as the only
enc, previous to the instrument just
enacted, in which Japan's autonomous
rights were recognized. Viscount
Aoki, Japanese Envoy at London,

Over the river on the HILL
Lieth village white and still
Over II sailing shadows 60
OF soaring hawk and screaming crow
All day long the forest trees
Shiver and whisper in the breeze.
And mountain grasses, low and sweet.
Grow in the middle of every street.
Over the river under the hill,
Lieth another village still
There see in the starry night,
Twinkling stars of household light;
Fires that CLEAN from the smithy's door.
Mists that rise on the river shore;
And in its streets no grasses grow.
For the countless wheels that 60 to and fro.
In that village on the hill,
Never is sound of smithy or mill
Its houses are thatched with grass an,
flowers,
Never a clock tells the passing hours;
Its marble doors are always shut,
You may not enter at hall or hut;
All the village are asleep,
Never again to moan or weep,
Never again in dreams TO sigh,
Silent and idle and low they lie.
In that village under the hill,
When the nights are starry and still.
Many an anxious soul in prayer
Looks to that other village there,
And, moaning and signing longs to go
Up to that home from this below;
Longs to lie by the forest wild,
Whittier have vanished wife and child
And, praying, heareth this answer fall,
Patience that village shall hold ye ALL"
