Monkeys Caught by Beer.

It is difficult to find a good reason for
the existence of beer, but the inhabi-
tants Of Darfur, Africa, have at least
a novel method for its use. The beer,
a kind manufactured by the natives, is
placed where the monkeys can get at it,
and when they have become sufficient
" intoxicated, the negro takes the hand
of one to lead him away. Thereupon,
another monkey takes the hand of the
first one,a and SO on until a long line is
formed and the whole number taken
captive. 1t is sad to reflect that so
many Of the human race show no more
wisdom than do these monkeys in being
led captive by beer.-The Organizer.

A Potato Pointer.

An English scientist. after careful eX-
periments, finds that when potatoes are
Cooked without removing the skins
they lose only 5 per cent Of nntraitive
Quality through extraction of the Juice.
When the skins were removed before
boiling, the loss was IA per cent, which
makes the process of cooking the pota-
toes without their jackets an exceeding
lv wasteful one.

Commodore smith Is perfectly correct

gard that difficulty as quite settled. /
have the greatest objections to racing after
the end of September. Now that that
trouble is over, the only stumbling block
seems to bc the question of the receipt for

mind when decided to challenge, and Mr..
Grant secretary of the Royal Yacht squad
ron, wrote the challenge in the same form
as that sent in 1892 and posted 1t without
a suspicion that il would not he accepted.
Anyhow the matter quite concerns the
two clubs and not me. | have sent Com
modore Smiths remarks in regard to this
matter to the Royal Yacht squadron, which
will deal with them"
Lord Dunrnycn concluded by saying:
You can tell the people on the other
side that all want Is to be allowed to
race. II win, do not care whether they
give me the cup or not. ="

FAMILY BUTCHERED.


children and Commits suicide.
RIDGEwAY, Mo, Dec. I2-The most
horrible human butchery ever recorded in
this section was committed five miles
southwest of this city. David G Spragg,
in "A fit OF insanity, murdered his wife and
two children and mortally wounded his
two stepchildren with n butcher knife.
then took his own life with n rifle.
The nearest ncighbor of the Spraggs
lived almost a mile distant, and IL was
some time before the news of the crime
spread. In a few hours numbers of people
arrived from town. and an investigation
of the scene was made. The most sicken
ing sight met their gaze. Evidences of q
terrible struggle were plainly visible in
the Spragg house. The walls, books, stove
and furniture were spattered with blood /;
chairs were upset, the oil can overturned
and things generally turned upside down.
The particulars of tho butchery ARE learn
ed from Dora Onstatt, a steptaughter Of
Spragg. She is n child of IL years, and
after eluding her stepfather's murieruus
grasp escaped to n neighbours and gave the
alarm. Her statement Is that Spragg had
been complaining all morning Of an ach-
ing head, and his nearest neighbor, Mr.
Meyers. was sent TO Ridgeway for o ply
stefan. Soon after Meyers departure
Spragg tied the hands of one child behind
him and deliberately cut his throat. Mrs.
Spragg ran into the room ut this point
and attempted TO interfere when Spragg
made n lunge at her. She ran out into the
yard, around the house and then into it
again. closely followed by Spragg.
In the house he caught her, and dcs-
pcrate struggle ensucd He literally hack
cd her head and face into slices, and then
cutting her head almost from the body
dragged her by the hair into the yard.
Covered with blood and every minute be-
coming more frenzicd. the human monster
now returned TO the house again to con-
tinue his work. Dora. who was sick in
bed, had climbed out of window in the
meantime and escaped.
When the people first began to arrive,
they Were deferred from entering by
Spragg. who stood in the doorway with n
loaded shotgun. Finally Spragg locked
the door, and IL was then that he butcher
cd his stepchildrcn. Just as the crowd
was preparing tn break into the house two
shots were heard, and when the door was
finally forced open Spragg was dead, and
the scene rs described was presented to
view. The two stcpchildren, who were still
alive, were cared for, but cannot recover
