MONKEYS POLITENESS.

One day an Italian organ-grinder, ac-
companied by trained monkey, wan
dered into our town, and the man
stopped before house to play. The
monkey was an intelligent little fellow
and was attired in jacket and cap.
While the master was grinding out
the music, the monkey hoped down
from the organ where he had been
sitting, and jumping the fence, came
into my yard.
He was at once spied by fox terrier
of mine, and the dog made a rush at
him. The monkey awaited the on
set with such undisturbed tranquility
that the dog halted within few feet
of him to reconnoitre Both animals
took long, steady stare at each 9th
er, when suddenly the monkey raised
his paw and gracefully saluted his en-
envy by raising his hat.
The effect was magical. The dogs
head and tail dropped, and he sneak
ed off into the house and would not
leave it until satisfied that his polite,
but mysterious guest and departed.

BEL AIR, Md, JANUARY II, 1895,
WHEN MAMIE MIRRIED.

When Mamie married Charley Brown
Joy took possession of the town;
The young folks swarmed IN happy throngs-
They rang the bells, they caroled songs,
They carpeted the steps that led
into the church where they Were wed;
And up and down the altar-stair
They scattered roses everywhere
When, i'll her Orange-blossom crown,
Queen Mamie married Charley Brown.
So beautiful she was, it seemed
Men looking on her, dreamed they dreamed;
And he, the holy man who took
Her hand in his, SO thrilled and shook,
The gargoyles round the ceilings rim
Looked down and leered and grinned at him
Until he half forgot his part
OF sanctity, and felt his heart
Beat woodward through his sacred gown
When Mamie married Charley Brown.
The bridesmaids kissed her, left and right
Fond mothers Rugged her with delight
Young men of twenty-seven were seen
To blush like lads of seventeen
The while they held her band to quote
Such sentiments as poets wrote.
Yea, all the heads that homage bends
Were bowed to her-but oh, my friends,
My hopes went up-my heart went down
When Mamie married-Charley Brown!

GAS VERSUS POLITICS.

The people of the town of Craig, Neb.,
have earned unique place in history
Tuesday was election day in Craig, but
nobody ran for Mayor or Councilman
or City Clerk or for the Board OF Ed
ucation.
It appears that spouting gas well
was struck recently near Craig, and the
inhabitants spent election day grouped
around a hole in the ground and left the
polls deserted.
For once in the history OF popular
government politics has found rival,
and a fitting one. A gas. spouting well
is the only thing that has yet proved
effective in checking the ardor OF the
omnipresent and hustlinS office-seeker.
We have plenty OF gas spouters here
on election days, too, but you'll find
them at the polls instead, as many wish,
near hole in tho ground.

His Story Outdoes Munchausen.

While storming the first line Of forts O:
Port Arthur q soldier belonging to the
Twenty. fourth regiment raised his rifle to
fire at an unusually conspicuous China
man. Just as he was about to fire bullet
from the enemy's side came whizzing on,
and, marvellous to relate, entered the bar
rel of his own gun as smoothly and neatly
as IL the muzzles had been placed mouth
to mouth. OF course there was an explo-
sion, and the soldiers piece was shattered
to the stock, but without his receiving any
injuries whatever. A fractional variation
to the right or left would have caused the
hostile bullet to enter his head or face, SO
that his escape was nothing short Of mi
raoulous. He preserved the stock of the
now useless weapon and afterward exhib-
tied 1t to his colonel, who permitted him
to keep 1t as q memento of his narrow es-
cape. 1t Is probably the first instance Of
tho kind on record since Baron Munchau-

Swarms of locusts are well known to
have stopped railway trains but up to
this time 1t was probably never heard that
a single turkey had power to accomplish
that feat. How 1t was done, In Oxford,
Pa, is described In the Philadelphia Led
ger.
The engine was putting hard on an up
grade and passed under an overhangine
limb of large tree in front Of farm
house. On the limb were several turkeys
at roost. The exhaust steam was SO
strong that 1t knocked hen turkey from
her perch, and she came down upon the
bellrope.
The bell rang, and the engineer brought
tho train to q halt. Then OF course the
conductor hastened forward to know what
was the matter, and one Of the train
hands discovered the bird still fitting
upon the rope and giving utterance to
notes which, 1t is fair to presume, were
expressive Of surprise.
The men set up q roar, the bird took
wing, and the engine again began to puff

THE TIME TO ABDICATE.

Queen Victoria is seventy-five and
has reigned fifty-six years. Therefore,
when it was reported yesterday that
she WAS dead the story excited no sur
prise. She was known to be very i'll
lately with rheumatism-so i'll as to be
almost helpless. People are apt to i'm
agine that the labors of q Queen are not
such as to exhaust strength.
It is alleged, however, that in the
case of the Queen of England the du.
ties of the Office are arduous. If that
is 30, the Queen should abdicate, il
only from the conviction that she il
not equal to the duties. Surely a
woman of seventy-five, afflicted with a
grievously painful malady, compelled
to leave her own country for a more
genial climale, Is not equal to any
arduous duties, and ought not to con-
tinue to keep her successor out of his
place.

Ireland's Loss by Emigration.

Since 1864, through Ireland generally
and especially In the west, very early mar
riages have become less frequent. This do
crease of early marriages, especially among
women, accounts, says the registrar gon
eral, to a great extent for the diminutior
in tho average size of families in Ireland
and also explains in part the diminished
birth rate, which in the ten years from
1881 to 1890 had fallen from 24.5 to 90. 8
per 1000 Of the population. There ought
to have been an increase in the Irish pop
ulation in the ten years Of over $50, 600,
that being the increase of births over
deaths, but this natural increase has been
moro than counterbalanced by emigration,
so that in the same period the population
sunk by nearly 500 000.-London News.

BRIGHTER SIGNS.

Today's Financial News says that
employers are encouraged by the
brighter prospects for gradual and al
most sure return OF prosperity. They
have, in consequence, in numerous in
stances, commenced to voluntarily ad-
vance wages, which in itself is substan-
tial evidence Of their confidence in the
permanency of the improvement which
has already taken place, and in each in
stance where wages have been advanced
q corresponding makeup has been made
in the stock in trade of those who have
taken the initiative in this direction.
For the first time in many years, ex-
tensive railroad building is beyond
doubt to he commenced. A larger con-
struction OF mileage will probably be
made in the coming year than for
several recent years past. This cannot

ployes in the Mendocino Asylum, but
he could not help it. The directors
were pestered to death with applica-
lions, las every man in the county thinks
he is entitled to put an employe into
the asylum.
Senator Seawell thought they had en-
tered upon a subject that required con-
siderable thought. He did not think
there were too many employees, but that
the clerks salaries were too high, and
the clerical force could be reduced. He
moved that the committee appointed
formulate a pl an for equaliZing sala-
ries. He thought that such commit
tee should be able to frame law that
should take the place of all present laws
on the subject, and put all the asylums
under one management, and he so
moved The motion prevailed.
Dr. Hatch said that it would be a
great relief to the directors if the Sala-
ries were equalized.
Mr. McDougald, in answer to re-
mark by Secretary Of State Brown IN
relation to the increase of employees at
Stockton, said that much more care was
taken of the patients than formerly.
Those on the road to recovery were
turned out in the grounds, to separate
them from the chronics, and they had to
be watched in order that they might
not escape.
DR.. Gardner of Napa suggested that
the committee should consider the mat
ter of names for the State institutions.
In the East the practice is to call them
hospitals and to avoid illusions to the
insane as far as possible.
The Governor suggested that a uni
form form of application for positions,
with three indorsers, be adopted. In re-
lation to the appointment Of directors at
Napa and San Jose, he said that the law
! bound the Governor in each case to APP
point majority of the directors from
the county.
The matter of agreeing on uniform
system of keeping books was also re-
ferred to the committee, as well as all
other matters demanding attention,
and the board adjourned.

MUNlYO N
Wins His Fight.
Old-Fashioned Doctors and Their
Horrible NauSeating
Drugs
Knocked Out!
Sacramento People Show Their
Appreciation of Professor Nun
yOn's Honest Methods and De-
mand His Remedies and Will
Take No Substitutes

It is simply wonderful, said Munyon' S
representative, to watch the growth of
the publicS confidence in our rev
method of treating disease. About i've
years ago we began our first free dis
tribution of Munyon's remedies. At
that time very few persons IN the
United States had ever heard the name
before; but his honest, frank and fearless
letter to the press demanding a public IN
vestigation of his claims opened Their
eyes to the fact that there was at ieast
one medical company in the world VINO
had the honest conviction OF the value
OF their remedies, and believed tnat
they had discovered positive cures Tor
disease, and over 100000 people have
called at the various newspaper offices
In the principal cities to test his liberal
offer of free distribution.
The distribution just ended brougns
over 5000 people, who now know that
Professor Munyon's remedies cannot be
surpassed or their curative qualities
equaled. Where can you find parallel
to this wonderful confidence of the puo-
lie in Munyon?
Curiosity may have prompted some,
and others may have thought there was
something behind the liberal offer.
Most, no doubt, doubling the existence
Of remedies that were guaranteed to
cure 80 per cent. Of those who tried
them, but when they found that Pro
fesSor Munyon was in earnest, accepted
their free sample and left with the de-
termination to give the remedy fair
test. What is the result so far? Tes-
timonials are coming in from AL sides
reporting the wonderful cures effected,
and Munyon's New School of Medl-
cine is the topic of conversation in
Sacramento.
What better proof can one ask Of the
efficacy of these little pellets? Ad-
vertising, no doubt, has brought them
to the notice of the California public,
but the sole reason of their enormous
success is that they do cure disease and
are just what is claimed for them-the
triumph Of modern medical science.
