THE LION-MONkEY.
Beguiles His Master and Gains q Tenn
pOrary Freedom.

Beguiles His Master and Gains Tenn
porary Freedom.
The silky marmoset. or lion monkey,
is very rare species, found only in the
neighborhood of Cape Frio, just north
of Rio de Janeiro. They are not much
larger than squirrel, and have beauti-
full, long, silky, bright, golden fur, like
a child's fair hair. Their popular name
is derived from their being the very
image of little lions, miniature name
and all.
The specimen I once had for a pet,
like most of his kind, was intensely
very tame. did not keep him in cage,
but encircled his body with a soft belt,
to which thin, light watch chain, not
more than a half yard long, was at
tached. The other end of this was fast
ened to slender ring, travelling freely
up and down an upright pole six feet
high, at the top of which was a long
cross-bar, placed T-wise; so that, as
YOU will see, the monkey had plenty OF
scope for exercise without much risk
of getting entangled, and yet was con:
find within a limited area.
One morning I found his chain
snapped and him gone, and had some
little bother to find him and secure him
again. I was rather surprised at this,
as he had always seemed to approve of
the ng-and-chain arrangement, AMI
never attempted to get away. The
next morning the same thing happened,
and the neN.. and I then became con-
vinced that lie must have been sorely
frightened during the night.
Seeking for a cause, noticed that his
tin of boiled rice was always emptied
clearly, and as the little rascal himself
was too fond of banana and sapodilla to
eat much rice, I shrewdly suspected
rats.
Accordingly the next night baited
a cage-trap with some salt fish-which
is much more attractive than toasted
cheese-and set it just in the line of
route between the jalousie, through
which l judged they must enter, and
Leo's stand.
But the following morning a broken
fragment of chain again dangled from
the ring, the rice was all gone and the
monkey was sitting sedately in the rat
trap, where he had beguiled the hours OF
his captivity by eating up the salt fish,
greatly to his subsequent arrangement.

He was the loving son OF John and
Amanda Valentine, and his death was
caused by Bright's disease of the kid

we should all willingly submit, knowing
that He doeth all things we'll, and try to

Is no death to mar our joys. So fare
thee we'll
There is no death!

To shine in heaven,
Bright crown jewels for ever more.
While we are bowed in grief from the
loss OF our dear beloved brother, son and
friend, hoaven is rejoicing, and the angels
sing and rejoice as they gather round the
great white throne to welcome another
eternal soul. What is our loss is bis
eternal gain. The wealth of earth conld

Principles, Not Men.

In Kentucky the voter announces the
name OF the candidate he votes for. Years
ago, Robert Croome, noted man, was
the Wing candidate for Congress in that
State, and while standing near the polls
he saw an old farmer he knew to be his
mortal enemy walk up to the polls to
vote. "Who do you vote for?" asked the
commissioner. II vote for Robert
Croome," said the old man. Croome
thinking his old enemy had mellowed
toward him, etcpped forward to shake
hands. Folding his arms together, the
Old farmer said, 'Go to hill, Robert
Croome; did not vote for you! Ivoted
for the Wing partyr'

disturbed over the Republicans here

good government. Wonder what they
think about the Republicans in New Or

After they have relieved their pent-up
feelings over these two little items, then
let them discuss the situation in st.
James, Assumption, st. John, Ascension
Baton Rouge and about half dozen
other parishes, and maybe they can dis
cover to what great extent their rotten
so-cailed Populist- Republican combine
has been repudiated.

Look Out for Liars.

We are told that the report has been
circulated that some of the candidates in
the field will come down from the race
Just on the eve of the election. All such
reports may be regarded as campaign
lies pure and simple, as every man on the
ticket is in the field to finish, and there
is no intention Or disposition on the part
OF any man on either side to abandon the
race. The Democratic candidates. in
are very confident. and from
the widespread assurances they have re-
ceived all OF them have good reason TO
regard their election as certainty.

Last Saturday we learn that Parson
PAtten, the Pop candidate for Senator,
ssnt word to j. I. Wallace. the Demo
cratic candidate, that be challenged him
to Joint debate! As Wallace gave Patten
an invitation to joint debate at Ada, six
days previous, which was declined. it
looks little fishy for Patten to take a
whole week to make up his mind on the
debate. However, there is nothing short
about Bro. Wallace, and so he sent Bro.
Patten word to be present at any Of his
appointments in Grant for the first three
days OF this week and he would be ac-
commodated.

The indications in Grant are that the
election next Tuesday will pass off peace.
ably and without further trouble than
may occur from drunkenness or casual
rows between imprudent individuals
Both sides are alive and watchful Of
their interests. but this fact will tend
more to preserve the peace than to dis.
turb it. We would especially caution all
against the criminaIity OF going armed
to the polls. There is no need for it, as
any and all rights can be preserved by
watchfulness. The Law is wisely against
going to the polls armed, and every man
who violates it should be punished. 1t
only breeds trouble, and can serve no
good end, as an exhibition of force on
one side is sure to be met by force on the
other.

The ordinary rules of propriety should
have prompted Mr.. w. W.. Smith, the
Populist candidate for sheriff, to resign
from the board of supervisors of cleo
ton. Clerk Shackelford should have
appointed another man in his place.
These gentlemen, we understand, de.
fend their position and contend that there
is no law prohibiting candidate from
counting and promnlgatipg the vote for
himself; but We are satisfied that in case
OF a contest, or even if his opponents
we're to interpose objection, its illegality
and unfarness would certainly be estab-
iished. 1t looks very much like pur
posely arranged complication to hamper
the board with the incubus of disquali-
fieation on the part Of Mr.. Smith, owing
to his interest in the election.

Bro. Machen has been publishing two
long columns in the district papers fcr
the last two or three weeks in the vain
endeavor to establish his ability to act
as Judge. The burden OF his song is tina.
because the supreme court gave him L.
cense to practise law, it establishes all
doubt ON the subject. He apparently
couldn't get anybody in the district to
give him a certificate as to his liability"
SO he has called in the services Of Mr..
