AN Exciting Afternoon Lately.

DIR, Da Vid starr JOrdau's Pet Which hau
Exciting Afternoon Lately.
From the san Francisco Call.
DIR. David Starr Jordan Of Stanford
university. has been varying his scien-
tifc studies Of the origin of species
lately by experiments with mOHheys
with a view to shedding light upon the
problem of the missing link He has
several pets of the monkey tribe and
among them is one which, by reason OF
its display of intelligence, has become
his especial favorite. The doctor has
also a large ST. Bernard dog which he
keeps about his home. The monkey
and the dog get on well together and
hence DR.. Jordan often ties his pets to-
gether in order that the former may
be protected and not get lost The st.
Bernard has one pleasure which he
greatly enjoys, and that is to follow
the family carriage to the railway sta
ton
Well, last Sunday afternoon the
coachman started off with the car
rage to the station. The two pets
were tied together as usual, but the
dog, i'm his eagerneSs TO follow, forgot
the fact and bounded after the car
riage, dragging the poor monkey be-
hind him down the dusty road at a
rate of speed which threw him off his
feet and rolled him over and over in
the dust in the most ridiculous way.
At last one of the students saw the
monkeys plight and. stopping the dog,
ran off for Or. Jordan and brought
him to the scene. Up to this time the
genial doctor and the monkey had
been on the best of terms but now the
bedra ggled ape regarded him as the
author of his misfortunes, and would
not look at him or follow him or allow
himself TO be taken home. Dr. Jordan
was nonplused to know what TO do
with his monkey. until one of the col
lege boys happened along on his bicy-
Gle and seeing the doctors dilemma
offered to let the monkey ride home on
his wheel As soon as the monkey was
made to comprehend the idea Of the
bicycle ride he became Modified at
Cnce and perched upon the seat. WHERE
he sat in great state and high glee
while the doctor and the student
wheeled him home.
Or. Jordan is aid to he of the opinion
from the accident that valuable con-
tribution has been added TO tine cause
of science. and that the problem Of the
missing link has been advanced sew
eral stages toward solution.

brought here Saturday night and de-
posted in the vault. Hundreds Of peo-
pie went to the cemetery Sunday. ana
for several hours a large crowd gazed
at the casket through the iron gratings
of the door. In the forenoon the father
and mother of the murdered girl. and
her sisters and brothers. visited the
cemetery and entered the vault. Mrs.
Bryan was so overcome by the sad
spectacle of the headless trunk of her
daughter that she swooned in the vault
and the father was nearly overcome in
a similar manner.
While the relatives were i'm the vault
there was a meeting of young and mid
die aged men of the city some distance

of these pledged themselves TO each
other to avenge the girls death If the

THIN-SKINNED ORANGES.
why DO Planters Only Raise Thick
Coated and Rpu, Ones?

why DO Planters Only Raise Thick
Coated and Rpu IA Ones?
From Meehan's Monthly.
1t has often been questioned why
orange growers will graft and plant
varieties with thick skins when the
great public appreciates a thin
skinnedi one more highly. Asking a
grower, If not one Of the secrets Of the
orange growing trade. why this was
thus, he replied that the thin skinned
kinds were rarely as productive as the
thick skinned ones-that the public
would give no more for box of thin
skins than for a box of thick ones-and
as there was consequently more profit
in growing orange skins than in grow
ing orange flesh. the skins carried the
day.
We have never heard such an ex-
PLANTATION before. and this may be only
''chaff." stu. the great question re
mains, why do orange growers graft
and plant thick skinned sorts when
the thin skins are preferable?
