HOSPITAL FOR sEAMeN AT HooUIAM
May BE Established If the Hospital Fund
Is Kestored.


Is RESTORED.
Washington, Jan. 26.-St. David's hos
pital at Hoquiam, Wash, is DESTROYS of
being awarded the contract for the care
of seamen i'll the Gray's Harbor dis
trict. No action has been taken upon
the application by Surgeon General
Wyman because of the reduced receipts
from the tonnage tax caused by the pas
sage of an act by the last congress
amending the law regarding the meas
urement of vessels for tonnage.
A bill has been introduced in the house
which, if passed, will restore the Ma
rine hospital fund to its former status.
Representative Doolittle has been urg-
ing upon the supervising general some
definite action in the matter of the
Grays Harbor hospital service, and has
just been informed that in the event OF
an increased tonnage tax the bureau
will undoubtedly feel justified in estab-
fishing station at Hoquiam.

CHAMBERLAIN IS MORE PACIFIC
Believes the Venezuelan Affair Has Not
Been PrOperIy INTERPRETED.


London, Jan. 25.-The Right Hon.
Joseph Chamberlain, secretary of state
for the colonies, in speaking at Bir-
mingham tonight said regarding the
Venezuelan matter that he thought
there had been much apprehension on
both sides of the water. When Sec
rotary Olney's dispatch and President
Cleveland's message were delivered the
feeling was reluctantly entertained in
England that the Americans must have
some hostile sentiments which England
did not share and that the United States
England. The idea seemed to prevail in
America that England was disposed to
impugn the Monroe doctrine-a doc
trine to which the people of the United
States rightly attached much import
ance and it was also believed in Amer
lea that Great Britain was disposed to
deal in a harsh and arbitrary manner
with Venezuela, but reflection had
brought about a more favorable under
standing and America would regard
with horror a war with those of her own
blood and kindred.
president Cleveland, whose ac-
quaintance L have the honor to pos
sess," said Chamberlain, in conclusion,
bears a. high reputation for rectitude
and honorable dealings. He is inca
pable of the wickedness Of melting two
kindred nations to strife and blood

MONKEY LIGHTS MATCHES.
But Has Not the Intelligence to kindle a
 Fire with Them.

But Has Not the Intelligence to Kindle Fire with Them.
 s No creature but man has ever made use of fire. An African traveller, indeed, has told story of apes making a thiev- ing raid on camp of natives, and car rying torches to light their way; but this story lacks proof, and is not ac- cepted as true by zoologists.
 There is, however, says the Youths Companion, in the Philadelphia zoologi- cal garden monkey who has learned to scratch matches perfectly well. This accomplishment he is willing to exhibit on any occasion. He has learned to hold the match by it's middle part, so that his fingers are not burned by being too near the flame, and so that the match will not break by being held too near the other end.
 This fact involves another, that he is aware which end has the sulphur, and does not attempt tc scratch the unsul- phured end. He has furthermore learned that rough surface is better to scratch the match on than a smooth one, and his care in looking for the rough places is very diverting..
 But with all these intelligences, the monkey has no notion of kindling an- other fire with the one that he has caused by the friction of the match. He simply lets the match burn out, and if he lights another, does it for the pleas ure of seeing it burn.
 This monkeys keepers, and the men of science who are experimenting with his intelligence, hope to communicate to him eventually an idea of fire making and using; but from the moment they succeed in doing so-if they ever do sue ceed-it will be necessary to keer matches out of his reach.

 ! The form" of bicycling is beginning to be studied. Grooms on wheels must follow their mistresses as they did on horseback; it is probably only a ques- ton of short time when the lady's maid will have to include wheeling with her other accomplishments to secure a situation. On tine road the woman who wishes to ride la mode has to know a number of little things that are over looked by another woman, just as the smart set have code for riding and driving that is as inexorable as that they should not eat with their. knives or put sugar on oysters. Society in- sists on an upright position, with, of course, no attempt at racing pace. It also frowns upon constant ringing oi the bell-that will do for the vulgar herd who delight in noise; the well-in- formed wheelwoman keeps eyes and ears alert and touches her bell rarely.

BOUGHT ANOTHER'S MUSTAcHE.
Paid the Price, But Failed to Get the
 Goods.

Talo tne frlce, But Failed to Get the
 Goods.
 A singular story is reported from St. Calais. A few days ago several per- sons were sitting at table in local hotel, when the splendid mustache of a horse dealer became the subject of conversation. One of the members of the party complimented the horse deal CT and asked him for what price he would sell his mustache. "Ten francs" :" replied the latter, laughingly. q will buy half of them," said the would-be purchaser, placing five francs on the table. The horse dealer put the money in his pocket and later in the evening left the hotel. Not quite approaching the joke, the man who was minus the five francs sought the aid of the county court process server, and having laid the information in regular form brought action against the horse dealer for 800 francs damages for non-execu- tion of his contract.

THE BENEFICENT CROW.
What He Does for the Farmer Despite E His Reputation.

s His Reputation.
 If farmers would make study of natural history and it's bearings on their property-the relation of hawks to their hen coops, for instance-there would be better paying crops.
 The Year Book of the department of agriculture tells about COW black birds and what they eat. About 2,300 of their stomachs have been examined, and of these 2,25S contained food. The birds were killed in 26 states. Forty eight per cent. of the food was animal, 4S per cent. vegetable and four per cent. was mineral. The blackbird has a variety of things it eats.
 ''The animal food,'' says the report, consisted of insects, spiders, myria- pods (thousand legs), crawfsh, earth worms, sowbugs, hair snakes, snails, fishes, tree toads. salamanders (newts), lizards, snakes, birds eggs and mice." To these might have been added young birds, fish cast up by the tide, minnows caught while swimming in shallow water, and probably meat and carrion of various kinds. Most of the animal food is, of course, insects. These con- stitute 46 per cent. of the total, the other two per cent. being the larger things, like mice. The animal food is taken mostly in the summer. In win ter the food is mostly vegetable matter. The insects the bird kills more than make up the damage he does, especially as his nest robbing appears to, be only an accidental habit not often indulged in. A large flock of the birds would oi course destroy lot of grain. Some 50,000 would eat about 5000 pounds a day, but they would consume as many insects, which would more than de. stroy the amount the birds do.
