Rich Hill Review.
Notwithstanding tie severity of
the storm Of the preceding evening,
and the unsettled and threaten ming
condition Ct the weather yestt rday
mo,ning, there was q large crowd of
people in Rich Hill throughout the
day to witness the parade of Wood
men of the World and their unwilling
ceremonies at Green Lawn cemetery
Sunday afternoon. The hne Of march
wss taken up at Prospect Park in
the East Eod and extended from
there to the cemetery. There we're
ten bands of music in line, and
twelve delegations OF Woodmen.
These walked four abreast, while
there were buggies, carriages and
other vehicles by the hundreds, not
to mention the citizens on foot.
The different delegations repre-
sented were from the following
towns: Ft. Scott, Nevada, ElDorado,
Schell City, Jasper, Harrisonville,
Hume, Adrian, Butler, Pleas anton,
Amoret and Kansas City.
The Woodmen Circle of Ladies, to
the number of SO, in come ction with
tia ladies' Woodmen Circle OF Rich

more, occupied carriages in the
parade.
The ceremonies at the grave of
Sovereign Bahliog, where the unveil.

impressive.

AFRICA'S APE PEST.
The Ugly Animal a Great Curse to
the Cane Colony.

The South African colonists have got
rid Of their lions and elephants, but
they have not yet been able to get the
better of the balloons. A baboon, al
though somewhat like a dog, has all
the pnischievousness of a man. 1t is
the ugiicst animal in all creation. The
Beers call him Adonis, and never des-
ignate him under the>official name that
has beer given him by science.
Now this creature is the curse of the
Cape Colony. He commits depredations
for the love of the thing Any impru-
dent tomcat that ventures too far away
from home is sure to be captured and
straugled for fun by a baboon. Nearly
all the Angoras, the choicest and most
costly animals imported by the colo
nists. have been destroyed by these
huge monkeys. Even the dogs share
the same fate The bravest and most
pugnacious of the English canine
breeds are unable to cope with adver-
saries armed with just as powerful
jaws, with the immense advantage of
having four hands instead of four
paws With dexterity that conspicu-
ously exhibits its surgical aptitude, the
baboon bIeeds his enemy in the throat,
and in less than a minute the duel ends
in the death of the dog.
One of the principal amusements Of
these big monkeys is to gambol around
the wire fences that protect the tame
ostriches just to terrify them The
panic among them is so great that they
often break their legs in their wild
rusheS. This is a pastime which the
monkey seems to enjoy hugely A
broken leg for an ostrich means a

The record-union., 1897-11-04

was founded last December, when the
orange industry was threatened with
serious injury by the reckless manner
in which certain Eastern dealers re-
tected fruit on arrival without just and
sufficient cause. The Fruit Growers
and Shippers Association has succeed
ed in regulating this trouble, and the
organization is looked upon by reputa-
bic Eastern dealers as a protection to
them as we'll as to the sellers interest
at this end. All members of the asso-
citation are governed by the action of
the Executive Committee in terms of
sale and the proportion of sizes in
oranges and lemons constituting the
standard car in trade parlance.
The organiza ton is representative
Southern California institution, its men,
bership representing the control of fully
70 per cent. of this years crop. So
successful has been this organization in
the line of work mapped out for it that
at the meeting on Saturday many i'm
portant accessions were made to the
ranks Of membership. The organiza-
ton is maintained principally for the
support of the f. 0. b. method in mark
eting oranges, and to give strength to
the home market by the practical elm
ination of trade abuses, and the estab-
lishment of uniform terms and trade
customs in that method of shipping
fruit. The membership now includes
all the packers and shippers, with many
of the growers associations and prom
inent individual growers and shippers
in all parts of Southern California.
At the afternoon session the Execu-
tive Committee formally reaffirned the
regulations governing a standard car
that governed last seasons work, with
the exception of the arrangement for
discounts on off-sized ST. Michaels,
which will be arranged later in the sea-
son. that variety being the last to
ripen.
In the matter Of selling terms con-
siderable discussion was provoked over
a movement to change them to a fiat
sight draft without discount For many
years California oranges were sold f. o.
b. subject to a thirtyday draft. This
has been changed TO uniform agree
ment to sell subject to fifteen-day draft
less | per cent. for cash, if paid on ar
rival Of goods.
The members of the association in
general meeting compared notes and
agreed that the estimate of 10000 to
12000 carloads was about correct.
Every one reported that the fruit was
coloring rapidly during the past two
weeks, and that there would be large
quantity of navels ready for shipment

by blood troubles is self-evident when

first days business of the Indiana Music
Teachers Association began with the adj
dress of President Stetler, which included
a brief history of the association for TWEEN
ty years. He looks with pride on the fact
that such an association is the first in the
Union. He was of the opinion that Hoosiers
were too backward, and, while commencing
modesty, did not think it the proper method
to arouse enthusiasm. He closed his re-
marks by compimenting the work of the
various committees. The secretary's re-
port was short and to the point. 1t showed
slight falling off compared with last year.
The reports of the treasurer and commit
tees were read and accepted Committees
on nominations and resolutions were next
appointed, and afterwards came business

Want to Be an Angel was false, but Let

was interesting, all agreeing tnat poetry
