An Invisible Monkey.

There are many animals, especially
birds and insects, which mimic in Jheir
colors and shapes the natural objects amid
which they dwell, and thus frequently
escape the eyes of their enemies, but, as
DIR. Lydekker says in knowledge, "Until
quite recently no case was known where a
monkey, for the sake Of protection, resem
bled in form or coloration either some 9th
er animal or an inanimate object" Such
monkeys were discovered by DR.. j. W.
Gregory during his recent journey in east
Africa. Near relatives CT the monkeys
seen by him have long been known to nat
uralists, and have excited surprise by the
brilliant contrast of the black fur covering
their body and limbs with the snow white
mantle Of long, silky hair hanging from
their shoulders and the equally white
plumes ON their tails This contrast, DR.,
Gregory found, serves to render the ami
mails practically invisible, for the treea
which they inhabit have black stems and
are draped with pendent ,nassos Of gray
white lichen, amid which the monkeys
can hardly be distinguished.

disease can-if you strengthen UP the weak
places of the system and keep them strong.
When the system begins to show signs of
poor, weak, impoverished blood when di-

normal standard, then is the time to be anx-

When We Demoralize the Stomach
By excess or imprudence in eating, we
cannot hope to escape the consequences
for any great length of time. The most
robust digestion must succumb to abuses
of that important function. But sup
posing that we have been foolish enough
to enfeeble the stomach, ia the damage
irreparableS By no means. The dys-
peptic has only to do two things to in
sure his ultimate recovery. First, he
should adopt an easily digestible diet.
Second, he should use with regularity and
persistence, Hostetter's Stomach Bitters,
the leading gastric invigorant of the age.
The multlform symptoms of dyspepsia,
and the almost invariable attendant dis
orders, biliousness and constipation, will
assuredly cease to persecute the sufferer
if the above advice is attended to. Who
that has suffered the torments that chronic
indigestion inficts will neglect to take
advantage of remedy which, if the most
positive evidence OF the medical profess
sion and the public is to be received with
due oredence, is an absolute specific for
the complaint.

TELEGRAM SAVED HIS LIFE.
A Stockton's Mans Escape-Mistake Of

A Stockton's Mans Escape-Mistake OF
a Druggist Nearly Fatal.
Sacramento, Aug. 3O.-George Ladd,
one of the most prominent wholesale
liquor-dealers in Stockton, left this City
tonight for Portland, Ore, to seek his
health. Before he left he had doc
tors prescription filled at one of the
leading drug g-stores, but as fortune would
have it he received telegram in time
to keep him from taking the medicine.
Had the telegram failed to reach him he
would have died from the effects of a
deadly dose.
The clerk who filed the prescription
took a wrong bottle and put in col
rosive srolimate instead of the drug that
was written in the prescription. The
error was discovered about two hours
after the train had started and tele-
gram was sent ahead in the almost vain
hope that it would reach him in time.
The telegram said:
''Do not take the medicine; it is
poison and sure death.
A duplicate of the dispatch was sent
to Chief of Police Drew, of this city;
and instructions were given to the Off
GERS, who boarded the train just as, Mr..
Ladd was about to take the dose that
would have ended his life, and the tele-
graph triumphed over the bungling of

| WHEAT STILL GOING Up
The Chicago Market Above
the Dollar Mark.
FIRST TIME DURING CAMPAIGN
Shortage in Foreign Potato Crop Esti-
mated at 1000, 100000 Bushels
Price of Corn Also Rising.

Chicago, Aug. 30.-Today, for the
first time since the present bull cam
paign in wheat was started, the price
of September wheat sold above the dol
lar mark in Chicago. Ten minutes al
ter the opening, $1.O31a was offered,
an advance over yesterdays closing
price of 6 cents. Even at that tempt
ing figure, the bull clique refused to let
60 of their holdings. Enough wheat
came on the market to break the price
to SO rs cents by the time the closing
bell sounded. but the brokers who were
engineering the deal stoutly denied
that it came from them.
There was, perhaps, shade of ma
liciousness in the way they forced the
shorts to bid up. 1t was currently re.
ported on Monday. when prices broke
SO sharply, that the pool was forced to
put up 100000 in margins. They
certainly had their revenge today. The
rise was plainly due to the clique,
which is now swelled, by rumor, to in
clude Joseph Letter, George R. French,
Allen, Grier & Co., and James Keene,
of Wall street. The only leader,
George French, who appeared distinct
ly above the surface, makes no secret
that he has, line of 5000, 900 bushels
of September wheat. There was not
much more than /, ,100,O 900 bushels of
contract wheat in Chicago, with hardly
anything coming, and an immense
short line of cash wheat sold for ex-
port. This is the situation as it now
plays into the hands of the bull COM
bine.
The sudden rise of September wheat
was not reflected in any other large
market in the country, with the excep-
tion of Minneapolis, where September
bounded from 90 cents to 81. St.
Louis advanced 2 cents at one time,
but relapsed to the opening prices for
December.
Although statistics were not given
much attention, one item of foreign
news had distinct influence. The
foreign potato crop shortage is estimat-
ed at the total of 1000, 100000 BUSH
els, which was expected to increase the
demand for American wheat. It's infu-
ence was especially felt in December
wheat, which is not supposed to be un-
der the thumb of any clique. Corn
and provisions were both affected by
the excitement in wheat. In corn, the
trading was enormous, and although an
advance of l to d cents was recorded,
the feeding was very strong at the close.
The closing for provisions was Is to
20 cents higher.

snit for 81 $50 damages has been filed
in this county which develops sensa-

Higgins and her daughter, of Atlanta,
have been spending the summer here,
and in the burning of the Grandview
hotel, at which they were stopping,
lost their possessions, amounting to
$ls550. They sued the proprietor to
recover.
Mrs. B. A. Young, proprietress of
the hotel, files an answer alleging in
substance that at an evening social the
young lady was hypnotized and COM
manded to fire the hotel. When she
retired to her room it is claimed that
she literally obeyed the injunction and
robbed herself of right to sue.

CONCESSION TO AMERICANS,
Valuable Commercial Privileges Sc.

right to navigate the Magdalena river
and to build railroad across the coun-
try from point $50 miles from the
mouth of the river at Bogota, and thence

Quartz Mining More Certain.

Washington, Aug. 3o.-General w.
w. Dufield, superintendent of the
coast and geodetic survey, in discussing
the gold discoveries in Alaska, gave
this advice to young men:
If l were young man" he said,
81 should get about 75-ton schooner
at Seattle, take supplies and engage
'the services of first-class prospector.
Then I should cruise along the south
eastern part of Alaska, in what is
called Alexander archipelago. There
aresa number of islands there and more
gold lodes than at any place with which
am acquainted. The mining would
not be splacers,' but the ore can be got
ten out very cheaply and being directly
on the sea, the transportation amounts
to nothing, except the time spent.'

NEWS FROM THE ISLANDS.
Hawaii Has Not Yet Received Japan's
Answer.

San Francisco, Aug. 80. - The
steamer Mariposa arrived this morning
from Sydney, via Honolulu, with the
following Hawaiian advices:
The Hawaiian government has not
yet received any answer from Japan
regarding the offer to refer the immi-
grafton trouble to arbitration. There
is no change in the situation here.
The China registry case was finally
submitted to Judge Perry for decision
August 10, and an early decision is
confidently expected, as the matter will
in all probability be appealed to the
supreme court. It is predicted that
the question of the big steamers regis
try will be settled before she reaches
here again in October. The principal
point upon which the Hawaiian govern
ment rules is the question of McFar-
lanes citizenship, he having been
born on the island of British parents.

FATE OF THE BENDERS.
The Old Man and Kate Were Shot by
Posse.

The Old Man and Kate Were Shot by
Wichita, Kan. Aug. 31.-Another
chapter is added to the gruesomo story
of the Bender family, whose home in
Montgomery county over 20 years ago
was the scene of upward of 80 murders,
according to the deathbed confession of
Captain Carroll. The fate of the
Benders has heretofore been veiled in
mystery.
Captain Carroll confessed that band
of citizens, sworn to eternal secrecy,
followed the Benders after their fight
from the scene of their crimes and
killed Kate and the old man, but let
Mrs. Bender go, with warning never
to return on pain of death.
He said that Kate and her mother
stood by and stoically watched the men
riddle the body of William Bender with
bullets, and then when Kate's turn
, came she stepped out like tragedy
queen and said:
''Blaze away"
She was shot down like a dog, but
when it came to shooting the mother,
the hearts of the posse failed them and
they allowed her to go. The bodies
were carefully buried and the graves
concealed,
