A Valuable Drug Which Habitual Use
Makes N Horrible Poison.

1t IL a remarkable fast that those who
yield most blindly to the influence of drugs
are usually persons of brilliant intellect
and delicate mental poise, for whom a
grosser stimulant would have little attrao-
ton. A sad case in point is that of a young
physician in Cleveland who returned re
Gently from Europe, where he had been
taking IA hospital course under famous
London surgeon, only to die within
month, pitiful wreck.
While in London an unfortunate love af
fair so depressed the young mans spirits
that he had recourse to stimulant to en-
able him to pursue his work with concen-
trated effort. He chose cocaine and finish
ed his course with distinguished success,
sailing for home shortly afterward a slave
in BODY and soul to tn, deadly habit. The
talents and ,biiiy of the victim and the
prominence Of his family give an unusual
interest to this instance, though there Is
not a city in the land that has not its par
allel
Since the beginning of time mankind
has sought surcease of pain in nature s sim
pies, and, when found. the balm has not
infrequently proved a bane to the life of
the beneficiary. More than l,500 years
ago the Cnlnt>e employed inulaD nelnp u

ence to suffering The Greeks and Ro-
mans used nandragora as "a sedative, and
in the thirteenth century 1t was combined
with the essence of the poppy.
Since the beginning of the present cen
tury a number Of an@Sthetics of varying
degrees Of usefulness have been discovered
and introduced into their own departments
of medical practice Chief among them
and regarded as the greatest blessing Of all
is chloroform. Cocaine, an alkaloid Of
cocoa leaves, was discovered in 1852 but
remained in comparative obscurity until
1881.
In minute doses, whether taken inter
nally or used as n spray on mucous sur

producing for time the fresh and buoyant
sensations of youth and perfect health,
that have apparently no unpleasant reac-

Between Five Hundred and Six Hundred
Imported Annually-Buyers and Prices.
There are wported into this country 500
or 600 monkeys annually which come
chiefly from Africa and India by way of
Europe. Natives catch the monkeys and
carry them down to the shipping ports,
where they sell them to sailors aboard ship,
or more likely to captains of vessels or to
agents Of European dealers in animals.
Sometimes on shipboard a rope is tied
around a monkey, and it is permitted with
in limited space to roam the deck. Csu-
ally, however, monkeys are shipped in slat-
ted boxes. Some monkeys are brought di-
rect to this port, but by far the greater
number go to the animal dealers In Eu-
rope. where the monkeys imported here are
bought
Occasionally small monkey is sold for
pet, but the number now sold for that
purpose is very limited. There is still some
demand for monkeys to be carried by or
gan grinders. Though the monkey has dis
appeared from the city it is still carried to
some extent by organ grinders in the coun-
try. But the great demand for monkeys
comes from the show people. The monkey
Is particularly sensitive to drafts and to
changes of temperature, to which it is often
subject with the constantly changing To-
cation Of circus menagerie. The average
life Of u monkey under such circumstances
Is about year. The menagerie practically
renews its stock of monkeys annually.
Under favorable conditions indoor mon
keys live in captivity for it may be- IL or

tivity.

A First Experience.

The famous Jack Mytton-famous in
sporting annals-among his numerou, es-
tates in various parts of the country o n
ed the lordship of Dinas Mowddy in WaleS
with a manor house in a sweet secluded
vale among the hills Driving homeward
one day when he was staying at this an
cient seat he overlook the parson of Mowd
dy, VINO was walking leisurely along
Jump up, - cried the squire, and the par
son clam bered willingly into the high dog
cart The road was narrow, and Mytton
drove IS recklessly as any son of Jehu.
"Indeed Mr. Mytton," cried the parson
nervously, Il hope you will be careful. l
never was upset in my life. " Never up
setP' quoth the squire Then, by lingo,
you shall be now!' And running wheel
up the bank he landed himself and the par
son in the opposite hedge. No bones were
broken, and the parson, besides enlarging
his experience, was comforted with a good
dinner and handsome souvenir of the
mishap.
Other versions of the story are current;
but, as this was told by the parsons sue
cessor in the cure, it is probably authentic.

CONCERT AND BALL.
Senator Hale Hose Company's First
Annual a Success.

SENATOR Hale Hose tOmpHEy'S First
Annual Success.
The first annual concert and ball of the
Senator Hale hose company, which took
place on New Years eve, was a success.
While it was the first annual" of this
company, as the former Eagle hook and
ladder company, the members had had
experience as entertainers which aided
them as Senat lrs in scoring the success
they did.
The stage was tastefuIy decorated,
with eVergreens, and large flags were
festooned above it. Across the front of
I he stage was the name of the company.
At the left OF the stage was the silk ban
ner presented to the company by Senator
Eugene Hale for making the best time in
the hose races at the county fair, and at
the right OF the stage was large picture
of he donor.
The concert which preceded the ball
WAS well received, all who took part be-
ing recalled. The duet by Misses Georgia
Hastings and Georgia Trip was finely
rendered, and their voices blended per-
fectly. EIlsworth's young banjoist, little
Helen Donovan, showed an ability re-
marka BILE in one so young.
Miss Leah Friends reading won merit
ed applause. The subject, fire rescue.
was appropriate.
Little Bertha joys singing, particularly
the child's song which she sang as an en-
core, was pleasing.
Daniel Hurd's clog dance caught the
popular fancy, and he WAS recalled twice
William Ii. Flint and George |. Grant in
their character songs were as popular as
ever. Three finely rendered selections by
Monaghan's orchestra completed the pro-
gramme.
About seventy couples took part in the
grand march, which was led by Chief En-
gineer Doyle of the fire department, with
Miss Margaret Monaghan. The Senate rs,
in their new uniforms, followed with their
ladies, making H fine appearance.
The supper, hich was served near mid
night, was not he least successful fea-
ture OF the affair. The housewives of
Ellsworth had responded literally to
the request for donations of food.
