now MONKEYS ARE CAUGHT.
One of the Peculiar Methods Adopte"
by the Natives.

by the Nhtt'cs.
In capturing monkeys It is said that
their curiosity is the thing that makes
them an easy prey Nearly all OF the
monkeys that we see in this country
come from Gornoma, little village
situated a short distance from the PAN
anna railroad. The inhabitants OF TINS
district are mostly native negroes, LOT
few white men could bear the climate.
The whole region is marshy, ana COW
cred with tropical vegetation. At night
there arises a thick vapor laden with
fever, which hangs over the woods ike
a cloud. This region of woods Is the
paradise of monkeys. They travel in
troops, led by an older monkey. When
the people receive information that the
travelling monkey troops are near
the village they go to the woods in
crowds to chase them. Their plan Is
very simple. They cut hole in
cocoanut large enough for monkeys
paw to enter. The nut is then hol-
lowed out and n piece Of sugar is plac-
ed in 1t. A piece of string is then fas-
IeNeu 10 IL, anu IL - pldSSu III the iVe'e
of the approaching monkeys. 1t is well
known that monkeys are very inquisl-
tive. When they see the cocoanut in
the grass they hurry to examine 1t. IL
does not take them long to find out
that the inner part contains piece
Of sugar. One of the boldest and greed
lest sticks a paw into the nut TO get
the sugar. and grasps it as tightly as
he can. But his fist is so large that
he cannot draw it out of the hole again,
with the sugar, to which he holds fast,
cost what it may. The natives now
pull the string until nut and monkey
arrive in the vicinity OF their ambus-
cade. In the meantime the other mon
keys wonder what is the matter with
their comrade. They hurry to see
where he is being pulled to, with his
paw in the cocoanut. They crowd
around him, chattering and gesticulat-
ing, and the natives, who have large
net ready, cast it over them, and be
fore they know II all are prisoners.
They are sold to the employees OF the
Panama railroad. and reach North
American markets through commercial
dealers. p. W. II.

FLOWER-VIEWi IN JAPAN.
4 National Custom to Make Family EI-
cursions In Blossom Time.

1t is one OF the national customs in
ties OF two or three families, TO view
the Towering trees and plants in their
season. The Japanese love all flow
ers, but prefer those to which they
look up-the flowers of trees. They
visit the plum blossoms in February
or early March; the cherry, especially
beloved, in April: the lotus in July
azaleas during the summer: chrysan-
themums in the autumn, and camellias
in December. In the pleasure grounds
connected with every temple there are
always magnificent collections OF flow
ers. An expedition especially to see
the flowers is called a hanami, or flow
er'view. The bank of the Sumida riv-
er, which crosses the city OF Toxic,
is covered with cherry trees. These
give pleasant shade, and the spot is
a fayorite promenade for the citizens
all the year round, but in time OF
cherry bloom" the crowds that throng
the avenue are larger than ever. 1t is
crowded on moonlight nights, and also
when the snow lies freshly fallen. Be
ing fully alive TO the beauty OF their
country, wherever there is point
from which picturesque view may
be obtained, the japanese will build
pavilion, or tea house, or some
similar place of repose, from which the
eyes may feast on the lovely land
scape. IN the family picnics or ex-
cursions, which are frequent, some
place Of beautiful situation from which
there is a good view either of land
or sea, is always selected. These ex-
petitions are not discontinued even
when the cold of winter comes. Snow
scenes are greatly enjoyed, and when
the freshly-fallen snow is lying on the
ground, numerous parties are seen at
points commanding a fine view. The
children are never excluded, but ac-
company their elders On all such oc-
caslons.-St. Nicholas.
