ABDUCTED BY 0RANG- 0UTANG
This Young Borean, Who Was Taken
n Prisoner, Was treated
With KfndneaH.

Numerous stories have been told Of per-
sons being abducted by o~rang-outaugs.
carried to their retreats and treated with
the utmost politeness. In 1864 a young
Bornean was missing and his friends con-
cluded to ferret out the mystery Well
armed. they started to search through the
jungles. and on the fifth day discovered
on the bank of the Sakarang river the
clothes and sword of their friend. Suddenly
they heard a voice. and following the
sound, discovered the missing fellow high
up in a tree with an orang-ou-tang by his
side. A rifle shot brought the huge animal
to the ground. when the happy man de-
scended and told of his strange adventure.
He had been out hunting and had gone to
the river to battle. Upon returning he was
seized by the arms by the animal and was
compelled to follow it. They arrived at the
foot of a certain tree. where the youth
made a hasty but Involuntary ascent to
the top. where he found himself a prisoner
in comfortable lodging. Five days he re-
manned. his weird hostess graciously sup
! plying him every day with fruits and vege-
tables and bringing water in a cocoanut
shell.
Investigation has proved that such facts
are ~indisputable. The conviction is also
shared by st. John, the author of a book on
BOrnean travels.

Dry Goods.

New York, Feb. 2G.-The week in dry goods has
been satisfactory in the main. with a fairly we'll
sustained business reported at first hands. With
jobbers there has been a widening OF demand mark
ing the visits Of buyers to the local market, which
has bettered the general situation to no mean de-
gree. There is still a very fair showing OF buyers
at second hand in the market. In the primary mar
ket the price remains firm. Cottons are still in
steady request. Print cloths show poor results for
the week. The quotation is still 2 3-l6c for extras.
Printed cottons and wash goods are still firm and in
fairly active request.
