The Toilet of Samoan Girls.

In spite of the simplicity of Samoan
attire, the natives spend a great deal
of time identifying themselves. Mel
Their sex is overburdened with clothes.
The common dress for both men and
women is the lava-lava a kind Of kilt
or piece of drapery wound about the
waist in manner whose adjustment
seems to foreigners nothing short of
miraculous.
The adults however, seems to have
no difficulty in keeping the lava-lava
in place, but the children are less eX-
pert and careful of theirs, and often
lose the scant scrap of cotton stuff
that serves as an outdoor costume.
Children of all ages indoors, and babies
in arms everywhere, wear no clothes
at all. This kind of garment--or dra-
perry, perhaps, would be better word
for it's In slightly varied form, COM

the Malaysian peninsula wear it loose

manner of the well known infantile ac-
cessory.

INTELLIGENT MONKEYS.
Instances of Their Using Tools to Do
What They Want

Instances of Their Using Tools to Do
What They Want.
Some of the higher animals, on occa-
sions, make as intelligent use of tools
as men would under similar or like cir
cumstances, says a writer in the Scien-
titic American. A Capuchin monkey,
which / owned for several years. was
given some walnuts He tried to crack
the nuts with his teeth, but they proved
to be too hard. He then seized a stone
which happened to be lying near on the
pavement and, holding the nut with one
paw. he brought the stone down on 1t
with the other, thus effectually laying
bare the longed-for kernels.
Some monkeys are fully aware OF the
properties of the lever and Of he ad-
vantage of leverage. In 1882 l saw a
monkey at the fair grounds in st. Louis,
Mo-, which would pry apart the bars
of his cage with a stick. When | gave
him my cane he would examine it care
fully, as if mentally testing it's
strength; he would then place it be-
tween the bars at just the right spot
and swing back on it with all his might.
When he had sprung the bars apart he
would squeeze through and go on a
prowl." Reusger, the German biolo-
gist and naturalist, describes a monkey
which would employ a stick wherewith
to pry up the lid of a chest which was
too heavy for the animal to raise other
wise"
In 1889 there was on exhibition in
New York very large and intelligent
hog-nose monkey. This animal was
confined by itself. though there was a
door between it's cage md the one next
to it. This door could be easily opened
by the monkey, but a spring governed
it in such a manner that 1t would close
unless held open. The hog-nose was q
sociable individual and was very fond
of visiting its neighbors. 1t could not
bear. however, having the door closed
on ii, thus shutting it out from its
own particular domicile, so it evolved
the ingenious trick of checking the door
with a pan whenever it went calling. I
would open the door, then place the par
in such a position that ii could moi
swing TO.

The Princes Defence.

Prince Louis EsterhaZy, military at
tache of the Austrian embassy at Lon
don, was recently travelling alone on
an English railway when an elegantly
dressed woman entered the carriage.
Presently she dropped her handker-
chief and employed other expedients
to start a conversation, but without
avail, for the prince TRANQUILITY smoked
his cigar and took no notice of her.
At last, as the train approached a sta
ton. the woman suddenly tore her
hat from her head, disheveled her hair,
and. as the train came to standstill,
nut her head out of the window and
shrieked for assistance, The railroad
officials hurried to the scene, and to
them the woman asserted that she had
been terribly insulted by the prince.
The prince did not stir from his seat,
hut continued TRANQUILITY smoking his
cigar. and the stationmaster exclaim-
ed: What have you got to say to the
charger" without the slightest ap-
nearance of concern the prince, who
was seated in the further corner OF the
carriage, replied: "only this" and with
that he pointed to the cigar which
! showed a beautiful gray ash consider
! ably over an inch in length. The sta
tion-master was wise in his generation,
and on perceiving the ash in the
princes cigar, he touched his hat, said
quietly. That's all right, sir" and ar
! rested the woman instead.-Argonaut.

Two travelling men. Charles Eoss and

a cock and bull story Monday morning
Of their having been held up on Eighth
street bridge while on their way to their
hotel. One of them, Ross, had one of his
hands scratched and he reported these
marks as being dagger thrusts. Judgirg
from their report they were as valiant as

They tackled the robbers as valorous
men would. The robbers used daggere,
The dagger, it must be understood is the
weapon of the professional ssassin and
these Knights OF the Grip would have no
encounter with ordinary footpads. The
robbers were put to T. ight, daggers and
all Ross had few scratches on the
palm OF bis hand caused evidently by
falling on some ragged SD rFaoe. These
were the only wounds inflicted by the
daring robbers who selected as an am
bush the center OF bridge lighted up by
electricity, where there are two bridge
tenders, one of whom is generally on the
watch, and the most exposed place in the
city. A policeman saw them pass AT
about three in the morning He was not
far from Eighth street bridge and he
watched them cross. But no sound of
combat came to his ears.
