dependence of any European power.
| Two treaties were made with France,
one on July 8, 1778, just after Bur-
goyne's surrender and the other treaty
of alliance.
Vice Chancellor Emery made reference
to Hamilton's letter to Washington ad-
vising the latter to accept a second term
as president. for upon him depended the
future of the nation. When France made
war against England, Washington be-
lieved according to the terms Of the al
lance, which called for aid only when
the other factor to the treaty was on the
defensive, that America should take a
position which really was equivalent to
neutrality. He took the responsibility
of issuing a proclamation that neither
of the belligerents should be given as
sistance.
The Vice Chancellor's paper recited
in detail the trouble caused by the
French minister who sought to enlist the
sympathies of Americans for his country,
A permanent phase of the foreign policy
of the message has been to steer clear of
permanent alliance with any nations of
the world. In 1898 Washington declared
all treaties with France as id.
Washington became commander in
chief of the army, and his record was
related in detail by the author of the
paper. The new American policy of
isolation was first advocated by Wash
ington. then by Adams and jefferson.
The country was not to depart from
this policy only when 1t was necessary
for the safety of our nation. 1t was
Washington's one idea to, as he said,
preserve the union" This was the
purpose and fundamental idea of the
hole address.
When Vice Chancellor Emery had
concluded reading the paper he re-
ceived an ovation At the suggestion
of the presiding officer every man rose
to his feet and by that action signified
approval of the able paper in which
there was not single false tone

THE MONKEYS OFF AMBER.
An Old Indian CITY Given Up To

An Old Indian city Given Up Ia

Mrs. Clara Erskine Clement describes In
ancient city of Amber. In India, which Is
inhabited only by few priests and thou-
sands OF monkeys, Elephants from the
stables OF the Maharajah OF Jeypore con-
veyed her party. The hill on which the
old city stands is surrounded by other
high hills, crowned with towers and ram
parts and covered with trees. The great
castle fortress stands out boldly. The old

teneiye block OF buildings. surrounded by
a COURTS the only place which Is inhabit-
ed. This Is a well populated and lively
quarter, since a tribe OF languor or hoo
noomaun monkeys have taken possession.
and dwell here in comfort and freedom.
The Hindus religiously refrain from nurt :

keys, having no fear, are monarcbs OF ill

The hccnoomaun, or laDguor, is tho an

bare, with a single tuft OF hair or the end.
The Hindus have a legend which explains
its very HACK face. II says that ages aso
Hoonoomaun, the king OF the monkeys,
went to assist Rama in the conquest OF
Ceylon. The demon-king of the island
had carried of Lita the wife Of Kama,
and he was determined TO rescue her. AS
they came near to the island, Hconoo-
maun easily leaped over the Straits. so
skillful Jumper was he. and. hnding
Lita, he was comforting her with the news
that her husband was approaching, when
Ravana. the demon king, appeared and
made Hoonoomaun prisoner. After set
ting fire TO the monkeys long tail. he gave
him his freedom, that he might return to
Rama. Hoonoomaun succeeded in blowing
out the FIRE al the end OF his tail. but IN
doing SO he blackened his face aud singed
his hair In q most unbecomng fashion.
The loss OF his beauty so saddened the
poor beast that Rama made all the mon
keys OF his kind kslamoukh, or black
faced, which they remain to this day.
