a sIMIAN ON Ta4 RAMPAGE
Breaks Loose in Host0n and Causes
No End Of Trouble.
(From the Boston CIobe-l

Frank Prior, the punch and judy man
in a Court Street museum, bought an Afri-
can monkey yesterday afternoon, intend
ing 10 take it hcme after The show closed
last night. During the afternoon ne
played with his new acquisition, and the
two became fast friends. Just before the
evening performance began he took the
monkey, to which he had attached a
! string. into a basement poolroom next
door on Howard Street, where he tied
him in back Office. He fastened the
rope, as he supposed, securely TO the han
die Of safe door. and left him.
Nothing more was thought of the mon
key until about O'Clock. when the simian
made his appearance in the poolroom. To
the CONSERVATION of the habitues, he
jumped up on table, and catching one
of the ivory balls, SHE'D it at one of the
players. He then made his escape
through the door and out on 10 Howard
Street. 1t took him only a moment to
make a mental survey of the situation
and not liking the crowd of people pass
ing, he ran across the street and into the
doorway of a restaurant.
The restaurant was comfortably filled
with people The monkey jumped up on
the lunch counter, and there was much ex-
citement among the guests. but more
among the women walters.
At This junCture the monkey caught
sight of a cat sound asleep near the
kitchen entrance and proceeded to investi-
gate. lie pounced upon the cat, and the
latter with one bound, cleared the parti-
tion into the cutlery. The monkey darted
after the cat, and the next instant both
were mixed up in a rough-and- tumble
fight amid the crockery and glassware.
/ The cat was getting the worst of it, so,
with fur standing on end, made its es-
cape through the door into the street.
The monkey followed just in time TO
come in contact with an iceman, much to
the Iatters surprise The man was filling
the ice chest at the time, but dropped the
cake of ice he was carrying and endeayor-
ed to catch the monkey with his tongs.
In this he failed. and the monkey run
ming past him. nearly upset a young wo-
man who was serving a customer with a
bowl Of custard This so frightened the
waiter that she tainted, spilling the Gus
tard over her dress. The other women
behind the counter fed, and the monkey
disappeared in the confines of the kitchen,
among the mass of broken china and
glassware.
Mr.. Prior, who had been notified OF his
monkeys antics, went to nearby hotel
and secured a blanket, and with the as
sistance of some OF the employees of the
place, finally secured his charge.
The monkey. it was found, had devas-
tated the Office of the poolroom, throw
ing everything movable around, and tear
ing up letters and papers of every de-
scription that had been left in the desk.

lieve from 10, 600 to 20, 900 for a month.

the trouble to go 70 the dock and see the
quality of food and material which we put

have been more pleased. Another i'm

THE BENEFIT MATINEES.
Large Crowds OF Patrons in Attend
ance at the Theatres

The Galveston Day matinee benefits are
a success. and 4 large sum of money will
be realized with which to aid the storm
victims of Texas. When the doors of the
theatres opened this afternoon streams of
people steadily passed III, practically all
the seats in all the theatres at which

All the clerks of the executive d.
partments who desired 10 a-tend the
Galveston benefits this afternoon were
given leave to do so. Acting Pos muster
General ShauenbeTger. after consulting

ing that it would establish a dang rus
precedent to give fiat leave OF ats nee
10 clerks for such a purpose.
1t was agreed that there would be no
limit to the calls upon the department for
vacations OF that sort should such prece-
dent be once set. However, in order to
give all the employees of the department
an opportunity to attend the matinees,
Mr.. Shallenberger decided on giving two
hours leave this afternoon to all those
employees who desired it in order to help
the fund.
1t was not necessary 10 show theatre
tickets in order to get the leave of ab-
sence. The time thus taken will be
charged against each employe enjoying il,

cation of thirty days. Should the en-
ployes desire TO make it up by working
overtime during the year they will be az
liberty to do so. 1t viii not be necessary
TO put in all of the two hours at one time.
1t can be made up in such quarter hour
lots as the employe desires.
No arrangement was made at the Treas
ury Department for giving an opportunity
to employees to attend he Galveston bene-
fl TaaJineeS.
Contributions of cash for the Galveston

still great need for more money as stated
by Miss Clara Barton in a telegram re-
ceived by Commissioner Ross yesterday in
which she said that the greatest need was
for surgical supplies and delicacies for the

THEORIES ABOUT FOOD.

We hear much nowadays about health
foods and hygienic living, about yegeta-
rianism, and many other faGs along the
same line.
Restaurants may be found in the larger
cities where no meat, pastry, or coffee is
served and the food crank is in his glory,
and arguments and theories galore ad
Vanced 10 prove that meat was never in
tended for human stomachs and almost
make US believe that our sturdy ancestors
who lived four score years in robust health
on roast beef, pork. and mutton must have
been grossly ignorant Of the laws of health.
Our fOrefathers had other things to do
than formulate theories about the food they
ate. A warm welcome was extended to
any kind from bacon to aeorns.
healthy appetite and common sense
are excellent guides 10 follow in matters
of diet and mixed diet of grains, fruits,
and meats is undoubtedly the best.
AS compared with grains and vegetables,
meat furnishes the most nutriment in a
highly concentrated form and is digested
and is assimilated more quickly than yege-
tables and grains
DR.. Julius Remmson on this subject says:
Nervous persons, people run down in
health and of low vitality, should eat meat
and plenty Of it. If the digestion is too
feeble at first it may be easily corrected
=
Tablets after each meal Two of these ex-
eellent tablets taken after dinner will di-
sest several thousand grains of meat. eggs
and other animal food in three hours and
no matter how weak the stomach may be
no trouble will be experienced If a regular
practice is made of using Stuart's Dyspep-
sia Tablets, because they supply the pep
sin and diastase necessary to perfect di-
gestion, and every form of indigestion will
be overcome by their use

der the head of nervous dyspeptfcs should
eat plenty OF meat and ensure its proper
digestion by the daily use of a-safe. harm
less digestive medicine like Stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets. composed of the natural
digestive principles, pepsin, diastase fruit
acids, and salts, which actually perform
the work Of digestion. Cheap cathartic
medicines, masquerading rG.aer the name
or dyspepsia cures, are useless for Indi-
eestion, as they have absolutely no effect
upon the actual digestion of food
Dyspepsia in all its many forms is sim
ply failure Of the stomach to digest food
and the sensible way to solve the riddle
and cure the dyspepsia is TO make daily
