store Of W. F. Drummer & Co. yester-
day afternoon ring-tailed Chinese
monkey, one OF the large variety, broke
out of his cage and started on a career
of murder and pillage. He killed two
canaries and pulled the tail feathers
from half dozen parrots. When it
came to plundering, he found the draw
ers filed with packages of bird seed.
Not wanting it himself. he took to
throwing them at the parrots. 1t was
while this was going on that the police
attracted by a roaring crowd of men
and boys in front of the place came and
tried to get in,
1t was finally decided to send for the
proprietor. When he arrived the mon
key had reached the desk and was
tearing up accounts and splashing ink
On the entrance of Drummer the riotel
fled to one Of the high shelves. The
monkey had released number OF
smaller monkeys and to these the bird
man appealed for help. AT once they
started in pursuit and after an excit-
ing chase the big monkey was over
taken and pulled to the floor by the lit
tie Fellows. The bird store looked as II
lit had been thru cyclone. The dam.

majority. as elsewhere. They are of less
stature than the men I'm proportion and
are I'm other respects inferior to them,
perhaps from their marrying too young
