MONKEYS IN INSA.
Are Unusually Ludicrous Counterfeit.
of Their Human Cou.ir.


of Their Human Cousins.
when l was travelling In Nortberu
india" said a gentleman who had re-
Gently completed journey around the
world, Il was constantly impressed
with the almost human ways OF the
monkeys there. You see they are never
molested, which is also true of the
birds, and they are as tame and lmpu-
dent as spoiled children.
Il remember that one morning while
we were sitting at breakfast on the
veranda of our hotel suddenly we heard
the noisiest chattering, and down the
main street Of the town came a crowd
of long-tailed monkeys, running a race
evidently. They shrieked and chartered
at every leap, trlpped each other up,
pulled each others tails and seemed to
be having n generally hilarious time.
While we left the table to watch their
antics some Indian crows that had been
solemnly lined up on the veranda rail
watching us eat, made dash for the
food and had quite fight with the ma
tive servant before they were finally
driven away.
But the monkeys of India are surely
the most irresponsible people In the
world" continued the traveller, AT call
them people because they are such lu.
dicrous counterfeits OF human beings.
In many of the old temples there are
monkey settlements. | remember one
In particular which was sacred to the
simians. There seemed to be thou
sands of the creatures, and l was told
that 5000 had recently been taken to
the woods to get rid of them. But in
this temple | saw little simian mothers
nesting and rocking their babies In
their arms for all the world like
Christian mother. l ventured to pick
up one of the infants that was running
about, and instantly the baby gave a
typical infantile squeal and the excited
mother came to me, chattering angrily.
| put the infant down, and the mother,
her eyes still blazing with anger, car.
ried the little one to corner and pet
ted and rocked 1t, frequently turning
to give me a scornful look.
ut Is not uncommon for the monkeys
in the trees to reach down and seize the
travellers hat as he passes,
Perhaps the most remarkable sight
In connection with the monkeys In In
dia l witnessed early one morning. We
were riding III the highway and by q
vacant field. Suddenly from the neigh.
boring forest a troop of monkeys en-
tered the field and began a regular May
dance, taking hold of hands and form
ing large circle, then dancing round
and round and chattering gleefully."

All preparations for the Spokane
Industrial Exposition, which opens on
the second of October, are proceeding
splendidly, and the indications are the
tair and exposition this year will be
much better than ever before. This
VIII not only be true of the whole show.
but 1t will be true of almost every
separate department. The entertain
ment features from the Royal Marine
Band of Italy down to Little Nero, the
four-year-old acrobat, are of the high
est order and never before have been
equalled at the fall fruit fairs in Spo-
kane.
Last year the fruit exhibits all were
accommodated in one tent, 50x12S. This
year larger tent was set aside for
these exhibits, but it has been found
that it is far too small and that it will
be necessary to build another the same
size as the first. The fruit displays
therefore will fill two large tents, each
of which is 60X150 feet in size. An
other tent, 50x12S feet, will be filled
with garden truck, grains and grasses.
Therefore, instead of four large tents,
as last year, this time there will be
five and there are indications that they
will be crowded more than they were
a year ago.
The opening day programme is quite
elaborate and will be fine. A big pa
rade will precede the opening of the
doors. The band will lead, playing a
march written by Spokane young
lady. Following the band will come
the exposition officials in carriages and
next the chief parsonage of all. Miss
Lulu Kirby of Peck, Idaho Goddess of
Plenty. She will be attended by two
maids of honor, who will ride with her
in the carriage upon which will be a
footman and a driver. She will also
have two outrider escorts. Her car
riage is the same one which was pre-
scented to President Lincoln by the
business men of New York when he
was inaugurated the second time. 1t
is the same in which he road to Ford's
theater and it is the same one in which
he was driven home after that awful
tragedy. After the Goddess will come
the fire department, civic societies, the
national guard, the Gonzaga cadets and
the United States cavalry from Fort
Wright. After these will come numer-
Gus merchants floats.
But one of the best parts of the en-
tire exposition will come on this first
day and can not we'll be missed If a
person wishes to enjoy something
grand. 1t is the chorus of 1000 school
boys and girls who will sing several
choruses. All remember the singing
of the 600 children last year. DR.. Her.
itage again will drill them.

Cologne, Sept 25.-The Kolinische lei.
tung publishes an inspired telegram from
Berlin in which the Washington govern.
ment's reply to the German note is char
acterized as manifesto to assist the Chi.
nese government to accept the proposals
with regard to the punishment of the
leaders in the Chinese trouble.
The telegram points out that, though
the American reply shows an indulgent
disposition, it must not be deduced there
from that Washington thinks the United
States trade and missionary interests re-
quire less careful protection than those
of the other powers, but that the United
States government is compelled to be in
dulgent owing to the unfavorable effect
upon the situation in the Philippines
caused by the transfer of troops from
those islands to China. AS a matter of
fact, the telegram adds, the vigorous and
exemplary punishment Of the guilty coun-
sellers of the Chinese court will be in ac-
cordance with the interests of both Amer
lean trade and missionaries.
For a settlement between the powers
and China, it makes no difference, how
ever, asserts the telegram, whether Amer
lea co-operates any further or not. Forces
sufficient for all emergencies will remain
to secure the expiation demanded by the
civilized world.
