TRICKS OF MONKEY TRAINER.
Chicago Dealer i'm the Animals Tells How His ,Imitators Come
 to Grief.

"I had couple of imitators last fall," said Chicagoan who made a business of furnishing monkey aero- nauts for country fairs and street shows, reports the Chronicle, "but they came to grief, and as result the monkey market is pretty stiff. These fellows lessened the visible supply by considerable number of the simians, who lost their lives by dropping from perilous height. The secret of my business is the naturalness with which the monkey hangs to the tra- oeze-bar of the balloon or parachute attached to it.
 Last summer I explained that the trick was easy, that the monkey would never let go nut in his hand and as long as he gripped it with the hand thrust through a manacle attached to the bar he maintained an acrobatic attitude. I said the other arm was held down by bandage and the monk could not reach the nut with his other hand. A few slick fellows got some monkeys and started in opposi- tion."
 "Why should not the trick work for them?' inquired listener.
 "They forgot that the monks feet are as serviceable as his hands, and as I had not enlightened anyone on the care of that part of the simian' s anatomy they lost some high-priced animals"
