Certain plants are bohemian. nour-

Others. on the contrary. are pro-
foundly selfish or proeident-but for
themselves. without occupying them
selves with their neighbors. Such is.
above all. the case with the potato.
which. so long as 1t IS living. not only
takes she food and water necessary to
its daily nourishment. but makes
strong provision, storing like the

can sleep in peaceful hope Of renewed
spring. its capital IS put 10 one side

This classification Of plants into boz

Now that Prof. Garner Il instruct
ing as in the language Of monkeys, il
becomes a matter Of family interest,
as il were, to note any peculiarities
Of development Ia the animals from
which the evolutionisss maintain that
the human race descended or, more
properly speaking, ascended. II may
be eiassed with the study Of geneal-
'ogy. The author Of Studies in Cor
sica" touches on monkey music in
speaking Of the bagpipe
The weil-known boast OF patriotic
'scotchmen that the bagpipe is sacred
10 Scotland, and speaking a language
which only scotehmen feel. is as
slight in foundation as il is dubious
in import. In Syria. in Persia, in
.Afghanistan and India, in fact,
throughout the south of both Europe
and Asia, the baepipe is known and
is Enthusiastically cultivated.
'En India, If ] may believe some sol
'dier friends, the pipes attached to the
Highland regiments are far more
enjoyed By the native population than
the best brass bands Of other bat
talions.
Way, so much akin to our original
nature is the dulcet music OF the
simple bagpipe that it is the one sort
Of music which stirs the monkeys.
For. according 10 the testimony Of
the same officers. the Indian mon
keys, although aHmoyed by bands,
are SO powerfully fascinated by the
Scottish pibroch that when d detach-
ment of Highlauders Is marching TO
the pipes, and when the roadway ira
versed Is lined with trees. the mon
keys viii follow the troops with signs
OF delight, scramblinP after them
from tree 10 tree. From facts such
rs these one cannot doubt that the
bagpipe is one Of our oldest instru-

Dubuque. May 3l.-The Dubuque
Woodenware & Lumber Company plant
was completely destroyed by fire early
yesterday morning. The angry flames
swept thru the different buildings, and
left nothing but a charred mass of ruins
IN their wake.
The origin of the fire is unknown, but
II is presumed to have been caused by
spontaneous combustion. Night Watch
man Tony Weber says that the fire
started in the boiler room where the
shavings are kept. AT lao a. m. he had
been thru that part of the building, but
detected nothing that would lead him
to think that there was fire. Fifteen
minutes later the Waterman was in the
lumber yard winding his clock when he
looked up and saw the flames leaping
heavenward from the boiler room. He
hastily ran to the alarm box, but in his
excitement broke the key. Recourse
was then had TO the telephone. This
means of informing the fire department
is unsatisfactory and time was lost in
notifying all the companies. The loss is
about S15 0fCl
