 was about as acute as they make them
 He was the inventor of an ingenious and smooth plan of turning the con- scription law to profitable account by enabling recruits to escape military old and clumsy methods, such as muti- lation or the administration of drugs which affect, temporarily, the action of the heart, but simply made it his business to know the depots where the army surgeons were most exacting, in the matter of physical condition, and most likely to attach importance to slight physical defects. For this spec ial information ne was able to get con- siderable sums without, apparently, doing anything to put him within the reach of the law. He was arrested nevertheless. and brought to trial on the charge of intent to procure fraud ulent exemption, a rather vague of- fence. It served it's purpose how ever. Any number of witnesses tes- tified to having paid him money, the usual amount being about S750, and he was promptly convicted. His accum- uiations must have been large, for he

A German who was committed to Halloway prison has made a record, he being the only prisoner who ever es- capped from that strong place. He was brought to Halloway with orders that a careful watch be kept on him. He made his escape through an eighteen inch ventilator in the top of his cell. He wrenched off the iron cover with his hand, and was obliged to take off all his clothes in order to squeeze him self through the aperture. From the ventilator he lowered himself to the ground with rope made from his bed clothes. Even then he was not free The prison yard is surrounded by a wall some twenty five or thirty feet AisA. He sealed this, however, with the aid of some blanks, and made good his escape, nor had he. according to the last report, been found. Possibly the most wonderful part of all this is carry out all his plans. The warder of the prison made hourly visits to his cell, and on one found the prisoner ly- ing evidently asleep, while an hour later the cell was empty, and the prisoner was already outside of the limits of the prison yard.

An interesting question is raised by writer in Cassells Little Folks for May. "Can Animals Cry?" he asks. Lady Burton says he has seen horses in the Syrian desert cry from thirst, a mule cry from the pain of an injured foot and camels shed tears in streams. A COW, sold by it's mistress who had tended 1t from birth, wept pitifully A young soko ape used to cry from vexa- lion if Livingstone didn't nurse it in his arms when it asked him to. Wound ed apes have died crying, and apes have wept over their young ones slain by hunters. A chimpanzee trained to car ny water jugs broke one, and fell a-cry- ing, which proved sorrow, though it wouldn't mend the jug. Rats, discover ing young one drowned. have been moved ito tears of grief. A giraff, which a huntsmans rifle had injured began to cry. Sea-lions weep for the loss of their young. Gordon Cumming observed tears trckling from the eyes of a dying elephant. And even an orang-outang, when deprived of its mango, was so vexed that it took to crying There can be little doubt, there- fore, that animals do weep from grief, or pain, or annoyance.
