THE missing LINK" IN JAVA.
Interesting Notes About a Monkey man
or Man Monkey in Captivity.

Prof. Ernst Haeckcls latest publication
contains some curious information about
the human monkey OF Java, from which
the London Standards Berlin correspondent
selects the following: Tho most interest
ing specimen was a young glbbon, which
Herr ilaeckel had IN opportunity of
watching for several mouths at his own
house ut BuitenzOrg, in Java. The spec
les of gibbon to which this animal belongs
IL found only in Java, It's scientific name
being iIylobates Leuciscus. BY the ma
tivcs it is called Ca, on account of the
characteristic sounds it uttcrs. The little
animal. when standing erect. is scarcely
taller than a child of six %ears. The head
is comparatively small. the waist slender
the legs short, and the arms much longer.
The face of the Is more human than
that of the orang. Herr flaeckel says:
Its physiognomy reminded me of the
manager of an insovent rank pondering.

the crash. The distrust OF the oa toward
all white Europeans was very noticeable;
hut on the other hand, he formed an in
innate friendship with the brown Malays
of our household, and especially the small
children. He never crawed on all fours.
When he was tired with running he

child, 'Hute, huite, huite,' sound alto
gether different from the Ca. GA, GA
which he used to express various emo
lions. He uttered a third and shrllcr
sound when he was suddenly frightened.
The speech of these human monkeys has
not many different sounds but those Civ
en- are modulated. and altered in tone
strength. and number of repetitions The
monkey also uses many gestures. motions
with the hands. and grimaccS, in such an
expressive manner that the careful OH
server can detect different wishes and
various emotions.

wine, He grasped the cup very skillfully
with both hands and drank like a chili.
He peeled bananas and oranges just as w"
are accustomed to do. Holding the fruit
with the left hand. he removed the rind
quite sldllfully with the right, and bit of
one piece after the other. Most MalayS
do not look upon the gihbon and the
orangoutang as animals. The former they
believe to be bcwitched men, the latter
criminals who, as a punishment, wer"
changed into monkeys. Others, again
they think are men in the course of me-
tempsychosis."

A WORD TO HUSBANDS.
Suggestions That May Help to Make the
Home Happy.

!
In the first place give your wife entire
confidence-have no secrets from her, says
an exchange.
| If you have courted any other girl and
been Tilted tell her all about it. If you
have loved another and cooled toward
her and broken the enga cement, tell your
wife. Burn all the old letters, and photo
graphs, and locks of hair, and dried roses,
and leave nothing for her to discover some
day when she may be rummaging in old
Gcsks or trunks for amusement.
Half the heroines in novels are made
wretched by some secret their husbands
have kept from them; and. indeed, II 1t

ness between husband and wife fear

modern books would be done up in the

II a man selects IL woman out of all the
world of women for Il wife, she should be
worthy to share his confidence. Young
man. there should be no earthly interest
so near your heart as the happiness and
welfare of her who bears your children,
who keeps your homo. who wears your
name, and yields those rights and privl-
eyes to which the marriage covenant has
entitled you.

TRIBUTE OF THE SEA-.
The Awful Record of Lives and Vessels
Lost Every Year.

Lloyds annual return of vessels lost and
condemned shows in striking form the
prodigious tribute that is claimed every
year by the sea, says the London Daily
News. The loss of life is not given, but
no less than 702 vessels of upward OF II
hundred tons were reported last year as
abandoned, burned, missing, in collision,
wrecked or foundered. 70 this vanished
fleet must be added 146 vessels which were
broken up or condemned. The total tom
mage lost at sea is upward of half a mil
lion-the equivalent of 800 craft of II
thousand tons apiece. No wonder the
underwriters are busy.
England can congratulate herself on
holding the front rank in point of So
curitN for, while its actual losses are tn"
heaviest the number of wrecks relative
TO the tonnage atloat are smaller than
that of any of the hrSt-cass maritime
powers. To be strictly accurate the col
onieS came ont fraction better than the
mother country. Germany comes next,
and Norway, with its big fleet of the cast
off vessels of other nations, shows tn"
highest pecentagc of losses, 639, as com
pared with $50 for England. NorwaY's
fleet of floating collins has grown to tc

Of the military parade on the occasion of
the unveiling Of the Logan equestrian
statue in this city on the 9th proximo. He
is now in this city arranging for the mill

great demand for troops in the Philippines
has practically depleted the army posts in
this immediate vicinity, SO that now there
is but one battery of artillery on duty at
the national capital. If more regular troops
are needed for the Logan ceremonies they
will have to be brought from other cities

organized at Fort Myer. but the men are
all raw recruits. and are hardly available
for public parade. 1t is believed how
ever, that creditable demonstration can
be made by the participation Of the Marine
Corps. the Grand Army OF the Republic and
the National Guard Of the IDistrict. 1t is
expected that these organizations will be
