From the Louisville Courier Journal.
The unusual spectacle of an intoxicated
monkey. gaudily dressed in red and gold.
Of children almost resulted in a tragedy on
Chestnut street the other morning.
The monkey was more intelligent than
most of his race. He wasn't young, and
his queer behavior could not be attributed
to his inexperience. OF course, he was the
property of an organ grinder. Ur beyond
list street the musician stopped and
ground out I'D Leave My Ha opy Home
for YOU" always a favorite with the neigh
borhood students. Then followed another
selection and another. until the Italian had
exhausted his repertoire. The monkey,
dressed in his red velvet. with gilt beads
and braid, executed his gyrations. and
after each number made the rounds, cap
in hand.
At a second-story window the little beast
saw a young man standing. The stranger
beckoned and the monkey quickly climbed
to him. The window was opened, and the
little climber disappeared within. Five
minutes later he climbed down the light
ming rod. After that the whole monkey
family would have been scandalized could
they have witnessed his actions. For q
block he was unruly. Then he began to
separate himself from the money which he
had collected. Nickels flew in every direc-
ton. Some were aimed at the children,
who scrambled for the change. The Italian
was white with rage. In his foreign lingo
he made dire threats, and all against the
monkey.
But the animal kept on jabbering. 1t
wasn't his fault that he was drunk. When
he went to that second-story window the
young man offered him whisky-soaked
bread, and the animal ate heartily.

desired to use American machinery. The
grinding of wheat and the cleaning of cot
ton are now done in the most primitive
fashion. There is an abundance of water
power for milling purposes. and the consul
suggests that American manufacturers of
machinery send catalogues with descriptive
price lists. Attention should be directed
more particularly. he says, to the simpler
mechanical devices which can be operated
by low-grade workmen. and can be rep aired
easily, for the country in the consular dis-

THE BORROWING HABIT.
1t Has Lessened in the Executive De.
DartmentS.

THE borrowing habit, like other prac-
tices in the executive departments in
Washington, has undergone considerable
change in recent years." said the chief Of
a division THE observance of the civil
service rules has had r,uch to do with it.,
though the relation between civil service
rules and borrowing money may not be ap-
parent at first thought.
"Under the old regime, when an en-
ploye's place depended entirely upon in
fuence, men knew that their retention was
a matter Of favor. and that the duration
of their service was decidedly uncertain.
In all large bodies of people there are
many people who are careless liz their
money settlements. Such a condition of
employment encouraged this class not only
to borrow from their fellow clerks, but to
move away and forget to pay their trades
mems bills. They felt that at best they
might not hold on Ter more than four
years, and perhaps not longer than one
term Of Congress, should their influence

and age of money-makers. These
are times of great commercial ex-
pansion. All the great minds of
the race sre engaged in money ma

man, poet, philosopher or preacher
left. There are as great intellects
as ever in the world but they are
turned in other directions. They
are engaged in building up dazzling
fortunes and gathering vast estates.
In the evolution of the race perhaps
this is we'll For some Of our rich
men are learning the true use of
money. AS they learn that wealth
is a sacred trust to be wisely held
and judiciously used for the en-
lightenment and advancement of
their less fortunate fellows they

God for our Carnegies and Rookie

the children a chance. We are in
danger of overriding the matter of
Kindergarten methods and running

to this question when asked about
our churches? The trend in the
churches seems to me TO be tow

ready upon us. But if while hold
