MONKEY SAVES HIS MASTER.
Ape Rolls Keeper Over and Over, Ex-
 tinguishing Burning Clothes.

From the New York Sun.
 A six-foot ehimpanzee saved one of his keepers from heinz burned to death in fire at the monkey house in the geological park in the Bronx on Sunday. Curator Ditmars says so.
 Some mischievous person caused the fire by throwing a match into the chim- panzee's cage, setting it's bedding of hay and straw ablaze. The keeper tried to rescue the ape. His clothes caught fire and the animal rolled him over and over on the floor till the blaze was ex- tinguished. The chimpanzee himself was badly burned and his head and feet are now wrapped in bandages.
 There were 500 persons In the monkey house when the bedding blazed up. Two policemen closed the door at each end of the building with the idea of catching the thrower of the match. The police men did not succeed. The only result was to throw the crowd into a panic.
 Soko is the champanzee's name, and Curator Ditmars vouches for it that he is an animal of many accomplishments. being an acrobat and contortionist and a boxer of no mean ability as well. The curator himself has been giving Soko boxing 1essions and MT. itmars says the animal is becoming so proficient that
  public exhibition.
 But that is nothing. When the wicked spectator set Sokos bed afire about o'clock on Sunday afternoon the ape showed more intelligence even than IS required in a public boxing exhibition.
 Keeper Miles ran into Soko's cage while Keeper Pierce ran for the fire hose Miles had only been in the cage a second be- fore his clothes caught fire. Till then Soko, MT. Ditmar says, had crouched In a corner of the cage. apparently in great horror But when he saw his keepers clothes afire he rushed over, grabbed Miles, hugGcd him close and then threw him on the floor. He pushed Miles lout of reach of the flames and kept rolling him oyer until he had smothered the fire
 While this was going on Keeper Pierce had got the hose out and was playing stream on the burning bedding. He had the fire out in a minute, but not before Solxo's nose and face and feet had been burned.
 Three keepers carried Soko out of the cage and to the hospital ward. J. IL. Blair, the veterinary surgeon, was called and dressed Soko's wounds. Then me ape was dandaged up and put to bed.
 Sol1o is 4 years old and healthy, ana Curator Ditmars says 1t won't be long before the ape Is around and as spry as ever. The fire in his cage caused great uproar among the other monkeys. They chattered and screeched for an hour ana one big baboon, named Abdullah, eouldnt be quiet

NEW SCHEME FOR
 NAVAL EDUCATION
UNDER THE NEW SYSTEM TRAIN ING OF OFFICERS IS sIMPLIFIED AND UNlFIED-EARL OF sEL- BORNE ISSUES ARTICLE.

London, December 25.-Offieial papers nave been issued giving full details of the new scheme for naval education un- der which the training of officers is to se unified and simplifed by the adoption of single system for the training of cadets for all three branches of the ser viee-executive, engineers and marines.
 The Earl of Selborne, first lord of the admiralty, in an article in which he ar gues that modern development of the navy require a change in the personnel, says:
 In the old days it sufficed if naval officer was a seaman; now he must be seaman, a soldier, an engineer and man of science as well. Today more knowl- edge and study Is needed than in the past and the highest type of the naval officer is added to force of character. The dan ger within the navy itself Is lest in sufficient importance should be attached to the results of study and lest the value of what is called practical character should be placed higher than 1t deserves. The scheme now confirms the previous forecast. It will become operative next July. For the first seven years all cadets will receive identical training in every branch of the service, special attention being given to scientific study. Thence forward, from the age of 20, the cadets will be drafted into the different branches and will begin to speculate. The scheme enables speedier promotion provides for revised rates of pay at the disappearance of engineers, disabilities and promotion to the rank of commander by selection"
 While the newspapers this morning gem erally commend the scheme as cour- ageous attempt in the direction of a very necessary reform, it is expected that 1t will meet with considerable opposition. Its political defect as pointed out in edi- torial articles this morning is that ens- neers and marine officers will still be de- barred from attaining flag rank, and all cadets. therefore. will want to enter the executive branch. The Standard says:
 We do not blame the admiralty for hesitating to follow the example of the United States, in whose navy executive and engineer officers have been com bined with very dubious results), but the admiralty has gone so far that it certainly will be compelled to go further"

HUMBERT'S PRISON CELL
 TO BE KEPT A SECRET

deplciting phases in the famous case.
 One of these is a miniature Humbert safe, as empty as that which induced bankers and others to lend millions to the Humberts. The nature of the legal pro- ceedings has not yet been definitely set tied The statement in the extradition papers that the accused are charged with swindiing and irregular bankruptcy pro ceedings gives a general idea of the lines of the prosecution. Creditors are chiefly interested in rescuing the remnant Of their assets, and plans are on foot Tor 2 meeting of the creditors with view to arrange an equitable division.
 The arrest of Mime. Defazza, the friend of Romain d'Aurignac. at Buenos Ayres, was part of the governments energetic plans to apprehend the fusitives. She was not connected with the affair, but 1t was supposed here that her departure for Buenos Ayres indicated that Romain q Aurignac and other members of the Humbert family were in that part of the world.

Paris, December 2i.-As result of con- ferences between Premier combes and Minister of Justice valle, complete ar engagements have been made for the re- leeption of the members of the Humbert famiIy now under arrest, but the precau- ton has been taken not to disclose what prison the fugitives will occupy, or where they will be taken from the train, as popular demonstration is feared. The gov ernment authorities are showing great &C., 1ivity in preparing for the prosecution of the prisoners. M. Hennionm chief of de- tectives. who has gone to Madrid, is ac- companied by four civil guards, four po- lice inspectors and two of the best de- 5ectives in the service. It is expected they will occupy special car with the pris- oners, whose arrival is awaited in Paris with immense interest. The affair con tinues to be the universal topic for dis cussion and even effects the Christmas rejoicing, many of the holiday novelties

IN INTERVIEW HE SAYS NEGROES IN THE SOUTH COULD BE IN DUcED TO GO TO THE PHILIP PINES.

Honolulu, December %. via San Fran Acisco, December AT. Thomas Fortune, )epecial labor commissioner. appointedlby Secretary Shaw to visit the Philippine and Hawaiian Islands, is here. In an .interview he said
 T believe that the importation of ne- s,.roes here forms natural solution of the difficulty unavoidably following the ab- sorption in tropical or seri-tropical coun- fries by the United States. In the south Aern states and in the Carolinas the negro made the industries what they are The commissioner said there might be &dffficulty in detaining the negro here, but she thought that the planters could get all
 hey wanted if they sent the right sort
 agents after them.
 nYou could get 10000 here in six
 onths" he said:
 ln view of the news from Washington - ht the senate gave a hostile reception
 the plan for allowing Chinese to enter
 waii as laborers. the views of Com 9ssioner Fortune have attracted much attention here. Hawaii is in need of la- Dor. The Merchants association, backed by the Builders and Traders exchange and other similar organizations, is prepar- Ing to make a fight in support of the plan offered by the plantation men to se- cure legislation from congress allowing the importation of Chinese laborers for plantation work only under certain re- strictions. Local labor unions have de- cided against the proposition, and will oppose the plan. It Is understood that the plan will be discussed in the worthcomlng commission which recently visited Ha- waii.

 Holiday Dinners and Catarrhal lndi.
 aestion.
 Christmas and New Years brings their joys long anticipated and heartily en- ioyed But the pleasure of holidays is not entirely unalloyed. The big dinners, the nuts and candies. the thousand and one delicacies and rich viands that tempt the palate and seduce the appetite are too well known to need mention.
 All this leads to derange stomachs. Catarrh of he stomach is the immediate result. Gastric catarrh, the doctors call it. One or two doses of Peruna at the time prevent a long siege with catarrh of the stomach (generally called dts pepsia). What the doctors call dyspep- sia. and the people call indigestion, is in reality catarrh of the stomach.
 Holiday over-eating is not entirely con fined to the children, either The old folks sometimes do so, too. Whole fami- lies often suffer together. Catarrh of the stomach. That is the correct name for it.
 Right here Peruna, the friend of the family comes to the rescue No family is exactly safe without Peruna. Nothing will take the place of Peruna. Insist upon having it and no other.

WOMEN TEACHERS
 ON A STRIKE
AS A RESULT THE TRUSTEES ARE ADVERTISING FOR NEW TEACH ERs-cLAIM THEY SHOULD HAVE BEEN PROMOTED.

Winnipeg, Min, December 24-All the women teachers in the Portege Laprairie schools except one have gone on a strike owing to wages.
 The teachers version or the trouble is that last summer the board adopted a schedule of wages regulated according to length of service, which went into eff feet September l. At the opening of the fall term more teachers were wanted and outsiders were hired at highr salaries, instead of promoting those already en- gagged. The teachers then wrote individual letters, asking for an increase in wages. but were ignored.
 They are supported by practically by every leading man in the town. The trustees are advertising TOT thirteen new teachers.
