Monkey Wac HorrIfied.

A naturalist who has travelled In the
East Indies says: "The effect on the
monkeys Of mans appearance is most
interesting The expression of their
emotions Is certainly almost human
as they sit and stare at him, coughing
and snarling with anger and contempt,
drawing back their heads and throw
ing the hand before the face with a
gesture of adherence and other move
ments Indicative of shocked and out
ragged feelings. But predominant is
the expression of absolute horror.
which, coming from those we consider
our still degraded cousins, is to our
superiority very aggravating."

FAD OF A FAMOUS JAcKpAw.
Bird Took Trips on Buses and Gave
His Foes a Tonuue Lashjno.

His Foes a Tongue Lashing.
The Brixton jackdaw, which was
found dead recently in the bar of the
Angel Arms at Brixton, London, was
a great celebrity in his own way. All
jackdaws have fads of their own, and
the favorite fad of this particular bird
was to travel all over London on omni-
buses, trains and cabs. He was thor
oughly well known to every 'busman
in the Brixton district; he used to
take his seat on bus beside the
driver, and would chatter most volu-
bly, till the journey to the city or else
where was accomplished, when he
would fly back to his Brixton home.
He was a bird of strorg likes and dis
likes, and when any of his masters
customers failed to find favor in his
sight he would assail them with the
most embarrassing flow of language.

Rock island to Contest the Ruling OF
Railroad Commission.

The long-continued chickering's be-
tween the Texas railroad commission
and the Rock Island are extremely
likely to reach a crisis in the not far
distant future. The ruling of the COM
mission to the effect that the plan to
operate the Texas lines of the Southern
Pacific as part of the Rock Island sys-
TEN is illegal will be fought by the
Rock Island through all the courts
available in Texas. and, If necessary. in
Washington.
Put briefly, the object of the railroad
commission in it's attack on the Rock
Island is to force the latter to build
some lines in Texas which would par
allel the Houston & Texas Central,
and which the Rock Island viii not
build.
The object of the Rock Island is to
get an entrance into the gulf ports
without paralleling existing lines any
more than possible.
The legal question must be settled
by the courts, and the supreme court
of the United States will finally be
called upon for a ruling in the case.
In the meantime. the Rock Island will
operate the lines in question as at
present.

RACINE, Wis, Sept. 5.-Charles Ed

Minneapolis, and brother of Tom Shev-
linz chairman of the Republican state
central committee, came here today
in custody of a deputy sheriff and ap-
piled to Judge Belden, of the circuit
court, for writ of habeas corpus re-
curing those who hold him to appear
before the court and show cause why
he should not be set free. He has been
detained at a sanitarium near Lake
Geneva and is now trying to free him
self from an insanity charge
Mr.. Shevlin said that for a year or
longer he has been in Europe with his
wife and children, and that he returned
few months ago leaving his family
abroad. He has been staying at Lake
Geneva of late. For some time he has
been watched and Swallowed, he said,
and without cause he found himself
under restraint and virtually a pris-
oner and he was denied a meeting with
his attorney. He applied to the county
court of Walworth county for writ Of
habeas corpus. 1t was served on the
parties who held him, he says, but
without answering the writ, they took
him by force and hurried him across
the state line into Illinois, where they
held him a prisoner until they made
arrangements to bring him before the
county judge of Walworth county for
examination into his mental condition.
There he was denied a conference with
his attorney and he asked for jury
trial, but trial was adjourned. Then
he was committed to the custody of
William j. Elstone, a deputy sheriff, in
whose custody he is now held in the
city of Racine. The habeas corpus writ

THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL.

Preserving Health and Beauty.


Nearly everybody knows that charcoal
is the safest and most efficient disinfec-
tant and purifier In nature, but few real
ize its value when taken into the human
system for the same cleansing purpose.
- Charcoal Is remedy that the more
you take of it the better: it is not drug
at all, but simply abSorbs the gases and
impurities always present in the stom-
ach and inteStineS and carries them out
of the system.
Charcoal sweetens the breath after
smoking. drinking or after, eating onions
and other odorous vegetables.
Charcoal effectually clears and improves
the complexion, it whitens the teeth and
further acts as natural and emfnently
safe cathartic. st
1t absorbs the injurious gases which col
lect in the stomach and bowels; it disin-
fects the mouth and throat from the poi

SECRETARY SHAW
HELPS ST. LOUIS BANKS
Government Will Deposit $500 600
Due to the Worlds Fair.

CHICAGO, Sept. 5.-Secretary Shaw
was in Chicago today on his way to
Deadwood, S. D., to attend the meet
ing of the American Mining congress.
1t was understood that he had taken
action to relieve the ST. Louis banks
from the strain incident to the expend-
lures on account of the exposition.
Secretary Shaw said:
1.-The banks at st. Louis have adj
vanced directly probably $4,000, 600 of
the $10,000,000 expended upon the ex-
position grounds and buildings, and
indirectly nearly the entire amount. In
addition to this, they have advanced
100000 or 100000 to concession
aires. They are now facing the annual
demand for money to move the crops in
the Southwest, and are shipping from
100000 to $S00,000 per day. The gov
eminent has copartnership interest
in the exposition. This is available
only to meet the current expenditures.
To relieve the present situation 1 have
arranged to deposit $2,500,000 in the
banks at st. Louis. This would be of
no advantage to the banks If they
were compelled to purchase government
bonds as security therefor. They have
tried to borrow the bonds, but they are
not available.
I'm order to assist the banks such
securities as the banks can furnish
must be accepted The banks can fur
nish such securities as the Legislature
of New York has approved for savings
banks, and I have agreed to accept the
same as security for the $2,500,000 at
so per cent of their par value. In
other words, the banks will deposit
$5,000,000 of state and municipal bonds,
such as New York approves, as secur-
ity for money belonging to widows and
orphans, and upon this $5,000,000 the
government will deposit $2,500, 900.
This, however, is intended as tempo
rary loan, and will be gradually re-
called as the $5,000,0O0 appropriated is
expended

JUDGE OF PROBATE
IS IN A QUANDARY
Unexpected VIII Turns Up and
Administrator May Have to
Refund.
Special to The Globe

Special to The Globe
ST. CLOUD, Mimi, Sept. 5.-Judge
Calhoun, of the probate court, is wres-
Ting with problem that is causing
him loss of sleep, and threatening to
demoraiize his peace of mind. While
the law seems to point quite clearly in
one direction, his innate sense of JUS
tice extends the other way.
Bernard Willing died at New Munich
in 1882 and left will giving his widow
life estateAin his property and pro-
viding for its final disposition among
the surviving children at her death.
The will also provided for certain leg
acies and payments. The widow sur
vived her husband twenty years, dying
in 1902, and she, too, left will pro-
yidfng for the division of the property
among the children and directing her
executor to make payment of her flu
neral expenses, for the purchase of a
monument of herself, a small payment
to the church of which she was a mem
Der, and other small requests.
4 John Frevel, of New Munich, was
named as executor, and proceeded to
administer the estate. He had COM
piled with the terms of the will and
had expended several hundred dollars
before it was discovered that there
existed will left by Bernard Willing
and which had never been presented
Gently brought into court and offered
as the last will and testament of Ber-
nard Willing, deceased. 1t was in man
ner and form as by law provided, and
there seemed to be no question of it's
genuineness. 1t was therefore admit
ted to probate.
Then arose the legality of the ap-
pointment and the consequent illegality
of the acts of John Frvel as admins
traitor of the estate of Mrs. Willing
With the declaration of the legality
of the will of Mr.. Willing there was
nothing to administer on the part of
the Widows executor and the money
he had paid and the acts performed
could not be countenanced by law.
Frvel seems to be in for a refundment
of the money which he has expended,
unless there shall be compromise of
the matter among thei heirs. But this
appears to be an impossible undertake
ing, as the children are at outs regard
Ing the division of the estate.
Judge Calhoun finds the law quite
plain and sees no escape from ruling
that Frevel must refund the money he
has expended in paying the funeral
expenses of Mrs. Willing. the legacy
he has paid the church and the money
expended In a monument for the dead
woman. He realizes the injustice of
the matter and is in quandary.
