WAS THE BIGGEST GORILLA.

There has just been placed on eXhi bition in the Umlauff museum at Ham, burg the biggest known specimen of gorilla. 1t was shot in the Cameron territory in West Africa. 1t measured six feet ten and three quarters inches from the crown of the head to the mid- dle toe. and across. from middle finger to middle finger, nine feet three and three quarters inches. The cOmmer- cial traveller. Herr Paschen. of Sch werin shot this gigantic gorilla It was not an easy matter to remove the gorilla to the coast and thence to Ham, burg, but there it is now. almost life like in appearance, so carefully was the mounting and stuffing done. Alongside is the gigantic skeleton. Since the gorilla was placed on exhi- bition the crowds at the museum have been enormous, and the comments up- on it's marked resemblance to the hu- man species have been general.-Kan- sas City Journal.

Every seat at Eastlake park was fill ed last night to see the Curtiss Come dy company in the four act melodrama of Over the Hills to the Poorhouse." " All the best theater patrons were there, and all expressed themselves highly pleased by the efforts of this popular company. The play Is we'll suited for summer use. as it is brisk and lively in style. And while it contains a great deal of touching pathos, there is such a liberal sprinkling of comedy sand wiched in that it makes the entire play one that cannot fail to please. S. M. Curtiss as Nimrod proved an intending source of amusement, and kept the audience in laughter and good cheer. Others of the dramatic cast were all good, and the whole performance gave the best of satisfaction. The special ties were the best since the opening, and fully deserved the hearty recalls they received. The usual jolly crowd of dancers remained to participate in that part of the programme. Tonight will be the last of the truly great play of over the Hills to the Poor House, and the production merits a large house.

In Cleveland there have been eight daeths. South NOrwalk. Conn.,. has had two. These are only a few eX- amples of the terrible work of the toy pistol on the Fourth Of July. Probably the blame should not be imputed so much to the pistol as to the cartridge used in it. Just before the Fourth it was announced that an examination of the blank cartridges used in these toy pistols showed that they contained the germs of tetanus. Subsequent events seem to confirm that opinion. It does not seem possible that the metal of the pistol could, in so many cases, cause lockjaw as the result of decorations in- fliCted by it. The germs of tetanus, it is thought, exist in the materials of the cartridge.-kansas City Journal.

YOURS TO DECIDE, LADIES.

Here is the advertisement of an Atchison store which has white goods" for sale. Its personal imprudence is excused, perhaps, by the originality of the idea:
 "One of these nights a mouse will gnaw match on your pantry shelf, dear sister, and the fire will spread till it reaches your room, and you escape with your life, clad only in your night garments. Such a. spectacular oppor- tunity to create a sensation doesn't oc- cur oftener than once in lifetime, and how will you meet it? Dear sister. will your night clothes be such that the firemen will want to plunge into the flames and die, or will you look like the pictures on the billboards ?"-Kar- sas City Journal.

Two gentlemen were standing in front of the Hotel Adams yesterday when they were approached by q couple of women who were evidently strangers in the city.

 The gentleman replied that he could not discriminate from any personal ex- perience he had ever had but he be licved that they were all good.
 Their work was all, so far as he had heard CT been able to observe equally effective. The mounds in the grave yard all looked alike and the most competent judges of undertakers had been unable to tell who had Cificiated in the case of any particular mound. There was no record that any subject that had ever been treated by any of them had ever come to life. Indeed he could thing of no way to make +n invidious comparison among under takers.

 At this point the gentleman fell off the perch. The gentleman in the cOursc of his life had met many gentlemen engaged in the undertaking business whom he liked as men but ne had never yet seen one who had attained popularity by reason of his profession.

MINISTER'S WELL-TRAINED
 SONS.

Not the least gift of the American clergy (and their "vives) has been the training of their sons. Think for a mo- ment of Emerson. whose ancestors had been ministers for five generations. James Russell Lowell started from d minister's home. Oliver Wendell Holmes learned to tune his Tyre in his fathers parsonage. Henry Ward Beecher sprang from the loins of grand old minister of brain and Drawn.
 Looking at the records of literature in England we find the same thing. Addison. Thomson, Goldsmith, Coler- idge, Young. Cowper. Montgomery, Heber and Tennyson, were sons of the prophets and withal hymn writers and great poets. Turning to philosophy you have the same story. Dugald Stewart, Reid. Abercrombie and Bent ham were parsons sons.
 In general literature we find multi tudes of ministers sons-Swift, Ma cauley, Thackeray. Kingsley and Matt heNv Arnold were clergymen's sons.
 O. the more recent past or still living are such men as Lord Charles Beres- ford, Lord CurZon Cecil Rhodes. w T. Steed, Anthony Hope, R. D. Black more, Henry James, Marcus Dods and Grant Allen. Such names as these, sup plemented by thousands less conspic- Uous, but none the less useful, that can be found in any American or English work of national biography. will stand as an abiding witness that ministers sons turn out-and they turn out we'll Pacific Churchman.
