MONKEY. STOPPED A TRAIN
WENT TO SLEEP HANGING BY HIS
TAIL TO AIR-BRAKE LEVER IN
GENTRY BROTHERS. SPECIAL.

There was unusual CONSERVATION
and excitement ION the Gentry Broth
ers show train late Saturday night,
between. Faribault and this city, with
the result that it became necessary TO-
side-traeks THE cars at Pennington and
coach.t1 Shortly after leaving Fart
bault at 1 o'clock, the train, which is
regularly equipped with air brakes,
came to stop so suddenly that every
one was awakened :, with a shock.
Something was wrong with the air,
left. their posts for an investigation.
They could find nothing out Of order,
and, after testing the brakes, resumed
the journey toward Minneapolis.
:. A few miles from Pennington,
while running at a high rate Of speed
in order to make up the lost time, the
train again came to a stop with
gineer that some person was tamper-
ing with the brakes. Dishes were
thrown about and broken to pieces;
elephants bumped one another and
roared; a hundred dogs barked and
monkeys sscreeched out their dis.
pleasure at the rude awakening.
- The engineer determined not to pro-
coed until the trouble was located.
Every fatcar was carefully gone over.
Then the sleeping apartments Of the
tralnhandS, were inspected. Even the
staterooms Of w. w. Gentry and man
ager and treasurer were investigated,
but no irregularities were found.
The last car to be visited was that
in which the great family Of dogs and
monkeys travel. These little actors,
meantime, had gone to sleep again,
but careful scrutiny revealed that the
door of one Of the monkey cages had
been left open, and sMonkavolo," one
OF the largest animals and famous as
the looprider,, was missing. Mr.. Gen
try was at once awakened and notified
Someone lin the searching party
raised lantern above his head, near
the door, and yelled: why, here's
monk hanging to the air lever
There was a. rush for the spot,
where the searchers saw the daredevil
Brazilian suspended bys his tail from
the air lever, his head resting on the
edge of convenient shelf. He had
left his cage, leaped upon the lever,
released the air and stopped the
train. "Monkavolo" was returned to
his cage, and the employee whose duty
it is to lock all cages was discharged
and paid Off.
The adventurous Simian was only
captured thru his own greed, as
monkeys generally are. A pickle bot
tie was secured, and stout cord tied
to it. In the bottle was placed a nut,
and the bottle thrown near where the
animal took refuge. 'tMonkavolo'' i'm
mediately spied the morsel in the bot
tie, and reaching in for the same, re-
fused to release his hold, and was
drawn toward his captors.

In the early '30s, society at Fort
Smelling and around Lakes Harriet
and Calhoun was composed mainly of
officers, soldiers and furtraders. There
was a dearth Of women and women's
charms. There were, however, some
very handsome daughters of the forest
and the prairies, who partly compen-
stated for the absence of their Anglo
Saxon sisters.
Among these were the daughters Of
Man Skye, then the leading
Sioux chieftain of this region. He
was Il man of high character for a
pagan savage. Before the advent of
tivation Of the soil as a means Of
livelihood for his people, and many
small fields of corn in those early days
waved around Lakes Calhoun and
Harriet, on whose shores he and his
band then dwelt. He also taught his
warriors that 1T was wrong to kill nom
combatants in times Of war and to
kill anyone in time Of peace.
He adopted these principles when

sionaries came, he welcomed them, in

He was the father Of seven children,
all Of whom are dead, except his
youngest son, David Weston, his sue

Daughters Were Beauties.
The daughters Of Manor Skye
were called Hushes-the-night and

officers and fur traders paid their
homage. They were the first bellies OF

CHOKING cATARRH CURED
Your Money Back If Hyomei Does
Not Cure You.

Use Hyomei and be cured of ca
tarrh, is what all who have tried it
for that disease say to their friends.
It is the easiest thing in the world
to stop catarrh at it's beginning if
you use Hyomei. Just breathe the
health-giving, balsamic air for a few
minutes and your catarrh will be
cured. In the worst cases of this
disease, chronic or acute, Hyomei
used four or five times day is all
that is needed to soon effect a cure.
In this city and neighboring towns
there are hundreds who can testify
to the remarkable powers of Hyo-
mel to cure catarrh. Many of the
staunchest friends of this remedy to-
day began it's use with little hope
that they would be cured, but as the
Dillin Drug Co. offered to refund the
money If it did not cure, they decided
to try it on that plan. and were soon
restored to health.

Should every man, woman and child
in Minneapolis determine to take
street car ride, all on the same day.
the task presented 2to the street rail
way company would seem impossible.
Nevertheless the records of the Fourth
Of July traffic Of the Twin City Rapid

eral Manager w. j.. Held show that
more than 100000 nickels and trans
fers were taken by the conductors, or
more than the com bined population of
the two cities. 49,
This was a record day, as large as
any in the history of the company.
The management can point with
particular pride to the fact that this
traffic was carried without serious ac-
cident and without particular discom-
fort. Power, equipment and employees
We're equal to the enormous business
suddenly thrown on to them. The
policy of the company in charging its
power plants and in constantly add
ing to its equipment was justified by
the success attained Monday. It is
taken as an augury of the ease with
which the state fair crowds will be
handled.
Railroads Did Business.
Ri Nearly $4,000. was carted to the
banks by the railroads this week as
Fourth Of July excursion tickets. In
| ST. Paul 100000 was taken IN d lump
from the union station to the First
National bank and extraordinary care
was taken to prevent a holdup of the
bus which had been impressed into
service. The Minneapolis ticket agents
made frequent deposits, but the total
was $4,000. better than st. Paul
| showed.
The st. Louis, road did an $4,000
business the Milwaukee station re-
ported $1,000 and the union station
came in with nearly round $4,000.
A large part Of the St. Louis road
receipts was from Lake Minnetonka
traffic. General Passenger Agent A. B.
Cults reports lake traffic from 20 to 80
per cent better than a year ago, and
the 1908 season business was consid-
cred rather phenomenal. Other lines
report good business also. The hop
night late trains are well patronized
also.
