Straight through the seat of his newly acquired trousers the old rusty nail plunged, and there David hung. Had he drunk less freely he might have left only his trousers to be captured by the officers, but David hadn't drunk less freely, and so the charge of suspected felony was placed against him at the county jail

Feed Onions to Monkeys In New York
Zoo with Disastrous Results and
Keepers Are Looking for Them.

The Society for the Prevention of
Cruelty to Animals. of New York, is
after the two boys who placed onions
in the big monkey cage in the Glen
island zoo. If it is successful in find.
ing them an example probably will be
made of them. p =
The two lads were among large
crowd Of spectators before the monkey
cage one day recently when they threw
between the bars three or four small
but very powerful onions.
The monkeys Immediately made a
dash for the vegetables and began to
tear them open with both tooth and
nail. AS soon as they tasted the onion
juice they began to howl and shrek.
1t bit their tongues and brought forth
streams Of tears. Then. as II to make
matters worse, they rubbed their eyes
with their onion stained paws and the
pain naturally became intensified.
h, They scampered about the cage in wild
paroxysms of agony, emitting pitiful
cries of pain. while the spectators,
despite their sympathy, roared at their
antics.
It took the keepers the rest Of the
day to pacify the simians and relieve
them Of the smarting caused by the
onion juice. Two boys were arrested
last winter for doing q similar trick
in the Central park ZOO and were
locked up over night. + - !. =, s..

he lives. 1t is the place where he
wins his confidence and educates'

it as popular as possible he cannot
afford to be Indifferent to anything
which further these ends 1t can
be said that a town that is worthy
the devotion of it's citizens in maxi
ing it wholly known and greatly
prosperous is town in which it is
worth the full measure of our de-
votion to merely take share: of
the common benefit accorded to
the community. We may yet add,
if persons cannot identify them
selves with the interest of their
town and be in sympathy and touch
with the people with whom they
live, it would be better for them
and the town if they would "move
out" There are people who live
off a community and contribute
nothing to it. They oppose the
church, state and school and every
thing done in which they cannot
lead or make profit out of; tearing
down without ability or disposition
to build up. In their fault finding,
opposition and indifference they
discourage and crush what could
be made more prosperous if they
expended half the effort in trying
tosbuild it up, that they do in dis
couraging improvements Sher-

Stay at Home, Bows.

We have heard a great many of
the men in these parts talk about
going to Panama to work upon the
canal in the near future, expecting
to get big wages and, by economic
ing for few years, return to the
states with a nice saving as re-
ward for risking their lives in, the
unhealthy climate. -
1t the writings of Marlen> N. Pew,
who is in Panama for an associa-
ton of newspapers, investigating
actual conditions down there, are
true we would advise the boys to
stick to their jobs in the mines of
Lake Superior. Pew says J. that
wages are low, about on a par with
those paid in the states, whereas
against this must be charged an
increase in the cost of living
amounting to from fifty to $50 per
cent. Wages of engineers are from
$75 to 500 per month and clerks the
came. Accommodations are reported
as being very bad. Common labor
gets $l.5O in silver or 75c in. gold. B. B.
The canal commission Is under
such close scrutiny that the mem
bers are especially severe on get
ting results and limiting expendi-
lures. Il is probable that these
wages will have to be increased e

willing, honest and capable and was
advanced from one position to another
