MONKEY PLAYED MANY PARTS.
Defined by Customs Men as a Bird,
Handbag and a Dog.

On the travels of a monkey from
Genoa to Heidelberg an amusing farce
might be written. A German gentle
tiny monkey weighing barely a
couple of pounds. From Tanga to
Genoa all went well with the Lilli-
putian animal. 1t was a favorite with
everyone, and Travelled free until
Genoa was reached, when it's troubles
began.
Brought under the notice of the Ge-
noese customhouse authorities, it was
promptly deprived of its identity. 1t
was no longer an animal; it became
bird, and as a bird, on which %
cents was charged it was conveyed to
the Swiss frontier, where, at stroke
of the customhouse officers wand 1t
was transformed into a cat at the in
creased assessment of $1.56, and
borne by train to Zurich.
On its arrival there it ceased, as a
cat, to exist, and became mere pack
AEGEAN item of luggage that was con-
veyed to Constance for the nominal
sum of 16 cents.
Still as luggage, though metamor-
phized from a package into handbag,
it went on its way to Stuttgart, where
a great honor awaited it. 1t was, on
payment of $2.04, exalted into dog,
and it was as a dog that it ended its
journey at the university town of

Jacques
MADAM SANS GENE

Not so very many years ago a
 play was brought out at the Broad
 way theater. in New York which ere
 ated no end of comment, enjoyed a
 big run, brought great French ac-
 tress to this country for the first and
 only time and started several young
 players on the high road of success.
 The play was Victorie Sardou's Ma
 dame Sans Gene which had made a
 tremendous hit in Paris where great
 Napoleonic revival was going on at
 the time. It had to do with characters fin the stormy history of the Little Corporal and its technique was spok- en of as quite the best thing the most popular of the French drama lists had done in years .Augustin Daly produced the piece in America with superb cast in which the title role of the washer woman duehesse was taken by Katharine Kidder. then an unknown young actress. and one of the most important characters that of the Marshal De Neiperg was played by James K. Hackett then an undreamed of dramatic star. Aug1ls- tus Cook played Napoleon and he Is said to have given characterization of the emperor that has stood to this day without a rival. So great was the vogues of the play and so many crit icisms made upon the respective mer- Its of Miss Kidder and Madame Re jane. who was doing the same role ac-oSs thp wafpr that the Eranch ,x-o. man was brought to the United States for a limited engagement in q Sandou repertoire. Her performance gave another boom to the drama and it ran for an entire season at the and for several more on the road. The roli stock company will present the play with complete scenic and costume mounting at the Jacques next week. Prices are I0. c0 and 30 cents. afternoons 10 and c0 cents. ladies 10 cents. Souvenirs every afternoon.

BAILEY HOT AGAIN
Congress Hears Strong Lan-
 guage From Texas Senator.
WANTS GOSPEL OF "sQUARE DEAL"
Puts on Record Letter From Chandler Regarding Long Continued Con-
 trovorsy Between Certain Sen- Set ators and the President.

St ators and the President.
 WASHINGTON, May 1s.-In another statement In the senate to a question of privilege Senator Bailey of Texas denounced In strong terms charges of double dealing against him that he plainly attributed to the president.
 "I'll brand across his forehead the word liar, so that in after years all men may know him and all honest men may shun him. were Bailey's closing words in declaring that no man could charge him with double dealing and escape his denunciation.
 The Texas senator, aroused to white heat over the aspersions against him printed in New York and Chicago pa pers, which he holds the president in- spired, said that he knew what were the fortunes of war, and he cheerfully accepted them. and if it be civilized warfare he had no complaint
 Tn this century of civilization and progress" he added, "when the gospel of the square deal is on the lips of men, our political adversaries ought at least to fight with the common fairness of the prize fighter. They ought not to strike below the belt"
 The senator had arisen. to reply fur ther to assertions made In the newspa- pers he had attacked, which alleged that ex-Senator Chandler had sent memorandum to the president through Loeb saying Bailey was suspected of working to further the railroad cause.
 He asked to have put in the Record a letter he had addressed to Chandler asking for any letter he (Chandler) might have written on which such charges could be based. After his Jet ter to Chandler was read Chandler's re- ply was also presented for reading, with this memorandum from ex-Sena- tor Chandler to Loeb dated April II:
 "The game of the railroad senators is to support Bailey's amendment and induce him to agree to the broad right of review. What that is to be is not certain, but the principal object is to beat him. meaning the president. Mir. Tillman. however. considers him. self as acting with the president. to pass the review clause with the mini mum amount of court power and will not enter into any such game"
 To this was added direction to Loeb to hand this to the president privately.
 With the exception of Mir Bailey's Aggression the entire day was devoted to a review by the senate of the amend ments made in committee of the whole and covered somewhat more than half of the measure
 Senator Deliver moved to add tray- cling secretaries of Y. NJ. c. As to the free pass list. and the amendment was accepted. Senator Hale then moved to include baseball and football play rs"zand Senator McLansS1 nxNidooys and rrphans." Both wersy0sed Nd6Wnl amid laughter.

Any work that is a constant strain on the back Is bound to hurt the kid neys. The lifting. digging and plant ing of farm work. the constant bend Ing over a desk or sitting at a sewing machine. working for hours on jarring. jolting wagons or railroad trains; the stopped positions and the reaching. pulling and heavy lifting of a hundred different trades-all these are hard on the back and must wear. weaken and injure the Kidneys. because the kid neys are in the very part of the back that feels the strain. When the kid neys are sick. every exertion sends sharp. stinging pain through the back or loins. and you are weary and tired all the time.
