siMIAN LOVE AND REVENGE.
Peculiar Conduct Of a Monkey Causes
Sailors Much trouble.

A curious story of love and revenge
comes to us from the far east and he
fact that it is the love and OF
a Javanese monkey doesn't abate the
human interest in the narrative. MOI
should the further fact that the tale
comes to US via the crew OF a tramp
steamer abate all confidence In Its
truth. 1t appear that he sailors
who manned this steamer had collect
ed in Java a number of monkeys Tor
speculative purposes and these wer"
confined in he hold.
Among them we're two unusually In
telligent simians who wore released
during the voyage and permitted the
freedom of the ship. Unhappily a
sudden storm came up and one oil
the playful creatures was washed over
board. The remaining one, who after
his comrades sudden taking on
searched the ship for hours n nm
| ally betook himself to the rigging
where he remained three days, refus-
ing food n avoiding all efforts to
capture him.
No doubt he held the sailors re-
| snonsible for the death OF MS parlhoi
and 1t would appear that he was for,
mulating a scheme for revenge. ANY
way, the third night he released all
the monkeys In the hold and for TWO
days the simians made life mis-
cradle for the sailors. They bit and
scratched and fought and it was only
after a number of them had beer hung
overheard that the balance could De
captured and secured. And In all the
forays and fierce charges the revenge
full monkey was in he van.
Whatever may be c%ontended o
corning the reasoning powers OF the
brute creation, there has been many
instances recorded of their remem
brance of past injuries. INC this rae
would seem to give the story oil mon
