Habits of Monkeys.

In their wild state monkeys live III

fruits. leaves and insects. They live
together in companies and never go
alone when they wish to rob an or

If they laid regular plans, for part of
them stand - watch the approach of
enemies and part enter the field. They
form straight line, reaching from
those within to some place beyond
which is a retreat for them. When
they are all arranged in due order
those In the orchard near the trees
throw the fruit to those outside as fast
as they can gather It, These pass it
over to those nearest to them TIL the
fruit is all nicely lodged In their hut
or retreat. If the one who acts as
sentinel perceives any one coming, he
makes n loud noise, and they all run
away. Yet even then they will take
some fruit under each of their arms or
forepaws and also in their mouths.
They are mischiCvous animals and an.
noy travellers exceedingly by throwing
stones and sticks ut them, and they
will frequently follow them for some
distance when they are passing through
the woods by leaping from tree to tree
They are capable of forming strong at
tachments even with other animals
and they exhibit mildness, affection
and docility.

shington. October sf.-(speciall-

Washington October St.-(Speciall- There are prospects that il is only matter of time before an open rupture occurs between President Roosevelt and Governor Hughes of New York What is underlying all is the independent at titude of Governor Hughes who has from the day of his inauguration plainly dem onstrated the fact that he does not want any outside interference from the White House, or elsewhere. The result Is that the President who has been so used to having all the republican leaders in the country with the possible exception of Senator Foraker of Ohio, servilely fall ing over themselves to gratify his every whim finds himself out of touch with the main factor behind the organization in the most powerful state in the coun- try.
 A number Of little things have cropped out tending to show that the relations between the President and the state executive were not the most cordial Taken individually, they have amounted to little, but collectively they point to a parting of the ways. Reports are now being circulated by sources suspiciously close to the President that Parsons sent a representative to Governor Hughes be- for the alliance was made with the Hearst forces In New York and the Governor offered no objection to the fusion move ment

QUARREL RESULTS
 IN DEATH OF THREE
FORMER SALOONKEEPERS SHOOTS HIS WIFE, A FRIEND WHO IN- TERFERES AND THEN KILLS HIMSELF.

Memphis, October 31.-.As a termination of the domestic troubles in the household of J. B. Rutherford, a former saloon keeper of Tipton county, Tennessee, two persons are dead and third is dying, the result of wounds inflicted by Ruther- ford after a quarrel with his wife. Ruth erford who came to this city about five years ago from Covington, Tenn, and his wife, had parted and divorce proceed ings, instituted by Mrs. Rutherford, were in progress. Late this evening the hus- band, who 1t is stated had been drinking, went to the boarding house where his wife had apartments and endeavored to have her withdraw the divorce proceed ings and to effect a reconciliation.
 Failing in his efforts, it is stated he was about to attack the woman when Eugene H. Peete, a friend of the couple, and at one time a county official of Tip ton county. rushed into the rom- Direct ing his already drawn weapon toward Peete, the apparently half crazed man fired, the bullet going toward Peete, and true to it's mark. resulted in Peete's al- most instant death. The second bullet was fired at the retreating form of a companion of Peete's, but was without result. Turning to his wife, Rutherford again fired, mortally wounding her. and then placing the weapon to his own head. fired for the fourth time, ending an other life and the tragedy. Mrs. Ruth erford was immediately removed to hos pital. but although at late hour tonight she is still alive. no hope is entertained for her recovery. ,.

Against Raising a Crop.

Shelbyville, Ky, October 31.-The Ma tional Tobacco Growers association late today unanimously adopted resolutions declaring against the raising of a crop of burley tobacco next year
 The adoption of the resolution as to non-production of tobacco in the burley district sets at rest all doubts as to the attitude of the National association.
 It was pointed out that while there is an over supply of tobacco in the burley district, there is a scarcity of weed in the dark district and non-production would do no good there The same is true of various other parts of the coun- try to such an extent that unanimity on the part of members of the National Tobacco Growers association could not be secured on the non production plan. and the project would be a. failure as a national movement.
 As the situation now stands without prospect of change, the only non-produc- ing district will be the burley district, comprising over 90 counties in Kentucky, few in Indiana and one or two in Ohio
