THE MONKEYS GRIN.

The following from the Oklahoman is a warning to all persons not to monkey with the monkey:
 City Attorney Chambers and Mike. the Monk" were on exhibition before a crowd that comfortably filled police court last night. when Harry Laux and w. T. Hall were placed on trial charg- ed with cruelty to animals. Admission was free.
 With Mike sitting on a table. tbe city attorney. with rubber ball, gave an exhibition of the way the alleged cruelty had been practiced at Delmar. City Attorney Chambers hurled rub Der balls at Mike. while the monkey dodged and grinned. MT. Chambers merely intended to convey to the court the way a monkey acts when it feels itself in danger, but that grin came near losing him his case.
 Hes mad.' said Mr. Chambers af- ter he had thrown the ball at Mike several times
 Hes bluffing." retorted A. A.. Byers attorney for Laux and Hall
 Then the question of whether monkey is mad when it grins was dis
 
 any light on this question. Blackstone forgot to say anything about it: the encyclopedia is silent on the subject, and nobody had a copy of Darwin's great work: When is Man Not Monkey?"
 "Tell you what I'll do.'' said Cham bers. at length. I'll let him loose. permit you to throw at him and you can decide for yourself whether he's mad"
 Not me- said Byers.
 q don't think it's right to treat q monkey that way" interrupted the court. "and, as for you,'' he continued. running to Laux and Hall. "I'n find you 8 and costs and suspend the find if you promise to not use Mike as a target in the future.'
 They promised.
 Mike has lost his job.
 The monkey exhibition at Delmar is at an end. but one great question re- mains unsettled:
 '.Is monkey mad when it grins."

Mr.. Mackey, a Chicago Mission
worker of considerable note, and
Mr.. Miller, a Minneapolis singer
of sacred songs, took part in the
chapel service last Sunday morn
ing. Mr.. Mackey is reformed
drunkard, and during his sermon
he related much of his early ex-
perience and how he received the
grace of God and consecrated his
life to Christianity. According
to the speakers story he has led
a turbulent life and suffered much.
Mr.. Mackey has his headquarters
in Chicago and is doing much
good to redeem those who are in
the clutches Of the demon rum.
Mr.. Miller possesses an excep-
tional good voice and it was a
pleasure to listen to him.

twenty-five foot topmast. When
schooner construction developed
to the point where new type
spar was needed to take care of
the increased sail area and conse-
quent increased strain. the forests
OF the North and South were
abandoned for those of the Pa.
cific slope. Here were found the
magnificent sticks now seen in the
seven masters. These spars are
called Oregon Pine and are noted
for their splendid qualities, not
only in point of size and weight,
but for their fibrous qualities
which will cause it to bend and
almost buckle, before it will break
when taxed beyond its natural
capacity. These spars are also
used as keelsons, giving added
stability as their great length dis
penses with the necessity of lay
ing the keelson in sections. These
spars, and the vessels on the stocks,
can be seen at the ship-building
yards Of Pigeon & Co., and Thorn

average size is about one hundred

The question is often asked by
non.seafaring men, why are
sohooners used in coastwise traffic
in preference to square rugged
ships? Aside from the reason of
economical management. schoon-
ers are used because fore and
aft rig can beat to windward points
nearer the wind than a square rig
ger can. Thus if the wind is from
the North and the ships course is
due North, a schooner can point
to the Northeast by North, where
a square rugged ship could only
point to the East Northeast, six
points from North. This is an
important matter in saving time
and is the real advantage the
schooner has over her competitor
in the coast trade and domestic
commerce. r. j. W.

We have received several very
touching lays on Spring by our
inside poets, one of which we pub
lish in this issue. A poem on
spring is something a poet is
drawn to es irresistibly as iron is
to magnet. AS be views the bud
ding trees, the rich verdure, the
beautiful flowers, etc., his soul
goes out in ecstacies of JOY, and
he gives expression to his admira-
ton in poetry. Ordinary mortals
look upon these changes and sim
ply call it wonderful. That is the
difference between the poet and
the average person.

We found tracks that were as
big as your hand. We trailed the
animal about two miles up among
the mountains to cave. There
were all kinds of signs that he
had been there, but how to get him
out was where we were stumped.
Il will tell you," remarked
Hank; 81 will crawl into the cave
short distance, and if I see him, I
will let him have 1t. If he comes
out don't let him get away"
I sat down upon a boulder to
wait. Hank had been gone long
time and I was getting uneasy
when a slight noise to the left of
me drew my attention. I looked
that way and almost let my heart
jump out of my mouth. I had to
swallow two or three times to keep
it down. One of the biggest lions
l ever saw was headed for the
cave, with a half-grown lamb in
it's mouth, like cat would carry a
mouse. I was so scarf that I let
him get to the cave before I made
n move. Then I jumped up and
down, shot my gun into the air,
and yelled loud enough to scare
any self-respecting lion to death.
He whipped into that hole so
quick that I could hear his tail
snap.
He had been in there about half
minute when the biggest bunch
of cat meowing came floating out
with punches of rags and hide I
have ever heard or seen. Pretty
quick great big bunch of junk
came sailing out end over end and
saying things that were awful. It
was Hank, or what was left of
him, and he was talking so fast
that the words came out in
lunches.
Cub, you skunk, are you To-
coed? By heck I'll get even with
you, by doggie! Let him come
in, will you, by C@ser! By gravy,
why didn't you shoot him? Eli
gethim now if I have to tear down
the whole mountain, by smoke"

fever so bad that I could not take

We smoked him out, and it
turned out to be female with
cubs. She went into that hole
quicker because she scented Hank
and because the cubs were in
there, and not because of the noise
l had made. Hank was pleased
with his capture. He knew where
he could sell the cubs for a bunch
of money. It took him a long
time to grow all the hide he lost,
and still longer to get over beingl
mad at me. 1906.

about $4,000. For q seven masted
schooner these spars would weigh
about one hundred tons to which
must be added the weight of the
topmasts, booms, ''gafts and other
spars, also the wire rigging. Mr..
A. L. Fowler, a naval architect, es-
Inmates the total expenditures
for spars in q seven master to
foot up $1,000; the rigging and
timeof Triggers, $4,000; sails. S., 600;
an outlay of $4,000, merely for
sparing and rigging a modern
schooner. This seems many times
the value of the schooner described
as an 1865 model.
The writer has often seen affect
OF twenty to thirty 4, 5, 6, and 7
masted schooners lying in Boston
harbor and has counted more than
one hundred and fifty masts. The
value OF these spars can be readily
estimated and no doubt some
mathematical members will CON-
pute it. The writer's estimate is
about 100000. Contrary to what
would seem to be hard and diff
cult operation, the management of
one of these Leviathan's in deep
water is easy and facile, requiring
about four hands to the forward,

mountain lion and bobcat. That

We started before sunrise the
next morning and had the pleas
ure of running a coyote on the
way and almost scarf him to death.
Hanks horse started bucking and
| got laughing SO hard that the
coyote got away. We arrived at
the lake late in the afternoon and
rode around to the west end where
there was an old hut and camped
for the night. It must have been
about three o'clock in the morn
ing when I woke up. The cold
chills were running up and down
my back; my hair stood on end,
and 1 was sweating like a trooper.
/ was just wondering what woke
me up when something snarled
within a few feet of me. All I
could see was two little spots
that looked like two live GOALS
held about four inches apart. I
reached over and awoke Hank
with my foot.
"Wash smatter?" said Hank.
Visitors" said I; 'look over
there towards the other side of the
hut"
"By grab" said he; "a bobcat
or a mountain lion; shoot it'll"
II can't" said I; "my artillery
is hanging on peg on the other
side of the ROOM"
"Well. here goes" said he and
two shots were fred SO rapidly
that they sounded like one.
S There was a scramble on the
roof Immediately afterwards then
all was still.

and in two minutes he was again
snoring. When I woke up next
morning Hank was GUESSING like a
section boss.
"What's wrongP" I asked.
"Look there, you young MAYER
lex, there's your bobcat I shot up
last night"
Doggoned if it wasn't Hanks

he had mended Just before we

from where we lay.
