POWERFUL CRAFT SEEN AT
WORCESTER
MYSTERIOUS AERIAL MONSTER
sTARTLEs THOUSANDS
Aeronaut Hovers at Height of Two
Thousand Feet Above Houses
and Cuts Circles Among
Clouds
Associated Pressl


w ORCESTER, Mass, Dec. 22.-Fly-
wv ing at a speed of from thirty
to forty miles an hour, a mys-
terious airship tonight appeared over
Worcester, lowered over the city a few
minutes, disappeared for about two
hours and then returned to cut four
circles above the city, using a search
light of tremendous power.
Thousands of watchers thronged the
streets. The airship remained over the
city for fifteen minutes, all the time
at a height that most observers set
at about 1000 feet, too far to enable
even the shape to be seen.
The glaring rays of its great search
light, however, were sharply defined.
The dark mass of the ship could be
dimly seen.
Aviator Missing
At the time of the airship's visit
Wallace E. Tillinghast, a Worcester
man who recently claimed to have in
vented a marvellous aeroplane in which
he said he had jOurneyed to New York
and returned by way of Boston, was
absent from his home and could not
be found.
The visitor from the clouds was first
sighted over Marlborough at 500 p. m.
The sixteen miles between this city
and Marlborough were covered in 80
minutes
Coming up from the southeast, the
sky voyager veered to the west, re-
mained in sight few minutes and
then disappeared to the northwest.
In five minutes the searchlight was
again seen. glowing in the darkness
like monster star and the ship came
up, -hovered over the city a short time
and disappeared to the southeast.
Two hours later an eager shout from
the waiting crowds announced its re-
turn. 1t circled and disappeared, final
ly heading first to the south and then
TO the east.

The flood caught the taxpayers
who had not paid the second INSTALL

until the last moment before doing
so, in an unpleasant predicament. At
ter November 80, fifteen per cent in

THE POULTRY INDUSTRY.

1t is fact not generally known that
Of all farm products poultry stands
fifth in value. 1t is estimated that
the cash derived from the sale Of poul-
try and eggs amounts to Gif d billion
dollars annually. 1t is believed that
this amount is being rapidly Increased
zach wear, due - the fact that farmers
are beginning to realize the profits
there are in a well cared for flock of
hens. When al. poultry keepers fully
appreciate how easy it is to increase
the productiveness of their fowls, it
is fair to assume that this branch of
farm products will advance well toward
first place in relative value. The fol
lowing letter from c. ID. Chatterton of
West Brooklield, VT, indicates the way
I'm which some are increasing their
egg production. He says: Il have used

INSTINCT AND REASON.
An Interesting Illustration Of the Two
Traits Of Monkeys.

An illustration showing the differ
ence between instinct ana reason IL
monkeys came uuder the observation
of David starr Jordan, the famous
naturalist. At one time he had two
lively Macacus monkeys called Bot
and .Iocko. These We're nut aud rruir
eating monkeys aud instinctively knew
just how to crack uuts and peel fruits
AT the same time he had "A baby mon
key. Mono. OF Il kind that had the egt
eating instinct. But Mono had nevel
yet seen an egg.
TO each OF the three monkeys DR.
Jordan gave an egg. the first that any
of them had ever seen. Baby Muuo
descended from egg eating ancestors
handled his egg with all the Inherited
expertness of long developed III
stinct He cracked 1t with his upper
teeth. making "A hole In II. aud sucked
out all its substance. Then, holding
the eggshell up to the light and see
ing there was no longer anything in
1t, he threw it away. All this he die
mecha nically, automatically aud jusl
as we'll with the first egg as with any
other he afterward had And all egg
since given him he has treated in the
same way.
The monkey Bob took his egg for
some kind of nut. He broke 1t witt
his teeth and tried to pull Off the shell
When the inside ran out and fell OF
the ground he looked at II for a mo
ment In bewilderment. then with bott
hands scooped up the yoIk and tht
sand mixed with 1t and swallowed it
Then he stuffed the shell into hi
mouth. This act was not instinct; Il
was reason He was not familiar by
inherited instinct with eggs. He woul(
handle one better Uext time. however
Reason very often makes mistakes a
first. but when it Is trained It become:
a means far more valuable and power
fui than instinct.
The third monkey. .IockO. tried tt

that Bob did; but. not liking the taste
