The monkey that is being kept in
the basement of the city hall until the
weather warns up sufficiently to take
her to Sibley park, has cut up many
monkey shines there. She saw one OF
the employees turn Oh the incandescent
light and thought she could do the
same, but not succeeding she gave the
lamp smash, with her paw and sent
it against the ceiling, where it broke
to pieces. l
: The monkey, whose name is Jennie.
found a five gallon oil can full of
kerosene in the basement, within reach
of her chain, and sma shed the strong
wooden crate in which it was standing
and tipped the can over and spilled
the old. The little animal sleeps on
one of the asbestos covered steam
pipes, for warmth, just over the door
leading to the boiler room, and Janitor
Thompson has to keep one eye out
when he goes under, for fear hat the
monkey will drop on him. One day
the monkey caught him and climbed
to his shoulder and set him trembling
in every joint for fear of what might
happen, but she meant no harm and
soon let the janitor out of his misery.
Jennie rules the rooSt in the base
ment. The city employees have learned
TO respect her teeth, and do not tease
her unless they are sure that they are
beyond the reach of her chain.
