SLY MONKEYS LOOT
HOUSE NEXT DOOR
One Found Washing Windows,
Other Making Its
Toilet

LYNN, Mass, Nov. 1O.-AIystery
surrounding the long-continued pill
tering of soap, combs. perfumery and
osner articles from the rooms of
dodgers at Al Mulberry street proba-
bly, was cleared up when two mon
lteys, the property of next-door
neighbors, Mrs. Mary Montour, were
found ransacking the house. Each
was in different room when found.
The one which later proved the
more ingenious was washing a win
dow, after methods of its own, which
included knocking of with the back
of a hair brush such spots as did not
yield readily to soap and water. The
other was perched on a dressing case
in front of a mirror applying cold
cream to the tip of his nose with one
paw and pouring cologne on his
head from a bottle with the other
This one escaped through an open
window.
The window-washer darted through
the door and into the hall and manip-
ulated a spring lock so cleverly that
mis- pursuers were at a standstill
until he himself came to their -es-
cue by opening the door and starting
the chase again. Finally he, too, es-
capped through an open window.

armed preacher, no matter what his
faith or creed. is regarded with a certain
degree of respect If his doctrine seems
preposterous, he is often looked upon as
crazy, and as such under the special
protection of supernatural power, what
ever the latter may happen to be in that
particular place.
But let it once be known that the
Christian missionary goes armed, that
he meets force with force and that he
is prepared to offer resistance, then the
natives will become more than ever con-
vinced that he is the associate of the
soldier and of the politician-in one
word, of those who aim at the conquest
OF their territory and at the destruction
Of their independence. 1t is the exist
ence of belief of this kind In the native
mind that not only obstructs missionary
enterprise but likewise renders it so
per1lous in Asia as well as in Africa.
So far as the subject Of suicide to es-
cape torture Is concerned, II is one that
must appeal to any American of the
older generation who happens to recall
white settlers in the Western states and
territories. even as late as twenty and
thirty years ago

the tender mercies of the Chinese in
surgents who were In hot pursuit.
Those means, devised by brave men to
saye those near AMI dear to them or old
friends and valued comrades from ap-
palling torments far worse than death,
do not meet with the approval Of many
people at home.
The idea is roundly condemned by
most religious papers on both sides of
the Atlantic. some even going SO far as
to denounce death inflicted under such
circumstances as "a betrayal of Chris
tendorn." They take the ground that
Christians have no right to commute
IN this fashion lone single one of the
torments that are the appointed measure
OF the martyr In one word. they deny
the Christians right to ease the passage
to eternity for "those loved ones whom
one cannot bear to see suffer"
OF course. under ordinary conditions
of life, such as those that prevail in the
great cities of the United States and in
the central and western countries of Eu-
rope, neither suicide nor yet the infiic-
ton OF death upon others for the pur-
pose Of putting to a quick and merciful
end sufferings certain to result in a fatal
but lingering issue could for one mo-
ment be excused or condoned without
the upheaval of our entire social sys-
tenn and code Of ethics. But the cOndi-
tions are so wholly different In semi or
wholly barbarous countries. such as
China. that IL is difficult to Judge white
men there by the same standard as
those at home.
It Is all very we'll to discuss martyr
dom in an abstract sense and at safe
