Potato Blooms.

]. L. Holt, who resides in the vicinity
of the covered bridge en- route to Mount
Zion, was surprised the other day when
he found some of his sweet potato vines
blooming. This was very unusual, in
fact Mr.. Holt said that he had never
before seen blooms on potato vines, nor
had he heard of such thing. He had
a vine pulled to bring with him, but for
got it Mr.. Holt is one OF the best citi-
zens of his community, and the fact that
his potatoes vines are blooming will not
cause his neighbors to doubt his veracity

A BabOOn Hero

about half year old. had been left behind.
1t shrieked loudly as the dogs rushed towards
it, but succeeded in gaining the top Of a rock
before they had arrived Our dogs placed
the mseves cleverly, so as to cut off its re-
treat. and we thought that they would catch
it, That was not to be. Proudly and with
dignity, without hurrying in the least or pay
ing any heed to us, an old male stepped down
fIom the security of the rocks towards the
hard pressed little one, walked towards the
dogs without betraying the slightest fear, held
them in check with gfaHces gestures, and
sounds that seemed almost like ineligible
speech, slowly climbed the rock, picked up
the baby monkey and retreated with it before
we could reach the spot and without the
slightest attempt to prevent him on the part
of the dogs. While the patriarch of the troop
performed this brave and unselfish deed the
other members densely crowded on the cliff
uttered sounds which had never before heard
from baboons. Old and Young, males and fe-
males, roared, screeched, snarled and beloved
all together, SO that one would have thought
that they were struggling with leopards or
other dangerous beasts. | learned later that
this was the monkeys battle cry"
The Washington herald., 1911-07-02

The German naturalist, Brehm, in compar-
ing the monkeys of the Old World with the
marmosets and monkeys of the New, says that
the movements of Old World monkeys are free
and unfettered, compared with the clinging-
and creeping of their American cousins Their
character is shown by their conduct in the
presence of danger and by the awe which they
inspire in hunting dogs. Herr Brehm tells
this story of an adventure with balloons in
Africa. Our dogs, beautiful slender grey
hounds, accustomed to fight successfully with
hyenas and other beasts of prey, rushed to-
wards the balloons, which, from a distance,
looked more like beasts of prey than hike
monkeys, and drove them hastily up the prec-
ipices to right and left. But only the fe-
males took to fight; the males turned to face
the dogs, growled, beat the ground with their
hands, opened their mouths wide, showed their
glittering teeth, and looked their adversaries
SO furiously and maliciousiy that the hounds,
battle-hardened and usually bold. shrank back
discomfted and almost tImidly sought safety
beside u.s. Before we. had succeeded IN stir
ring them up to show fight the position of the
monkeys had changed considerably, and when
the dogs charged a second time nearly all the
herd were in safety But one little monkey,

"This is the man." explained Whit
ton, with whom you have been in correspond
ence; the man who brought Tim Baker up at
an expense of five hundred dollars; the man
who could not imagine where the boy had
gone to. You have Just heard of his exploits,
and here he is to speak for himself" .
With this, Whitton stepped to one SIDE
and left Abner standing in the centre Of the
room, looking as if he had just heard his
death sentence pronounced.
Tim gazed at Abner with wideopen eyes. A
faint glimmer of the mystery began to dawn
upon him and his breath came short and fast
Burt was scarcely less excited, with the
exception that he evinced a strong dsposi-
ton tc commit personal assault upon the
old rcprobate.
Paul Austin was simply bewildered, and
Tiny was in her usual state of mild surprise.
1t took q great deal to excite Tiny.
The only persons who preserved their equa-
ninity were Tiny's father and mother and
Wilton. 1t was evident that the meeting
was not a surprise to them.

The ineffectiveness of Wilkinson and

Railroaders. s to o.
While the score indicates a loose
game. the game was fast throughout.
IS there were only three errors made
on both sides. The Railroaders played
a beautiful game in the Aeld. but were
weak in batting. Wilkinson struck
out seventeen of the Railroadcrs and
only allowed two hits. while Cox, for
the Railroaders. allowed eleven hits
and struck out only two men
