THE MONKEYS TAIL.

n n oNKEYs, you know. did not
IVA always have the long tails
VN they have nowadays. No, in

tails were just short, stubby little
things, very much like the kind most
fox terriers have. ..-
There was one monkey especially
Jocko he was called-whose tail was
even shorter than the other monkeys.
Joclso was a big brown monkey, and
stronger than all the rest. But he did
not like having tail shorter than the
others. It. worried him, and everywhere
he went he kept wishing that his tall
would get long. He did not want II

mach longer-almost yard long, in
But no matter how hard Jocko wished
that his tail would grow, It never did.
He just had the same stumpy tail, and
everywhere he went all the other mon
short tail" Of course, it made Jocko
very mad to be called this, but he could
not do anything but pretend not to
hear.

FOR TIMES WOMEN WHO WANT TO KNOW
What Is Seen in The Shops
BY THE SHOPPER.

Luncheon table sets that are very
pretty for bungalow use, are being
sold at an F street department store
for the small price of $3.50, or a more
expensive set for $40. These sets are
embroidered In colors; some I'm soft
greens, others have u pattern which is
IA SSe dsssn of T9rs9d
made for a round table with plate and
tumbler mats TO match. These sets
would make beautiful wedding presents
for the June bride, or used for lunch
con given in her favor would be quite
unique as we'll as attractive.
Little blouses that are chic, cool, and
comfortable, are to be had at a G street
department store, near Eleventh street.
They are made OF dainty white lawn or
sheer batiste and trimmed in lace or
embroidery. Some have the low or
rounded necks that seem necessary in
the hot weather; others have the high
collars made of lace. One waist had a
sailor collar made OF embroidery which
was quite effective. These in any style
were marked only 81. Another smart
blouse that this store offered was made
Of tan chiffon cloth with heavy mae
rame collar and cuffs to match. A tall
ored tie of cardinal velvet finished tho
sailor collar and the front of the waist
was trimmed in tiny buttons to match
the tie, in groups of three. This waist
was marked $3.50, but had one great ad-
vantage, as the collar and Cuff set
could be easily used on any other waist
or coat.
The new whipcord suits seemed to
need something in the way OF shoes to
match them; q need which a depart
ment store near Market place has sup
piled, In a colonial slipper made of
striped material Ike the cloth These
come In the combinations of black and
white, gray and white and brown and

touch to them, the ones to match the
black combinations being made of sill
yer and the tan pumps boasting brass
buckles. These shoes are marked at IS.
Silk gloves to match any gown are
shown at an F street store, near Elev-
cnth, for $1,50 pair. These come in

BA2TISTS WILL
HAVE BIG DAY

The Baptist excursion up the
Hudson river to West Point, will
take place tomorrow, whatever the
weather conditions. And, judging
from the experience of many other
such excursions, all who go will
have a fine time, at any rate. Moth
ing more unpropitious than the
weather conditions at the start last
year could have been imagined;
nothing finer could have been asked
of the weather man before the Sir
ius'' had gone the length Of the
Staten Island Sound. The forecast
for tomorrow is for in many re-
spects an ideal day for a water ex-
cursion-a sunless, rainless day,
with light breezes. One may sit on
the top deck all day without any
danger OF the sun. The light breeze
will drive away the heat. The mag
nilcent scenery OF the Highlands
will stand out perfect.
Outside OF a few tickets in the
hands of those individuals who have
not yet handed in their returns. the
only places In Perth Amboy where
tickets may be procured today are at
Barnekov g. PETE, 335 State street;
William Il. McCready, 1876 Smith
street, and George Therklesen, 292
High street. Tickets will be with
drawn from these places tonight,
and afterwards be on sale tomorrow
morning at the corner of Smith and

Some of these will be at the desig-
mated corner as early as 1880. The

respectively in the classic Marathon
Though the glory Of the occasion
rested with the British colony, there
was honor for America In the result of

South Paterson boy, who was sent here
by the subscription of his fellow citt-
zens, finished In third place, less than
a minute behind Gttshaw. Sockalexis,

fourth, and other sturdy runners from
the United States supplied eight men
In the first fifteen to finish the Cruel
ing contest in front of the royal box in

The distance of the race was about
twenty-five miles, considerably shorter
than the other Olympic M%arathons,
where an effort was made to retain the
distance over which the Greek soldier
travelled to deliver the news at Athens
the BATTLE of Marathon. Thus 1t was
that the winner easily broke the Olym-
pic record, finishing In 2 hours SO min
utes 80 seconds against the 2 hours 81

OCEAN GROVE PEOPLE TO
HELP MAKE UP BUDGET,
(Fron tAs NEWS corre.,osdent.)

Trenton, July 15:-For the first
time In the history of Ocean Grove
the lessees of property in the town
are to have a say about the annual
expenditures for the town govern
ment. At a meeting of the Ocean
Grove Camp Meeting Association on
August 5, twenty-six lessees will be
elected to act with the association
in preparing the annual budget. This
will be an annual plan hereafter, In
stead Of the association arbitrarily
preparing the budget without con-
sulting the lessees. The change is
the result of the many bitter fights
in the legislature for the incorpora-
ton of Ocean Grove as a borough.
The borough bills have always been
defeated but the agitations and the
rising public opinion has compelled
the Ocean Grove Association to grant
to the lessees the concession of rep
resentatien when the annual expen-
ditures are prepared. Ocean Grove
is peculiar in that land cannot be
purchased outright, but must be
leased from the association, and In
this way the association maintains
absolute control over the place.
