in the street. The COW, after she
knocked down a number of persons,

In her flight through the glass her
hip bones were too big for the door
frame, and she fell with her forequar-

policemen held the crowd in check.
Nobody knows where the COW came

LIQUOR KILLS APES GERMS
Physicians Think That's Why
Inoculated Monkey Lives.
fBy Telegraph TO The TrIbune :

Baltimore. oct l3-The scientists at
Johns Hopkins Hospital who are watch
ing the Hunterian laboratory experiment
with Woodrow Maccus Rhesus. a monkey.
are astonished that Woodrow should be
alive to-day with the germs Of rare
disease In his blood-germs that killed OFF
five brother simians shortly after they
were inoculated.
Woodrow has Knocked out the germ
theory to certain degree. To-day he
sat up in his cage eating bananas In live
~ fashion and oblivious TO the presence
of the germs. which have caused the
death Of four patients at the hospital.
one theory In explanation Of the
monkey remaining alive is that the in
toxicants he imbibed when he recently
disappeared and was taken on tour of
saloons may have eliminated the germs.

Tells Own Experiences.

In speaking Of events in the history Of

Permit me to tell Of two experiences
OF my own connected with your village.
About fifty years ago | delivered an adj

Bible Society. Among those in attend
ance was the Rev Or. Phraner. for a
half century pastor Of one Of your
churches. and who passed away recently,
venerable and universally respected, in
his ninety-odd years OF age.
Some time after the meeting OF the
Bible Society he called upon me at my
home in Peekskill and suggested that as
young lawyer | should move 10 Sing
Sing and make II my home. The rea son
he gave was that the local lawyers were

and several of them, especially the late
Francis Larkin, were very able and very
honorable members OF the bar.
when | first ran for the lower house
of our New York Legislature, fifty-two
years ago, / was told that unless I Sc

and afterward this gentleman insisted
upon adjourning TO the American House
for refreshments.
AT that time temperance was I'M
known. II was an insult TO refuse a
drink. Most of the public men whom
met in the Legislature died from alcohol

this prominent politician. So | arranged
with the bartender to give me mint juleps

while my host INDUCED in his favorite
whiskey.
AT midnight | had defed microbes and

Sing Sing water, and he about the same

All went well with the movement OF
the Young warriors toward Ossining until
the process of dsembarking began at the
wharf there. The night pelore '"o

Then. with three blasts from the village
fire whistle, the parade was off. General
Edwin A. McAlpin. executive head OF the
celebration. was at the head as grahu
marshal. General McAlpin is also chiei
scout OF the American Boy Scouts so that
tho Youngsters were placed in the leading
division with him. In honor of the fact
that he is a Scotchman, the scouts from
the Prospect Park and Hamilton avenue
districts In Brooklyn wore Highland BON
nets and sashes.
A feature that made them look reaoE
70 ouell anything from street riots 10 the
troubles in Mexico was the fact that the
Second Battalion of the naval miii''a III

field p,eces. with a detachment of militia

Ossining's older citizens remember
former village celebration In honor OF
Lincoln that stands out on the pages of
town history. This was in 1865 when the
Presidents funeral train passed through
the village The day was observed with
parade. and over the railroad tracks
there was built great memorial arch,
which members of the funeral party de-
clared TO be one of the Pandsomeet raised
in honor of the dead President anywhere
along the route OF the train. This and
the observance OF the centennial OF
American liberty in 1876 are the two
great celebrations I'm village history be-
side which yesterdays took its place.
The sixth division of the parade was
completed by a number of other special
features, also OF historical interest. one
was thu ancient stage coach of the old
Bears Head Tavern and another coach
said TO be more than hundred years
old.
