The Wise orano.O utano.

Prof. William r. Hornaday, the
noted animal preceptor, cites this In
stance OF ape sagaclty:
II once became quite chummy with
an unframed, Gagged, mcnagerle Orang-
Outang by the name of D0h0ng He
was n son of the jungle and intensely
concerned in matters that came into
his narrow life All that he learned
outside OF his inherited instincts he
learned himself. His cage contained
a number Of horizontal bars attached
to brackets on which he took consld-
cradle solemn exercise. One day he
concluded that the bars ought to come
down. Bracing his feet against the
solid wall Of the cage, he pulled every
bar from Its fastening and flung 1t on
the floor Larger bars were substl-
tuted which the ape valnly tried to
remove. After stralnlng his back In
this futile effort, he walked up and
down in his cage and was apparently
intently studying the situation. Event
ually he procured the crossbar of his
trapeze and using 1t for lever, he
not only prled every horizontal bar
from its brackets, but he likewise
pried the iron bars Of his cage apart
so that he could stick his head
through the opening and satisfy his
curiosity regarding his neighbor in the
adjoining cnge."

FUEL SUPPLIES
ACKNOWLEDGEMENT BY STATE AID.
Observation-Disclosures
SALES TO BE MADE.

State Fuel Administrator W. G..
Bickelhaupt notifies all local county
chairman of the administrator that
the fuel condition in the state. as
well as in other states. is serious, and
advises that not more than 80 days
supply of coal should be demanded
by consumers. He further recon-
mends that coal dealers sell only M
ton to any one person al one time.
This does not apply to abrogate any
contracts entered into between con-
sumers and dealers prior to the is
sue of this order.
Local Chairman Thos. A. Walden
said this morning that Madison was
fortunate in having a fair supply of
fuel. In the smaller towns of the
county there was considerable soft
coal, but in most instances dealers
had been able to get a couple of cars
of hard coal since May /. The result
of this scarcity in the smaller towns
is-to send the consumer to Madison
for hard coal. Instances are cited of
men driving from as far away as Ar
lington to Madison for coal. And
this is not the only instance of out
side demand.
AS to the widely circulated report
that the closing of schools would be
strongly advocated or perhaps en-
forced, as a measure of fuel c~onserva-
ton, Mr.. Walden said that the state
administration had heard nothing of
it. While later stringency in the
supply might lead to more stringent
restrictive measures in the use of
fuel, it is probable, in Mr.. Wadden's
opinion, that some of the other lux
uries would be closed up before the
schools would be affected.
The situation is more serious than
popularity thought, probably. In this
city most people are supplied with
their winters fuel. But while this
condition may be general. there are
many instances both in town and in
the country. where the supplies are
for a limited time only. and they
must have a source of supply.
