King Alexander Teased
Monkey Which Bit HIM.

Paris, Oct. 16--The pet monkey
which King Alexander taught tricks land
which he dressed as woman, bit him
while he was teasing it, according to
a Greed official who has just come
from Athens. The animal has never
shown evidence Of rabbis but it is
being kept under observation.
The Athens government decided to-
day to establish a provisional regency
If Alexander dies. The reactiona ries
insist that Prince Paul, the youngest
son Of former King Constantine, be.
placed on the throne If another king
is necessary. Reports from Greece In
dicate that neither Prince Arthur Of
cannaught nor Pr ince Sixtus Of Bourbon
Pa rma would be welcomed as kings.

The Lesson Is Plain.

"The lesson Of all Of this Is
plain. Even before the war, Europe was
tending to take decreasing
proportion Of our exports. The war has
50 greatly 1essened Europe's, ability to
buy and pay, and so greatly increased
Europe's necessity to sell, that We
must expect hereafter a still further
tndisposition by Europe to buy from US.
" \ I'VE must turn, then, to new mar
kete, and, 1t is not difficult to decide
where these must be found. Before the
war started in Europe, we were buying
from South America, year by year, about
twice as much as We we're selling to -
South America. We were buying from
Asia in about the same proporti tion--in
fact, we were buying rather more than
twice as much from Asia as We were
selling to Asia. From ocean1a Jour
purchases we're approximately twice as
much as were our sales to Oceania;
while in the case Of Africa, our sales
and purchases pretty nearly balanced.

Chicago, Oct, N1e--There was dole
full glumming Of the curbstone population

haps wooden bunk, providing the house

cents.
I'VE had to make a slight advance,'
said the propri etoss. "The price Of
coal and bedbug exterrninator has more
than doubled, and blankets cost four
times what they formerly did. We are

Problem For Yea rs.

nSo far back as 1870, seventy
eight per cent Of all Of our exports
went to Europe. There was talk COM
monty, even then, of opening up new
ma rkets abroad; but 1t produced 50 lit
tie effect that in 1880 about eighty
five per cent Of our exports went to
Europe. In 1890 it was around eighty
per cent, and in 1900 It had dropped to
per cent. In 1910 1t dropped
to sixty-five per cent.
Mn 1919, sixty-four per cent Of
our exports went to Europe; that is,
despite the huge avulsion Of the war,
the proportion Of our exports which =
vent to Europe remained almost abso-
1utely unchanged, In 1919 as compared
with 1910.
rConsidering that the war com
pe1led Europe to turn to US for almost
everything, IT must be apparent that If :
there had been no war the proportion Of
our exports that would have gone to
Europe in the decade from 1910 to 1920
would have been vastly reduced. Either
our exports would have suffered very
greatly or else we would have been COM
pelled to find new ma rkets for them
outside Of Europe.

Chicago, Oct. 1e--'Alabama Rosebud,
1 negress, who murdered Carrie Selby, a
negress in a rooming house, was de-
clared insane by famous altenists, who
also, testified that she can not live
more than five months at the outside.
Because Of this condition she will be
permitted to die in Jail instead of be-
ing hanged.
For the first time in the history
Of the county jail, jury del1oerated-
in the death chamber as to the guilt or
innocence>of a prisoner.
The rRosebud" was brought into the
chamber, strapped to a stretoher. She
was seized with fits Of melancholy and
violent laughter in rapid succession.
Less than three hours before the jury
met in the death chamber to pass upon
the rRosebud'sn case, Frank zagar,
despa rat 9 murderer and an all>round
criminal, had left It to be hanged.

Country Club Robbery
Similar To CarusQ Theft.

New York, Oct. s--1nvest1gators
Of the Sleepy Hollow Country club gem
robbery assert that there is great sim
ilarity between 1t and the theft Of the
Caruso gems last June.
It is the common belief that the
guiding mind in the theft Of $780, 900
worth Of jewels from the boudoir OF MIRA
Caruso is the same which engineered the
present robbery.
William j. Burns, who is in charge
Of the thief chase, announced his be-
lief that the robbery was an "outs1de
job.H He said: :
NJ base my theory that It was an
outside job on the fact that We found
tracks Of at least one person fleeing
from the crime. Marks on the stone
pillars Of the porch on the south side
Of the club house on which the thief
ascended, are an indication that It was
an out side Job"
