MARYLAND PEACHES HURT
by THE SNOW AND FROST

Baltimore. April ga heavy frost
and light snow have caused damage in
the fruit belt of Maryland and Virgin
ia. Dispatches from Western Maryland
report tho most serious damage was
suffered by the peach trees. II was
feared continuation OF the cold spell
and frost last night might prove dis
astrous.
Haserstown growers took the most
serious view, saying peach trees al
ready had been damaged % TO 40 pei
cent.
From Frederick came reports the
peach trees had reached n stage where
It would take a much heavier frost
than that of Thursday night to caus,
severe damage.
From the Virginia, West Virgins
and Cumberland apple belt came re
ports Of grave fears. though the situa.
ton had not reached a disastrou.
stage yet.

MAKE ANIMALS WORK
MOSTLY BY KINDNESS
Deductions Drawn After a Sys-
tematic Study Of the
Subject.

The select committee Of the House
OF Commons inquiring into the condi-
tions under which performing animals
are trained at recent hearing OF evI-
dence, under the craftsmanship of
Brigadier-General Colvin, learned many
things.
Harry Roschez, who stated that he
had been a trainer all his life, gave
evidence as TO. the treatment OF mon
KEYS in animal orchestras. He had
troupe of about twenty monkeys and
the average life of a monkey was nine
or ten years The monkeys we're strapped
to chair during the performance.
The length OF time they were so
strapped was thirty-five or forty min
utes; twenty minutes before the per-
formance, which lasted about twelve
minutes, and again about ten minutes
before they were got downstairs. The
instrument to which the monkey was
strapped was manipulated by a man
underneath the stage. The monkey had
a string tied 10 baton, and this was
for the purpose of not striking too
soon. If he struck too soon it would
spoil the whole thing
ter de Frece the witness said that the
lady who alleged that the monkeys were
pulled by wires 10 make them do the
performance was absolutely mistaken.
1t was perfectly untrue that after the
performance the monkeys were eX-
hausted. 1t was impossible that such a
thing could happen. His greatest DIFF
ficulty was to prevent the monkeys
running around among the ladies on the
stage, and if they were cruelty treated
they would not do that.
Mr.. W. Ballantyne, an amateur con-
Juror, produced two contrivances which
he had purchased that morning to show
that they were on sale. One was 9
collapsible cage which, on being pressed
collapsed and the bird inside went uI
the performer sleeve. He thought thai
must involve a certain amount OF
crushing to the bird. He SAID that the
tricks could have been done with DUN
my birds He produced another appa-
ratus for the purpose of making the
bird vanish. He then produced two
birds, one of which had been trimmed
to prevent it from flying, and anothc
which had not been trimmed. The un
trimmed nlTu escaped from his HduO
and flew about the room, causing con
, siderable excitement and amusement.
The witness said he did not know
, how the trimming was done but the bill
was trimmed so that the bird coulC
not bite.
II. Rey, who kept a training estab
lishment at Brixton for six years, ha'
trained all sorts of animals-ions, Ii
gers. bears and wolves. At one tim
he had singing bear. One of hi
9 tasks was making lion cub go on
horses back There was nothing in il
but they made the people believe ther
was.
, Mr. Jack Thompson, a composer an
producer of musical acts, said that a
the Palace Theatre, Oldham, a chin
= panzee-not Consul-was performing
+ They. heard the animal screaming be
n hind the scenes and what appeared t
o be blows He first thought it was
man and woman who We're there, bI
on inquiry he found it was the monke
which was being i'll treated.
