HOW MONKEYS ARE CAUGHT.
One ofthe Peculiar Methods Adopted by
Natives.
In capturing monkeys, it is said
that their curiosity is the thing that
makes them an easy prey. Nearly all
of the monkeys tfiat we see in this
country come from Gornona, a little
village situated a short distance from
_. “the. Panama railroad.
The inhabitants of this district are
mostly native negroes, for few white
men could bear the climate. The
Whole region is marshy, and covered
with tropical vegetation. . At night
there arises a thick vapor laden with
fever, which hangs over the woods
like. a cloud.
This region of woods is the para-
dise of the monkeys. They travel in
froops, led by an older monkey. When
information that
the “travelling monkey troops” arc-
. near The village they go to’ the woods
in crowds to chase them.
Their plan is very simple, They cut
a hole in a cocoanut large enough f01
a. monkey’s paw to enter. The not is
then hollowed out, and a piece of
sugar is placed in it. A piece of
string is then fastened to it, and it IS
placed in the road of the approaching
monkeys.
It is well known that monkeys are
very inquisitive. When they see the
'co'coanust in the grass they'hurry to
examine it. It does not take them
long to find out that the inner part
_ > One of the
boldest and greedies-t sticks a paw in-
-to the nut to get the sugar, ”and grasps
it as firmly as he can. But his fist is
so large that he cannot draw it out of
with the sugar, to
which lie holds fast, cost what it
may.
Te natives now pull the string un-
til nut and monkey arrive in the vi-
cinity of their ambuscade. In the
meantime the other monkeys wonder
what is the matter with their com-
rade. They hurry to see where he is
being pulled to, with his paw in the
cocoanut. They crowd around him
cliatfe'ring‘ and gesticulating, and the
natives, who have a large not ready,
cast it over them, and before they
know it all are prisoners. They are
sold to the W DIE? the Panama
railroad, and reach the North Ameri-
can markets through commercial
dealers.—Philadelphia Times.
A GENTLE PROMPTER.
One of the Many Good Stories That lIIin-
islers H ave To Relate.
Ministers generally have a stock of
good wedding stories, but a rat-her odd
little incident took place at an Epis-
copal rectory in this city not l’ong ago,
says the Cleveland Plain Dealer.
It was a. very stormy nigh-t and the
bride and groom arrived alone about
9 o’clock, having’fihad to walk a long
way against the storm, and the poor
little bride was almost worn out with
fatigue and nervousness.
After a few words explaining the
service to the mimic, the minister put
on his surplice and began the cere-
mony. All went beautifully until the
question, “Eliza, will you have this
man to be your wedded husband, etc.,”
came upon. the scene. The minister
read it through with his most‘ kindly
and fatherly air, but when he finished
the bride was dumvbi—not a word,
could he get out: of .her. The long
question was repeated, the minister’s
voice taking ‘on a most insinuating
rise toward its end, but still there was
silence.
Before the groom had seemed flus-
tered, but his feelings then were noth-
ing to what they appeared to be at
the second halt. ' '_
With an admonishing kick that
reached to the rector and made him
ruli""his unlucky shine, the irate bride-
groom announc-ed in a loud stage
whisper, “Darn you, Liza, why don’t
you speak up and tell him yes?”
And wonders will never cease, for
even after such an exhibition of her
future lord and master’s temper, ’Liza
spoke, and all she said was “yes.”
Seed Corn 3.000 Years Old.
Three or four years since an Indian
mound in Arkansas was being exca-
vated, when an earthen jar was found
hermetically sealed that contained a
small quantity of grains of Indian
corn”. Some of «the grains were the
next year planted in- ,Missourl, and
several bushels raised. 0n the top of
_' the mound from which the jar was
dug‘out, a: large tree four feet in dia-
meter was growing. and it is thought
the corn lay buried about 3,000 years.
’Squire James L. Neal, one of our
most prosperous and progressive farm-
ers, sent and procured a small quan-
tity 'of the darn, paying over two
cents a grain. This he planted last
year, but the yield was small, on ac-
count of the drought. - He saved
enough, however, to get in a good
patch this year. He has used it for
_ roasting ears, and says it is the best “
he ever had. The cars are not large,
but grow two to three on a single
stalk. The one thing peculiar ,about
this, corn is its color, or rather colors.
0n the'same cob‘ are grains of differ-
ent colors, and in the row you can
find an ear that is white, another
blood red, one salmon colored and an-
other perfectly ‘black.-Harrodsburg

Five New Cases of Bubonic Plague
. Since the Deathcf Barisch.
STRICT PREGAU'I‘ION 11er
The Cultivation of the _I’lugue. Barisch
‘ and His Wife Moved Freely in Public
‘ Before the Latter ‘ Saw a Physician.
Anti Semitic Press Accuse flebrewv,
and Riots May Result.
London. Oct. 24.—-The outbreak of bu-
bonic plague at Vienna due to the ex-
periments in Professor Nothnagle’s
bacteriological establishment in the
cultivation of the plague bacillus, has
spread terror at the Austrial capital.
Five cases, in addition to that of the
late Herr Barisch, the assistant in the *
establishment who contracted the bu-
bonic plague, while cultivating the bac~
illus, have now occurred.
They are two nurses in the laboratory
another of the assistants, Herr Bar-
isch’s wife, and Dr. Mueller, the phy-
sician who attended Herr Barisch. The
last sacrament of the Roman Cathoh‘c
church Were administered to the latter
and to one of the nurses by a priest
through a window of the plague cell-s.
DrI Mueller was considered an autho-
rity on the plague, having been to
Bombay for the purpose of studying it
on the spot, and he survived all the
dangers there.
The disease at Vienna has assumed
a pneumonic form. There are no boils,
but each case is accompanied by high
fever and blood spitting.
Extraordinary precautions have now
been taken to prevent an epidemic. The
plague patients lie in an isolated build-
ing, attended by Dr. Pooch, a volunteer
physician and by Sisters of Charity.
They are surrounded by a rope, across
which nobody is allowed to pass.
Dr. Pooch writes the prescriptions
and fastens them to the window pane.
The doctors outside read them and
have them made up. Then the pre-
scriptions are placed on the window
ledge, whence they are removed by
those inside.
Food is conveyed to the patients and
their attendants by Sisters of Charity
in a similar manner, and the nurses
furnish accounts by telephone of all
changes in the patients’ condition.
Every person who came in contact
with Herr Barisch, principally the
hospital attendants, has been'isolated.
Some of them resisted and others tried
to escape, but were captured and all
were locked up.
It is feared, however. that the pre-
cautions were taken too late. Herr
Barisch was ill for three days before
he saw a doctor, during which time
he lived with his wife and visited wine
shops.
The wife, who has now developed
suspicious symptoms, visited friends,
rode in public omnibuses and came in
contact with dozens of persons at her -
' spirituous and intoxrcating liquors,la1e,
husband’s funeral.
The excitement in mndical circles is
tremendous. The well known chemist,
Professor Hofrotz Ludwig, has made
a pathetic speech, during which he ex-
pressed the hope the. the doctors of
Vienna will prove themselves equal to
r~ll emergencies. This reveals the fact
that it isthe opinion of medical men
at the Austrian capital that the plague
is likely to spread in that city.
Another significant indication'of this
apprehension is found in the fact that
a temporary hospital consisting of sev-
eral detached sheds was hastily erect-
ed during last night behind the Infec-
tions Hospital.
One hundred men worked by torch-
light there in order to complete it as
quickly as possible. ‘ .
A painful feature of the Viennese sit—
uation is the unscrupulous attitude of
the anti-Semitic newspapers, which are
accusing the Jewish doctors of bring-
ing the plague to Vienna.
It is feared that this appeal to the
Worst passions of the mob will lead to
plague riots against the Jews if the
disease spreads.
Chili and A 'rgentina.
Valparaiso, Chili, via Galveston, Tex.,
Oct. 24.—-The 'Chilian and Argentine
governments have arrived at the fol—
lowing agreement:
The arbitration commission will be
composed of five members of each
country, who will assemble at Buenos
IAyres to solve the Puma-Atacama pro—
blem. .
' The discussion must be finished in a.
few sittings. In case of disagreement
one of the foreign ministers resident at
Buenos Ayres will be requested defi-
nitely to solve the matter.
It is said that Argentine proposed the
Uruguayan or Italian minister and that
Chili proposed United States Minister
Buchanan. -
Spain Faces. Another Crisis.
-Madrid, Oct. 24.—The newspapers
here regard a ministerial crisis as im—
minent and they urge the ministers to
sink their differences, inyiew of the
many difficulties of Spain. .
Several of the papers violently at-i
tack Senor Gamazo, the minister of.
public instruction,.for resigning and
thus complicating the situation.
Speculation was caused by the hold-
ing of a long conference between the
queen regent and General Polavieja,
former governor of Cubaeand of the
Philippines.
Russia the Ally of France
St. Petersburg, Oct. 24.—Commc—'nting
upon the recent speech of the British
chancellor of the exchequer, Sir Mich-
ael Hicks-Beach, the “Novoe Vremya”
charges the chancellor with makinga
violent attack upon the rench govern-
ment and says he failed to bear in
mind that France has in Russia “an
ally resol've‘d to support her in the Fa--
shoda. question, in view of the full soli-
darity of their interests.”
Son Born to the nut-libs: of Aosta
Turin, Oct. 24.—The Duchess of Aosta
Wife of Prince Emanuelo Filiberto,'the
Duke of Aosta, eldest nephew of the
King of Italy, was safely delivered of
a son Saturday. . ,
The Duchess was formerly Princess
Helena of Orleans, daughter of the late
Count of Paris. She was married to
the kaeof Aosta on June 25, in the
year 1895. ' .. ’ '
