Monkey* •« bold t-inner*.
Capt. E..Moss of tho Transvaal tells
tho following story of the monkeys
who work for him In the mines:
"I have 24 monkeys,” said he, "cm-
ployed about my mines. They do tho
work of seven able-bodied men. In
many instances they lend valuable aid
where a man is useless. They gather
up the small pieces of quartz that
would be passed unnoticed by tho
workingmen, and pile luem up In lit¬
tle heaps tnat can enBlIy he gathered
up In a shovel and thrown into a milt.
They work just as they please, some¬
times going down Into the mines when
they have cleared up nil the debris on
the outsides. They live and work to-
gelhcr without quarreling any more
than men do. They arc quite method-
leal In the.!' habits, nnd go to work
and finish up In the same manner as
human beings would do under similar
circumstances. It Is very interesting
to watch them at their labor, and see
how carefully they look after every
detail of the work they attempt. They
clean up about the mines, follow the
wheelbarrows and carts used on min¬
ing and pick up everything that falls
off on the way.”—Tlt-BIts.

The flulldog ft fiood
No member of the ganino family has
been more persistently maligned than
the bulldog. Writers who have no
iutiinaU knowledge of the dog and
his ntti ilmt.es have described him as
iilupidly ferocious, and illustrators
have pictured him os a sort of semt-
wild beast, till the general public has
conic to look upon him as dangerous.
“(>ivo a dog a bad name,” is an old
saw, and perhaps a true one, lmt
when it is applied to tho bulldog it is
manifestly uujust. Writers, too, linvo
fallen into gravo error in claiming
Ihnt ction' the bulldog is deficient iiotonlyin
alT but in intelligence.
No greater proof of tho falsity of
the latter could he given than was
witnessed at tho Into Woutnunstei'

Colonel Shults exhibited iiis trained

ing nil aorta of wonderful feats, esneo-

od to reproduce the phenomena of
terrestrial magnetism and the secular
variations ol’ the compass and dipping
needle. One terrestrial globe is made
to revolve within another. Tho inner
globe is wound with insulated copper

covered with thin sheet iron, to give
a difference between the magnetism
land nnd water. Insulated rings
revolving within the axis carry copper
brushes, which causa electric currents
to pass around the surface of the
ffiobes. A differential motion is im¬
parted to the inner globe by toothed an ar¬
rangement of epicyoloidal

reproduction of the principal phenom¬
ena of terrestrial magnetism, nnd tho
changes that have taken place dur¬

Cooking With Sun Hays.
The various experiments made with
aolar engines l*y the French in Algeria,
where the sun is never overclouded
and shines with great power, have
been attended iu some instances with
marked s access. Tho best apparatus
is stated to he a simple arrangement
of boiler aud eoueavo mirror, tho
stekin generated being condensed in a
coiledtube surrounded by water, this
being intended merely for distilling
" ater . But ill India an inventor h:u
contrived some machines with which
more varied results are accomplished,
() uo 0 f these is what is termed a cook-
ing box made of wood aud lined with
reflecGug mirrors, at the bottom of
the box being a small copper boiler
urea with glass to retain the bent
of Wia rays concentrated by the mirrors
upon the boiler. In this contrivance
affy sort of food may tie quickly cooked,
the result being a stew or boil if the
steam is retained, or if allowed to es-
cape it is a bake. Tho lu at with this
device may be augmented indefinitely
by increasing the diameter of the box.

chimneys should "no” be waaheik but
should be cleaned with a doth dipped
in alcohol. If you want to keep lamp-
wicks from smoking, soak them in
strong vinegar and dry thoroughly bo-

An excellent method of cleauing
lamp burners is to take an ounce of
washing soda and dissolve it ill a quart
of rain water. In this boil tho lamp
burners for ten minutes, after which
take n cotton cloth nnd wipe them off;
they will bo as good as new. This
should lie done once every month to
remove tho carbon which collects
naturally. Tho brass trimmings of a
lamp can bo prevented from tarnish-
ing by rubbing them with salt moist-
ened with a little vinegar.
Lamp chimneys may be rendered
durable by placing them in a saucepan
of cold water and gradually bringing
it to boiling heat. Cave must be taken
that the chimneys do not touch each
other during tho bubbling up of tho
liquid. Another method is to put
them into a very hot oven and let
them cool gradually.
To economize Jampwicks may bo

A special from Little Lock. Ark,
«uys: Trouble has broken out again
between the blacks and the whites in
Lonoke county, and a race war is
threatened which, when once started,
may outrival anything of the kind
witnessed in the south in years. Tho
troubla Jins been brewing for along
tiino, mud the feeding between tho
ril ce« is so bitter that the first spark
will online an explosion.
The ce nter of trouble is tho town of
Lonoke, a place of some 2,001) inhnb-
i touts, about one-half of whom are
negroes.
A portion of the white people of that
town have been trying to rid the place
of the negroes, and clashes have been
f| C ,|U(, n t jn the past. Several negroes
bavo boen killed by whiU;s and others
j iave j )noa driven out of town.
It is said’ that there has been little
rcH i„taiin« upon the part of the blacks
tUi# time, but they are now or-
g an j K i n g fv,r the purpose of mutual
protection, and tho next clash is almost
certain to produce serious results.

The following written notice, bearing
date of ,/unitary 23d, has been tacked
on the door of nearly every negro house
in tho town of Lonoke and on many
cabins in the surrounding country: ‘
“You aro hereby notified that you nnd ,

If >’ 011 don’t go you will bo

carcases filled with load.”
The notices are not signed, but are
adorned with a skull and cross bones.
Notices have aldo been posted on the
doors of negro schools warning tho
teachers to close the schools and get
ont of the county without delay. Many
of the negroes have taken their fam-
ilies.and all of their belongings and
moved ont of the county, and schools
have been closed. But a largo number
have avowed their purpose of remain-
ing in their homes and defending them
at the cost of their lives, if necessary.
One prominent colored ma t in an open
letter to his race advised the colored
men of Lonoke to supply themselves
with arms and be prepared to protect
themselves.

voted for Judge McConias for senator

He emphatically declared that un¬

because, should he give any of them

Sen In Flower*.’
p rofeSBOr Kenjiro Fujit of the Im-
pf , rial University of Toklo, Japan, haa
recen dy putitinhed a paper In the pro-
ceedings of that Institution explainng
the law that determines the male or
Ihe female sex In flowers. His ob-
servatlons and experiments have been
made on the prevailing pine tree ol
tj, a t C ountrv. He gives, in full detail,
the results of many observations and
comes to the following conclusions:
That the sex of the flowers is uncle*
termlned until a certain stnge of their
n flower that „ , would ..
growth, and that a
otherwise develop into a male has a
tendency to become a female when lo-
cal increase of nourishment takes
place at a certain stage, or during cer-
tain stages of its development. It Is
very Interesting to note that this dls-
covery as to the law regulating the
rcprodtiction of the separate sexes in
flowers was first made and reported
some quarter of a century ago by Prof,
Thomas Meehan: and the paper read
by him before the American Society
for the Advancement of Science ap-
pears in the printed proceedings of the
Salem meeting. The doctrine met with
some opposition at that time, Prof.
Agassiz especially making a powerful
protest against the sentiments of the
P»P«- But it has since been adopted
as a demonstration and » the, ae-
cepted theory of sex in the article on
this subject in the ninth edition of
tke “Encyclopedia Britannica.” The
American view, differs slightly from
that of the Japanese scientist in this,
tkat wk )le the latter seems to regard
the .. male , characteristics . . ,____ as the normal
condition, the accident of abundant nu-
trition only causing an advance of fe-
male characteristics, 'the former re-
gards the female as the normal condi-
tion, and the cutting of the fall sup-
pl y brings about the male flowers.
Again, the American exponent not on-
ly requires an abundant supply of nu¬
trition to Insure female uowers, but a
high vital power in the nucleus to
avail itself of the nutrition. Prof.
Fuji! , shows by his paper that he is in
ignorance of the occupancy of the
field before him by the American phi
losopher; and the fact gives additional
interest to the paper in this respect,
that so nearly the same results should
follow observations made in such
" iddy separated quarters of the globe.

Some recruits were being drilled at
Aldershot by a very impatient cavalry
drill sergeant. After about an hour of
hard drilling at the sword exercise, the
sergeant gave the order, “Stand at
z
No sooner were the men standing at
ease than the sergeant began to com¬
plain of their attitudes, and wound up
by saying: “Why, you fellows are like
a lot of dummies. I can get smarter
soldiers than you at a shilling per box.”
After about a minute’s hesitation one
of the recruits remarked: “I suppose
there would be sergeants among
them?”—Answers.

TO COTTON PLANTERS.
For six years past my Cotton has stood at the
front, as tho earliest and most productive
Cotton grown in this country. My claims are
not idle boosts, hut every statement I make is
hacked by Official State Keports from various
State Experiment farms.
Everyone must know that the tests are fair
and absolutely impartial, and they show beyond
any doubt that, under some conditions of soil,
climate and cultivation, my King's Improved
Cotton will make an average of 04 per cent,
more than the other improved Cottons. What
does this mean?
ANSWER.
Where you row make five bales of Cotton, by
planting my seed you will make from seven to
ten bales—hence the two to five bales are extra
money, at no extra expense, save the cost of a
few see vis.
You don't believe what you see in i >rint?
Common sense should tell you that what i state
here are plain facts, because I simply re-state
that which has been sent out by officials, who
had no axe to grind, and. who did not know me
personally. Enough seed
to plant acre will cost you only a
j little and surely tho money will be well spent.
