Svw York, Dec. 1.—(Special Corre
spondence.)—Tb« "pug" tat been de-
throned. Ho la no longer Uio recipient
of lavish caresses and tins so for lost
fsvor in the eyes and heart of ha for
inerty beloved ml stress that this d.tuin
utlve representative of Ui canine iriliu
(a now banished to the nursery end the
children claim hun os their own ThL
U all very sad for the pug, but front
a more cultivated standpoint the ascon-
aion of a new pet In the form of the
present «te la very encouraging, und
!f progress Is continuous we may hope
In t.uie to see the fashionable woman
ho able to enjoj* the soolety of her
own children, aa abe seems to bo com
niencing at the very foundation now.
If Mr. Darwin may be quoted us an
authority. The new pet is no more or
leas than a monkey; not any larger, or
*0 large as a n ntvday-old kitten, bm
‘‘Oh, to cunning and sweet.” These
dear little creatures, whom we are sup
posed to resemble (barr.ng the natural
wearing apparel), receive much more
attention than d.d tho.r predecessor.
For example, they must not sleep In
a basket or eat by themsdlves, but have
o place on the table beside tltclr mis.
tress, and they are permitted to repose
upon «io silk and luoo covered pillow
upon which she sleeps.
Tb s may seem curious, but Jt is read
ily explained by Uio fact that a mon
key Is farther along in lire animal king
dom than a pug, and consequently can
appreciate bettor accommodations, Ouo

a jump the other day while standing
alongside a very fashionably dressed

a moment my heart sank, and 1 feared

a helpless sort of way, but Dually real
ized that 1 had actually touched the
hem of the garment of one of the lead
ers of fashionable freaks. Monkeys

are proper at the matinee, and most

Horo Is a story on a Washington girl.
She Is of a phllautbroplcal end humane
turn of mind, and prevention of cruelty to
animals is her hobby. In walking along
by Lafayette squaroebe saw an object that
cxolted her sympathies. A forlorn looking
tart horse had u pleco of wide yellow rib
bon tied between Its ears, tho ends flap
ping ovor Its eyes so thut she was sure tho
poor thing could not see Anything at all.
(hupping tho cart, she motioned to tbo old
darky who was driving to cot down. The
old man respectfully obeyed.
“This Is absolute cruelty," sbo said Im
periously. “Thut poor creature must bo
nlmoMt wild with that rag flapping over
hi* eye. Take It off. Tho poor thing can't
see at all.”
‘Lor, miss,” said the old darky, “dat
h°es bin stone blind fo' tnuuy a year!''—

Washington, Deo. 2.—Suggestions
have been received, says Comptreller
of the Currency Hoke's In his annual
report which will bi submitted to con
gress tomorrow, from many omluect
financial sources, tha*. the whole ques
tion of a banking auu currency system
ought to be referred by congress to i
committee to be created by the aw
appointed by the presldeut and clothed
with proper author ty.
“A committee non-partisan in Its
ohsrauier," he says, “composed of men
of eminent ability, could unquestiona
bly dev so a currency system sound lu
every particular and cue which would
commend Itself to every Interest cf
tho country. It .wild largely take 'he
question out of polit e* und have it
considered simply In lit business as
peels aud merits alone; but if the pres
ent congress '■ to cuact a law upon
tho subject, the appointment of a core
ra.ttoe would avail muting. If, l«.w.
ever, nothing more dcdulto can be ac

of such a cbimn't’.ce ought to bit con
