Pmel’iee' of Monkeys at Forg?_&bh-‘ ; a Decided “Hit" o
{ It happened that Mrs. Nicholas Longworth, the daughter of former sPi‘eek’leixt Roosevelt, and wife of tha Mistinguished Ohio representative; had presented to her among man? -hundred other gifts, two little mons keys, wWho lost no time in sustaining their reputation for mischievous antles, and kept the Longworth hoube‘hold in a panic as to what was going “to happen next. ; : They were too nimble and quick #to be punished for the evil of their ‘ways, and so, week in and week out ithe monkeys had a lovely time of it. :When Mr. and Mrs. Longworth enter tained, the little creatufes were shut up behind lock and key, and usually »wore themselves out in their effort to ibreak through, and went to sleep in consequence, from sheer exhaustiony ~ This had always insured the sucy icess of a party, without any disturbs ing interruptions, until one fateful night when Mrs. Longworth looked up to discover a monkey grinning at her from' the top of a picture. It was only a second until the other ong «climbed up the corner of the cloth, and snatched a few nuts from some wf the panic-stricken guests. His partner in crime leaped from the picy ‘ture and perched himself upon the shoulder of a guest, and the details of what followed are not laid down in’ the directions given to polite sos ciety as how to entertain. : 5 . “But,” laughed a guest not long ago, “I shall never forget how uts terly funny it was, nor how we all enjoyed it, just as soon as we were asured the monkeys would not eaf us.” i -t

_ The battle at Short Jenks’ home cons tinues unabated, says the Atchison iGlobe. At eleven o’clock this morning Mrs. e:nks made the following' official annbuncement: ‘“With a brik NHant charge about breakfast time I flanked my husband with my stalwart foot and he doubled up and then retreated in haste. It was almost a rout.” /At one o’clock this morning Mr. Jenks: ‘offieially announced: “The situation remains unchanged. There have been ‘attacks and counter-attacks on both ‘sides,. with’ no decisive results. I'm now well intrenched and confident be'hind a tub in the cellar. I believe I ‘will ultimately triumph. The enemy is ‘making many claims, and making ithose things is the easiest thing in ‘the world to do. If she had a cannon ithat was as rapid as her mouth I would ‘be compelled to admit that my posi3tlon is serious. At is it, I concede jnothing. I will conserve my strength iand forces, with the view of getting jout of the cellar and consulting a lawiyer. I urge American newspapers to 'Judge not until the real situation iw :known. History will vindicate me iand declare that I did not start hostili‘tles. My sister-in-law urged my wife to start them. My wife didn’t need a great deal of urging.”.

NOISE AS A FACTOR IN WAR|
,Thm Accustomed to It Make Better : Soldiérs Than Thoss Who s e Are Not. X
There has been growing in recent years a belief that the soldier from the rural districts is not as good a campaigmer as his brother-in-arms from the cities. From Europe there has just come one comment from an excellent authority bearing out in a way, so far as the British troops are conterned, this conclusion. il An English’ sergeant major, a class that is the flower of the British army, owing to their system of training, and who, is Great Britain’s professional soldier par excellence, has expressed the opinion as the result of the Belglan and French campaign that the' ‘regiments recruited in the cities are proving the best on the battleflelds 'because they are accustomed to noise. { “It Is the quantity of the German ‘shells that is having this effect,” he %;sifid, “and hellish noise racks the inerves beyond the breaking point for ithosé who live away from the big beities” - | \ . Mayor Gaynor wrote in one of his jinimitable letters that he could work »?n a boiler factory. Most city dwel iflers have to labor under conditions ‘?elosely approximating such a condi:Ltion. No one ever believed anything i;z:od could .be said of the ding-dong : ncussions assailing the civic ear; jand yet we learn by this testimony ithat noises of this kind may become @ factor in war—New York Press. :T g s {PLEASURES OF FILM ACTING
Man Had Been Told It Was a Bore, i But on Experience Found It I ' Far Otherwise.
} “Say,” said Harry Mestayer, “they ‘ltold me film acting was a bore. Takq it from me, it’s a cinch. I went to & istudio today to be photographed in a ‘production. First, the director gave ;me a cigarette to smoke. Then he ‘handed me a glass of beer. I finished four cigarettes and four glasses of ‘beer before the scene was taken. Nex{ @ very pretty actress was ushered in and told to kiss me. She gave me a ‘rather cold caress. and the director—‘;he was a fine fellow, believe me—remonstrated. : : :» “/What's the matter?” he asked: {'Don’t you like Mr. Mestayer? t “‘Why, I've only just met him,’ she ‘replied. : “‘Well, kiss him as though youy ;meant e : ' : . “She did. We had to rehearse it ifive times and -then do it while the ‘camera was working. I understand ithere will be more cigarettes, beer and }gkisse‘s tomorrow.

The Warrior’'s Lance.
! The lance has been more or les§ iridiculed by military experts, on the |ground that it is out of date and cumy {bersome, but the weapon still has its jadvocates, who point out its value in {shock tactics and in cavalry charges, In the German troops, for instance, tthe lance in the hands of the Prussian fuhlans remains a formidable weapon. . Recently attention has been invited ito the fact that the lance point often imakes too deep a wound for the shaft {to be withdrawn quickly, and that itherefore the lancer must run the risk _lot having it wrenched from his grasp in the charge:. In view of this, experiiments have been made with a new {kind of lance carrying a ball below the {base of the lance head. It is said thaf {the new arm is just as effective in dislabling an enemy and is free from many disadvantages.
