Rajah Dressed Like a Man and Ate With a Knife and
Fork—Could Ride a 'Bicyele and Go Round on
Roller Skates.
After an illness of two weeks, Rajah, the
educated orang-outang of the New York
zoological garden in Bronx park, died Sun-
day afternoon in the monkey hospital.
His death occurred a few hours “after that
of his brother, Brunei, who died peacefully
with three doctors and two. trained nurses
watching over him.
The four orang-outangs in the zoo be-
came ill about October 5th, and Dr. Frank
H. Miller, who was summoned to attend
them was of the opinion that they were
suffering from a disease resembling ty-
phoid fever. He called Dr. Gilbert Van
Der Smissen in cousultation and the pa-
tients were placed in the monkey hospital.
Munzie, who had cared for them from the
time they arrived from Borneo, volunteered
his service as a trained nurse, for he had
become greatly attached to Rajab. With
Assistant Carator Ditmars, Munzie sat up
nights at the bedside of the four patients,
giving them their medicine and helping
two trained nurses who bad been engaged
to care for them. The sick-room resembled
that of a typhoid fever patient in a city
hospital. A schedule was kept showing
the temperature and respiration of each pa-
tient, and when it was learned that Rajah
and Brunei were not improving Dr. Har-
low Brooks, of Bellevue hospital, was sent
for. With the other two doctors he agreed
that the biggest of the two patients had
very little chance of recovery.
The three doctors made daily visits to
the monkey hospital and came to the con-
clusion that Rajah would certainly die
within a few hours. Brunei, they said,
would also die. The other two, Sally, the
wife of Rajah, and Sultan, the smallest of
the group, were pronounced out of danger.
Sally was taken back to her quarters in the
mammal honse and Sultan was taken there
t00. On Saturday night the three doctors.
the trained nurses, Keeper Munzie and
Curator Ditmars sat for six hours at the
bedside of Brunei. He became uncon-
scious at midnight and died at 2 o'¢lock in
the morning. ‘
The death-bed scene in Rajah’s case was
affecting. He was placed on a mattress
with a pillow under his head and the
three doctors stood at the foot of the hed.
Curator Ditmars sat at one side holding a
handkerchief with cracked ice to Rajah's
head, while keeper Munzie held his hand
and wept. Rajah pointed to the new suit of
clothing which the zoo folks had purchased
for him when they taught him to eat ata
table wifh a knife and fork. Then Rajah
put out his paw, or, as keeper Munzie
called it, his right hand, and offered to
shake. Then he pointed to the ruffled
bosom shirt, the black tie and the white
collar which he had worn when thousands
of persons had seen him give public exhibi-
tions of proper table manners, after which
he turned on his side and, closing his eyes,
held ‘Dr. Munzie's band in a grip. He
died a few minutes later. \
Almost as soon as the doctors pronounced
Rajah dead Sally, his widow began to
moan, and the doctors said she certainly
must have known what had happened.
She refused to accept any food all day
Sunday and cried like a child when she
saw Rajah’s body carried from the monkey
hospital.
“A temporary monkey morgue was estab-
lished in thé animal dissecting house and
there Dr. Hn of Bellevue hospital per-
formed autopsies on the bodies of Rajah
and Brunei. Dr. Brooks learned that both
died-of dysentery... The braivof Rajah.was.
d to weigh eleven ounces.
ome of the zoo attendants were of the
ion that Rajah was to have a gorgeous
eral. While they were making prepara-
tiodls to give him a royal send-off a notice
came to the effect that Rajah and Brunei
wete to be stuffed and sent to the musenm
of datural history. The bodies were sewed
in Sacks and sent away iu a carriage.
Ehen Curators Ditmars sat on a box of
es and said :
oor Rajah, he knew mote than any
other ape that ever lived. We were per-
paring him to startle the world ou the oc-
n of the opening of the new monkey
house, which will take place about Novem-
ber 15th. New Yorkers had seen him
dressed in store clothes, sitting at a table
eating a course dinner, and people came
from all parts of the country to see him eat
this way. But he had prepared a surprise
for the public. We had taught him to ride
ycle, after teaching him to ride a tri-
We had also taught him to go

ing on a shirt and coat. He would hold

‘‘He’ dined ' on custard, bananas and
fruits of all kinds and drank claret from a
bottle at dinner. We were teaching him
to write when he became ill. He bod
. learned to hold a lead pencil in his hand,
but he could only make a few marks. I
suppose if he had had a pencil just before
he died he might have drawn a will and
left gold mines in Borneo. Daring his ill-
tess he was fed on beef tea, barley soup,
gruel and toasted bred. His widow, Sally,
grieved as much over his death as she did
last year when her sister, Sandog, and her
brother-in-law, Pompeii, died here from
tuberculosis.”
Curious Death.
Austrian Killed by Hatching of Eggs of a Blue Bottle
Fly in His Intestines.
The doctors in Viennz, are greatly inter-
ested in the case of a young man, 23 years
oid, who has just died after a six months’
panfal illness, which puzzled the physi-
¢rans, including German specialists.
Shortly before his death his ailment was
aguosed as the result of the batching of
exis of a blue bottle fly, which the patient
nud swallowed, causing perforation of the
1 estines, The sufferer was then too weak
andergo an operation. :
An autopsy confirmed the diagnosis.

Squaw’s Cestly Attire.
Indian Women Who Wear Suits Worth a Thousand
Doliars.
It has just cropped out in social circles
that the Oklahoma women are among the
most extravagant dressers in America.
This fact is worth presenting to those who
look to Paris for their fashions. There may
come a time when Epiadooks to Oklahoma
if things go on in this way. Itisa fact,
very narrowly known, that many women
of the Kiowa, Comanche, Arapahoe and
Ponca tribes have dress=s costing from $750
and $1,500 apiece. They are not made in
what we should call the latest styles; the
decorations are what count. :
The squaws’ mofley is nearly all spent in
purchasing costly otnaments for their cloth-
ing. These ornaments are in the shape of
jewelry and precious stones, elk teeth and
pearls. It is nothing out of the common
to see an Indian girl walking around over
her reservation with $500 wort of elk teeth
tied to her dress in decorative style. Again,
a two-karat diamond is no curiosity to these
dusky belles. Most of the dresses are made
from soft buckskin lined with silk or satin,
Red satin is a great favorite for dress lin-
ing and shirt waists among the Indian wom-
en. Yellow silk isanother of their favor-
ites, but violet was the prevailing color
this year. Next year the Indian woman
who leads the fashion will decree a new and
flashy color to be the up to date thing, and,
of course, all of the women will follow
her.
Society as we name it is a thing unknown
among the reservation Indian women, but
they have a certain envy of social standing
jnst the same. When they come to the
small towns on trading days there may be
assembled several hundred of the women
from various parts of the country, and they
gather in the agency and talk over events
among themselves, gossip upon the scandals
and rail against the whites for hours at a
time.
It is during this function that they may
be seen in their best dress, and each one
tries to outdo her neighbor in ornaments.
The more elk teeth one has on her dress
the more popular she is at these weekly
meetings at the agency buildings. They
examine each others’ dresses carefully and
freely express to the wearer opinions upon
the quality and cost. If the dress meets
with the disapproval of ove. she has no
hesitancy about saying so to the owner of
such dress, who! retorts as she sees fit.
Sometimes open quarrels ensue at these
sessions because some woman has been too
bold in her criticism. Before they go home
they take a vote on the dresses, and the
owner of the best is crowned leader of
fashion for the next week, and all must re-
frain from criticising her dress. During
the ensuing week there is a great race to
outshine ner garments, and this is general-
ly accomplished, no matter how hard she
may have striven to hold her place in the
lead. The squaws do not have to work as
hard as is generally supposed. They do
little ‘outside their houses, asthe Indians
who have an income from the United States
do not farm. All of the money due the
women is paid direct to them, and they
spend it to please their own tastes, which
means for dress.
The swellest gowns are made from tan-
ned buffalo hides, which at this time are
very scarce. The leather is soft and dura-
ble. It is made up into a comfortably fit-
ting skirt and loose waist. All dresses are
cut in about the same style. They cost
very little until the decorations are added.
This is where the extravagance begins.
Not less that a hundred elk teeth adorn the
bosom of a dress and sometimes 200 are
used. - They can be sold at from $5 to $10
apiece. Then a row of gold braid mast go
around the bottom of the skirt, and a string:
of pearl. beads should adorn every belt.
With addition of elk teeth, pearls and
oyster shells the dress soon becomes very
NAAR issn PAR SB JENS ERAS,
As the Comanche and their neighbors,
the Kiowas, were great hunters they have
the most elk teeth and buffalo hides; hence
in Indian circles the women of these two
tribes are supposed to be the best dressed.
Not until last Easter did the squaw intro-
duce the wearing of hats, but they spent
money freely for head pieces when they once
began. They all had their bats trimmed
with red roses and violets. Some of the
hats were as large as a bushel basket.
The fashions they follow up are very
amusing to the white people, but with
them it is a serious business, and the wam-
en are as much interested in their shop-
ping asa white woman would be at he
counter of one of the largest millinery
houses in New York. ;
Civilization is steadily growing with
these people and the ways of the whites
show in many matters besides those of
dress. Most of the vonng manied couples
of the Kiowa and Comanche tribes have
comfortable houses instead of tepees. They
are well educated having been forced to/at-
tend the government schools. To these
new manners of life the young men and
women take kindly, but the older class
will bave none of them. They continue to
live in tents, as do full bloods of other
south western tribes. 2

She is not yet versed in the art of decora-
tion, and red and green are predominating
colors in all of her rooms, whether in har-
mony or not. The house has good fugni-
tare but it is strabgely arranged. he

into the'parlor, and in many ‘houses it is
hung upon the wall. Red ribhons are tied
to every thing, even to the tail of the cat,

Fault-Finding Helps Nobody.
Contumely helps nobody ; least of all to
one who administers it. Pessimistic re-
marks dampen the enthusiasm of others,
discourage honest effort, and react on the
grumbler. Chronic fault finders command
no favor with employers or fellow employ-
ees, and are not the ones selected for ad-
vancement. Talking failure makes failure
easy. A gloomy, melancholy, disposition
is largely a matter of habit and materially
retards one’s advancement. It does not
matter if one is unconscious of these habits
they all fignre in the final result.of life
work, just the same. Watch your chance
remarks. Make them count for hope and
encouragement.— November Success. #
They're Good Feeders.
The amount of food it requires to sus-
tain the inmates of an institution like the
Huntingdon reformatory may be judged
from the fact that it took 33} bushels of
beaus, 303 dozen of corn, 1,575 cantalou pes,
923 heads of cabbage. 325 dozen of sucum-
bers, 2,085 pounds of onions, 7,535 pounds
of potatoes, 24 bushels of sweet potatoes,
22 bushels of tomatoes, 39 hushels of
peaches and 1 barrel of pickles to furnish
the tables during the month of September.

Trees Have Many Uses
Their Value Before They Are Touched.
Utilitarians consider the trunk the im-
portant part of the tree. The trunk is a
wise makeshift of nature which towers
aloft, and tries to lift the vital organs of the
tree, the leaves, out of harm’s way and inta.
purer air and brighter sunshine. Beneath
the ground the strong roots and rootlets
have hundreds of eager, thirsty mouths
which take nourishment from the eaith.
Water and mineral matter are carried up-
ward by the processes of capillary attraction
to the leaves in thecrown and the branches
for digestion aud assimilation. A leafless
tree stands little chance of living. Trees
denuded of their leaves by caterpillars and
other mischievous things are deprived of
their stomachs and lungs at once.
Every leaf on a tree is unceasingly in-
dustrious day and night. Examine the
linden leaf, or, in fact, any leaf will do—
the truth applies to all—and notice how its
surface is spread to catch the sunshine.
The other side of the leaf has a differentap-
pearance. The tissue is tenderer and a net-
work of breathing pores. A section piaced
under the objective of the microscope re-
veals tiny cells filled with a greenish liquid
called chloropyhl, which plays an impor-
tant part in the domestic economy of the
tree. When undigested food from the
ground has: been carried to the leaves the
chlorophyl seizes it,and under the influence
of sunlight changes it to nourishment. The
chlorophyll also breaks up the carbon diox-
ide with which it comes in contact, and
liberating the oxygen, sends it out into the
atmosphere.
Digested food materials are carried from
the leaves to all parts of the tree and aid in
its growth. Leaves, as the lungs, aie nec-
essary in the process of breathing. Like
animals, the tree needs oxygen and breaths
much after the manner of a human being.
Not only is the life giving air taken into
the lungs, or leaves. bat it is inhaled
through tiny openings in the bark, just as
men and animals transpire through the
skin. These tiny breathing holes are call-
ed lentieels, and may be seen plainly on
the bark of cherry and many other kinds of
trees. As the tree drinks water, it sweats
and exhales water vapor along with the
oxygen cast off from the carbon dioxide.
Tons and tous of moving moisture are
evaporated from wooded areas. This isan-
other heueficial act. Water vapor in the
atmosphere is essential to agriculture.
Trees transpire through cracks and fissures
in the bark, where the lenticels are hidden
from sight. This is especially true in old
trees. From time to time scientists have
computed the leaf area of trees and the re-
sults have been astonishing. An ordinary
linden leaf has a surface of ten square
inches. Multiply this by the number of
leaves on a branch and calculate the leaf-
age area of the tree. This entire surface is
liberating oxygen and water vapor day ‘and
night.
In the arid sections of the West the peo-
ple are beginning to see that forestry and
irrigation are the factors which will count
for their prosperity.
About 1,000,000 square miles, or mcre
than one third of the United States, is for-
est land. The destruction of forests has
been so extravagant that the government
has taken the matter in hand and decided
on thirty eight reservations where the for-
ests will-he-under- intelligent supervision.
There has heen some misunderstanding in
regard to these reserves, although the in-
tention is to preserve the forest and en-
courage the growth of young trees while at
the same time the land available for settle-
ment will be increased. As forests con-
serve the rainfall and influence the humid-
ity of the atmosphere, newly planted for-
ests will wedge in between farms on the re-
sarvations and farms penetrate the clear-
ings in old forests. Sheep herders and set-
tlers must be, taught intelligent forestry
and tree wisdom must be spread broadcast
over the land before the tree receives the
reverential respect due to it.
Left and Right-Handcdness,
Explained by the Anatomical Reason for
8ame Quality in the Eyes.
the
It isa well known fact that the stronger
activity of the nerves of the right half of
the body (for not only the hand is concern-
ed) must be ascribed to a preponderance on
the left side of the brain, whose final de-
velopment, especially as the seat of the
centre of speech, is a matter of common
knowledge.
In a paper by Dr. Luddeckens in the
‘‘Allemeines’ Journal der Uhrmacherkunst®’
valuable information regarding the causes
of the unequal workings of the two hemi-
spheres of the brain, is furnished. A
sketch touching on the history of the ev-
olution leads from the original symmetry
of the organism to a subseque1t asymmet-
rical arrangement of the heart and the
large blood vessels, from which it follows
quite naturally that the two halves of the
bead are not placed on an equal footing as
regards the distribution of the blood, and
consequently of the blood pressore, and
thas, on the contrary, there mustbe, un-
der normal conditions, a stronger pressure
on the arteries of the left side of the head.
This theory is borne out by well known
experiences of anatomists and pathologists
and series of interesting observations. Of
special interest is the effect of the higher
blood pressure on the left eye. Dr. Lud-
deckens found in the latter, as compared
with the right one, in a surprisingly large
number of cases, a narrower pupil in con-
sequence of a more filled-up condition of
the vessels of the i1is, and upon closer ex-
amination a shorter construction of the eye-
ball. This furnishes reason for the fact
that in a’ large number of persons the left
eye is the better one. Thus the finer de-
velopment of the left half of the brain is
explained very simply by the fact that it is
better supplied with blood, and the ques-
tion why is it the seat of the centre of
speech and why most people are right-
handed is solved in the most natural man-
ner. :
It is striking how true a reflection of the
conditions described is afforded by the ex-
amination of left-handed persons In many
cases a redder color was noticeable on the
right side of the face; the right eye was
built shorter, its pupils barrower; in short,
every thing points to a better blood supply
on the right side of the brain, which in
consequence, imparts to the left side of the
body the preponderance over the right eye,
a condition styled left-handedness, In
close connection thereto is the habit of
most left-handed persons to sleep on the
left side in the unconscious endeavor to re-
lieve the right half of the brain, which is
more charged with hlood during the day.
For right-handed persons the position on
the right side is the normal one ' for the
same reason.— London Optician.
——“I smell something hurning,”’ said
the husband, after he had lighted his pipe
and settled back in the easy chair for a com-
fortabte smoke. ~
*‘Isn’t it delicious !"” exclaimed his wife,
joyously. ‘‘I emptied a whole iot of rose
leaves in your tobacco jar !”’
Where Amber Comes From.
The main source of the amber supply is
the sea coast of the Baltic ocean. It is
fossil gum, originally the exudation of a
species of confer now extinct. This grew
in luxuriant profusion hundreds of thou-
sands of years ago on the marshy coasts of
Northern Europe, when the climate was
much warmer thau it is to-day. The nat-
ural history of amber is thus explained.
The immense forests of amber pine under-
went their natural downfall and decay.
The resin of the wood accumulated in large
quantities in bogs and ponds and in the
soil of the forest. ‘YVhere the coast was
slowly sinking the sea, by and by, covered
the land, and the amber, which had been
gradually hardening, was at last deposited
at thé ocean bottom. But in higher regions
the pines: continued to flourish and so
amber would still continue to be washed
down to the shore and, deposits on the lat-
ter, form green sand, and the still later
formed stratum of lignite or brown coal.
The gum became fossilized by its long
barial underground. More than 200 speci-
mens of extinct life, animals and vegetables,
have been found imbedded in amber speci-
mens, including insects, reptiles, plants,
leaves, shells, fruit, etc., which had been
caught in the liquid gum and entombed
there for all time. Some of the specimens
are so curiously beautiful as to be almost
priceless, and one English collector has a
cabinet of them which is valued at 100,-
000 pounds. One piece embalms a lizzard
eight inches long, a little jeweled monster
perféct in its form and coloring, which has
no like in anything existing now. Indeed,
in many instances science is able solely
throagh this mediam to study details of
animal life which perished from the earth
many hundred thousand years ago. There
are flies, preserved with wings poised as if
for flight, where the prismatic sheen glow-
ing through the yellow sepulchre is as bril-
liant as if they were floating alive in the
sunshine.
