Future Climbers Can Risk Their Lives on Piece of Beef. In about four years' time, when you wish to climb the Matterhorn, in stead of engaging a guide and watt ing days for fair weather, and then risking your neck In a breathless, glorious scramble over the glaciers and cliffs, you will simply press a button and shout, "Going up!" The railway to the top of the mountain, which Is to be completed at a cost of $1,250,000, will be the most interesting of the world'B great elevators, and will car ry the "rocklng-chalr climber" to those grand viewpoints which defied all mountaineers until the memora ble ascent in 1865 by Mr. Whymper, Lord Douglas and their companions, which ended tragically. The road will pierce its way upward through tun nels in the living rock to a point with in sixty feet of the summit, at an al titude of 14,780 feet, where a number of rooms will be cut. The announce ment is made that the terminus will be provided with various novel con trivances, not the least of which will be a special chamber filled with com pressed oxygen for tourists suffering from mountain sickness. It Is need less to say that the true mountain climbers, whoso pride and Joy it is to conquer the mighty Alpine snow peaks look upon the prospective intrusion of the railroad and hordes of "trippers" with lll-dlsguised grief. It was bad enough, say they, to "have -Jungfrau desecrated, but the Matterhorn, that superb peak, pronounced by Ruskln to be the perfect mountain, should have been left alone. On the other hand, thousands of people for whom the climb would be a physical im possibility, are fully capable of ap preciating the glories ot the outlook and the uplift that comes from stand ing on so renowned a summit. No one has an exclusive property in such a peak as the Matterhorn. Boston Transcript. Lesion In Accuracy, Register ot Deeds, Charles C.

Tom's table manners were wonder fully Improved by a method described !n "Harper's Bazar." Each time he made a mistake of any kind he was assessed five cents, the amount being deducted from his weekly allowance ot spending money, and each time he could discover any lapse In table etiquette on the part of any other member of the family he could col lect five cents, provided his own man ners during the meal had been Irre proachable. Tom's parents were not merely surprised, they were electri fied, by the efficiency ot this method. He even neglected his meals while he kept an eagle eye on "daddy" and mother. No deviation, however slight,, from established table rules escaped him, and though he lost 35 cents the first week, he came out with $1.70 to his credit at the end of the second. At the end of a few weeks he was equipped for the most formal dinner. New York Tribune. The King of Beasts. The old Egyptians sometimes used lions when they went hunting. Some of their pictures show that they tamed lions to hunt for them like dogs, says the Christian Intelligencer. That is something that we should hardly want to try now, although some persons have mado pets of the animals. Even so fierce a beast can be led to love those that show it kind ness, as is shown by a very old story. A slave once ran away from his mas ter in Africa and hid in a cave. He was frightened to see a lion coming to him, but the animal did not 'try to hurt htm. He was suffering from a thorn in bis paw, and seemed to ask the man to take it out. He did, and the two became good friends. Some time after the slave was caught and taken to Rome. There he was to be put to death by letting a Hon loose upon "him, but to the astonishment ot the people the lion seemed to know him and was pleased to see him. Both ot them were set free, and the man used to be seen in the streets leading around his strange friend. The Two Pumpkins. In the middle of the corn-field sat two great yellow pumpkins. The corn shucks stood all around; they looked like Indians wrapped in blan kets, with feathers on their heads. The Indian summer sun shone warm and bright, and the pumpkins almost smiled as they looked into each oth er's round, contented faces. "Where are you going to spend Thanksgiving?" asked the fat, Jolly pumpkin. "In a pie plate," sold the big, good natured pumpkin. "Oh, yes: whoev er Is invited, they won't forget me." "I shall be a Jack-o'-lantern," said the Jolly pumpkin. "Such fun!" "I hope you won't make dreadful faces, and scare the little girls," said the big, good-natured pumpkin. "Oh, no," said his Jolly friend. "I'll only wink one eye and turn up the corners ot my mouth in an awful fun ny smile. How everybody will laugh." "Just as you like," said the other; "but I would rather have a warm cor ner in the oven. The nights are get ting rather chilly now." The pumpkins had their wish. When they were carried into the house, grandma looked at the big one, and said, "That will make good pies"; and Tommy hugged the round fat one with both his short arms, and shouted, "You shall be my Jack Lantern!'- So, while Tommy ate his dinner, the fat, Jolly pumpkin peeped in at the window with a candle in his mouth, and smiled so broadly that Tommy smiled too. "Grandma," he said, "this pie is as good as anything. It tastes 'most Just 'zactly like sunshine!" Youth's Companion. Birds of Wlnteiv Mabel Osgood Wright, in ' "Bird Lore," tells people who live in the country how to manage if they want feathered guests about their places In the winter. There should be a heap of brush or cornstalks some where In the grounds, she says, and for people who live near cedar woods It Is a good plan to cut' half a dozen small trees and fasten them against a fence or shed where there Is a southern exposure. A louse thatch of cornstalks or hemlock boughs over a pile ot logs Is almost sure to bring winter wrens and any number of oth er birds as permanent lodgers. The little things like to squat down and huddle together In cold weather, and a thatch is comfortable to their lit tle feet: Tree boxes and trays for holding bird food should be perforated at the bottom, so the moisture will ooze through Instead of freezing in the tray. The meals are quite chilly enough without icing them. And the diet should be varied, for, while seeds are supposed to be the proper things for birds, they appreciate a change very much. Some meat scraps, ground up In the meat chop per and mixed with the cracked corn and dog biscuit, are good to put out on cold days and after a storm. And the birds like freshly boiled .pota toes and rice but without salt. They prefer their food without seasoning. The pan of water should be set in a sunny spot, and It should always be put out, no matter how cold the weather. For there is always at least an hour in the day when the birds can drink. Ever schoolhouse ought to have a feeding box for the smaller birds near It, and the children should be taught to put In an extra supply ot food on Friday. Otherwise Sunday will be a sorry day for the birds that depend on that table a fast day, In stead of a feast day, as It ought to be. New York Tribune. Visit to Mount Vernon. One afternoon we boarded a boat at the dock in Washington and went up the river to Mount Vernon. The place has been kept as nearly as pos sible the way it was when our first President owned it I do not won der he loved the spot. Below in front rolls the river. On both sides Is a stretch ot beautiful lawn. In the back are the cottages the gar dener's house, the laundry and the room where the spinning was done. In one little house you can see the old coach in which Washington drove to church in Alexandria. Coming downstairs from the second story, where you see the bed on which he died, a little box high up on the wall attracts your attention. In It is a large key quite an ordinary lopking key. It is the key ot the Bas tile, the famous French prison. . In one of the rooms is a carpet, with the coat-of-eirms of the United States worked in the centre. It was a present from Louis XVI. In another room you can see Nel lie Custls's harpsichord. It Is a queer little Instrument, with two rows of keys, on the order of an organ. Down below the house, in the tomb, are the coffins of Washington and bis wife, on which fresh flowers are put every day. When boats go by in the river be low they toll a bell until they have passed the house. This I think is one of the prettiest tributes we pay to our first President Marjorie Gra ham, in the New York Tribune. Th Maoris of Now Zealand number 42,00ft' OE30I ionoi IODOI DO APES COEXOC 30C30E 301 An ape, reared from babyhood at the Biological Institute in Amanl, Ger man East Africa, has accomplishments as a bicycle rider. There was a demand from Berlin fur so gifted a specimen of the anthropoid ape and he bas now been added to the collections in the zoological garden ot that city. Perhaps it is not very remarkable that an in telligent ape, with Innate love for feats of balancing and gymnastic stunts on the branches of trees, should learn to ride a bicycle. , His trainer reports that his patience and time were not overtaxed in teach ing him to ride. The ape was a little slow in grasping the Idea that by work ing the pedals he could propel the ma chine, but when light dawned Upon him his education as a wheelman was al most complete. He Is not yet suffic iently observant of obstacles in the road but he is improving. Just now the German public is most interested in the studies that Dr. Alexander Sokolovskl has been mak ing ot three anthropoid apes at Stell lngen, near Berlin. His scientific spec ialty Is zoological psychology and he has been observing the life ot two orang-outangs, male and female, called Jacob and. Rosa, and en unnamed chim panzee. He has convinced himself that these animals have not only Instinct but also elementary reasoning pow ers. The three animals are excellent friends, but there are marked temper amental differences between the chim panzee and the orang-outangs.' The former is full ot life and Is doing some thing every waking moment. The lat ter are more quiet, sit reposefully for long periods on the floor, and when they attempt the swinging bar they are slower and more cautious than the chimpanzee.,who Is reckless. He likes rough and tumble play with Jacob, but Rosa Is his favorite. There seems to be a perfect understanding between them and she Is his dutiful servant In many of his original performances. To facilitate Dr. Sokolovski's studies the keepers gave a good deal of lati tude to the three animals. The chim panzee especially has had his own way to an unusual extent. He acts more naturally when he does not know that he Is under human observ ation, and for hours every day he has been apparently by himself though watched every moment. Some of the most Interesting results of Dr. Sokolovski's studies grew out of the chimpanzee's desire to escape con finement. He does not like it, though his two friends seem content. They occupied a part of a very large wire cage, more than half of which was tieed as the summer sleeping place of the giraffes. The board partition div iding the cage Into two compartments was high, though It did not extend to the roof. Nobody dreamed that the chimpanzee could surmount this wall, but he did, and It was of his three suc cessful attempts to get out of his cage. In a corner of the cage against the wooden partition . was a large box in which the apes slept and so heavy that they could not move It. One day the chimpanzee Jumped up on this box and seemed to be critically examining the partition. He Jumped into the air again and again with his arms stretch ed above his head, but he could not bring bis fingers within three feet of the top ot the wall. His attention suddenly became riveted upon a large tin globe which had been given to the animals to play with. It was made of thick plate and was so big and heavy that It was not easy to handle. It was made for rolling along the ground. Now was the time for Rosa to help, and she was summoned. Together they boosted the globe upon tne box and rolled it Into the corner. Here it was kept by the faithful and Intelli gent Rosa while her friend clamber ed up over her back to the top of the globe. Rosa still kept the globe in place while the venturesome chimpan zee jumped again and again for the top of that partition. But he could not reach' It by several Inches. Then he had a conference with Rosa. Just how he communicated his idea to her is not known, but she understood him somehow or other. The chimpanzee took her arm and helped her to clamber up on the globe. She stretched herself face downward on the rounding surface. The chim panzee mounted on her body and made another mighty spring into the air. It was a great success, for he clutch ed the top of the partition and drop ped down amongi the giraffes on the other side. Ho was not a bit concern ed about leaving his friends, but the unselfish Rosa had helped him to de sert without reaping any advantage 'herself. The keepers escorted the ape back to his own compartment and deprived the three friends of the globe that had given them so much amusoment. They were very certain that the chimpanzee could not surmount the partition again. They did not know the extent of the animal's resources. It was observed a few days later the chimpanzee was having more fun than ever on h's trapeze, and it looked as though he was continually trying to swing himself against the roof. At last he gathered all his energies for the biggest vwlng of all, and when at the summit cf his flight he sprang off the bar and Just managed to catch the top of the par tition. The next moment he was among the giraffes again. That very day the partition was extended to the roof and flight In this direction was quite cut off. His next attempt was to break the fastening n lh door of the cage. He aonoq REASON? 30E30I acao observed with much apparent interest that when the keeper entered the cage he handled a bunch of keys, one of which he inserted in a padlock. The keeper sometimes gave him the keys because he was so gravely curious to examine them one by one, and often he would strain up against the wire to look at the padlock outside, for the idea seemed to dawn upon him that it had something to do with getting into or out of the cage. One day Jacob managed to break the wooden piece on the swing and this put an Implement into the hands of the chimpanzee. The bit of tough hard wood was about three feet long and It had broken so that one end was al most a point. Dr. Sokolovskl could scarcely believe bis eyes when he saw the ape thrust the stick outside of the wire, push the thin end up through the staple that held the padlock and then pry with all his might to force it out The keeper was notified, the perform ances terminated, and the chimpanzee was deprived of his new tool. As he felt his restraint so deeply it was decided to give him & little oc casional exercise In the open, and so one day the keeper took htm out into the garden for a stroll, leading him by a small chain. It was a great lark for the ape and he plainly manifested his enjoyment and all the more when they reached a fruit stall at the gate, where he was regaled with bananas. , He had the time of his life and the very next day he decided that he want ed, anol her stroll and more bananas. He set to work on tba wire ot the cage, which was merely meant for summer use, but was supposed to be strong enough to hold any animal that was put Into the cage. The chimpanzee confined his attention to the smaller wires that, were bent around the net work of larger wires to keep them In place. He bit and tugged at one wire with his strong teeth till It broke, and then he uncoiled it with his fingers end threw it on the ground. He treat ed a number of these wire bands in the same way and then with his enor mously strong hands and arms he pull ed and bent the larger wires till he bad cleared a hole big enough to crawl through. It was high time to sound the alarm, but before anything could be done the chimpanzee was out In the garden and Jacob and Rosa were at his heels. The leader was making straight for the fruit stand when the force of keep ers coralled the party and forced them back into the cage. This is only one series of observa tions among many which led Dr. Sok olovskl to the conviction that these animals, while less than human, are much more than brutes. He learned many things also from the orang outang, but they were not so bright and interesting as the chimpanzee. One of the peculiarities of this fel low was his antipathy for everything human excepting his keepers. Jacob and Rosa would blandly extend their harids for a cordial shake with the pub lic while the chimpanzee lurked be hind for a good chance to snatch off the headgear ot the visitors. Spec tacles aroused his greatest ire and .he had a way of sweeping them off the nose with a sort of backhand claW that hurt and almost stunned the victim. Dr. Sokolovskl advises that a num ber of young men trained in zoological or comparative psychology be station ed in the native homes of these ani mals to make a thorough study of them. He does not think that the anthropoid ape was the direct ances tor ot the human race, but he believes man originated through some striking differentiation from them. At any rate in physical structure and in mental processes they are the near est approach which the brute creation has made to man. They are worthy of the most minute study, and with the present methods of investigation Dr. Sokolovskl believes it will be possible to reveal their whole life and history nnd to learn just what they are.
