CHICAGO. "Gigantic and glorious
festival of mirth and melody." "A
"brilliant halt-hour mosaic of musical
comedy, superbly staged."
"Ten dainty, dimpled Broadway
beauties. Just Hko tho French cab

about a skit before tho footlights

Municipal Judge It. F. Robinson saw
part of tho show the other day and

In the skit as "Josh Kidder, a waiter

Plaintiffs Lillian, Bertha and Ida
Lewis, dancers, and Mrs. Bessie Lew

known In tho skit respectively as
'"Lotta Racket" I'LouIse Louder" and
"Poroxa Snow."
The "heavies" were Detectives Mc
Gulre and Rank, who made tho
"pinch."
"Lotta Racket er I mean Lillian

of tho savings that he squandered on

"Pout! $800, phe's gono like that"
said Joo expressively, blowing out a
fierce blast of macaronl-ladon breath.

They had a "quick wedding" ac
cording to Joe, and then his trou

for clothes for IiIb pretty wife, and
tken began a constant war with his

"Yes, It was awful, Judge," Mrs. Low

while Griffith tried to give his side of

Judge Robinson listened for a while
and then ordered silence.
"It must have been a clgantic and

the judge said, reading the program.
"It was so much so that I'm going to

"Some people may ask how tho bees

Of course, they have no trouble In the

Tramp Steamer's Cook Adopted
by Baboons in Africa.

Disappears and Is Believed to
Have Answered to the Call
of the Wild.
New York. Hero Is a yarn for your
whiskers, mate. Bolleve It or not, but
all the officers of the British Tramp
Midair, which a few days ago waB ly
ing ovorln South Brooklyn, are willing
to take oath as to Its truthfulness.
They declare that tho strango events
as related by Second Mato Brownlee,
acting as spokesman for tho rest aro
just an thoy happened.
"We had a cook," began tho second
mate, "I say 'had,' for ho is not with
us now. But this horo cooklo, who
was a Hindu, was tho best cook wo
ever bad. It took us somo tlmo to
got used to his countonanco, for never
did a man wear such a mask for a
faco as that Hindu boy. And it was
because of this faco of his'n that
brought about thlB strange adven-
' ture.
I "We touched in at Zanzibar, on tho
West African coast, and the cook and
three of the Lascar crew wont ashore
"in search o fsomo herbs that they
use for making medicine for them
selves. Well, tho day woro along,
and no sign of the cook and the
Lascars.
"The old man finally got worried
about not having a cook, and told mo
to tako a couple of men and go find
cookie. We started out toward the
Jungle, thinking that the cook and the
Lascars, having got tired picking
herbs, curled up and went to sleep.
Just aB we arrived on tho edge of
tho jungle we saw the two Lascars
who had accompanied the cook run
ning townrd us with their eyeballs
sticking out of thel rhcadB. '
It seems as how tho cook and the
two Lascars were searching about
for herbs whan they heard a loud
chattering about them, and when
they looked up they saw about 40
baboons sitting in a row and watch
ing them.
"Tho baboons wero particularly ln
terested in cookie. And L. might say
right hero that cookie was the near
est approach to a baboon in human
form that I havo ever beheld. He
was that missing link Darwin was
looking for. The baboons did not
pay much attention to tho two
Lascars.
"Suddenly tho leader of the baboons
ran over and -took hold of cookie and
began to yammer nway In baboon
lingo. All tho other baboons camo
over to cooklo and completely sur
rounded him. They paid no atten
tion whatever to the two Lascars.
When tho Lascars tried tc rescue
cooklo tho baboons went after them
Hko fury.
"Tho next morning wo started out
J a big party to find cookie. Into tho
jungle we went lor anouc nvo muca,
yelling our lungs out. Finally far in
the distanco wo heard an answering
shout and knew that wo wore near
lng the kidnaped ono. Finally wo
came Into a clearing In the junglo and
thero In the center of on admiring cir
cle of baboons sat cooklo. In front
of him was a pile of nuts and fruit
that those baboons had gathered and
brought before him. Cooklo was a
sort of baboon king.
"He had found that they would not
hurt him, and tho baboon life sort
of appealed to him. We had to sail
into those baboons right smart before
they would budge an Inch, and I got
cooklo by tho back of tho nock and
8tartod'back for tho ship.
"It was not long boforo all the of
ficers on the ship were wishing that
we had left tho cook with tho baboons.
He got so he didn't care how ho
cooked any more. Thoso baboons had
spoiled him sure. Ho felt of great im
portance, and tho old man doclded
bo would got another cook at the first
port we made.
"Well, we put In up tho coast a bit,
and that very night cookie went over
the sldo and disappeared. He never
showed up again, and we didn't mako
any effort to find him. We have como

San Francisco, Cal. An hour's

of llfo here Into the body of Bert
Edgar, an electrician, tifler he had
been pronounced dend from' a shock of
2,200 volts of electricity. Besides tho
shock, Edgar was suffering from a
fractured akull, received when tho
electricity threw him from a platform
ten feet abovo tho cement floor of a
basement of a downtown office build

physician In tho building pronounced
Edgar dead. Herman Krosmayer and
Adam Baker, ambulnnco attendants,

Baker and a patrolman ran Edgar's
apparently lifeless body as and down

pavement, while Krosmayer struck
him about tho chest and Bhoulders

Into his ears.
After an hour of nearly continuous

TO REBUILD NOTED TEMPLE
Scheme of Freemasons and Opinions
of Jews on Reconstructing
Solomon's Edifice,
London. The schome of tho Free
masons to rebuild tho Temple of
Solomon at Jerusalem has aroused
much sentimental Interest In Jewish
quarters here, and much doubt Is ex
pressed as to whether tho project will
ever bo realized.
Some two years ago It was an
nounced that Chester had decided to
form a lodge of research to moot at
Jerusalem, and to bo known aB the
Lodge of King Solomon's temple.
Its members wero to bo drawn from
all parts of the world, but In vlow of
tho unaettled stato of affairs then
prevailing In tho Turkish empire tho
lodgo was consecrated in tho province
of Chester, and mot under the Juris
diction of tho gruud lodge of Eng
land. At any tlmo an announcement such
as this could not havo failed from
its very character to aroUBo tho dip-.
est interest throughout Jewry, whuth-1
er membors of tho craft or not, but
coming as It Iiiih within hall of tho
solemn now year, when tho thoughts
of tho Jewish people naturally rovort
to tho past history of their nation. It
has struck a far deopor note than It
might otherwise havo dono.
As to tho Intended uses of the pro
jected templo, dotalls aro necoBBarlly ,
Incomplete, but howover generous
tho financial support that has been '
placed at the disposal of the pro
moters of tho scheme, howover skill-,

convince the Jew that evon modorn
nrts and crafts can reproduce the
statellnoBs and tho splendor of the
original templo, a splendor that Is
considered by some to havo been ex
aggerated. The scheme appears In ono rospoct
to anticipate tho yearnings of the
'pious Jew, who in his devotions prnys
dally for the restoration of Jerusalem,
and Incidentally to tho rebuilding of
tho temple:
"O dwell In tho midst of Thy City
of Jerusalem, as Thou hast spokon,

1 18TH PA. AT SHEPARDSTOWN'
Eye-Witness Tells Story of Crossing
of River by 4th Michigan and
Silenced Battery.
F. A. Ludlow, Holdnn, Mo., compli
ments Comrndo McElroy on his no
count of tho crossing of the 118th Pa.
nt Shepardstown. 1 waB an eyo-wit-ncBs
to thnt affair, writes A. V. Cole
of Hastings, Nob., In tho National
Tribune On Sept. 19, 1862, I think,
tho 4th Mich, was moving down a ra
vino on tho north sldo of tho Potomao,
near Shopnrdstown Ford. A robol
battory stationed on tho south sldo of
the river near tho ford oponed flro on
us. A member of Co. F was killed
and others wero Injured, This Inci
dent did not causo tho regiment to
feel very friendly toward that battory;
and at we approached tho canal which
runs along tho north bank of the riv
er at that point, wo wore halted and
tho Coloned (Chllds) said: "Boys, aro
you willing (without orders) to ford
the river and try to sllenco that bat
tery?" As I remember It thore was no dis
senting volco. Al isald, "Yes." As It
was now getting quite dark, wo filed
down Into the canal. We forded tho
river, captured tho battery, and dump
ed It over the bank. No one on our
side was killed, but two or threo wero
slightly wounded. It was a surprieo
to tho enemy. Thoy hnd not thought
of an attack of that kind after dark.
After accomplishing what wo Btarted
out to do, wo formed for our return to
the north side.
At this point tho wagon raod, or foot
path) ran nt tho foot of tho bluff noar
tho river. As wo wero crossing this
path on our return wo heard tho clat
ter of horses' feot crossing up tho riv
er. Wo waited for tholr npproaoh, and
to their dismay wo took thorn in.
Thore woro seven of them soma
membors of Gon. Loo's Richmond re
porters. Wo returned to our camp on
the north side of tho rlvor without fur
ther Interruption.
Tho noxt morning boforo wo had
cooked our coffco or had our break
fast, wo wero ordorod to return to tho
south bank of tho river. Wo took tho
samo position that wo had occupied
tho night beforo, gathered in a fow
prisoners, a wagonload of flour that
hnd been abandonod, nnd many other
things. I never shall forgot two pris
oners wo captured, ono a long, lank
North Carolinian, tho othor a short
Irishman. Tho North Carolinian com
menced to whine nnd beg, saying ho
hadn't fired a shot But Pat says: "I
fired a shot and will do it again It I
Set a chance." Wo had Bomo rospoct
for tho Irishman, but very llttlo for
tho man that whined. After wo had
accomplished what wo were ordered
to do, wo again returned to our camp
on tho north bank for tho purposo of
getting our breakfast, after which wo
wero to proparo to march.
Whllo wo wero doing this, the 118th
Pa. crossed tho rlvor and took tho
samo position that wo had occupied
an hour beforo. Thoy had boon In
line but a short tlmo whon a strong
forco of tho enemy camo out of tho
woods and attacked tho 118th with
such vigor thnt thoy woro compelled
to retreut. They woro driven ovur
tho bank Into tho river, somo below
tho dam nnd somo above Tho ford
was just bolow tho dam. Thoso that
went in abovo tho dam had to swim
for tholr lives, and I understood nt
tho time that bomo woro drowned.
I believe that this was tho 118th's
first experience as thoy had Just come
to the front They woro known as
tho Corn Exchnngo Roglmont, tho
Pride of Philadelphia. Seventy or 75
of their number wero killed as this,
their first, exporionco. Wo were on
tho north bank of tho rlvqr, whoro wo
could boo ovory movo that was made,
nnd yet we could not get to them In
time to render any assistance Whoso
fault was It that caused tho slaughter
of those noblo Pennsylvania boys?
