TRAINING A MONKEY. CHICAGO WOMAN SATISFIES HER THIRST FOR KNOWLEDGE. Ifrgrn • Baby Mnnkay and After Bring • Ing It Op to Fall firnwth C'oaeladas That tha Simian Kara It I'rnna to I»Q Wrong. ONACITA 18 THE cause of all sorts of queries propounded by the members ot the JjBkt View wo men’s club, of Chi cago. In short, Donaelta Is being talked about, and soon all tbe world will know of Dona clta, for Donaelta’* mistress Is prepsrlng the manuscript which shall tell a scientific magazine Ell about the wonderful monkey which Bbs adopted when It was but one month old, and made an object of constant study and scientific Investigation. When Mrs. Benjamin B. Wiley, of No. tt Waterloo court, Chicago, sent to Cen tral America for a young capuchin monkey It was for the purpose of test ing, by actual experience and observa tion, how near the monkey, the evolu tionists' avowed human progenitor, ap proached to-<lay the human family In habits, Instinct* and Intelligence. To this end she has aimed not to teach the creature she has had tinder experiment any of the tricks so generally learned by imitation, but rather to ascertain how far by Ihe natural process of affiliation, tbe untaught wild creature could bo made to approach the human family. Ho from the day the monkey, at the ,»ge of one month, toothiesn and almost Tialrless, and fresh from the forests of Nicaragua, wan deposited, a very sick and helpless bundle of weakly, moan ing monkcylsm In Its new mother's arms, It has been subjected to the same maternal care a child would have re ceived For four years has this strange re lationship been kept up. For four years has this little creature slept In a bed Ilk* a little Christian, fed on the diet the family fares on, been taught and had moral principles instilled In its diminutive self. For four years has It been petted and scolded and spanked and praised and loved—like any other darling. And with what result? Rome few profess to see s marvelous development, which places the animal alongside of Its human kin, while others contend that "a monk’s a monk, for a’ that.” He that as It may, an undoubtedly clover little beastle Is this cspuehln monkey. Its brown eyes sparkle with Intelligence. Kvery phase of feeling and emotion Is by turn expressed In this creature’s mobile features. Yet, not alone by facial expression are Its thoughts conveyed, for It talks—In plain, understandable, monkey lan guage. This language, Mrs. Wiley says, y Is phonetic In character, and consists of It basic sounds. These, with their varying Inflections, constitute the mon key’s language. The same tone Is al ways used to express the same emotion, and from long familiarity with each tone and its inflections, the monkey’s mind upon any and all subjects Is clear ly discerned by Its mistress. Thus: a hall’ note In C Indicates contentment of mind. The same note, with a sharp, rising Inflection, shows that her lady ship’s mind Is in a purturbed condition. The same note, ending In a trill to G, Indicates extreme danger, such as when a hoy Is chasing her. When she Is hun gry there Is a plaintive note in K. with out Inflection. When her hunger la satisfied, she expresses thanks by a soft, dropping inflection to the same note. Although her own language is purely Dhonetic she is auite mlslress of the English language, so far as understand ing it goes!, tone apparently being no factor therein. To demonstrate that her speech was understood Mrs. Wiley uttered in exactly the same tone of voice different commands, such as, "Dona, shut the door;” "Dona, leave those grapes alone;” "Dona, come to Uis,” and in no instance was there any confusion of action and thought. The monkey obeyed each command, though given In exactly the siume voice and in Uje same manner. ' There is one point, however, human like though she be In other respects, upon which Donaclta radically differs from at least a goodly proportion of the human family. Hhe Is devoid of all moral sense is absolutely conscience less. She steals and lies afterward about It In tbs most flagrant msnuer. gho breaks every comuiaudment with out a blush, or, so far as has yet been discovered, any sense or appreciation ef her natural depravity. And all pro sept Is simply thrown away upon her to this respect. After four years of un tiring effort to Inculcate In her prln elpiee of right and Imbue her with a nice distinction between right and wrong, the truth must be admitted, she Is Irrecialmably bad and utterly devoid sf all sense of moral obligation True, ghe shows, libs many another culprit, a knowledge uf IMUSgreeelon. and el hlblts fear and a dread at the cones uueu.ee of her actions, but of the moral tMuttif involved Itunaelta la Innocsnt sf Ms very name .

For a time her life wae | despaired of, but prompt and energetic measures, together with a stomach pump, saved the little creature's life. Of her mistress she Is Inordinately fond, refusing to eat or be comforted In any manner In her absence. The object next to her mistress In her affections Is a little orphan eat, and this affection Is returned In due measure, albeit this tyrannical Donaclla, through a pure love of mischief, sometimes occasions her cat friend much pain by extracting his whiskers, which she gravely uses as toothpicks Is this tin d« slecle monkey capable of reasoning? Mrs. Wiley asserts, after much study and observstlon, that It Is not. Hhe has made various tests and finally gives It ns her opinion that the brain of her pet Is one lohed and Incapable of entertain ing two Ideas at the same time, hence the reasoning power Is wanting. EFFECTS OF CIGARETTES. Hetnarbshle RfpirlmraU Perforated t»r Prof. M. t:.' Hiimpti*. Some definite facts and figures show log the exact effects of smoking cigar ettes have at last been obtained by a scientist, who has experimented upon young college students, says the New York World. This scientist Is Prof. If, C. Rumpus, professor of comparative anatomy at Brown university. The student to be experimented upon tlrst. lay down on a couch, and bis right Hrm, which was bare lo the shoulder, was extended upon a low table, with the palm of the band upward, Prof, Rumpus then look up a narrow strip | of bamboo about three feet In length \ and very light. Upon one part of the wrist over a , bone and In a place where It would (»<• | steady a cork was fastened. To this ; «v.4. t.nmlion Kirin u/mu ufftvptl Annth#*i cork was placed on the wrist directly over the vein, where the pulse heat Is most easily felt. The end of the bamboo atrip rested on this second cork and It rose and fell with each pulsation. This motion was plainly visible to all the rlsss of Brown university students who sur rounded Prof. Bumpus during his ex periments. The drat record taken was the nor mal pulse of the student on the sofa. This fluctuated from 62 to 67 a minute, rising In one Instance to 71. The total beats of the normal pulse for five minutes waa 332, or an average of 66 2-3. Tbe Brown student on the sofa then began to smoke a cigarette, "Inhaling” 1 the smoke, aa do nearly all cigarette 1 smokers. Ilia pulse Immediately jumped up. The first minute It reached 75, which waa a higher record than any normal pulsation could show for a single min ute. During the flrat five minutes the pulse fluctuated from 71 to 77 a minute j The total for the whole five minutes was 376. This showed that cigarette j smoking made a normal pulse which j averaged 66 2-3 a minute Jump to an j average of 75 1-5 heats a minute. Upon a second trial, ami after wait ing three minutes his pulse went up to 83, making a total of 896, or an average of over 79 for five minutes. A third trial was then taken after the student had smoked two cigarettes. His ; pulse by this time remained steadily j over 80. In one Instance It reached the extra ordinary height of 89 beats per minute. The total for five minutes was 420 beats, j an average of exactly 84 beats per min- ! ute. It will thus be seen that the normal pulse of the student lying upon a [ lounge and unaffected by cigarettes, | averaged liti 2-3 beats per minute, and | that after smoking two cigarettes It reached an average of 84 beats per 1 minute. The cigarette smoking had I added more than 17 beats per minute to i the normal pulse, an acceleration of al- j most 25 per cent. Bach heat of the pulse could he easily ! counted by means of the rising and j _— a i.i..... J _« lluropu* held n watch in hi* band, while one of the Brown unlvernlty student* made the record.

PbU« Teeth Supplied Where Kilanl tinier* Would Anawur. "It Is not to my Interest to toll this t» the public," said a dentist to a Nsw York Journal reporter yesterday, "but It la nevertheless a fact, which no den tal surgeon will undertake to galna*r> that there la scarcely ever any neces sity for a person to lose a tooth, no matter what alia It. If people were better posted In thl* matter few Would have artificial teeth, because they would not have their natural teeth ex tracted. 1 While many dentists encourage tba extraction of teeth because they can make much more money by making a set than by filling or 'treating' a tooth I do not do so. I treat people con scientiously, and, as you see, I have a pretty good trade. Kor Instance, If • 1 tooth aches for no apparent cause, the chances are.that If Is what wa call a ‘dead looth.’ The nerve Is dead. It should In that ease be 'opened'- that la the enamel covering the hone on tba outer end should he drilled off and a steel probe forced through the flhroua bone aa far as the root. If a bad odor adheres to the proh« when It la with- | drawn, that la proof that the nerve la dead and that the tooth Is beginning to ulcerate. The nerve should be ax- i traded with a hook probe, when It will 1 be seen to he dark, Instead of whlta, Ita natural color. An antiseptic should be Injected Into the opening thu* mads with the probe, then a demulcent, and when It has ceased to gather pus or gas, ! or to be painful, It should he filled with ^ a temporary filling, and If at the end of say eight days tbe pain has not re turned It can bo filled permanently. This tooth may last for many years. It is the kind of tooth which, when neg lected, swells a person's cheek, which old-fashioned dentists have at limes cut In order to get at the seat, of tbe trouble, "Ulcerated teem can lie treated in a similar manner, with equally good re j suits. Thla Is the kind of trouble which , Is Is most prevalent and which haa been j the cause of people losing more teeth 1 than any other ailment. "A decayed tooth that Is noL painful, If properly filled, should last for years. And even If painful, It could he pre served If treated a* above and filled when the pain has been dispelled. "People should have their teeth ex •mined by a competent, and conscien tious dentist occasionally, and a* soon ; as a cavity la discovered It should be filled. "There Is scarcely a tooth that cannot be saved by a Rood dentist. If a dentist advises you to have a tooth extracted and you know It la not hopelessly gone, no matter how painful, go to another dentist and tell him that you want that ! tooth aaved at nil hazard*. He will save it for you. This may nol, from a mer cenary point of view, be business, but It la the truth," -I A NEW STORY OF ORANT. ft* (fid Not liar* More to Kat Than Ha Saadet D. R. Garrison told a story to Gen. Schofield at the Dent house which Illus trates to a certain extent the kind heartedness of Gen. Grant, says the 8t. Ix>ul* Republic. Grant waa a great ’ lover of horses, and while he was pres- j Ident he came on a vlalt to St. f/>uls and Mr. Garrison, at that time president of j the old Pacific road, took him out to his ; farm. They started off In a buggy for a drive, ami after going some distance met an old man going along on a horse. The man was In Ills shirt sleeves and wore a straw hat, but Grant recognized him, and, stopping the buggy, he got out and, walking up to the old man, put out his hand and snld: "Hello, Uncle Ben! How are you and the old woman getting along?" The old man was Uncle Ben Sapplng ton. He welcomed the president and ■aM that he was getting along very well. He remarked that they were hap py aa long aa they had enough to eat and a pipe and a little tobacco. "Uncle Ben, wouldn't you like to be postmaster of Meramec township?" asked the president. Uncle Hen said he would not object and Grant shook him by the hand and said: "God bless you and your wife. Unci* Ben, I think of you often.” When Grant got back In the buggy the tears were streaming from his eyes and he said to Mr. Garrison: “l'oor old Uncle Ben! He has a big heart. I re member," he said, "when I and my wife, living In that house over there, did not have any more to eat than w# needed, aud old Uncle Hen would come around to the house at night and leave a basket of provisions on our doorstep. He was afraid to come and give them to us. thinking that he would possibly hurt our feelings God bless his memory!” Uncle Hen was made postmaster and after living to a ripe old age he Joined the great majority and was followed by Graut a few years ago. a M»U«I «r r«llMM.

In 1889, the nope of Aus tria has centered In this young nephew of Emperor Francis Joseph. His father Is the heir apparent, It Is true, but Archduke Charles Louis, next In line to the throne, Is now an old man, having been born in 1833, older and with far less hope of living, so feeble Is he, than Is the emperor himself. King Humbert of Italy does not And In his only son and heir a man of an Iron frame and a masterful will like bis. Of an entirely different calibre Is the young Prince of Naples, a slight, delicate boy, yet in the early twenties, who has so delivered himself over to the obsequious flattery and the cajole ments of the foreigners In Naples and Rome that he has weakened his frame by dissipation, and bids fair to have a very short lease of life, Indeed. His condition Is even more serlons than Is hinted at In the Italian news of the day. If the remaining royal families are carefully Investigated, a strange fact may be noted that there is, with one exception, no heir to a throne in Europe who Is strong and lusty and gives promise of a vigorous reign after the present ruler passes away. The possi ble exception Is Prince Royal Gustavus of Sweden, a young man of thirty seven years of age, the son of King Oscar II., who married Princess Vic toria of Daden, a granddaughter of famous old William I. of Germany, and who has developed no vices and ac quired no maladies. This prince Is an •energetic, athletic young man, has lit erary tastes, and will In all likelihood jenjoy a long life.

He Is a splendid specimen of young Germany, tall, vig orous and strong of arm and leg, while young William Is almost weak and puny beside him, thin and narrow chested and easily tired. Belgium Is ruled over to-day by Leo pold II., born In 1825, a still vigorous middle-aged man. He shows no signs of breaking down, and Is one of the healthiest sovereigns of Europe. Prince Phllllppe, Count of Klanders, his broth er end two years younger, has for a score of years been Incurably deaf, and is the most of the time In wretched health. Prince Phllllppe Is heir to the throne, from the fact that Leopold II. has no sons. Ho far as Great Britain Is concerned, It has often been remarked that H. R. W. the Prince ef Wales, can hardly be regarded as a man of fins physlqus and likely to live many years longer. While there Is no Indication of any spe cial disease, the prince Is a man who has lived so well and so actively that In middle age bis constitution Is con siderably Impaired. He would hardly be a fair risk for a well conducted In surance company. His son, the Duke of Vork, has never entirely recovered from the attack of typhoid fever he had some years ago, though be has always been In better physical condition than his brother, the Duke of Clarence and Avondale, ever was. Nor Is the new beby, Queen Vic toria's great grandson, as healthful a child as could be wished. It Is gener ally believed that he will not sit upon the throne. The czarevitch had a terrible fall from the maintop of a ship to the deck during the trip around the world of the three princes (himself, the present czar and Prince George of Greece) In the summer of 1891. This fall seriously In jured George's spine, and he had to dis continue the trip and return home. Then consumption, a malady now he reditary In the family of the Roman l/lin, III, J II VfllM ll« B'/Jl/UI Uv'l IU Athens and Algiers. Finally he settled down In the Caucasus, where he has lived since the close of 1892. The romance alluded to concerned a pretty telegraph girl of Tlflls, Mile. Isch, whom George ardently desired to marry, and probably did, morganatlcal ly. It was only upon the stern com mand of his father, the czar, that be fin ally gave her up. After the late czar's death bis condition grew rapidly worse. I^ate this spring he expressed a strong desire to see once more the palace of Peterbof, where he bad been brought up. The change of climate proved seri ous for him, especially as the Peterbof palace at that time bad fallen Into an unsanitary condition. He then was taken to Denmark to visit his grand father, King Christian. The climate of Denmark proved quite as dangerous for him as the cold of northern Russia, PRINCE FERDINAND, nod materially hastened his coming death. While tho czarevitch Is to-day tho foremost Invalid In Europe, attention 1s being directed more and more to wards Duke Francis Ferdinand of Aus tria. The story of the Hapsburgs, the royal house of this empire, has been unhappy, for epilepsy has pursued the entire family and seized many of Its members. In 1888 everyone of ninety eight archdukes and archduchesses of this family had that dread disease In some form or other. That consumption should have seized Francis Ferdinand, who, since the death of Rudolph, has been the Idol of the Austrian people, la remarkable, for bla life has been a vigorous one. For years he has been An untiring officer in the Austrian army. And noted for hla skill nnd endurance. He spends the days sit ting silently In a tent pitched tn a little garden on (he hay of Cigala. Hie sole amusement Is looking out upon the see, save on the Infrequent days when be takes a short donkey ride. He will spend tbs winter tn Egypt and he may never return from that country. It seems to be general debility that Is sapping away the life of young Victor Emanuel, prince of Naples. Of late he has been cruising about the Imvant In hopes of getting strength.

Robust and vigorous as bo is, she worries over his health as though he were a confirmed invalid; in the I heyday of his maturity coddling him as !

Never by any chance does she confess his right to free action, bound as he Is In the chains of her tyrannous affection. In the end she makes him what she has so long fancied him to be—a backbons lesa valetudinarian, whom the sun scorches to fever and the east wind chills to pneumonia—one who has lost the fruit by “faddlng" about the flower.
