BAKER Dorchester, Mass. INDIA'S SACRED MONKEYS. They Arc a But They Must. Xot Heroinm. An English gentleman who has lived many years in.

India tells some queer stories about the sacred monkeys that are a'great nuisance in parts of that country. one is -Mowed to molest them. They run about the streets, help themselves to whatever they plwisu at the shops, rob orchards and gardens, and play havoc generally. To thrafjh them is regarded as a misdemeanor, to shoot a monkey might cause a second mutiny. The yentZt'inan had a garden where grew delicious fruits.

The sacred monkeys easily scaled the walls and helped themselves. They ivere not content with simply eating, but amused themselves with throwing half-munched fruit each other. To shoot these pests was out of the question, and to hit them with stones was impossible, as they easily dodged any missile that might, be thrown at them. An idea struck the Englishman one day, and he at once proceeded to carry it into effect with great success. He got a large basket of the largest potatoes that were to be found and had them boiled.

When they were scalding hot he had basket aiid potates placed under one of the trees. The monkeys were watching these movements from the trees. Presently every monkey seized a hot potato, and then followed the most unearthly screeches and chatter- ings, A monkey will never let go any article of food that that he once gets hold of, even if he has to die, and these monkeys, true their nature, would not drop the hot potatoes. They held them in one hand and then in the other, and then they would take a bite' and, scald their mouths, and roll in the dust, writhing with pain, but never letting: the potatoes once out of their grasp. They ate up the potatoes and then disappeared over the wall and never returned.

The Englishman once witnessed a pathetic, as well as heroic, scene in one of the city squares, in which the sacred monkeys were the actors. He saw a number of raonkej's seated and standing in a large circle, and a female monkey hugging and, wailing over the dead body of her baby that had just been killed by a cobra's bite. The other females were trying to console her by caresses, while the males appeared to be in earnest consultation among themselves. In the center of the circle was the large cobra that had inflicted the fatal bite, coiled and with head erect, watching the enemies by whom he was surrounded. Suddenly a young and athletic male monkey sprang into the' arena.

He carefully approached the cobra, which prepared itself to strike, The monkey made a few passes, and just as the snake was about to dart its head he sprang to one side, and then over the cobra. This was repeated so often and with such astounding rapidity that the cobra became bewildered, when the monkey seized the by the neck and proceeded to crush its head to a jelly by rubbing it on the ground with all his might The 'snake tried to free by around the monkey's neck, but in vain; its struggles became weaker and weaker until life was extinct. When the snake's head had been reduced to a. shapeless mass the young simian hero dropped the cobra and executed a series of hops and somersaults. Up to that moment the other monkeys had maintained the most anxious silence," watching every movement of the combatants with eager interest.

The snake's death, however, was the signal for the most joyous chatterings and gambols. They took hold of the conqueror of the snake, patted him on the head, scratched his back, danced around him and gave every manifestation of their great appreciation of his valorous achievement. The poor mother carried about her dead babe for two days Y. Times. OF GEHERAL INTEREST.

HOHT it Can 'Be Distlnpulfihed From tha Baser Minerals.

Pure gold is so soft that it would soon be. worn away by use, and it is always alloyed.with aTvarying proportion of copper or silver, usually about one- tenth. Pure gold is said to be twenty- four karats. Thus eighteen karat gold contains eighteen parts of pure metal in twenty-four, or is three-quarters pure. Many alloys of base metals can be made which very strongly resemble gold in color and luster; but, in the absence of a complete chemical test, the highly specific gravity of gold (19.3) is the test for its purity, though this has been 'imitated by covering the heavier but cheaper metal platinum gold.

A wise commander may pardon the reclaessness of young soldiers, full of animal spirits, and ambitious to distinguish themselves by deeds of daring. But he will frown upon the veteran whose wantonness of courage makes him foolhardy, when duty does not oblige him to expose himself.

Baron Malortie tells of a Waterloo veteran, a Colonel Volger, who did a very foolish thing in the first Holstein campaign. On tlie day before the storming of Duppel, he was on duty in the trenches. The gallant Danes who defended pcl shot so accurately that no Prussian dared look over the earthworks. Suddenly, to tho astonishment of his officers, Colonel Volger was seen riding his old gray mare up and down in front of the earthworks, amid a shower of bullets. Thinking he had gone to inspect the outposts, no one ventured to make a remark.

But when he passed for the third time the place where the officers had congregated behind the breastworks, the Senior Captain stepped out and called the Colonel's attention to his needless exposure, and entreated him not to court death in this reckless manner. The Colonel grinned, thanked the captain for his warning, and then explained his conduct. "There's no danger," said he; "thej are a parcel of-duffers; can't shoot a bit; they miss even my old mare, though I've treated them to a splendid target. The mare is done for; that's the reason I have been walking her up and down for the last quarter of an hour. It's thirty pounds in my pocket if they kill her, but I've no luck." (The Government allowed thirty pounds to an officer if his horse was killed in battle.) At that moment a bullet struck the Colonel's sword-belt, and, slipping on a buckle, made the round of his portly waist, slightly grazing the skin.

The Colonel shrugged his shoulders and-unfastened his belt. "Captain, you may be right," he said; "it is safer on the other side; those fellows. capable of missing the mare and treating me to another shot higher up. a foot lower and the mare would have had it, and I should have thirty pounds. Provoking, 'pon my honor!" Following the Captain, he slowly rode into the trenches, where he'dismounted, and patted the old mare, saying-: "I dare say she won't sony to be spared tliis time." The mare was not hit during- the whole campaign.
