Pltiladelphda Press. Bought the Whole Term. A Hoosier, who, was jogging into In- diaitapolis the other day, looked so down in the mouth that an. acquaint- ance halted him to ask if any of the family were dead. "No," was the rather regretful reply. "Anybody sick?" ' "Guess not. The old woman was licking the children when I came away.' "Then what's the matter?" "I've been busted by a railroad." "How?" "Why, you know them five acres of mine out there?

Elated with his suc- cess, he next seized a plaster image of a child bearing aloft a basket of fruit, and the child shared the fate of the black monkey. On the cigar counter stood a bronze kerosene lamp with a highly ornamented globe, used for lighting cigars. His monkey ship in.- spected this, smelled it and expressed his disgust by sendieg the lamp after the plaster images. Canned goods, fruits, candies .and other wares in turn attractedhis attention, and were scat- tered promiscuously around the floor. Finally he found a basket of eggs, pick- ed one up and examined_it critically. He tried to bite it, bat his mouth was not large enough to encompass the egg, so he threw it on the floor, where, of course, it was broken. The monkey was attracted by the golden yolk. He got down from his perch and examin- ed the thing closely, ' thoughtfully scratched his head, then returned to the basket of eggs. He took' fip another, looked at it, then at the one spread out upon the floor, and evidently concluded that a broken egg was better than an unbroken one, and he acted promptly on this conclusion. One by one the eggs were fired at the stove, at the walls and at various objects, and in a few. minutes the interior of the restaurant looked as though it had been throug an earthquake. By this time quite a crowd had been attracted to the; windows, and the spectators were enjoyingthe scene immensely, when a rear oor opened and an employe made his appearance on the scene.
