In the lower corridor—which as yet has only been explored—it is computed that there are some two hundred coffins, and the second corridor is precise people generally walk around. It means ‘nobly elevated,” especially in character, and was coined by Sir Walter Scott.

The Language of Animals, From the New York Evening Post. In the June number of the New Review Prof. R. I. Garner publishes the results of some ex- periments made by him at the National Zoolog- feal Gnrden at Washington, with a view to de- termining the moaning of the sounds uttered by apes. These experiments are so fascinating in their suggestiveness as to deserve more atten- tion than they seem to havo received in this ccuntry. Prof. Garner entertained the theory that every sound uttered by an animal bad a meaning that could be understood by every other animal of the same kind, and it occurred to at if he could learn to imitate these sounds he might be able to establish his theory. ‘To this end, with the co-operation of Dr. Baker, stately and ponderous, is accused of having originated the phrase, “by hook or crook, which means in any way or by any method,and it is in this way that Americans are accused of obtaining the “almighty dollar,” this last being fan expression fathered by Washington Irving. which is so apt that it has had large use. ‘The modern use of the word “rate” ax an in- terjection can hardly be explained. Sometimes it expresses incredulousness and is uttered dis- daintully just after the climax of an exagger- ated statement. Sometimes it is used to ex- reas disgust and if rightly proncunced is ef- fective. Its tse asa notn bas a place in the dictionary of slang as one who deserts his party Or associates, ent printers one who worke at Jess than established rates. ~ Lord Stanhope, also known as Lord Mahon, an English statesman and historiau, who died In 1876, gives this intorosting history concern- ing it: “It chanced that not long after th accession of the house of Hanover, some of the brown, that is, the Gorman or Norway, rats | the director of the zoological garden, he placed were firet brought over to this country (in | in separate rooms two monkeys that lind been some timber, it is said) and being much | caged together and then arranged a phono- graph nenr the cage of the femsle, recording the sounds uttered by her upon the cylinder. the machine was then placed near the cage containing the male, and the record repented to him, and his conduct closely studied. ‘The surprise and perplexity of the male were evi- dent, Ho traced the sounds to the horn from which they came, and, failing to find his mate, he thrust his hand and arm into the horn quite up to his shoulder, withdrew it, and peeped into the horn again and again. He would then re- treat, and again cautiously approach the horn, which he examined with evident interest. ‘The expressions of his faco were indeed study.” Similar experiments were made with other mon- . and having thusacquireda fund of speech, Professor Garner devoted his time to imitating the sounds aa they were repeated by the phono- graph until he attained a considerable degree of perfection. Having sutisfied himself that a certain sound was the name employed for milk in the ape lan- gunge ho uttered this sound to a capuchin monkey. The monkey's attention was at once arrested, and the sound being repeated three or four times to him he presently repeated it himself and then turned to a smail pan kept in the cage for him to drink from. ‘The sound be- ing aguin repeated by Prof. Garner, the mon- key brought the pan to the front of the cago and repeated his previous utterance. Milk was given to him, which he drank, and bolding up the pan repeated the same sound a number of times. From other experiments of this char- acter it appeared that the sound stood for any liquid used for satisfying thirst and probably for the ideas both of thirst aud drinking. An- other serice of experimentagave a sound stand- ing for food or eating and hunger, and still others gave sounds for pain and sickness, and probably for storin or weathor. Prof. Garner describes the sounds at some iength, but as the consonant elements can barely be detected, they are not very articulate. Anotlier sound was thought by Prof. Garne to bea “note of alarm,” and he satisfied him- self of the correctness ¢f this theory by utter- ing the sound to a monkey that he was feeding. ‘The monkey at once sprang to the top of the cage and asthe sound was continued became almos: frantiz with fright. ‘The terror inspired was indeed vo grout that Prof. Garnez way not afterward able to approach the creature, al- though they had previously beea on very good terms. Altogether the simian tongue, accord- ing to Prof. Garner, has cight or nine sounds which may be changed by modulation into three or four times that number. Ail of these sounds curd with F sharp on the piano, having a range of four octuves, and seem to ‘be half between # whistle and a pure vocal sound. There is, of course, nothing novel in the iden that animals converse with each othor aud Sir John Lubbock’s investigations convinced him that ants have some means of communication that auswers the purpose of speech. Indeetl, it isan old saying among the Hindus, we be- lieve, that monkeys know how to talk, but ab- stronger than the black, or till then, the com- mon rat, they in many ‘places quite extirpated the latter. ‘The word (both the noun and the Verb to rat) was firat, as we have seen, leveled at the converts to tho government of George I, but has, by degrees, obtained a wider meaning and come to be plied to any suddea and mer- cenary change in politics. In the book of Job, the oldest literature ex- tant, and according to John J. Ingalls, “the highest production of the human intellect,” appears the sentence: “f am escaped with the skin of my teeth,” which is modernized y the skin of my’ teeth,” and gives the | iden of @ narrow escape, One 40 clone as to | be just by the thickness of the skin on the teeth, which fs so thin that no microscopist has yet been able to find it. ‘To cast in the teeth” means to throw defiant repronches or insults spitefully, as one would cust a stone at the exposed teeth of a snarling dog. “Tooth and nail” denotes the manner of an action full of frenzied fury, typitied by biting scratching, aa when two Delligorent eats make the fur fly. ———_+e-_—___ “AND WHO WOULDN'T?” Dangers That Pretty Girls Have to Face in Mexico, From the Detroit Sun. Beron Strauss said the American women were so popular in Mexico that they in- terfered with the wheels of justice in that re- public. “The American women,” he said to a re- porter, “‘go about Mexico as they would in this country, while the Mexican women are caged up like birds. The only way to mako love to them is to stand off some hundred yards and stare. “The pretty senorita sits in her open win- dow, and you can only look at ber.
