HARVARD MONKEY HUNTERS MAKE THRILLING CAPTURE

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

The climax of one of the most exciting and successful monkey hunts ever held under the auspices of the Harvard Medical School came last night at 6.15 o'clock when Dr. Carl W. Walter, Arthur Tracy Cabot Fellow, slipped the ether cone over the head of a fine male thirty-pounder.

The monkey, escaping Tuesday, six times climbed up to the top of the Medical School powerhouse and when its lashing tall was almost secured by a waiting posse on the cornice, it turned and jumped to a dormer six and a half stories below.

Late yesterday it crawled into a hole on the top of a tenement house inhabited by the Medical School maids, whence it worked its way in between the wall and the plaster. Once it was cornered Dr. Walter shoved a pillow dripping with ether into the hole and at last the mandril gave up the struggle and was retrieved with a boathook amid the applause of all the budding obstetricians.
