Macao, July 17. Residents of Praca Loka d'Avila were treated to an hour's fun last Tuesday afternoon when Chico and his mate, a pair of monkeys: be- longing to the Children's Park at Praia Grande, escaped from their cage and evaded all attempts by the keeper and a score of helpers to re-capture them. Chico pro- vided further entertainment by climbing housetops and hurling dedance at the crowds watching hiin belcw. It was not until the female of the species had been caught in a sack that the other, sorrowfully descended to earth and ambled his way back to his. cage in the park.
