Of all kinds experimental most with rattlesnakes

One afternoon seated myself on little knoll in

or newspaper with me-and had been enjoying my
self for some time, when espied copperhead max

course threw down my book and cigar, and proceed

rascal made a rush for the hole but / caught his
tail as he got nearly in and erked him some twenty
feet backward. He threw himself into coil in no
time, and waited for me to to pitch in. But con-
cluded not to let him try his hole again. After
while he started for it, stopping when stirred to
coil himself up; but as | kept pretty quiet, he re-
covered confidence and again went in. Again jerk
ed him out. No sooner did he hit the ground than
he made grand rush for the hole in Straight line

again, but it woudn work. was too quick for him.
This time he lay in coil half an hour, without

The Red skins.

Frenchmen dearly lovely joke, especially lseza-
~ one, and particularly if they can play it on
their countrymen. A New York correspondent Of .
French paper sends the following to his deluded
Paris editor. s.
The Frenchman's diatribe is in many respects
equal to the great Arrowsmith hoax and is superior
to it in extravaganza. What a glorious history Of
American life and customs the Partisan letter writer
and the veracious Arrowsmith might get mp! The
London Times of course would publish it, and would
endorse its truth. The Frenchman's correspondent
says
The office Of the Courier des Etats Unis isthronged
every day with Indians, who come to ask for admis-
sion into civilized life.
One day there entered Camanche The tribe Of
Camanches is the most warlike in America. y
"Paleface p said the Indian, are you the editor Of
the Courier des Etats Unis w s

rampant between him and his visitor till the latter
should declare his intentions. 4aa

"Thank you ! And as pledge of my good inten-

The Cherokee stood aside, and enter Delaware, ar

There was nobody near, nobody near

On pillow Of stone in roof1ess street
Nobody heard his last faint moan, F
Or knew when his sad heart ceased to beat.

But the stars looked down with plying eyes,
And the chill winds passed with waiting sound,
