The New York Times (Rep.) entirely disap-
proves of the project to order a new election
in Louisiana under Federal supervision. It
says: ut is substantially substitution of
Federal agencies for State agencies. 1t is an
assumption by Congress of the power to in
terfere indefinitely in State elections. If this
position is correct, then it will be only neces-
sary for the seats of State officers to be con-
tested, and for the contest to be doubtful or
intricate one, in order that Congress may
seize the occasion to upset any State Govern
ment and order new election under Federal
officials"

Metal Leafs for Decorative Purposes.

Foreign journals describe a process
used by the Japanese in the production
of metal leaf used for decorative pur-
poses. Thirty or forty thin plates Of
gold, silver, copper, and various alloys
are laid the one over the other, In a
given order, and soldered together at
the edges. SO that a stout plate of metal
is formed of the whole. Punches of va
rious shapes-conical, pyramidal, and
with triangular, square, Or pentagonal
sid sj-are now used to make pattern
OF perforated figures, which exhibit on
their inner sides c0ncentric circles,
triangles, and other forms correspond
ing to the punches used.
The plate so prepared is hammered
and rolled till it becomes very thin, the
holes disappear, aud the figures have
spread out--preserYing, however, their
parallclism. A number Of broken,
straight, and curved lines are thus pro:
duced, which, as in a Damascus blade,
are free of each other, though consistent
| in themselves in the same metal, theil
effect being further enriched by the use
OF acids to modify the colors. 1t will be
easily understood that thin plates pre-
pared in this way, having an extremely

Combat Between Serpent and Rat,
IFrom the Shreveport lLal Times

A friend yesterday gave us an account
of desperate fight which he recently
witnessed between cOtton-mOuth or
highland moccasin snake, about 81 feet
long and large rat. The fight had evil
dently been going on under the rieking.
room of a Clubhouse, near which our
friend and companion were standing.
In the struggle the combatants came
from beneath the house and within few
feet of them. The rat was evidently the
DISABLING party, and would rush upon
hyena. The snake would occasionally
| make It's cell and strike the rat, knock
ing him two feet.
| Nothing daunted, however, he would
return to- the assault, biting the snake
| wherever he could catch hold, and shak-
| ing him like terrier killing rat. At
times the snake would get him in its
folds, but the little fellow would strug-
| Gle out from the dangerous embrace.
Both combatants seemed totally eblivi-
GUS of the presence of the gentlem en-, al
| though they followed alter them only
| five or six feet distant. The snake fre-
quently endeavored to escape by climb
| ing q cotton stalk, but the rat would
seize him by the tail, tearing the flesh
away and finally pulling him down,

They fought in this manner at least

| At length the snake stretched itself out
to all appearance dead, when the raj
took position two or three yards off
and quietly sat down and licked himself

the head, which killed 1t, even If it were
not dead before. The flesh was almos
entirely torn off for at least foot up it

and were absent half an hour. On thei
