A REMARKABLE LASE.-Our latest
snake story caps the climax. A gentleman
Of this city informs us that he has for som g
time past been suffering from an oppres-
sive feeling about the chest and stomach,
frequently of such It painful nature that he
would find it impossible to walk erect. At
these times he would also be seized with a
feeling OF faintuess and could with difficult
~ keep from falling. He took various pre-
scrlptions without experiencing more than
temporary relief; until last Monday morn
ing. when his stomach was relieved OF an
object which, npon investigation. actually
proved to be, to all appearances, mocca-
sin snake, about twelve inches IN length
and large in proportion. though devoid OF
the rough appearance Characteristic OF the
''out door" reptile. Since that time the
patient has improved wonderfully as re-
garns his general health and declares that
he ssfeels like new man." He says he
thinks he must have introduced the reptile
into his stomach while drinking water at
a spring, as he can account for its presence
there in no other manner Wilmington

THE ENOAIENAL CHANGE THAT WAS
EFFECTED BY BOLT OF LIGHTNING

THE PHEN oAIENAL CHANGE THAT WAS
EFFECTED BY BOLT OF LIGHTNING.
Seldom has the electric fluid done more
curious thing than on Monday morning at
8 O'Clock, at the residence of III. [ Guild.
MI. Guild and his wife were occupying Il
bedroom in the second story, and Lottie
a bright faced child of years of age, with
golden curls, occupying double Cut Oh the
first floor, in company with her grandmoi h
er, Mrs. j. J. Ames, aged about so years.
This cot was placed under the opening Of
the main flue OF the chimney. The first
recollection that day Mr. Guild has of the
situation was that he was on the floor OF
his bedroom with his wife clinging to him
and screaming. He turned ON the light,
and at first glance discovered that the
patches Of plastering in the ceiling of his
room and in the rooms adjoining we're
hanging over his head and the lathing pro-
truding. The shingles in the vicinity of
the Chimney were torn up. He then con-
cluded that lightning had done the work.
The next thought was of the grandmother
ard his daughter, Lottie, below. Upon ar
irving III their room the little innocent, her
face, head of curis, and hands black with

hands at the appearance OF the grand

Upon examination, Mrs. Ames was found
to be in an insensible condition, and a doc

The child told the story of how the fire
came down the chimney, and knocked her.
self and ''gramma' from the cot to the
floor. The child was then subjected to a
severe bath, and then was discovered the
most remarkable feature OF the whole
affair. The profuslon of curls, which were
Of IL usual length, reaching almost to the
cliild's waist, and which had been Of
bright golden hue, were of blue-black or
inlzy color from the roots to the tip. A
closer examination revealed the still furth-
Ell singular fact that the scalp of the head
was also colured. ihdeliby it seemed, the
same as the hair. UP to O'Clock Oh MOI
day afternoon, after lapse Of fifteen hours
and after REPEATED washings with ammonia
and other solutions, every hair remained
the same shade as when the change was
first noticed, and SO with the scalp Of the
head
The physician said that the remarkable
change might have been the result OF elrc-
tricity, but beyond this he did not venture
an explanation. He had heard of one or
two Instances like it. The vitality of the
hair did not seem to be destroyed, for it
Was still as soft as Silkel skeinS. The
child seemed as lively as y cricket, and

sudden transformation from Il blonde to a
brunette without c. st,-Chicogo Tribune.
