President Hayes, in the honest simplicity
of his heart, at FIRST supposed that the demo.
cratic caucus mo troops bill was devoid Of
all pernicious intent, and believing thus he
was prepared to sign it. But his official
eyes were gradually opened and he began to
look upon the measure through republican
spectacles. The Inter-Ocean Washington
correspondent gives the following version Of
the process by which the presidential judg.
ment was gradually metamorphosed:
President Hayes on Tuesday said to one
OF his cabinet officers and to others that be
raw nothing Objectionable in the bill which
the democratic caucus brought forth after
long and painful labor. He told people that
It was a harmless bill, and he thought the
democrats had been very clever and ingen.
lous IN lnvenhng a method to escape from
their dilemma. He said the bill was shrewd.
" drawn 80 as to avoid every objection he
had made to the section in the army bill, the
place of which it was intended to take. On
Wednesday the president, having talked
with prominent republicans, and heard the
action of the republican caucus, said that it
was a subtle bill, and its innocent phraseol-
ogy no doubt covered a multitude of dread
full quicksands. On Thursday the president
had not made up his mind what he should
do, but SAID his action in approving or dis
approving the bill would depend upon what
was developed in the debate, and what
opinion he came to after study Of the meas
ure, which up to this time he had only
casually examined. Some gentlemen, in
whom he had confidence, and who studied
it, believed it to be a pernlcious measure.
But as to its merits he was not able to say.
On Friday it was telegrphed that the
president would probably veto the bill, and
on Saturday we received the positive an
nouncement that it would be returned " til
his objections. Democratic newspapers may
designate this as a whipping in process, but
We look upon it as the final conclusion of an
executive who is willing to receive testimo-
ny on both sides and be guided by it.

The Pun Adder.

Among the numerous pests of the South
African bush, one Of the most formidable is
the puff adder, 80 called from It's habit OF
initiating It's head and neck just before strik- I
ing its prey. Its mode OF attack is to throw
back its head and strike downward with the
two hooked teeth that project from Its up
per Jaw, inflicting q wound which Is
almost Invariably fatal. It's fondness for
,preying upon mice, which are It's chief food,
frequently leads it into the houses OF the
colonists, who find It o very troublesome
guest, inasmuch as Its body is SO tough and
elastic as to defy almost any syeapon except
a charge Of shot. On one occasion, the
wife Of a missionary living in one OF the res
moter SCI ttlene.,ts of Cape Colony noticed
on tile floor in which che was sitting the
empty skin Of d riolise, out Of which the
flesh had been sucked as clean as could have
been the inside Of an orange. Detecting at
once the we'll known trace Of the puff adder,
che cautiously searched the whole rooril,
and at length, lifting a corner Of the mat
ting upon which her baby was lying asleep,
found the snake coiled up underneath.
With great presence Of mind, she refrained
from disturbing II, and, steppipg 70 the
door, called In one Of her Dnteh servants,

a boy and girl held rope across t.arnnnn

gentleman settles his hat firmly on his head,
looked around to sec that no one was near,
measured the distance with practiced eye,
jumped the flying rope with all the ease
and accuracy of youth, and then marched
on with smile on his face. Not far be-
hind him was popular Main street grocer,
who observed the performance, and at once
canght the humor of the thing. els bulky

inquiry came, ''wont you jump, sir7" he
replied, sOf course will, " and forthwith
spread himself in the air with an abandon
that threatened to burst h.s coat, but which
cleared the rope, to the infinite delight of
the children. The next was the critical
test. She was young and shapcly, bright
of face and stylish of apparel, and she had
admired the aerial flights of her predcces-
sors. 1t was her turn, and to the honor OF

firmly grasped, the body swayed for mo-
