Whiskey Barrels Full of Snakes.

Jonathan Rockwell, eng1neer at the e-brick works at Sciotoville, Ohio, re- gently purchased five empty whisky barrels and stored them in an outbuild
 ing to be used for cider barrels when his apples should berIpe enough to be made into that temperance beverage. Near the outbuilding is ledge of rocks contain ing many Assures and openings, which has always been a bad place for snakes" E-
 MT. Rockwell visited the outbuilding, and on opening the door he noticed q number of snakes crawling into the bungholes of the whisky barrels. Quick as thought he got the bungs and drove them into the barrels and secured the snakes. He then attempted to roll the barrels out of the building, but found them too heavy to handle without as sistance. He then called in J. D. Math- ! tot, Dustin Jones, George Sturdy, Hugh Smith and Thomas Powell, who armed themselves with hickory clubs. The bung was taken out of one barrel and some hot water was poured in, and the snakes began to come out so rapidly that all of the men were kept busy with their clubs killing them. .mS s rtE-
 The next barrel was treated in the same manner until all the five barrels were emptied. The total number of snakes killed was 2,153. No one pre- tends to account for the snakes getting into the barrels. The affidavits of our best and most reliable citizens will sub- stantiate this story beyond any doubt. The snakes were not all large ones, but there were none less than a foot in length, while many were six or seven feet Cincinnati Commercial.

An American Girls FearIessness.

The COrn5SlnlGra gives the following account of the descent to the lowest depths of Dolsoath of Miss Leila A. No ble, a young lady of nineteen, of Rome, Ga. Accompanied by friend and skilled miner, the plucky explorer passed first to depth of 1,560 feet by the man engine stepping from the small platforms oD the huge moving rod to the fixed stages at the sides of the shaft with the cool and ready step which takes away all danger from the use of this friend to the underground toiler. But this labor was little compared with that which suc- ceeded. One hundred and thirty fathoms of further depth had to be reached by the descent of perpendicular ladder This safely done, the lowest and richest parts of the mine were explored. The miners ofthem said, I'd rather take the trouble to put her to the bottom of Dolcoatl than wed a strange miner from another bal ;~wusn't thee, you?" The trying as. cent had now to be made. Hant-over- hand upright ladders, which would reach to nearly twice the height of St. Paul's
 had to be climbed, 1,29O slaves to be used. The firm and skillful way 1T which she took hold of the ladder: caused a miner to ejaculate, "I lnevel seen a young laady klem with moor powder and shoorer step in my. life. Turning to his comrade, he continued
 ''She can klem, you, better'n scores o
 men I've seed down heer." This 7s( feet accomplished, 1850 had to be done by the man engine. About seven o'clock P. N. the bold mineress from the fal west reached the surface, after being un derground for four hours and a half without signs of great fatigue.

Forms of Lightning.

A flash of lightning is 8 very large spark of electricity, just the same thing that one sees given by an electrical ma chine in a lecture on natural philosophy, the only difference being that the best machines will not give a spark more than yard long, while some flashes of light ming have been estimated to be several miles in length. According to their ap- pearance, various names have been given to these sparks in the sky, though in reality all the several kinds are one and the same thing. On @ warm summer evening one often sees the clouds on the horizon lit up with brilliant glows of lightning, unaccompanied by any sound of thunder. ....... ..
 To this appearance the name of heat lightning" has been given, and the warm weather is often assigned as its cause. In point of fact, the heat lightning is only that of thunder shower so far off that while the observer can see the flash nc sound of thunder reaches him, and the intervening clouds veil and reflect the flash till it becomes glow instead of the sharp streak usually seen. Where the flash, starting from one point, branches and divides into several parts, 1t has re- ceived the name of [" forked lightning. This is usually seen when the discharge is near the observer. Single flashes bearing zigzag or crinkled aspect are denominated "chain, or zigzag light ning,'' probably from their resemblance to chain thrown loosely on the ground
 Again, when several discharges occul from about the same place at the same time, and are screened by rain or cloud; so as to light up the heavens with 2 broad, bright glow, the title of ''sheet lightning is applied. These four com
 prise all the common forms. There is
 however, one rare manifestation, called 'ball lightning" In this phenomenQ2 a small globe or ball of apparent fire very slowly rolls along the ground, and, aftel a time, suddenly explodes, carrying de
 struction around. There are but few in
 stances of this on record, and no yer. satisfactory explanation has ever ac counted for this curious appearance.

Wonders of the Idaho Lake.

Willard Crawford, District Attorney for the Southern District of Idaho. -re-s. turned from a professional and pleasure trip to Soda Springs and Bear Lake in the latter part of last week, and the En- terprtse paid its respects to Mrs. Craw- ford and the judge, and while chit-chat- ting with them gathered up the frag- ments of several items of interest to our readers. &*l "But,n said the judge, producing some specimens of nat ural incrustations, "when you go to Bear Lake you want to visit Swan Lake, which is about ten miles south of Soda Springs, on the Paris road You can see sights there more wonderful than at any other place on earth. Yosemite is nowhere in comparison. There is a lake Cn the top of a mountain covering about one acre of ground, with q rim around it like china washbasin, which slopes off toward the center inside. Bend over the rim of this lake and look down into its clear cavernous depths, and you will notice full-grown trees-body, branches and all-in perfect symmetry, and entirely petrified or encrusted with substance which without a closer an- alysis we should pronounce carbonate of sodium and lime, judging from the speci- men shown by the judge. ...
 "These trees" continued he, " seem to have grown to their ipresent stature before the water found its way into the top of this mountain, and after being covered with water became incrusted as we find them. 1 reached down and broke off a piece of one limb, which you see is thickly coated" -...aa7. .g
 The inquisitive Enterprise representa- tive queried the judge as to his opinion Of how this lake came to be formed thus on the top of high mountain, where the rainfall is insufficient to supply one- tenth enough water to provide for the evaporation natural to such body of water, and he gaveit as his opinion that the mountain was formerly volcano, that after the blowing out of the crater a fountain or spring had gushed out into the base of the mountain and in course of years had filled it to the top, as we now find it. Around the outside of the
 lake there is a grassy meadow several acres in extent, covered at this season of the year with luxuriant growth of grass.-Orford (Idaho) Enterprise. -.

Beer Drank in New York.

The whole number of barrels of lager beer made and sold in the city of New York from May 1, 1878, to May l, 1879, was 1,342, l80 In each barrel there are four kegs, making the total number of kegs 5,368, 72O. Each keg contains about 1l5 glasses, making the total number of glasses 616, 402, 800. At five cents glass, then, we have the interesting sum of $50, ,87O, 40 as the amount expended for beer in the city for that year. This is nearly three per cent. of the total assessed valuation of the city. This is, however, only a part of the story, for, besides 617,- 402, 800 glasses of homemade lager beer, there are countless bottles of high-priced beers imported from Germany. and a very large number of barrels of lager are received from the breweries of Mill waukee, Cincinnati, Toledo and Roches- ter.

Girl Freed by a Bear.

Lucy Kirkham, aged eleven years, of Brooklyn, N. Y., but spending the sum- mer with her uncle, two miles northwest of Porter's Lake, Pa., had a very narrow escape from being killed by bear on a recent Sunday. Miss Kirkham was driving her uncle's cows out into the woods to pasture, and as she was about to return sle heard a noisei in the thicket She stopped. and, looking in the direction of the noise, her eyes beheld a large black bear coming toward her. She uttered a scream and started to run. Bruin gained on her, and, seeing no chance for escape, the terrified girl climbed a small sapling which, owing to it's small circumference, the bear was unable to ascend. The girl screamed at the top of her voice, waile the animal remained at the foot of the tree growing and clawing. The cries of the girl were heard by two hunt CTS, passing near by, who came to her rescue. When within shooting distance both loaded their guns and at given word fired. The bear fell dead. The hunters then bade the frightened little girl come down from the tree and they accompanied her home. The bear weighed 210 pounds.

He Fell.

Hugh Fell lives up town. A funny man stopped at his house, one day, and asked for him. MT. Fell appeared and made himself known.
 ''You fellp" said the funny man.
 q Yes, sir," was the reply.
 Did you hurt yourself P'' #
 "Sirp"
 You say you fell?"
 "Yes."
 Well, you fell, did you Eurt your self p asked the joker, with serious phiz.
 The man saw his drift now, and fell into passion, and struck straight from the shoulder, and the joking fellow fell into the gutter, while the feller, Eel, cried:
 Now you fell into the hands of Hugh Fell, so let me ask you were you much hurt when you fellpn
 The bona fide Hugh Fell walked into the house, while the fellow he fell picked himself up, felt both sore and sheepish, and no longer felt any desire to learn whether Hugh Fell or any other feller hurt himself when lie fell -- Philadelphia Sunday Transcript
