A Snake Cllarmer's Narrow Es-
cape From a Python.

A thrilling incident happened in Fore
paugh's circus yesterday afternoon,
while Nala Damajante, the Hindoo
snake charmer, was gong through her
performance of handling half-a-dozen
squirming pythons. 1t was all in the
twinkllng of an eye, and scarcely doz-
en- persons in the great audience were
aware that Damajante had for moment
been in deadly peril. She had finished
the wonderful act of walking about the
raised platform with six snakes coiied
like living herd-dress over her fore
head, and had taken the huge python,
whose weight is ninety pounds and
length twelve feet, from its box, and
threw it across her shoulder. AS she
bad done with the other snakes, Dama-
JAMIE grasped the powerful creature q
few inches back of the head, Although
the air, was damp and chilly, the python
appeared possessed of more than usual
activity. It unwound its sinuous length
from Damajante's body and quickly coil
ed about the upper part other chest aid
throat. To those nearest the performer,
the muscles ofthe snake could be distinct
" seen working beneath the spotted skin.
Suddenly the reptile gave an angry hiss
oAN uoS lCO AOtIA AGS 4ulVcTluS tongue,
and almost at the same moment the
coil about the woman's throat was tight
ened. Damajante's agent, who was
standing near the entrance to the ele-
plant house, appeared to know that
there was possibility of something of
the kind taking place, and was keeping
a keen eye on the performance. He
started forward quickly but quietly, so
as not to alarm the audience, and had
got half way down the race track, when
Damajante, who had already realized
her great danger, succeeded in untwist-
ing the tale end of the snake from her
body. The middle and most powerful
part of the python was still about her
throat, and the pressure was increasing.
She Was very pale but thoroughly calm.
The head Of the python, kissing llorri-
bly,, was still grasped in her right hand.
Damajante, with remarkable nerve,
managed to free her left arm, and in
another instant had, with all the strength
she possessed in both hands, unwrapped
the writing necklace from her throat.
She placed her dangerous pet back in its
box, bowed, and retired.-Philadelph
