POETS CORNER.

Last night toss sd and turned in bed,
But could not sleep, AT length | said
I'll get my paper, pen and ink,
Put on my cap and try to think
What to write for the "Poet S Corner
So at it with might and main,
Until fear ! am half insane,
For not one rhyme would come to me,

SNAKES.

AS many as 10000 deaths occur
annually in India from snake bites.
and since 1870 from $50 900 to
100000 persons have persisted in
this way. India possesses more
deadly snakes than any other coun>
try, aod the bite of the cobra is often
fatal within half au hour. In the
year 1880 212,776 serpents of all
kinds were destroyed and rewards,
amounting 10 all to IL, 1858 rupees,
were paid to their destroyers. In
the northwest provinces and 10 Dude
body of Kanjars has been formed
for the especial purpose of killing off
the venomous reptiles of those dis
tricts. The men receive two rupees
per month, and if man is 80 fortu-
nate as to destroy more than twenty
snakes during that period, he is paid
the equivalent of about three pence
per head for all in excess of that
number. In 1881 wild beasts caused
the death of 2.757 persons, as
against $40 in 1880, and the num-
Der of animals killed by them every
wear is enormous. The leopards
are, perhaps, the farmers worst foes,
and the tigers rank next but the
wolves are but little less destructive.
In 1881 1857 tigers and 1897 Loop
ards were killed.

The Basty Marriage Denies

From tile Atlanta Constitution.
Yesterday the Constitution published an
Interesting paragraph about young lady of
Marietta, Miss Gable marrying stranger
named Wilson. The story was told Con
sttution reporter by the young lady's cousin
night before last, and was of course accepted
as true, as he was in the city, he said, in
search of the young lady who he alleged
had left home.
Yesterday however another Mr.. Gable, a
brother of the Constitution informant who
lives in the city, stated that the report was
wholly false and that the Constitutions in
formant must have been drinking. He
furnished the following card and asked that
it be published
ATLANTA, April 17.-Editors Constitu-
ton My attention has been directed to an
article in to days Constitution in which a
false statement is made, and hope you will
allow me space in your paper to correct it,
The article in question is the one in which
it is stated that a run away marriage occur
red at Marietta last Friday between Miss
Gable of that place and one Wilson, of Ac-
worth The young lady is now and has
been all the While with her parents, and
such an idea never entered her mind. as she
has never even heard of the man Wilson.
The report is absolutely without foundation
in fact and is as unjust as it is false. What
motive could have prompted such an infa-
nous asehoOd in the heart of the originator
we cannot even conjecture.
