A Battle Of Snakes.

On bare spot of this western wide
ness, says the Seymour CrcSSet, of Bay
lor County, Texas, lay coilsd great
rattlesnake warming. Little dreamed
he that mortal enemy was on his trail.
But the eyewitness we quote saw the
king of golfers and of shadows, in his
bright black garb, slowly approach
The assailant was small, not thicker
than thumb nor longer than short
yard-stick. He glided along, now rails
ing his glittering head and dartlng fire
from his eyes. Stealthily he moved on
the trail toward the great rattlesnake.
Between them was small log, an old
fallen tree; just beyond it lay the RATHER
When the little warrior came to this log
he raised nearly half his body from the
ground, standing ON his tail, as fiery
stallion rears before he strikes power
full blow with his forehoofs. When it
beheld the spotted enemy it emitted a
terrific hiss, and as flash of lightning
it sped to the side of the rattlesnake.
Now came contest between science
and skill on one side and strength and
deadly venom on the other. The little
snake, with skill and knowledge Of
its foe, did not strike home at the first
bound The startled RATHER coiled and
sounded the alarm. The assailant spun
round and round, with his fatal little
eyes darting baleful fire into the eyes
of its opponent, and as it completed
each circle sought chance for sure
and deadly blow. But the other made
the inner and shorter whirl with its head
and neck to evade the same, and to
strike crushing blow itself, with its
great fangs glittering, and all the while
the terrific rattles played deadly music.
Finally the RATHER raised and struck,
but its fangs were lodged by the expert
assailant, and they bit the earth, while
the scienced little reptile as quickly
closed and struck its teeth into the bach
of the rattler's neck. And now the
scene became terrific beyond descrip'
ton. The great snake turned ant
twisted with widely-distended mouth
emitting a horrid noise as the tumult o.
the rafting and the death struggle in
creased. For a time the RATHER KEEP
his coils as closely together rs possible
to prevent the next crushing move o
its antagonist, and in a vain effort t.
twist and shake off the little black enc
my, amid short blows. But with skill
that surpasses human comprehension
the assailant kept its little body clear 0
its poisonous fangs and kept its hol'
firmly. In despair the RATHER raised hi
head as if summoning all his energie
for final effort, and in the twinklin;
of an eye, as Il whip-lash twines aroun'
trace, the king of snakes had cole,
himself around the RATHER and, tighten
ing the grasp with. a startling power
crushed The monster in a second. Whel
the breathless head of the RATHER hat
fallen to the earth the little victor slow
ly uncoiled himself, and, making sur
that the victim was dead, loosened it
hold, and, having snutfed the air of vic
tory, darted of to other fields of con
quest.

The Prepared Card.

Joe Howard, the journalist, was COM
ing home from Boston on one of the big
Sound steamers, the other night, when
he was surprised to be taken in hand by
a three-card monte man. He carefully
concealed his knowledge of such wick
edness, and listened calmly to the gam
bier, who put it in tn S way: "Now,
sir, this is swindle, and | frankly tell
you so. Here are three cards. One is
a jack, and the rest are spotted. lay
them face downward, thus; aud what l
offer to bet is that you can't pick out
the jack. :"
'But the odds would be against me-"
said Howard.
.'Then I'll bet you fifty dollars to
twenty-five dollars said the gambler.
All this time he was laying and re-
LAYING the three cards in row, taking
care to bend the corner of the jack in
the usual manner, as though by acct
dent, so as to make Howard believe
that the right card could be identified.
Well, having placed them finally, with
the bent card seemingly the jack, while
of course it wasn't, he said: "There
they are will not touch them again.
You think you know which is the jack,
but I'll bet you two to one you don't
Here's my twenty-five dollars.
"Too small an operation, said How
ard, lazily.
make it any sum you please. Say
$500 to $3.50"
By this time a group of interested
passengers had gathered round the two
men.
"All right" said Howard, as he
counted out $3.50 from his wallet and
laid the money down.
And there's my $780," said the
gambler, putting ten $50 bills or
the pile; understand, sir, that if you
pick out the jack, at once trying, the
money is yours, and if you fail, the
money is mine"
Exactly SO, was the response.
The spectators thought, What /
fool, and expected to see Howard picl
up the bent card. So did the gambler
But he didn't. He was perfectly famil
lar with the trick, and therefore wa
aware that, by avoiding the bent card
the chances were even that he woul'
hit the jack. His luck proved good
He turned over the jack.

CRYING FOR THE NOON.

In the balmy month of June,
Lay baby, spent and tired
With crying for the moon.
And SO loftily we smiled,
Said; poor, silly little childi
He'll know better SOON"
Vainly had he tried to leap
Up towardthe glowing sky,
And because kind Love restrained
He could only fret and cry;
And we said, and proudly smiled:
Hell know better, silly child!
Better, by-and-by."
win he? Please to tell me when;
l don't think it will be soon.
If he's like most other men
He will always want the moon.
AS boy, he'll want the toys
And ponies of far richer boys;
These will be his moon.
As youth be in distress
For some beauty rich and fair,
For some furniture or dress,
For some toy he counteth rare.
And far older men will say:
Hell grow wiser every day;
Wiser, unaware"
AS man he'll sigh for wealth,
Long for power, and hope for fame;
And because he gets them not
Idly murmur, wrongly blame.
Crying still for some great boon
Far above him as the moon;
Babe and man the same.
Oh, tits well some mighty arm
Is around us everywhere.
Many fall we all should have
But for that strong, loving care;
For life has no greater boon
Than the love that whispers "No,"
And that will not LET us go
When crying for the moon.
