missioucrs. The Brownsville Democrat
says Negro rule in Haywood county
is becoming intolrrnblc It, logical re-
suit will he to finally turn over all the
elective offices in the county to the ig-
n"rant and irresponsible rabblc, We
now have negro register and negro
asScmb man, and the negroes year hy
year are asserting their claims to all the
oiiic'S in their reach. The time is not
far distant, unless vigorous precauliona-
~ measures are taken, when the clerk
ship Of the courts and the legislative
factions of the county will be in the
hands of the negroes, and then the prop
crry holder will have no voice in the adj

RATTLEsNAKE ON TOAST.
A Terror OF the Plains Had An Order
Filled TO His Disgust.

Cheyehm SUM-
A typical cowboy, fresh from his herd,
went in Elitchs chophouse last night The
tables were all filled with the exception of
one, at which the terror of the plains seated
himself As he pulled OFF his hat and united
the red bandannn handkerchief from around
his throat, he looked disdainfuly around. ~
The nimble waiter brushed an imaginary
bread crumb from the cloth, whisled bill
of fare from the CASTER and placed it before
the festive and untamed youth.
"Take it away" he snarlcd. I can't eat
that want rattlesnake ON toast -
IRA ttlesnake ON toast !" yelled the waiter.
RAFT lesnake on toastW responded the
cook.
There was q slight auttcr among the guests
at this strange order, and the cowboy was
scanned by many curious eyes
He looked a little disconnected at having
his order 80 promptly taken, and Glanced fur
tiycg' coward the front oi The iiou,r. lie
saw the walters engaged in filling orders, and
looking as solemn as graveyards after mid
night.
Ho assumed II nonchalant air and picked
his teeth with his fork.
cook deftly removed the skin from a
pickerel, and, cutting strip the proper shape,
placed it in spider.
The waiter who had taken tho order came
tripping back to the bold buccaneer of the
pampas.
Twill you have your snake we'll done or
~
Rare. with oodle of milk gravy on it,"
"Gimme that snake rare-milk gravy on
the side" was hallooed to the cook.
Snake rare; milk gravy side" cook
shouted back.
"Say," said the bovine steerer, as tho
waiter passed him, "l'll take it well DONE"
make it well done"
"Make il we'll done" was answered back.
Tho lariat wrestler began to grow nervous.
The devi-may-care expression left his eyes
and soft, subdued, melancholy shade has
taken its place. He fdgeted in his chair, and
seemed to be nerving himself for an ordeal.
Here you arc, sir" said tho culinard
Ganymede, placing q dish in which way
something nicely coiled, which looked like a
fried specimen of the genus crotalus. " Have
little Worcester sauce? Gives n very fine
favor. Some folks like mushrooms with
their snakes, Others prefer Chilli colorow. A
little salad dressing don't go bad. There's
vinegar and olive oil in the caster. VIII you
have tea or coffee? Very fine snake; caught
yesterday Fat and tender"
When the waiter was delivering himself of
this eulOgy on the meal, the steer puncher
showed his chair back. His eyes bulged out,
and he became pale around the gills.
81 don't think III cat anything. ! amt
hungry" he said, as he rose to his feet and
reached for bis hat.
"Maybe you'd prefer Drilled moCcasin," in
sinuatingly suggested the waiter.
NO" he replied, as tho ashen pail or deep
cned on his face. " | ain'5 n hit hungry
lie cast another glance at the dish lie had
ordered, and made break for the door. lie
| forgot to pay at the counter.

Twenty-Five to One.

The vital statistics of the last census are
very funny. There are 4,016 people in the
United States over 100 years of age, of whom
1,409 are males and 2,607 are females; that is
to say nearly twice as many women as men,
But tho color line is the funniest. OF tho
4,Ol6 centennarians only 955 are white; 3,06l
are colored; that is to say, the colored CEN
tennnrinns are to the white ditto moro than
;Agge to one. Aud NJ the coloved race forms
only one eghth of the population, tho result
is that darkey's chances of reaching 100
years are to those of white person more
than % to /. If, therefore, life is worth living
after getting very old, who wouldn't like to
be born an African? ANTIQUARY.

Prof. Seager is in the city, and de-
scribes an interview with "Baby Doe"
wife of Senator Tabor. The professor
was in pursuit Of the opera house for
the Queen Esther" opera, which he
was getting up there. "Baby Doe"
came down to the parlor with great
stateliness aud imperious sir, but with
a rather untidy dress on. Diamonds as
large as hazel nuts dansled from her
ears, and she was other wise richly orna-
mented. When the proposition was
pot TO her concerning The opera house
she Indignantly rejected any scheme by
which the ladies of Denver might be
admitted to her opera house, for, said
she, .'they have refused to call on me,
and the house is mine, and l don't pro-
pose they shall insult me and then
make use Of my house." Such is
