BIC Snakes at Dinner.

The big anaconda at the museum was
regaled with a rabbit dinner. A ten
days fast prepared him for the feast
In the warm-air case were mammoth
pythons and wriggling boa constructors,
but the anaconda alone seemed to APP
preclate the delicate repast. The
introduction of half a dozen small
gray rabbits into the big snake house
attracted scarcely any attention from
the writhing reptiles, and the little
animals, equally unconscious, seam
pered from side to side without the
python lay lazily blinking his eyes.
Six months had elapsed since he had
taken his last meal. Around him
were haff dozen snakes just as lazy
and listless and sleepy
Near the side of the case, in a box
sunk several inches below the level of
the surrounding, platform, the anacon-
da lay coiled, fast asleep. The inva-
sion of his privacy by one of the rab-
bits awakened him. He caught sight
OF the little animal and his ewes glis-
tened. His fangs darted rapidly from
side to side. The glistening eye-balls
became baleful. The folds drew up
into tight coil, and the head of the
reptile oscillated to and fro. The rab-
bit, unconscious of the fate in stors for
it, sportively jumped about it, narro- :,
prison. Presently the rabbit turr "a ~
head toward the snake, whe-, orioI- .,s os
a flash, the reptile drove i farIS ~ tho
netoL;n netlI =, 'no .-tlhinu'.ve animal, firmly

coi4ln around the rabbit, the
snake lorced the life from the little
DO y, crushing the bones and pulling
it out into a long, shapeless mass. In
a few minutes, as though satisfied
that life was extinct, the great reptile
began TO draw the rabbit into his NAV.
The lower jaw fell, enlarging the
mouth to wonderful extent, and dis
closing small, sharp teeth, similar to
| those of fish.

tige of the rabbit had disappeared, the

the compressive muscles of the ana
conda still forced it downward. A rest

swallowing it quietly and with greater
leisure. The other snakes apparently
took no interest in the gormandizing
of their big brother in the pit, cut
dozen sleek-looking rabbits were put in
the case to tempt their appetites during
the night.
In another box mammoth boa con-
strictor was discovered, writhing as if
in extreme discomfort. From his
mouth protruded something that re-
sembIed heavy piece of cloth.
When the snake-keeper drew near the
case he stopped in astonishmeut.
''Heavens!n he calculated; ''that
snakes swallowed its blanket"
That's nothing" responded Mr..
Hagar, of the management, demurely.
They often do that in winter"
But the bianket-devouring snake will
be watched with great interest, and
whether it will be able to exist sever
al months on the nutriment from the
bed blanket or whether its effort to
keep warm inside will result in a fatal
indigestion, time alone will determine.

Why He Stopped the Express Train,

The Air Line passenger train was
rapidly speeding over the rails between
Atlanta and Gainesville when a man
came rushing from q field and down
towards it, frantically waving an old
red shirt. Instantly the engineer ap-
piled the air brakes and came to dead
halt. "Whar' the conductorP" gasped
the signal carrier, as he eyed the smut
ty face of the fireman. Here | am,
excitedly cried the sought for officer;
whats wrong?" '1hundcrationr'
gasped the man, ever things wrong;
the old oman, Jim an the rest % my
crowd hev gone to town, an l can
git" Come on" yelled the con-
ductor; ''we'll help you get it of. y
''Gi. what off misterP" '.Ain't there
something across the track2" ''No,
Stree; and | never said thar wuz. L
only said that my folks he'd gone off
somewhar. an l can't git" .'Git
what?" shrieked the officer, as the far
mer paused. wall, if you'll let me
lone, I'll tell yc arter while" and the
man sat complacently down on a
stump. The train had been stopped
now for fifteen minutes, and the con-
ductor was boiling hot. Presently the
stranger arose and said: Now, if you'll
keep yer tater trap shet fur sec
ond, II tell ye what's the trouble" :"
"Well, proceed. and hurry" After
taking big chew of tobacco, the far
mer continued: LAS | said afore, my
gang all trotted off to-day, an l
couldn't git no grub, 'kase hedn't
nuthin' to start fire with. VIII one
o ye gentleman give the old man q

the conductor was outdonc, and after
assisting the farmer over a fence or
two, the train moved on.-4tantG Con-
