They are telling rather good story on
Officer Marshal! at police headquarters to
day. He WAS walking along West Main
street, near Center, about nine o'clock last
night. when he was accoSted by lady who
told him that she had been insulted by q
couple of men standing in a doorway, point
ng 10 the museum of anatomy where stood
the wax images of Burke and O'R0urke
the notorious body snatcherS.
The officer Immediately stepped up
to one of the images and
collared him with no gentle hand. asking
him what he meant by insulting an npro-
tected female. The image failed to give
any explanation, and the officer remarked
that few hours behind the bars would
loosen his tongue. Fortunately the mis-
take was discovered in time to prevent the
incarceration of the impolite figure.

A Remarkable Cure.

4 remarkable case of cure from the
bite of a cobra in full poison comes
from Pachmarhi military hill station
in the central provinces of India. The
effective bite of cobra is usually re-
garded as certain death, and the sue
cessful treatment of the case in ques-
ton will suggest to medical men the
value of hypodermic treatment in such
cases. According to the Allahabad
faomeer, post-office barbara (messen-
ger) was bitten by cobra. VIII ch was
afterward killed. The man was at
once tax N to the military hospital. but
ten or fifteen minutes must have elapsed
before medi al assistance was avail
able. When the patient was taken in
hand he was in state OF collapse. The
lower half of his body became gradu-
ally paralyzed, and by degrees he lost
both speech and sight. The doctor at
this stage thought that nothing could
save the man. especially as the dead
snake had been examined and found to
be cobra in full poison. Hypodermie
injections and other obvious treatment,
however, were continued, and in about
ten hours some little Improvement in
the patient was observed. Subse-
quently, the man quite recovered.
There appears not the slightest doubt
about his having been fairly bitten. for
irrespective of the symptoms, his little
finger had been torn open in shaking
the snake off. The cobra was four and
a half feet long.-N. Y. Post.

The Wild Horses of the West.

The wild horses of Wyoming and
Western Nebraska are compact little
animals. weighing 800 to 100 pounds.
The majority of them stand fourteen
hands high. In color they are usually
brown, sorrel or bay. A gray is seldom
seen. unless it is a horse that has
straved away from civilization. Their
tails grow long, frequently dragging
on the ground, but their names are
Ike those of other horses and not
flowing to the knees, as represented in
some books. The eye, probably from
beng constantly on the watch. is
larger than the eyes of the domestic
horse. and even when tanned the eye
remains a distinctive mark of the
horses origin. Wild horses, when
captured or tanned. are superior to
other horses of the same SIZE. Many of
them are used by the COWBOYS, and
others are broken to harness and driven
as carriage horses. being entirely trust
