"yiper Men and Women.o

At Guadalajara there exists an indi
 vidual having scaly skin exactly like that of viper, even to the green color; He has, beside, the viper habit of changing or shedding his skin every year. The skin comes off in a single piece, and not as might be supposed in parts. On the mans head there is not a single hair. A sister of this man, who died some time ago, manifested the same phenomenon, and toward the close of her life began slowly to gr W bind. owing to the viper's skin encroaching on the eyes to such an extent that she could only see through a narrow aperture at each eye. The same thing is now hap pening to the brother. He can scarcely see any object and the head presents the repulsive aspect of viper. In Cuautla these unhappy beings have been known as the "viper men and women;," and the phenomenon is attributed to the fact that their mother ate an excess of viper's meat to cure disease of the blood. In Cuba it is common practice for people to eat viper's flesh az a remedy for blood diseases.-Sante Fe NeaO Mexican.

Official statistics show that the Forty-ninth Congress will contain 182 Democrats, 40 Republicans, one Greenback Democrat Weaver of IowO aud one Greenback Re- publican (Brunson of Pennsyl- vania). A vacancy exists in the Nineteenth Congressional Dis trict of Pennsylvania. There were 1S7 members of the present House reelected. The Republi- Cans had a bad run of luck in nearly every State except Cali fornia where the parties were anything like equal. They lost two seats in Illinois by a mere handful of votes, and three seats in Indiana, four in Ohio, two in Michigan and one in Iowa. Fully twenty seats in all were lost by majorities comparatively small.

The Rapid Cow of Nova Scotia.

It happened on railway in Nova Scotia, which was going-well, it wasn't exactly lightning express. The en- gineer whistled "down brakes" "What is the trouble, conductor?" "Cow on the track" coolly responded the con ductor. The man was satisfied. Shortly afterward "down brakes" was whistled again. "What's the trouble now? ?" cried the same passenger. "Cow on the track, "w was the reply. "Great heavens [" said the man, "haven't we caught up with that COW yet ?"

Searcy was successful one, and
presented matter that deserves
wide dissemination among teachers,
directors and patrons. This can be
brought about by the free use of the
printing press and money. The as
ISOLATION asked each county exami.
ner to raise SIS from the teachers of
his county. Will you do it? l also
ask each teacher of Arkansas to send
to Hon. F. j. Wise, Pine Bluff, ST as
a membership fee Of the association.
This is directed to you ii you love
you. profession and are interested in
its growth. If you cannot send 81, 4
send any amount less than this and
attest your good will. Think of
what has been done during the last
year.
More than $4,000 have been in.
vested in permanent and elegant
school houses in the various towns of
the state; more than $4,000 have
been placed in apparatus and school
furniture in the same places, more
than $4,000 have been placed in
school houses in the rural districts;
more than twenty-one counties have
| raised the standard Of examinations;
more than one-sixth Of the directors
have determined to obey law ana to-.
advance school work; more teachers
are reading educational literature;
scores of books upon pedagogy have
been bought by them; more than
twenty new. county institutes have
been organized; more teachers meet
ings have been held and more pat
rons are enlisted in the work; more
taxes have been levied and these
have beef largely supplemented by
voluntary contributions. The inter.
est is alive and should be properly
directed by the best thought of the
state. The State Teachers Associa-
tio1 is the exponent of the most con
SENTATIVE thought in Arkansas, and
its work should be thrown broad
cast through the land. Forty or
fifty men may be able to generalize,
but they cannot furnish Ill the means /,
for general work. Every teacher
can do something; every trustee can
do something; every friend of edu
cation can do the same. Will you
do it? II you respond do SO at once
If it be but 25 cents. also ask the
teachers of every township in Ar
I kansas to organize themselves into
a teachers association, and to meet
every second Saturday for general
improvement. Will each paper, re-
ligious and otherwise, be kind
enough to copy this appeal?

GEN. Miles. the most noted Indian
fighter of the United States army,
strongly urges the opening of the
Indian Territory to white settlement.
He thus speaks of its present con-
dition:
lit is now block in the pathway
of civilization. 1t is preserved to
pcrpctuate q mongrel race, far re
moved from the influence of civilized
people; refuge for the outlaws aud
indolent whites, blacks and Mcxi-
cans; without courts of justice or
public institutions, it is simply a
dark blot in the centre of the United
States; costing the government hun
dscds of thousands of dollars to
maintain 10000 or 10000 Indians,
when that territory is capable of sup
porting many millions of people. |
am convinced that the time has ar
rived for. a change. w ashington
Press.
The demand for the opening OF
the Indian Territory to settlement
keeps growing. 1t will continue to
do so until the thing shall be done.
The statement Of the case by this
indian fighter is exactly true. The
folly of permitting this Chinese wall
to stand longer TO impede the devel-
opment of surrounding states should
be cut short. Give the indian what
you are going to give him, and then
let him take care of himself.
