The necessary expenses of a man
at Yale differ widely frem his ac-
tual expenditure. Some recent sta
tistics show the necessary expenses
do not exceed $500 yearly, whereas
the majority Of the students use
double that amount. The tuition
for one year is $40. Table board
varies from So so to S11 per week.
The average is S6 so Hence
for q year Of forty weeks board
would cost 5000. Room rent in
the college building is included in
the tuition; outside the college it va
ries from $50 to $50 per year.
Clothes are an important item. The
| finest goo1s are worn. The veal.

Mr.. Rheem, who has charge Of
the reptile specimens il the Smith
senian Institute, centradicts much
of the popular belief as to snakes.
Some of the most dreaded have no
existence. The hoop snake, which
takes the end of its tail in it's mouth
and rolls over and over like a hoop,
killing with its venom everything
it touches, and the blow snake, the
breath Of which is deadly, are fc-
tions. AS serpeats move about,
they are constantly feeling ahead
with the tongue; and the forward
thrsst and peculiar forked appear
ance of the organ has given rise to
the false idea that with it the sting
ing is done. 1t is generally thought
that there are great number OF
these poisonous snaks. In North
America there are only three spe
eies-the rattlesnake, the copper
head, or moccasin, and the coral.
There are about thirty varieties of
these species altogether. The cop
perhead is probably the most dan
gerous, as it is vicious and never
gives warning of any kind before
striking. The rattlesnake, though
more poisonous than either Of the
others, will rattle at the approach
of anything, and try to get away
unless brought to bay. The coral
IS much smaller, and a native of the
Southern States. The bite is not
necessarily fatal if the proper RENE
dies are used in time; as, on account
of its size, the quantity of poison is
small. When a reptile strikes he
throws his whole body forward, and
the fangs penetrate the object
against which they come. He does
not jump; the hinder part of the
body remains in position. None Of
our snakes are in the habit Of reach
ing more than half their length,

The San Francisco Bridge Gem

The San Francisco Bridge Gem
pany recently made a large blast
with view of obtaining $4,000
tons Of rocks for constructing sea
wall at San Francisco The quarry
is bluff, sc feet high, at the wa
ter's edge at the mouth Of Vista
ton Valley. Eleven tunnels in all
have been run and four have been
exploded, 1000 pounds of judi
sou powder being used. Each tun.
mel was 80 feet long, and extended
to an L. in which was the powder.
From the L to the mouth Of each
tunnel reck and dirt had been
"tamped" in as hard as possible.
The four explosions were to occur
successively, the first to loosen the
cliff and make it easier for the
second to become effective, and SO
Oh. The first explosion was await
ed with some little apprehension
by the harbor commissioners and
other occupants of the towbeat.
But when it occurred, with a dull,
heavy sound, and it become appar.
ent that fragments of stone were
not to fly through the air, there
was a unanimous desire that the
boat should move nearer the shore
The other explosions occurred soor
after. No. 3 was a grand affair
A great section Of the cliff was top
pied over, and huge powders ane
tons Of dirt rushed down to the wa.
ter's edge. The blasts were pro
nounced successful, and the quality
of stone, on subsequent inspection
seemed satisfactory to the harbo
commissioners. It was estimate,
by the engineers that the l ,00t
pounds of explosives had displace,
in about 10 minutes $4,000 tons o
rock and earth.

There is hardly any enc who has
not had experiences similar te these

they are as well worthy of investi

all the numerous occurrences, small

 Major John A. Tibbits, of New London, has been mentioned prominently as a candi- date for speaker of the House at the coming session and he would make an excellent pre- siding officer. A personal acquaintance with him, dating back to his boyhood in New Len- don when with Gov. Waller he attended the Bartlett High school, enables the writer to speak understandingly of his character and qualifications. He entered Williams col lege, but left at the close of his freshman year to go into the army and gave his ser vices to the Union cause. He enlisted in the Fourteenth Connecticut Volunteers and his army record was both honorable and bril- liant He carries the scars of wounds re- ceived at Antietam, Charlottesville and Gettysburg where he won distinction and promotion by his bravery. After the war he studied law in New London, was admitted to the bar and immediately entered upon pub lie life. He was assistant clerk of the House in 1868, clerk in 1869, and clerk of the Sen ate in 1870. In 1872 he represented New London in the legislature and was chairman of the Committee on Military Affairs. He was for four years government director on the Union Pacific railroad and was appointed collector of the district of New London by President Hayes in 1877 and reappointed by Arthur in 1881. As lawyer he has had large experience and has served as city attorney and judge of the City court of New London. He was delegate to the national Republican convention in 1876 and alternate for the Hon. Augustus Brandagee as delegate at large for Connecticut in the convention of 1884. He is a fluent, pleasing speaker, a prompt and ready debater, familiar with par liamentary rules and practices and gentle man of courteous bearing and very extensive acquaintance, and it will thus be seen that his exceptional career and attachments quail fly him for the position in an eminent de-
