Too Many for the Serpent.


A strange encounter took place yester-
day in Forest park between a gigantic
hawk and large blacksnake, five feet in
length.
The keeper of the park was attracted
to the spot by the erratic motions of the
hawk, which was endeavoring either by
agility or strategy to get hold of the
snakes neck.
The reptile, with all the subtlety of its
kind, tumbled to the racket, and in order
to Illustrate the insidious designs of his
adversary stood upright on the end of
his tail, and performed some marvellous
feats of balancing on his caudle extrem-
ity. All the while the hawk was describ-
ing circles around the snakes head, and
the snake, in order to avoid the deadly
blow, was waltzing round with terpsi-
chorean grace and keeping his weather
eye on the bird that thirsted for his
gore.
The keeper watched the struggle for
some time in silence and at last decided
to approach the excited pair The hawk
few away as he neared the scene and the
keeper killed the snake.

sixty Million Years Hence.
New York Tribune.l

Prof Richard A. Proctor says the
moon is the most interesting of all the
heavenly bodies. 1t has been particularly
serviceable in the proof it affords of the
law of gravitstion.
1t proves, too, what the world has been
in remote ages of the past and what it
will be in remote ages to come. Its most
significant service to man has been as a
measurement of time.
The only perceptible effect which the
earth has upon the moons course is that
of attraction, by which its route in space
is silently deviated. From the moons
present condition we may inform
ourselves of the course of all planetary
life.
There is every reason TO suppose that
our present condition was at one time
hers; that she possessed an atmosphere,
water, animal and vegetable life. That
has now passed away. Her surface is a
sterile, rocky mass. The atmosphere has
gone or nearly so, and the seas are dried
up.
This same process is going ON with our
earth, and similar result will eventual
ly ensue, but by reason of the greater
bulk of our planet, effects produced in
ten millions of years in the moon will
require sixty mil lions with us.

Lewis, in Detroit Free Press
The experiment of sending a bad boy
to the country to cure him of his vicious
habits used to be very popular, but if
you will find one single case where a
real knavish lad was ever transformed
into good boy by this change of habi.
tation I'll find you hundred cases where
they were made worse than before. When
boy becomes rascal it takes something
more than change of scenery to effect
cure.
1t does not follow that because boy
lives in village where there are a dozen
saloons, he must ever enter even one of
them. There may be bad boys there,
but be is not forced into their company.
He has better chances to secure an edu-
cation, better opportunities for self-cul-
ture and his parents really have more
control over him.
There are bad boys in the large cities,
but they are soon singled out by the law.
A wild lad is quite as much under the
control of his parents in a city like
Detroit as he would be on farm. Hun
dreds of country boys cume here to the
colleges, and instead of being ruined by
the temptations of city life they return
home wonderfully improved in mind and
manners.
A man who signs himself "A Massa-
chusetts father" writes thusly:
"If you have studied the boy question
perhaps you can help me. have son
eighteen years of age who might be of
the greatest assistance to me in the shop,
but who is worse than useless. Outside
of his lazy habits, he is inclined to drink
and consort with rough characters. Talk

prepared any dav to hear of his arrest for
a State Prison offense. Come, now, tell
me what you would do with such boyw

Show the Children Respect.

1t will surprise many parents to have
it suggested that they should treat their
children courteously and respectfully.
Yet it is the best education that can be
impaired to them.
Parents are apt to think that children
should be subject to authority and are
not TO be consulted. But why not? 1t
teaches them to exercise judgment and
imparts self-respect. The initiative
quality in children leads them to repro
duce what is most striking in their par
ents, unless they have sufficiently posi-
tive individuality to map out characters
for themselves
Thus, many children reproduce the
leading characteristics Of the parent who
commands most their regard. So, to
treat them harshly, or even imperative
ly, is TO create an autocratic disposition
in them. 1t is not lovely trait. Self
respect and equipoise of character are
very different from a domineeriDg pro-
pensity, which arrogates authority every
where.

TRIAL BY JURY.
Ii Was the First Step Toward Repre-
sentative Government

Judge David Davis, In paper read
before the Illinois Bar, said on the SUBJ
ject of trial by jury:
"The antiquity of the institution of
the jury does not in itself prove that it
should be retained But it is q strong
argument in favor of its retention, and
throws the burden of proof upon those
who assert the contrary.
A system by which the concurrence of
the people in the administration of the
law is required of necessity influences
beneficially the national character. This
is evident to every intelligent men who
compares the nations who possess it with
those who are without it. 1t is con-
ducive of self-government, which is the
basis of our civilization.
The sense of responsibility of the COM
munity is increased when each individ-
ual in it is informed that if qualified he
may be called upon at any time to dis
charge the important functions that de-
volve upon Juries. This requirement of
qualification teaches him that in order
to fulfill the duties he owes to society he
must fit himself to perform the trust in
diligently. The jury trial also incul-
Gates fair dealing. The juryman of to-
day may have lawsuit to be tried to-
morrow, and he learns to Judge men on
the same plan that ne expects to be
Judged by them.
The average citizen associates his ideas
of justice with the trial by jury. By
means of it he becomes accustomed to
judicial proceedings and gets his knowl-
edge of the laws, and is taught by it to
respect them and the decisions of courts,
and to submit to authority. We con-
slider the freedom of the press as among
the highest of social blessings. There
would be no occasion for exultation on
this subject if there had been no trial by
jury.
As an educator of the people lies ats
greatest advantage" according to NJ. de
Tocqueville. He calls it a school into
which admission is free and open, which
each juror enters to be instructed in his
legal rights, and he says: Il regard it
as one of the most efficacious means that
society can employ for the education of
the masses" And Lord John Russell,
in commenting on the English Govern
ment, says:
at is to trial by jury more than even
by representation Gas it at present exists)
that the people owe the share they have
in the government of the country; and it
is TO trial by jury also that the govern
ment mainly owes the attachment of the
people to the laws-a consideration
which ought to make our legislators very
cautious how they take away this mode
of trial by new, trifiing and vexatious
enactmeuts."
Without pursuing the subject further,
| trust | may be pardoned for saying
that am reluctant to lay hands on an
established institution which has stood
the test of centuries and which the first
nations of the earth regard as their most
precious Jewel

A Pleasant On Home.

"An interior" as the painters call it
was on exhibition at New York Police
court the other dsy-a very graphic and
very faithful picture OF what can be seen
in more than one household. "She
makes me get mp and light the fire, cook
her breakfast, fetch toast aud tea to her
bedside, and then go out and do my
days work" That was his side of it.
"That's all very true" was her side of
it, "and you'd think did nothing but
loaf all day. Look at my hands, Judge!
Do they appear white and soft? They
are rough, and red, brought about by

ones, the oldest but IL, and the young

The FRIEND of the Paper
Texas siftings.l


The alleged friends of newspaper
have some very peculiar ideas as to what
kind of items newspaper really needs.
Not long since gentleman named
Smith came into Texas Siftings sanctum
in patronizing sort OF way.
Don't you know that you are missing
dead coolies of live items by not mixing
more with the people? Now, l am on
the streets all day long, and come across
plenty of items, and, if you say so, I'll
come up here every once in while, and
post you about what is going on"
Gall right"
"Pve got an item for you right now
that will increase the circulation of
your paper like the very mischief. You
know Major Sniverly, who ran against
me for alderman in my ward, and who
beat me by the vilest bribery and cor
ruption?"
"Well, what about himT'
"He has been picked up at last. One
of his uncles in Missouri has eloped with
a widow and left his own family desti-
tute Go for Sniverly. Don't spare him.
j lust lift him out of his boots I'd have
beat him for alderman by more than
hundred votes if he had not resorted to
bribery and corruption"
"Have you any more valuable items
for the paper, Mr.. Smith,
eyes, a most remarkable occurrence,
and yours is the only paper I've given it
to. To save you trouble have written
it out. Here it is; I'll read it to you,"
and taking some manuscript from his
pocket, he read: "a Curious Freak of
Nature-The family cat of our worthy
and distinguished fellow citizen, Peter
Smith, better man than whom God
never let live, and who keeps the boss
grocery store of Austin, beer always on
tap, yesterday became the mother of six
beautifully marked kittens. We under
stand that the taxpayers of his ward are
endeavOring to induce Mr.. Smith to
once more become candidate for alder
man in that ward, in which case we pre-
dict he will carry everything before him.
How is that for live item?"
1--WE charge ten dollars for announc-
ing candidates for Office" remarked the
editor.
Mr.Smith arose, placed his manu-
script under his arm, and strobe away.
He goes around now telling everybody
that really independent paper should
be started in Austin, paper that is not
controlled by any ring or clique, but
is devoted to the interests of the whole
people.
Many readers may think this pic
ture is overdrawn, but suffering edi-
tors all over the Udited States will lift
up their hands and testify that thew are
personally acquainted with Smith.

Of his cotton crop in addition. He re-
turned from Washington at the close of
his second term with just $50 in his
pocket, to find his farm going to ruin,
and himself so deeply in debt that
he had to sell part of his land to get
out.
Van Buren, was a close, cautious, mon
ey.msking fellow. He got good law fees
and began 10 learn economy while saw
ing enough as a young man to get mar
ried. At his estate at Lindenwald,
where he lived during his last years he
was surrounded with comforts.
President Harrison owned farm in
Ohio when he was insugurated President
1t is safe to say he was poor, for he had
been lately doing the drudgery of clerk
of the courts at Cincinnati.
President Tyler supplied much of the
money which ran the White House out
of his own pocket, and Congress would
tary. Moderately wealthy while here at
Washington, he left little to his chill
dren, and one of his sons is now clerk
in the Treasury Department in Washing
ton.
Zach. Taylor was by no means
wealthy when he died in the White
House.
James K. Polk left big house and
enough to keep his widow, and Willard
Fillmore, who started life as a wool
carder, died ten years ago with enough
of an estate to create lawsuit over the
sanity of his second wife.
James Buchanan did not leave such an
estate as to enable Harriet Lane to keep
Wheatlands, and within the past year it
has been advertised for sale. Buchanan
spent all his salary as President at
Washington, and what he had left after
paying White House expenses he gave
In charity.
Abraham Lincoln died poor, and it
was due to Congress that his family was
provided for.
Andrew johnson went back TO his
house at Green vile, Tenn, where he
had started life as tailor. He died by
stroke of paralysis, and left no fortune
behind.
OF the other presidents Grants neces-
sites are agitating the country, and
Garfeld's family is wealthy only through
the voluntary subscriptions of the
people. Truly, a. Sidney Smith used to
say, "There is nothing so expensive as
glory"
