A Snakes Revenge.

"SpeakiL' O. snakes" said the
Texas frontiersman, reminds me of
a little adventure me and chum
had with rattlesnakes that made me
respect the 1attlesnake ever since.' y
What kind of an adventure did
you have that makes you respect the
rattlesnake?" asked a st. Louis man.
"Well, one evening just before
dark out among the Rio Grande can
yons there came the all-fredest rain
you ever seed. Before We could get out
the water had risen. 50 the only way
to escape was to cross a canyon
about thirty feet wide and five hun
dred deep. ..-
"When we got to this canyon we
found about one million rattl snakos
there. They recognized me as their
friend, it seemed, as l tried to keep
my chum from shooting into the
mound of 'em, for they crawled
around me and looked into my face,
as much as to say; You can help
us over, if you will.' 1 noticed that
the snakes paid no attention to my
chum, except big rattler my chum
wounded would look at him, and
then 90 around to his followers and
seem to tell them something.
"Well, tied knot in the tail of
big rat:ler and then got another
and looped his neck into this, and so
on until I had snake rope about
sixty feet long. Then l coiled it in
nv hand as I would a lariat and
throwed it across. and the head of
the snake tied himself to tree. and
the last one on my side did the same.

and at the same time little distance
from the pupil of the eye. Eyes of
this variety of tints show intellect or
at any rate certain originality of
character. No commonplace nature
has this sort of eye. Hasty, irrita-
BILE persons have frequently eyes
of brownish tint inclined to
greenish hue. Although the pure.
ly green eye indicates deceit and
coquetry, the propensity to greenish
tints in the eyes is sign of wisdom
and courage. Very choleric persons,
if they have blue eyes, have also
tints of green in them, and when un-
der the influence of anger a sudden
red light appears in them.
There are eyes which are remarka-
BILE for being Of what might be said
to be of no color. The iris has only
some shades of blue or pale gray, so
feeble as to be almost white in some
parts, and the shades of orange which b
intervene are so small that they can
scarcely be distinguished from gray
or white, not withstanding the con-
trast of colors. The black of the
pupil is in these eyes too marked,
because the color of the iris around
it is not deep enough, so that in
looking at them we seem to see only
the pupil. These eyes are express

Episcopal tliurc', Congress.


NEW haven, October 2l.--The OIL
GERS of the Episcopal Church Congress,
which began its tenth annual session
here yesterday, pronounce the session
a great success. At the morning ses-
sion to-day the topic discussed was
Grounds of Church Unity" Bishop
Cote, of Western New York. held that
all the schemes for the unity of the
Episcopal Church with other Churches
had always been faulty, and he cited
instances supporting his assertion. lie
said {: "No ultra-Montane Rem%nist eau
be true American. lie keeps no faith
with heretics. The Episcopal Church
asks the other Churches why they for
felt their connection with the body Of
the Church. We will show trust
worthy love. but we shall uphold the
primitive example in all things or else
forfeit our right to our name. Let us
not compromise the truth or the law of
continuity. In working out this prin-
ciple of unity we must start out with
the apostolic and nicene basis Of Chris
tiabity."
Canon Farrar argued that the princi-
pal grounds for unity were: First.
The unity of heart and soul amid diver
gencies of opinion and variations Of
practice. Second. Christ's new COM
mandment-the commandment so often
repeated on the lips of Christians so
often belied in their actions" Love
one another" Third. That faith
which in its highest sense had to St.
Paul no other meaning than " Oneness
with Christ"
The last ground on which | will
touch is that it is essential to the pros
perity of the Church of Christ. While
we are disputing and wrangling, often
about uncertain, 'often about infinitely
little, the enemy is at our gates.

mel William G. Moore, President John

oya reporter of an evening paper to-
uay regarding the disclosures by
Chauncey NJ. Depew concerning the
ainner-table conversation with General
"rant. His attention was especially
called TO the statement that President

SO arranged as to permit his return

prominent part which Depew's state
ment alleges President Johnson's de-
sire to curry favor with the southern
aristocracy played in his course in deal
ing with the defeated leaders, Colonel
Moore said: There was no man in
public life who attached less im-
p0rtance to the aristocTacy, or was
in more perfect sympathy with the peo-
pie. President johnson was essentially
man Of the people, and acted with
them. lie did not curry favor with the
southern aristocracy at any time, and |
cannot remember that southern aristo-
Gratis were ever conspicuous at the
White House. ] do not think that any
Of the first families of the South asso.

his Administration who would not have
done so before. | regard nearly all
these statements as unjust to President
Johnson, and contrary to my expe-
rience and knowledge Of him."
n. W. Warden, who was an assistant
private secretary Of President Johnson,
being questioned on the same subject,
said he was inclined to think that Mr..
Depew had unintentionally given color
to statements made to him by General
Grant. There is no question that
Mr.. johnson said that treason should
be made odious, but do not believe
that he wanted to go as far as this state
ment of Mr.. Depew's would indicate
was his intention. Mr.. johnson, in his
J ounger days, was much opposed to the
arlstocracy Of the South, but think
that his maturer views changed in this
particular"
