INDIAN JUGGLERS.
Their Tame Snakes Not Always Deprived
of Their Polson-Teeth.

Their Tame Snakes Not Always Deprived
of Their Polson-Teeth.
It Is n mistake to think that the
snakes are always harmless which are
brought round TO house doors and ho-
tells in India by the jugglers and samp-
WallahS. An almost universal opinion
exists that these men extract the poi
son-fangs from the serpents kept in
their baskets, and that anybody may
approach and play with them as freely
as their exhibitors. This is by no
means the case, and many of the rep
tiles which hiss and coil about in the
Indian verandahs are as deadly rs any
to be found in the jungle. These peo-
pie tame and familiarize their snakes,
especially the cobras, which are then
disinclined TO strike, and become quite
playful and friendly, so that, unless
suddenly frightened or irritated, they
dart at the hand of the snake-charmer
without erecting the poison-fangs or
even opening their mouths. 1t would,
however, be different and very danger
ous il stranger trilled with some Of
these basketed serpents, and the sanlp-
tDdiidhs themselves occasionally fall
victims to the recklessness or conf
dence with which they handle their
captures. The Maharajah of Benares
was kind enough to send the entire
company of his palace jugglers for
our entertainment. They performed
with much adroitness the usual series
of Hindoo tricks. They made the
mango-tree bear ripe fruit from seed,
swallowed fire and swords, disentangled
inextricable knots, and, having
mixed together in water and drunk up
three powders, red, green and yellow,
one OF them brought what seemed the
same powders forth from his mouth in
a dry state again. Then they produced
large selection of snakes, of which
three were cobras, and one of these was
made to dance to the gourd and ban
sula, striking again and again mean
while at the hand Of the performer. A
doubt being expressed by somebody as
TO the lethal power Of this creature, the
chief juggler declared IL was truly a
dant-walldh, and had his poison teeth.
"If the sdheb-log would supply a sheep
or goat, they might quickly see whether
he spoke true word" Eventually a
white chicken was produced, and seiz-
ing nis cobra by the neck, the juggler
pinched its tail, and made il bite the
poor fowl, which uttered little cry
when the sharp tooth punctured its
thigh. But, being replaced on the
ground, the chicken began to pick up
rice with unconcern, apparently unin-
jured. In about four minutes, how
ever, it ceased moving hither and
thither, and began to look sick. In
two minutes more 1t had dropped It's
beak upon the ground, and was evi-
IDENTIFY paralyzed, and unable to breathe
freely. In another minute 1t fell over
upon its side, and was dead with con-
] vulsions within ten minutes after the
bite.-London telegraph.

THAT MAN BROWN,

Junius Brutus 'Poleon Brown
The happlest man in all the town.
Ye couldn't touch him on the raw
Cntentedest man ye ever saw.
Ho had the mumps at thirty-one,
The measles next when they was done
And when the ager'd made him slim
The yeller janders tackled him.
He rassled with the hoopin' cough
At forty; but he shuck ii off,
And laft and said he didn't know
Why trlbDle.ation loved him so.
The women all said Brown was Just
The kind OF man that they could trust;
His gentle ways and smiling face
Would flood with sunshine any place.
But Pole he never married, cause
Well, none knew what the reason was,
Except that he would just aver
That he'd been left widower.
He 'druther take things as they come,
And not invite fresh troubles home;
But rs for trouble-law! wy Pole
I'd let ii tumble off his soul
Like water tumbles of duck.
Through sorrow he could run amuck
And come out smiling at the end
With disappointment as his friend.
When age reached for Neepoleon's hair.
And left him bald, he didn't care;
But smilln' still, he softly said:
" It's lest us WE'LL don't Ike red!'
And all the children of the town
Were mighty fond of 'PoleOn Browni
They loved this klndliost of men:
And Brown, he loved 'cm back again.
He made his little world serene
For All mankind, and might have seen
And talked with angels. I've whim
They'd run to meet man like him.
The very dogs wero glad to touch
The hand of him thev loved so much;
No happier man in all the Town
Than 1unius Brutus 'Poleon Brown.

called, which was made Of. peculiar
clay, and this has proved successful.
Mitscherlich Immediately erected a
sulphite fiber establishment in Ger
many and il was so successful and
there became such a demand for his
product that others were started, and
now he has sixty in operation. The
difficulty he has had to contend with
is the scarcity of timber, for which he
has to pay as high as $50 per cord.
There is no wood in either Great Brit
ain, France, Austria, Italy or Sweden
from which fiber can be produced.
Germany alone, so far as is known,
being the only country in which the
wood is accessible, except the United
States and Canada. Consequently
the International Sulphite, Fiber & Pa
per Company was organized and the
first mill erected at Alpena, which is
for the purpose merely Of making a
test Of the process.
Fletcher, Pack & Co., of Alpena,
constructed the mill, the work being
superintendent by Messrs. Thilmany
and Wildhagen, German experts in
the business. The machinery and acid
proof digestor lining were all imported
from Germany.
Mr.. Field said that the wood that
can be used in the process to the best
advantage is "Jack pine" a wood
that is almost useless for any other
purpose, although Norway and white
pine, spruce, balsam, tamarack, cedar,
poplar, beach and maple can be used.
In making ordinary printing paper
from fifteen to twenty-five per cent. Of
fiber is used, mixed with common wood
pulp. In the manufacture Of writing
paper, about fifty per cent. Of fiber is
used and the balance is filling, such as
cotton rags. straw, wood pulp, clay,
etc. He says that the prospect is fat
tering, and the company proposes to
push the erection of other plants in
Michigan and Canada as fast rs the
German expert can superintend their
construction.
