The Monkeys ard the Boa.

An officer stationed at Kalladgee,
india, was once climbing a rocky
hill, wheA he and native who &C
companled him, witnessed the follow
ing episode: A poor monkey was
being slowly enwrapped in the vol
luminous folds of an enormous boa,
its bones breaking like pipe stems by
the pressure. Gradually the reptile
unwound itself, leaving a crushed,
unacceptable mass. The numerous
monkeys on the rock were in the
greatest state of excitement, running
wildly about, gesticulating, chatter
ing and moaning, though, Of course,
powerless to help their comrade.
While the snake was commencing its
gorge, and before its body began to
FIJI and swell, the officer and native
went in quest of stout cudgel and a
sharp knife, expecting to make it an
easy prey as soon as it should be filled
to repletion. When they returned to
the scene of strife the boa lay thor
oughly gorged, beneath a projecting
mass of cliff, looking more like log
than anything more lively. On the
summit above a troop of monkeys
were assembled, and three or four of
the largest and strongest were occu-
pied in displacing q massive fragment
of rock already loosened by the rains
from the main ledge By enormous
exertion made, too, with a silence
quite unusual to monkeys--they at
length, succeeded in pushing the rock
until it trembled just over the boa's
head; then, uttering a yell of tri-
umph, they dropped it over the nina
ture precipice. 1t struck the boa on
the head, MASKING it to Jelly. AS
its great tail dashed about ineffectu-
ally in its last struggle, there was a
general chorus of xaltation-man
joining his near relative, if we be-
lieve some of our instructors over
this well-accomplished act OF ven
geance.

Niagara in Winter.

The late snowfall and intensely
cold weather has transformed the
scenery of Niagara Falls into vision
OF wondrous beauty. Frozen spray
has given a silver coating TO every
object in the neighborhood of the falls
and this is capped with pure white
snow. In the immediate vicinity of
the falls and along the banks The icy
stalactites and stalagmites have as
sumed enormous lengths, and the ice
cones at the foot of both falls no "
reach nearly half way up to the top
OF the falls. The ice mountain is
daily growing in magnitude, and the
pen utterly fails to describe the won
drous beauty of the scene during
these sunny days and moonlight
nights.

game OF him, he couldn't hope to win
in the long rum Morse told him
he was not IN practice, as he had late
ly turned his attention TO chess. How
ever, he would play few games, if it
would be an accommodation. The
Montana man had looked good
while for q victim, and he did not
propose to let this one off, aud they
went at it. Morse won the first game
and Montana spent five minutes in
telling the spectators how he lost it.
The Hartford man couldn't quite see
1t, but, for fear that Montana was
laying" for him, he kept quiet and
let the nan from the West tell how
he ought to have done it. In min
ute the Western man pulled his face
down, and his eyes assumed a serious
look, as he remarked, "have got 10
tend to bis" and he jumped two of
MorSe's men, and the latter retaliat-
ed by jumping four of his. Thatll
be the last game you'll get from me, y
said Montana, and Morse thought he
was going to see the Montana style u
checkers. Not a word was spoken
but a shade OF disgust deepened on
Montana's fate. In few moments
he uttered an exclamation of surprise.
"Skunked " he shouted, and he swept
the men from the board, with a look
OF sheer disgust. There amt man
in our diggin's that kin do that!" At
it they went again, and once more
Montana yielded to the Yankees
skill. II never had such streak Of
luck before" said the Montana man,
and not till he had lost eleven
straight games did he surrender, and
then he thought he had had pretty
hard luck. In bidding Morse good-by
he remarked. "It is the first time I've
been taken down since I left Mon
tans. Nobody out there could beat
me-"
He came TO Hartford to find a
checker player. He foaud him.

Natural Science and Happiness.
London Spectator,

So far as human happiness lies in
the exercise Of those faculties which
constitute mans physical diferettttd
the study OF natural science affords
its students the amplest, the most
varied. and the most unalloyed en-
Joyment of existence. The student OF
the forms and modes of life in particu-
lar hnd9 his curiosity at once daily
stimulated, and in a measure satisfied,
while his powers grow with use and
enable him continually to widen his
horizon and deepen his insight. He
IS confined neither to the labratory
nor to the library. His field of inquiry
is ting whole organic world, past and
present. He must be a def manipu-
lator and keen observer, untiring in
the harvesting of facts, and at once
logical and imaginative in the gener-
allzatlons he found upon them, No
olgotry dogs his footsteps, and no
dogma arrests his progress. His re
trained enthusiasm never descends to
frenzy, and idols of all kinds have for
MN but an inciden tai and temporary
attraction. Hence his full life IS
empty Of every form of ennui, and, if
powers are fairly commensurate with
ms ambitions, it is brigh. by the con
slant JOY Of strenuous and successful
mental activity, each period Of which
brings aim nearer to the comprehen-
SION and appreciation Of the supreme
resultant of all the known forces of
the universe.

A Story of Poker Cheeks.

another Mine Disaster.
TAIRTY-sEvE MEN SUPPOSED TO BE
KILLED.

KILLED.
WHEELING, w. Va, Jan. 2l.-At
2:45 o'clock this afternoon an explo-
sion Of fire damp ACQUIRED in the
shaft OF the New burg Oriel Coal COM
pany at Newburg, West Virginia,
which shook buildings in the imme.
date vicinity, and caused consterua-
hon and alarm among relatives ana
friends of the miners employed there.
Immediately following the sound of
the explosion flame of fire arose for
above the mouth Of the shaft, timber
and debris of all kinds was strewn
around. Great excitement ensued
and crowds of people hurried to the
scene of the shaft IN which the expto.
sion occurred. The Shaft was sunk
about two years ago and has reached
depth of $50 feet. From the base of
the shaft, the main heading runs
out about half mile to where the
narrow rooms civerge from either
side.
THE THEORY ADVANCED
as to the cause of the explosion is
that fire damp had accumulated in
one OF these rooms, and was acciden-
tally ignited by miners lamp, but
nothing positive has yet been learned.
The force of the explosion blocked
the air SO close that no one
would venture into the main
heading to ascertain the fate OF
the imprisoned men until passage
could be established. This work is
being pushed vigorously. Up TO
midnight no bodies had been recover
ed II is supposed that thirty-seven
men are imprisoned. The prevailing
opinion is that all are dead, although
a few express the hope that
some of them may escape the effect
of the explosion, and have been
able to reach place free from the
fatal black damp which always fol-
lows an explosion of this kind.
The scenes at the shaft are heart
rending. Fathers. mothers, wives
and children linger in groups with
palled faces, auxlously waiting some
tidings from their loved ones which
will either bring them hope or end
the suspense. Every effort is being
made to rescue the unfortunates, but
it is thought there is no prospect of
reaching them tonight.
