4 Sunptuous Smokine-ROom.

Russian millionaire has recently had
built for him in st. Petersburg a most
sumptuous smoking groom, which is the
establishment of all the northern capital.
It's richness consists not so much in its
furniture, which is a model of simplicity,
but In its walls. This is literally covered
with European bank notes. Instead of
the mass of white ceiling which forms
the desperation of deciples of William
Norris, is seen a profusion of Austrian
notes most artistically grouped around a
blue ten-forin bank note. Charming de-
signs composed of French, English, Ital-
ian and Russian bank notes adorn the
walls. This curious room has received
many famous visitors from all points of
the compass. Among others a celebrated
Hungarian painter was introduced. He
glanced at the eccentric millionaire and
said with smile:
''Sir, it is pity you have already thus
disposed of your money, for, for the
same amount / would willingly have de-
corated your walls-perhaps more arts
tically indeed, than is now the case-by
covering them with paintings, even as
Michael Angelo did for His Holiness Pope

A Snake Forty Feet Long.

The Huntingdon CIV. Va Republican
publishes letter, under date of New
Milton, Oct. 1, which says: "To-day as
Melzar Braley, aged 20 years, was on his
way to the residence of his brother, in
the valley of Big Two Mile creek, he was
startled when near what is locally known
as the buzzard's dem by hearing the
piteous bleating of a sheep. Anxious to
reach and release the animal from the
cause of its pain, Braley approached the
mouth of the den, a cave in the face of a
nearly vertical cliff Or rocks, when. on
turning the corner of boulder, he was
Mortified to see, half issuing from the
cavern's mouth, the head and about twenty
feet of the body of a gigantic snake. The
reptile had seized the sheep and was in
the act of swallowing it, the hind quarters
and half the animals body having already
disappeared.
"Braley was unarmed, but retreating
and making his way to point above the
snake he rolled heavy stone toward the
locality of the reptile, causing him to re-
lease the sheep and retreat into the cave,
accompanying its movements with loud
kissing sound.
''Braley then fastened to his brothers
house and related his story, when party
of four |as organized and returned to the
dem The snake was not visible, but
from the cavern's mouth there issued a
peculiar and overpowering odor, while
the angry kissing of the angry reptile
could be plainly heard. The party being
afraid to venture within, dispersed, but
tomorrow large number of men are to
visit the cave. and, if possible, kill the
snake.
"From Braleys account it must be at
least forty feet long"

Asia Minors White Terrace.
London Times.


It may not be known to many who de-
plore the recent destruction of the beau
tiful white and pink terraces of Tarawera,
New Zealand, that another white terrace
still exists, not far from home, hear the
ruins of Hierapoiis, in Asia Minor, HER
apolis, called by the turks Pambouk Kali
essi, or Hot Springs, is situated on low
branch of the Misougis mountains, over
looking the Ly-Plain and the ruins of
Gus Lacdicela, Immediately opposite to
ColOsse, which was built on the slope of
the Khonos mountains, and to Denizli
(DiespOlis), on Mount Cadmus. When I
first saw the terrace from the opposite
mountains, some twenty miles off, it look
ed like breast plate of silver on great
mountain giant. When 1 found that it
was formed by hot springs of sulphur
and lime, which descended from a great
elevation in dazzling white cataracts and
formed in their passage downwards by
their petrifying power ice-like cliffs and
seemingly frozen waterfalls, running into
natural basins of beautiful and varied
geometrical shapes, all stalactite covered
petrifcations of fantastic forms. On the
high plateau whence the springs descend
are the ruins of temple once appropri-
ately dedicated to Pluto. The holy hot
bath which stood in the temple court
yard, surrounded by colombo, is still in
fine preservation, and beneath its deep,
clear blue waters can still be seen many
fiuted column and finely carved cornice.
Gas is continually bubbling up from the
bottom of the bath. The chief source of
thd sulphur springs (the ancient plutoni-
um) is cave, from which a vapor issues
fatal to animal life. This was consider
ed short cut to Plutos Internal realms.
Not far off is ruined fountain and els
tern, near to well of sweet water, which
supplied the whole town with that neces
Sarv of life.

A Battle to Death.
Visalia, Cal, Delta .

A long and fierce battle took place this
morning near the Visali2 Agricultural
works between rat and garter snake,
and was witnessed to the finish by a
large number of men. The rat was eau
tious but quick in its actions, and at
every opportunity pcunced upon the
snake and drove its teeth through the
scales. The latter would coil itself and
dart at the rat, striking it sqnarely each
time, and frequently knocking it up into
the air or over on its back. But the rat
would speedily regain its feet and renew
the attack. At one time it grabbed the
snake below the head and held it for
some time until the snake worked itself
loose and returned the compliment by
catching the rat by the neck and shaking
it as a dog would. Mr.. Rat then re-
sorted to strategy, and climbed up short
thick weed.growing on the spot. When
ever the snake would strike at the rat
the latter would quickly drop to the
ground, while the snakes head would pass
through the branches of the weed, giving
the little four-footed strategist an oppor-
tunity to grapple with it. The fight last
ed about three-q uarters of an hour, and
resulted in victory for the rat, which
dragged the corpse of its opponent into
its hole. Neither one of the combatants
paid any attention to the large number
of spectators. On two or three occasions
when his snakeship seemed to think dis
erection the better part of Valor, and turn
ed to retreat, he was pushed back into
the arena with a long stick, when both
would again fall to in dead earnest. It
was a hardwon victory for the rat, and
sympathy seemed to be in his favor from
the first.

Unlucky Friday.
Waterbury American

Because the present day of grace came
in on a Friday, will end on a Friday and
has ffty-three Fridays, people given to
superstition have all along feared and
still apprehend dire calamities; as Friday
is SO generally regarded as an unlucky
day. A glance at the historical past, how
ever, will show that Friday has been
Americas lucky day, many of the most
important events in our annals having
occurred on that day. It was on Friday,
the Sd of August, 1892, that Christopher
Columbus set sail from the port of Palos
on his voyage of discovery. On Friday,
the 18th of October, of the same year, he
sighted land. On Friday, the 4th of Jan
uary, 1893, he set out for Spain to an
nounce his glorious discovery. He land
ed in Andalusia on Friday, the 18th day
of March, 1893. On Friday, une ID, 1894,
he discovered the continent of America.
On Friday, March 5, 1897, Henry VII,
King of England, sent Juan Cabot on
mission which led to the discovery of
North America. On Friday, November
10, 1855, Melendez founded st. Augustine,
the oldest city in the United States. On
Friday, November 10, 1920, the Mayfower
landed the Pilgrim Fathers at the end of
Cape Cod, where Provincetown now
stands. On Friday, December L, 1920,
the immigrants reached Plymouth Rock.
On Friday, February p, Washington was
born. On Friday, June II, Bunker Hill
was captured. On Friday, October s, 1871,
Saratoga surrendered. Arnold's treason
plot was discovered on Friday, Septem-
Der %, 1859. Yorktown surrendered one
Friday in October, 1871. Lastly, it was
on Friday, June Z, 1881, that Richard
Henry Lee read in congress the declara-
ton of independence of the United
States.

A Deluded Dog.
Chicago Journal.

This morning curly brown spaniel
was having lots of fun all to himself in
front of Wan Lees laundry. A sparrow
had alighted upon the front gable of the
laundry. The sun was shining brightly
so that the gable and the sparrow cast a
sharp well-defned shadow upon the
ground near the middle of Ford street
The dog Caught on" to the shadow of the
sparrow, and sitting back in in the sun
shine he watched eagerly and intently
Occasionally the bird would spread its
wings, when the dog would Jump at the
shadow and wondor why he did not catch
it. Then he would sit back, shake his
tail, and repeat the operations when the
bird turned or Topped its wings. After
awhile the bird flew away and as its shad-
ow went skimming along the ground the
dog went after it at the top of his speed
until the shadow was lost in the greater
shadow of the Seymour House. The dog
went back to the gable shadow to look
for more bird shadows, and kept vigi-
liant watch until the rolling of the earth
caused the gable shadow to vanish.
There is a moral in this: When you
think you have got your eye on some
thing important be sure it is not a shad
