SNAKES IN TROUBLE
Now an Old Farmer Cleaned Out an Army
of HHaeIS-SnaTxes
TMiddlehargh pa Post.I


Mr.. Wills. Weller, residing about two
miles south Of Maddleburgh, at the foot of
Shsde Mountains while engaged in clear
ing piece of new ground on his farm on
Thursday Of last week, was terribly an
noyed by the number of blaclx-snakes on
the patch. some no killed, but great
many escaped his ''brush fork and near
~ all ran in the direction of q large brush
pile in the coEner of the patch and close to
a bank over aspiring which was covered
by thick growth of underbrush. He
concluded to Investigate matters little,
and it did no1 take him long to satisfy
himself that hd had struck colony of the
reptiles which lad taken harbor under the
pile of dry brush.
he noticed particularly large one
basking in the sun few yards from the
place, and he proceeded to get rail from
the fence with which to despatch it, but in
doing so he broke one of the stakes on the
fence. The noise caused by the breaking
of the stake evidently aroused the sleep
ing reptiles, and he witnessed q perfect
voI1ey of snakes starting from under the
thick underFEush into she brush pile. He
stood riyIted to the spot with astonish-
ment, and looking up saw no less than
twenty SNAKES of all sizes sticking their
heads out of the brush pile. Remember
ing that he had used a bundle of long
straw for a seat on his ''stone boat,' he
fastened to get it, and setting it on FIRE,
cast it over the brush.
In an instant the whole pile was one
blaze, and he then witnessed a scene
which he says no one would ever care to
behold again. The heat was so intense
that none of the reptiles could possibly
escape, and they rolled out of 1t black,
blinded and scorched, biting at every
thing they touched, and in most instances
died with their fangs fastened in their
own charred bodies-eYidently preferring
suicide to death in the flames. Some
darted from the outside into the fire,
madly striking at the flames, until their
bright Mack coats had been turned into
an ashen gray by the heat. In fifteen
minutes a smouldering stump was all that
was left of the brush pile. He was about
to leave the spot, when he ventured to
look ipto the stump, which was hollow,
where, covered by a thin layer of ashes,
lay no less than a bucketful of snakes, re-
ssmbling huge sausages in large crock,
roasted just hard enough TO cause the
Gesh to drop off.

CUBAN WOMEN.

An Enthusiastic Description of Their Nu-
merous and Marvellous Charms.
In the physical beauty of the Cuban
woman the commanding features are
the foot, whose daintiness and sym
metry are marvellous, the supple, will
Lowry grace of movement of person; the
exquisitely-modeled form, and the
eyes, which never lose their luster and
glow.
Cuban women wear shoes no larger
than the No. l size for women in the
States. Nor is this diminutive size the
result of any pinching process. She is
born that way.
She is the most graceful woman on
her feet, in her walk and carriage, in
the promenade, or in the dance, you
ever saw.
OF her form, it is perfection. Nine
women out of ten you meet are models
of symmetry. There is a greater deli
cacy in fine and proportion. They
do not SO torture their persons or them
selves.
The Cuban woman's face may be
said to be wholly interesting and lovely
rather than wholly beautiful. It's
beauty is in its expression rather than
in its repose. The face is of the Latin
mold, oval, and with a delicate pro-
truding Of pretty and shapely chin.
Her complexion is warm, creamy, with
no carnation in her cheeks. But her
mouth, large, mobile, tremulous, with
just suggestion of pathos in the slight
drawing down at the corners, has lips
SO red and ripe that her ever-perfect
teeth dazzle in brilliant contrast. Her
hair is of that lead-black darkness
which suggests a weird, soft mist upon
the night, and is indeed a glory ever.
But her eyes are her priceless, crown
ing loneliness, her never-ending power
and charm. They can not be de-
scribed. When you say chat behind
their long, dark, half-hiding lashes
they are large. dark, dreamy, yet
glowing. flashing with fire, liquid with
ianpuor. YOU have only limited their in
ezpressible expressiveness- They are
the same eyes at nine, nineteen and at
ninety.-PhtIadelph Aea0s.

CURE FOR ALCOHOLISM.
What a Detection of Ground Quassia and

What Detection of Ground Quassia and
Vinegar Did for One Inebriate.
We believe the best authorities are
generally skeptical as to there being
any sure cure for confirmed habits Of
inebriety unless the effort in that di-
rection be aided by a strong exercise
of the will of the unfortunate subject Of
the bad habit. There are, however,
many remedies recommended as aids
in diverting, or, in minor degree,
satisfying the appetite for strong
liquors., which are undoubtedly OF
great advantages in some cases, and
one of these is recommended by a self
styled rescued man.

given to strong drink. When | left it

small teaspoonful of it in a little water,
and to drink it down every time the
liquor thirst came on me violent. /

WINTERING BEES.

a Method Which Has Successfully Stood
the Test of twenty-five Years.
In his early experience Mr.. Ira Bar
Der, of New York, had experienced all
the troubles that now come to so MANY
in wintering, and had tried all manners
and places that appeared reasonable.
but, as rule, he lost from thirty to
seventy-fve per cent. He has now, fol-
twenty-five years, been successful in
winterino his bees in a warm, damp
cellar. He preferred a warm atmos-
phere because it was the bees natural
element, and a damp one because the
bees We're more quiet and healthier.
He took caps from the hives and with
them paved the cellar bottom, ard then
set the hives upon them, packing them
closely together. If the bees became
uneasy and left the hive. they entered
some other and no harm was done.
In a warm cellar, where the tempera-
ture is from sixty degrees to ninety
degrees, there is no discharge from the
bees unless it is in a dry state. The
cellar must be closed. with no current
of air passing through it to arouse the
bees. a three-inch pipe at the top OF
the room furnished sufficient ventila,
AlO4 AO4 Two Au4A0A u COASAI4Cs. NO AZ
ward ventilation IS given the hives
The warm atmosphere disposed of all
the moisture arising from the bees,
hence no absorbents were needed,
The bees were put in the cellar before
the advent Of cold weather and moi
taken out until there was something
TO do in the spring. The bees were
wintered upon natural stores and the
pollen left in.-farnl, Field ard Stock

GOTHAM sNOBBERY.
The Fine Lines Drawn by the Members

N V Cor Son Ern,,cisnc, Arnnnn,,t1

The Fine Lines Drawn by the Members
of the New York '.AristOcracy.''
IN. Y. Cor. San Francisco Argonout.l
Snobbery is rampant now, and no line
Is drawn more finely than that which
separates the world of fashion from trade
and from s'the city," as the business part
of the town and its inhabitants are now
called. All this is quite recent, too. I am
a native Of New York and I remember
very well when rich merchants, doctors,
brokers, Wall street operators and even
the heads of great retail shops found their
vocations no bar to social recognition.
Not so now. Against them all the pro-
testing hand is raised. The banker is
recognized, but not the broker. A few
years ago the jolly, free, lively, richly
dressed and spendthrift broker was con-
sidered no end of a good fellow. Now he is
looked on as q vulgar and noisy man who
conducts gambling operations for clients
and drinks champagne over bar. The
doctor receives money from society.
Hence he is as much society's servant as
the dry goods merchant, and neither can
be regarded as an equal. In a word,
society in New York to-day is power
that makes its own laws and draws them
more severely every season. There are
only two things about it that New
Yorker finds to admire-its respect for old
residents of the town and it's contempt for
every other society. 1t snubbed an earl
and blaclIbalIed lord at one of it's clubs
last month without moments hesitancy.
Its members form the only leisure class
we have in America. They detest trade.
Pm sure that l have made a great mistake
in admitting that my Boston friends had
a father who was an apothecary, and
that they once took q boarder to oblige
distant cousin.

THE COMING coLoRs.

Black to be Restored TO the Popularity En-
ioyed by 1t Formerly.
Navy blue and brown viii be the
eolors most generally worn next sea-
son. This is plainly shown in the i'm
portatiOns of cloths, velvets and other
dress goods, in dress trimmings and in
all millinery goods. With the pur-
plish marine blues cardinal red will be
restored for contrasts, while the bright
poppy reds will be used with the new
olives, which have more green than
the brownish and yelloW-tinted olive
shades of last year. Black viii be re-
stored to the favor it formerly had for
Young and old alike, and which it has
never really lost with rich women who
can afford to wear the costliest black
fabrics. The new blue shades are
Salammbo and serpe1ate and cd12drd,
with gray and green tints in them, yet
entirely different from the peacock
blues, or the cadet gray blue of past
seasons. The new browns are rose
wood and n1ure (mulberry) for very
dark shades, with lighter capucine,
cafe, and maroon tints, while for the
red-browns are EtrUscan and AcGj0U
or mahogany. Dahlia and heiotrope
and plum shades are in great favor
with French women, and will make
refined costumes of cloth or velvet,
while for lighter dresses for the house
are Ophelia and mauve shades of cash
mere, with softly repped faille or vel
vet in combination. Gobelin is another
name given to the Salammbo blue
tints. Suede, salmon, corn and rose
are the pale shades most seen, while
there are various shades of green
Chartreuse, pistache and moss-with
dull Uie21u rouge and other more vivid
red shades already noted.-HaTper' s

GRACE'S SACRIFICE:
Also the Heavy Cross Worn by
Mrs. Osborne.

Pretty little Grace Wentworth list
ened eagerly for her husbands coming
steps. She had been married but a
year, and that evening was the ami
versary of her wedding.
"He will bringme that exquisite dia-
mond ring, I'm sure. Linnette Os-
born's husband gave her am elegant
pearl cross on their anniversary, Harry
knows. I'm just wild about that ring,
and-ah! here he comes now,' She
said.
A moment after a quick, firm step
came through the hall, the door opened
and Harry Wentworth came forward,
kissed the bright lips held up to him
and. taking off the wrapping, held for
ward an exquisite bouquet of rare ex.
otics.
Here, darlingr' he said. II want
ed to bring you something different to-
day, but ! dared not TO do it, We must
wait for better times. This day, the
anniversary of the very happiest of my
life, thought to have brought my lit
tie wife something Of greater value to
express my appreciation and love. But
these flowers must speak for me-"
Grace took the flowers, pressed them
70 her lips to hide their quivering, but
she could not hide from the loving,
watchful eyes of her husband the look
of disappointment all over her face.
"There, there! never mind, love.
know Won are disappointed, but cheer
mp, little wife / trust this sad state OF
affairs viii, not last very long, and then
you shall have your diamond ring,
Harry said, gently caressing her.
AT the mention of the ring Grace
could restrain her tears no longer.
She sobbed right out.
-Four days ago Linnette Osborn s
husband gave her a lovely pearl cross
and chain, and-and / told her what
hoped for. She will think it so queer,
and / will be so mortified. What can
I sayP She Will surely ask me. And,
Harry, / don't think Win Osborne is
doing any better business than YOU"
Harry Wcntworth's fine face grew
very grave as he said, in slightly re-
proachful tone;
Il did not think my wife would
grieve so about a really unnecessary
article. / believed you would under.
stand that some very good reason pre-
vented my giving you this pleasure.
], too, am disappointed, dear. But
don't measure or weigh your hus.

must not be so severe. You are scarce

spoiled child. But now listen, dear,
