A SNAKE STORY FROM MExIco.-The
following story is from Mexican newspa-
per: A family in San Luis Potosi pos
sessed a very fine rattlesnake. They had
captured it by means of a forked stick
when it was but baby, and succeeded in
demonstrating it. In the course of years it
grew to be fourteen feet in length, and be-
came tame and playful, never showing the
slightest symptom of anger when handled
by the children, but it would not allow its
rattles to be touched. 1t became very
much attached to its master, and would
follow him around the house like dog.
During the recent storm in San Luis many
of the houses were struck by lightning.
The bolts were falling fast about the dwell
ing which had sheltered the snake from
childhood. Nobly determined to die for
its benefactors, the serpent crawled up the
outside walls of the house, and mounting
the roof it stood on its head in perpen-
dicular position for the space OF several
minutes, shaking its rattles violently at the
heavens, like Ajax defying the lightning.
The electricity attracted by this living
lightning rod reduced to ashes the noble
animal and also the house"

HOW THEY STAND.
California Members Express Themselves
on the Tariff Bill.

lCopygh, 1883, dyth California Associated PressI
WASHINGTON, March 1st.-Among the
members of the California delegation there
is but one expression of opinion as regards
the Ways and Means bill and that is that
it would strike severe blow at every in
dustry of the State that now enjoys the
protection OF law. Every Republican
member of Congress from the Pacific coast
will oppose it, tooth and nail. The ques-
ton is, what are Representatives Biggs and
Thompson going to do about it? Both are
bitterly opposed to the free wool PROPOSE
ton, but neither will fatty declare that he
will vote against a bill that has free wool
in Its schedule.
correspondent said: " / am unalterably
opposed to free wool, and l shall do all in
my power to have it stricken from the
bill"
But what will you do if the Democrats
retain free wool-will you vote for the
bill?"
THAT / cannot say" answered Biggs.
az have not seen the bill. and | could
not give an explicit answer till | examine

But you know what is in the bill, Just
as well as though you had seen it." said
your correspondent.

Only | am against free wool and free
prunes."
Mr.. McKeuna, after examining the bill,
said. If the Democratic party of Califor-
MIA are in favor of Government admins
tered for the benefit of the people of Cali
fornia, then it can no longer have anything
in common with the National Democratic
Administration. Every industry of Cali
fornia affected by the tariff is directly or
indirectly injured by this bill"
Mr.. Morrow said You can say in as
strong language as you choose to employ,
that no Californian having the welfare of
his State at heart can afford to vote for this
bill. 1t is a deadly blow TO our
most prosperous industries 1t is
most singular that the Democratic
party, which has always professed
such regard for the agricultural classes,
and upon whom its lea,iers have said the
burdens of the tariff fall most severely,
should pick out this very class of men en-
gagged in wool-growing, in timber-cutting
and fruit-raising, TO deprive them of the
protection they need TO successfully prose
cute their business | am against the bill,
first, last, and all the time"
Representative Mckinley, of Ohio, said !.
This is most vicious bill. The claim
that it will reduce revenues $50 00Qo, eco is

SOUTHERN INDusrRY-The marvellous
Developments of the exhaustless mineral
and metallic resources of the Southern
States during the past ten years is not vet
fully understood in the North. The bare
and cold statistics that tell the story of
these developments is phenomenal and
startling. We are freshly reminded of
this by the statements of the Birming-
ham (Ala.) Age, which says that there
will be constructed this year, in
Alabama, twenty new iron furnaces,
with an average output of 1000 tons
a day or 100000 tons per annum-
This output, with that of the exist
ing furnaces, will place the output
of 1888 up to about 100000 tons,
and it is the expectation of Alabam-
ians that this year their State will con-
test with Ohio the honor of being the sec
ond iron-producing State in the Union.

How Men Die.

If we know all the methods of approach
adopted by an enemy we are the better en-
abled to ward off the danger and postpone
the moment when surrender becomes in
evitable. In many instances the inherent
strength of the body suffices to enable it to
oppose the tendency toward death. MANY,
however, have lost these forces to such an
extent that there is little or no help In
other cases little aid to the weakened
lungs will make all the difference between
sudden death and many years of useful
life. Upon the first symptoms of cough
cold or any trouble of the throat or lungs
give that old and well-known remedy
Boschees German Syrup--a careful trial.

be, the "benefactor of any home"
