A SNAKE Plays with u Cat.
New York Times.l

There was some excitement on Acade-
my Hill, Roundout. n. Y. A small boy
there saw cat acting in q strange man
Der in Mrs. Hetzeps yard. The cat
would Jump into the air, retreat few
steps, then bound forward and strike
at something with its fore paws.
The boy crept noiselessly through
the fence INTO the yard and
saw an odd sight The Cat was
playing with a snake about two feet IN
length and the reptile seemed 20 enjoy
the sport as much as the feline. rbe
snake, at every charge Of the cat, would
rise up, put out its tongue, and wiggle,
as the small boy said, with delight The
onslaughts of the four-legged animal did
not seem TO frighien il in the least The
boy could not stand the pressure OF the
excitement Of the scene. and he ran from
the yard shouting that cat and a
snake we're fighting "hke SIXTY.
Women armed with hrooms, rskes, hoes,
ETC.. ran into the yard, and lively time
followed. The snake caught sight OF ITS
foes and tried to get away. The women
ran after it. but every time II turned Its
head they screamed at the top Of then
voices. Finally one Of the women, by a
chance blow with rake, killed the rep
tile.

Edward Weitzel, one Of Detroit's in
dustrious Young dramOtists, tells thus
story on himself: Last March, while
in Chicago. was introduced to an actor
who was stopping at the same hotel.
After pleasant chat with him, during
which found him both we'll informed
and aiEable, he suggested that we so to
restaurant and have dinner. l agreed
and we started out. On our way there
he invited me ia to one OF the 'dizzies,
as they are called by the actorS to
have something. There were several
seedy-looking fskirs in the place, who
all seemed to know my new friend, and
no gave them an invitations to lOIn us

had given our order the host turned to
me and remarked in al uDdertone, but

Which OF the dogs started the deer 7
The deer was brought on shore and laid
on the green swnrd, where even the
ladies. gentle creatures, admired it..
Soon the boat arrived with the two dogs,
and one of the old hunters cried out
"Send those hounds up here, and let us
see whose deer this is " Never having
heard so strange o story, half in doubt,
said "What nonsense IS that you are
talking?" "Nononsense, Doctor; wait
and see.

deer, smelt him all over and seemed

deer and deliberately laid himself down

dog quietly placed his tail between his
Ices and walked away. | could not help
expressing my amazement, aud stu
doubting the fact said TO my old guide :
"That dog that is lying by the deer has
been the master OF the other and has
cowed him." "On the contrary" said
my informer, 1.-THE dog that gave up the
deer is the better fighter, and whips that
dog every time.
We learned during the day that the
deer had been started ten miles down
the river by the dog that claimed 1t, and
the sound Of his voice drew the other
one. about four miles below the lake !;
confirming the test and proving the
wonderful instinct of the hound.

The Democrats of Rjchlaud district held
large meeting yesterday afternoon, at the
brick =chool house, for the purpose Of
taking the first steps towards organizing n
campaign club. The meeting was not
only a large one, hut there was great en-
thusiasm manifested, and every indication
that the Democrats OF the upper end Of
the county are awake and alive to the
Importance of the campaign soon to com
mence.
The meeting was presided over by Peter
D.laplaine. Mr. Pannt Garden acting as

Four Members Continue the Debate OH
the Mills BIN.
WASHINGTON, May 12.-The House
went into Committee of the Whole on the
Mills bill. Mr. Townsend, of Illinois, spoke
in support of the bill. The issue, he said.
was not protectionts and free trade The
only issue raised by the bill was whether
Congress would reduce the high tarin
created during the war, which was wholly
unnecessary now and produced distress
among the masses Of the people The bill
did not 90 far enough. 1t did not go so
far as the President had indicated il should
go, nor rs far as Senator Sherman had de
clared it might safely 90, yet it gave
relief to an OyertaXed people and
would have his support 1t was
"a conservative and iudicious mOdi-
lication of the tariff on fair business
basis. Projections should he thanktul
that more radical measure had not been
demanded. He warned them that if this
fair and reasonable proposition was re-
iectei, the people would send representa-
tive here VINO would adopt n far more
radical measure. He denied the assertion
that the bill was sectional cne, drafted
for the benefit of the Southern States. aud
he declared that that assertion would have
no weight with the people, whom it was
intended TO deceive.
The gentleman from Pennsylvania and
the gentleman from Maryland Kelley and
NCEumLsl had been wild with fear that
coal and iron ore were pnt upon the free
list by the bill lie denied that the bill
did this, hut even il 1t did, il WAS strange
that the Democrats should be arraigued IN
bloody shirt speeches ~ d,4loylI, when
they had simply stepped in the footprints
OF leading Republicans in the Senate.
Mr Kelly said the bill did in . roundabout
but eiiectuIl way put coal and iron ore on
the tree list Coal and iron ore were crude
minerals Unwrought, and the bill put
crude minerals unwrOught on the list
Mr.. Townsend replied that lie had been
informed that if the bill was CquivocaI on
that point il would he amended. But
even if the bill did put coal on the free
list, wa@ that crime when gentlemen
who were among the Republican leaders
had drNanicd that coal should go on the
tree list, at time when the rate OF taxa
ton was lrss than il was to-day. In ISL
Gen. Garfield had voted to put coal and
salt on the free list, and 20 had MessT5
Fry, Hale and Dawes.
Mr.. Kelly explained that General Gar
field had changed his views in lo1~ aud
hal become a high protectioni5t.
After consideration Of the subject Mr..
Townsheud declared that the Representa-
lives from the West could not vote uglinstit
without hetaying their constituents. lie
lid not charge any improper motives. The
gentlemen might be drlUded, bat il they
were sincere IN advocacy OF protection they
were d,lUded to such an extent ~ 10 oh
struct what was lur the best Interests ot
the people. The time for action was at
hand. The Democratic party must re
deem the pledges 1t had made to the peO-
pie.
Further debate was continued by Rep.
reWntatiycs Cannon, Illinois; MilIiken,
Maine, and Allen, Mississippi, after which
the committe" rose and tn" House ad
