Howsumever I could give nabors who could tell you all about me but don't want to-digress fruln my tail. I hev seed the jint snake make jint apintment with its fractional parts after it he'd been broken all up. l hev made half the jlnts unite wrong end fust, then you ort to a-seed it try to crawl. Hit would heave and set, its front half goin forreds and latter half a crawlin tother way-fnally it pulled itself square into with a loud snap, each end turn ing a summerset which broke it's neck.

 The horn snake (had horn on latter eend uv its tale) wuz onct indigenous here, takin it's horn in its mouth and role like hool after it's prey and when in reach, let go it's horn and thrust it into it's prey which found itself on the horn of die femme.

 Paving Bond Bill to be Acted
 Upon Probably Tomorrow.
 HARTFORD. April 25.-In the house the bill amending the charter of the city of New Haven was called from the table by Mr Brandagee of New London. The bill was passed. It provides an amend ment as follows: "There shall be a police department for preserving the peace, good order and security of said city. which shall consist of not more than four captains, not more than eight cen sergeants. not more than two ma irons and such number of regular police men as the board of police commission CTS may from time to time designate. and not more than fifty supernumerary policemen.
 A motion was made and seconded that when the house adjourn tomorrow it be until Monday, May 9th, at 1 o'clock. After long debate the motion passed by a small majority.
 A resolution was introduced by NIr Converse of Stafford Springs instructing the chairmen of the different com mittees to report on the matters now in their hands on or before the 10th of May. The farmers are getting anxious as tC when the lllal duJoltlHllleut Will bt taken. It is getting close on to planting time and it is safe to say that the wheels of legislation will hereafter move with an accelerated motion in the house The resolution was lost.
 A resolution was introduced by Nil Glover of Fairfield reappointing $. E. Burr and Francis Bacon. members of the state board of pardons mold office from June l, 1889. The resolution was passed.
 The two bills authorizing the city ot | Waterbury to issue paving and water bonds are on the calendar and ready fol action by the house. A vote will prob ably be taken on them tomorrow and undoubtedly they will pass without a dissenting voice. There seems to be nc opposition among the members ill per mitting the city to issue the bonds.

PlPklNS' DIPLOMACY.
4 Ecminiscence of Arkansas Politics fl
 tho Early Days.

A Kcminiscence of Arkansas Politics 2n
 tho Early Days.
 In one of the back counties of Arkansas a good many years ago there was a very warm contest for the office of constable of Snake township, being conducted between John Pipllns and Dennis Tomplins, says the Arkansas Gazette. The township was largely composed of a family named Treader, there being about twenty-five votes boiled ill the township. They held the balance of power, and they were to a man for Tompkius. John Pipkins studied the situation thoroughly many sleepless nights, but failed to solve in his mind tho solution of the difficult problem of how to win the election against such large odds. He tried many plans, crystallZed by lonely and studious thought, but none succeeded in turning the Treader vote in his favor. He was finally in despair and had almost de- cided that withdrawal from the roll was his only hope of avoiding ignominious defeat. In this frame of mind, one morning about week before the election, he mounted his sturdy mule and rode down to the cross roads grocery store In those days 1t was the custom for all country establishments of this character to keep "Gcker," and this particular grocery was not an excep- tion. The first man that met the eye of Pipl1ins on his arrival was young Charley Treader Charley was the pet and the | favorlte of all the Treaders, his prestige | arising from tho fact that he could | play the "stiffest" game of poker and | shoot the closest at Q rifle target of | any man in the township. He was thanked | up" that morning, and ready for any klnd | of q fray. Pipkins dismounted as Charley | disappeared in the store, and started to go | in also, when he discovered seated on log a little way from the building brawny son of Erln, who to all appearances had been | deeply imbib;ng the night before and was as dry as chip for another drink. A fortu- nate idea popped into Pipkin's head, and he | approached the 1rishman and said: "1f you will go in there and pound the living lights | out of that young whelp Treader, I'll give you quart of whisky" It didn't require more than minute to complete the trade, and after Pat went into the saloon it re- quired only half that length of time, to bring on the desired conflict With one
 blow of his massive fist the Irlshman felled | Charley to the floor. At this moment Pip kins rushed into the store and knocking the Irishman down, drew his pistol, and ex- | claimed: "Whcn you touch a Treader you touch me! Git from here, you dirty Irish whelp, and if l ever see you in these woods again I'll put your light out!" The aston | ished 1rishman flew, but before he was ! over the line of that township Pipkins had the Treader vote in his pocket. Tompkins, in despair at the turn things had taken, with drew from the race two days later John | Pipkins is now an old man, and distinction has been added to his gray halrs by the title of "Colonel," and sitting by his fireside at night he recounts many political victor ics gained by him through all the years since that first campaign.
