RattIesnake Magnetism.

BRIDGEPORT, Conn. Jan. 10
Andy Austin, the boy who was
charmed by the rattlesnake, has
since become great object Of curios-
ity. Dime museum proprieters have
been most persistent i'm their efforts
to secure him for exhibition, but the
parents refuse to give their consent.
They have had physicians examine
him to see whether he is really sub
iect to rattlesnake magnetism.
Ever since he was charmed he be-
comes transiXed with a vacant
stare at the sound of q child's rattle
and cannot, under any circum-
stances, carry marbles or loose but
tons in his pockets, because the rat
tie disturbs his nervous equilibrium.
Before leaving town the boy was
taken for another look at the snake.
The reptile, which has remained in
u sluggish stupor ever since the
writhing contortions displayed in
disappointment at the loss of its
victim Thursday, strange as it may
seem, recognized the boy at once by
arousing from its torpidity, darting
it's forked tongue, ami rattling its
tail. Andy was hurried away,
trembling and vioibly affected. The
case puzzles many who never before
believed in reptile magnetism.

Why Mr. Cox Was Called "Suusct. :"
Lst: Louis Globe-Democrat.l J

lot' LOUIS
The production which won for Mr..
Cox the sobriquet OF "Suuset" was a
piece of descriptive writing which ap,
peared in the Ohio Statesman, May 10,
1868, and was entitled ga Great Old
Sunset He was in the composing
room of the States the evening be-
fore and witnessed peculiarly beauti-
full sunset. AS the inspiration seized
him he picked up his pencil, and using
an imposing stone for desk hurriedly
wrote the following:
"What peculiar sunset was that of
last night! How llorious the storm
and how splendid the setting of the
sun! We do not remember ever io
have seen the like on our round globe,
The scene opened in the west, with {
whole horizon full of golden interpen'
etrating luster which cUlured the fuii
age aud frightened every object int
its own rich dyes. The coloss grew
deeper and richer, until the COLDER
luster was transfused into storm
cloud, full OF finest lightning, which
leaped in dazzling zigzags oil aroun'

aud over the city. The wind arose
with fury. the slender shrubs aud giant
trees made obeisance to its majesty.
Some even snapped before Its force.
The strawberry beds and grass plats
turned up in their whites to nee Zsphy>
rus march by. As the rain came and
the pools aud the cutters hurried away
thunder roared out grandly and the
fire bells caught the excitenent and
rang With hearty chorus. The south
and east received the c0psous showers
aud the west all at once frightened up
in a long, polished belt of azure, wor>
thy of Siciltan sky.
tsPresentiy cloud appeared In the
azure belt In the form Of casteItated
city. 1t became more vivid, reveal
ing strange forms Of peerless fanes and
aiapaster temples, and gtories rare and
grand in this muntlane sphere. It re-
minds us of Wordsworth's splendid
verse In his tExcursion':
The appearance instantaneeusly disclosed,
Was of a mighty city, boldly cay
wilderness OF buildings, sinking far
Far sinking into splendor without end.
But the city vanished only to give
place to another isle, where the most
beautiful forms Of foliage appeared,
imaging a paradise In the distant and
purled air.
aThe sun, wearied of the elemental
commo.iop, sank behind the green
plains OF the west. The great eye In
heaven however, went not down
withou, dark brow hanging over It's
departing light. The rich flush Of un-
earthly light had passed aud the rain
had ceased when the solemn church
bells pealed. the laughter Of children
out-and joyous after the storm Is heard
with the carol of birds, while the
torked aud purple weapon of the skies
still darted illumination around the
