There are places In South Georgia
where men extract oil from the rattle
snake and use It to cure rheumatism.
These persons will give a negro 81 to
point out a rattlesnake to them, and
then they kill it In a peculiar manner.
They place a forked stick Over the
snakes head, then put a cord around
1t and strangle the snake. This Is done
to keep the snake from biting itself.
The body of the reptile is then strung
up and the oil extracted from it. 1t
sells at 81 per ounce, and this industry
is n very profitable one The snakes
in that section are very large, averag-
ing i've feet in length, and one RATHER
gives up a great deal of oil. A little
negro once saw two rattlers lying close
together, and wanted to get the money
for finding them. 1t was a mile to the
nearest house. He was afraid the
snakes would crawl off while he was
gone, and so took off his coat and
placed 1t between the two snakes. He
went of, came back and found them
still eying the coat, He had them
charmed. So the snake Is cultivated
down there as a profitable industry

while visiting one of the small towns
along Puget sound said ]. NJ Mallett,
of Helena, ~ was greatly interested in
the way the Siwash Indians build their
canoes. 1t is really wonderful how these
dirty aborigines can, with the crudest
mean and with a few days work, con-
vert an unwieldy log into a trim and
pretty canoe. One Monday morning 1
saw q buck building a FIRE at the base of
a canoe that he intended to use upon the
following Saturday. he kept the fire
burning merrily all that day and far
into the night, when g wind came up
and completed the downfall of the mon
arch Of the forest.
"The next day the buck arose betimes,
and borrowing a cross cut saw from g
logger who was absent cut the trunk of
the tree in twain at a point some fifteen
feet from where it had broken off, and
her with a dull Ratchet he hacked
away until the log had assumed the
shape of the desired canoe. In this work
he was helped by his sqpaw. The old
fellow then built a fire on the upper side
If the log, guiding the course of the fire
with daubs of clay, and in due course of
time t:c interior Of the canoe had been
burned out. Half a days work with the
Ratchet rendered the interior smooth
and shapely. The canoe was now, l
thought, complete, though it appeared
10 be dangerously narrow OF beam. This
the Indian soon remedied.
He filed the shell two-thirds full of
water, and into the fluid he dropped half
a dozen stones that had been heating in
the fire for nearly a day. The water at
once attained a boiling point and 50
softened the wood that the buck and the
squaw were enabled to draw out the
sides and THUS supply the necessary
breadth TO the beam. Thwarts and stats
were then placed in the canoe and the
\ water and stones thrown out. When
cogs steamed wood began 10 cool and

inc via AoEsEh o AUSTRALIA
1t may be some twenty years or SO
ago, says the authors of sCassell's Pict-
uresque Australasia" that a settler
lost two valuable mares. The sand
flies were bad, and driven by them,
now walking and now trottlng, these
mares, one followed by a noble colt
foal, never touched by mans hand,
and with blood In him that could tell
of EPSON and the grand national, jour
neyed on toward the west.
Fifty miles from their owners home
is reached; but the country Is rugged
and not to their taste, and on they go.
Another fifty miles, and a pleasant val
ley affords good water and plentiful
grass; but a sudden panic-caused,
perhaps, by a party Of blacks chasing
native game-starts them afresh, and
still westward they go, till finally they
rest in peace far from the dwellings of
men-far from the sound of Changing
hobble chain or tinkling horse bell.
Month after month rolls on. Each
mare foals again, and two strangers,
straying from some other part, Join
themselves to the little herd of five and
raise their number TO yer. Then an
other summer begins, and four addi-
tionAl little foals bring up the total to
eleven, Recruits began to pour in as
civilization invaded the wild west, and
when finally they were first really de-
terminedly hunted by the white man,
he succeeded in taking but a few OF the
quietor ones, while those which escaped
became sharper than the sharpest,
wilder than the widest, and heeter
than the tieetest roebuck.

TIE NEW PAVING.

THE work OF preparing the
ground for the asphalt pavement TO
be laid on the sidewalk on the north
side OF South Temple Street has
begun. We consider that a grave
mistake is being made in not putting
it close 70 the fence line bordering
the private premises along the route,
instead OF fl We feet from it. We can
hardly believe that any property
owner in the locality would prefer
il as now intended to he done. II
we are right in this there should be
an appropriate protest, that the
needed change may be made.
We Understand the intention to
&c 10 have the five feet ribbon kept

highly impractieable, as it VIII be
next to impossible to keep pedes-
trians, especially youngsters, from
walking on it, especially as it is
located close to the fence line. This
would not be near so great

fence and the grass plot maintained

w.sHINGToN, April q The
Senate committee on agriculture
and forestry bad under consideration
Senator Vance's bill 20 provide for
a system II warehouses for farm
produce Throughout the country to
be operated by ths government,
which is TO issue notes upon deposits
Of grain therein.
Col. Polk, president Of the Ma
tional Farmers Alliance, read n
long argument in support OF the
measure which he said was fOrmu-
lated by n committee appointed by
n convention OF the National Farm
ers' Alliance and Industrial ALI
ance, held at st. Louis, Decepnber
3, 1859. He sketched the decline in
agricultural values in the face OF the
marvellous progress aud develop
ment Of other industries and
interests during the past two
decades. and insisted that same
thing should be done for the farmer.
He charged the fault upon financial
system Of the government, which
resulted In high priced money and
low priced products. The remedy,
Col. Polk suggested, was three-fold:
First, 10 restore silver 10 its dignity
and place it rs money metal with
all the rights OF coinage and all the
qualities Of legal tender which
gold possesses. Second, to issue
sufficiet amounts Of currency direct
TO the people at n low rate Of interest,
TO meet the legitimate demands Of
the business Of the country, and
which shall be legal tender for all
debts, public and private. Third,
TO secure 10 such issues equal dig.
nifty with money metals, by hasing
II on real, tangible, substantial val
ues.
Colonel Polk was followed by
DIR. =. w. McCuue, chairman
Of the national committee on
legislation Of the alliance, and
who addressed himself more par
ticularly 10 the merits and de-
tails Of the system OF warehouses rs
outlined in the bill. He asserted
that merchandise thus stored would
not deteriorate below the market
standard; that the system had proved
feasible aud practicable in Califor-
mia, where the Changers Bank, In
lSs9. loaned 50, 600, OOO on certificates
issued TO the farmers on wheat de
posted in warehouses owned and
controlled by them.
