Prev of the Jungle.

The latest official statistics from India
show that in 1889 22970 were killed by
snakes and wild beasts as we'll as 1921
cattle. OF the former number 20, 81 deaths
were due to snake bites, 975 to tigers, 1S4 to
leopards, 139 to wolves, 40 to bears, 81
to elephants, and the remain der to dogs,
crocodiles and other animals. The remark
able fact of these statistics is that, although
every effort is being made to destroy snakes
and other animals injurious to human life,
the mortality, both of persons and CATTLE
from these causes of death is increasing. In
1888 20, 700 wild beasts were destroyed and
511, 94S snakes.
The local Governments of India have just
been consulted on the question whether nOtn-
ing can be done to diminish the terrible NOR
tally due to snake bites. The general opinion
in India is that the efforts to reduce this NOR
talitv by offering rewards for snakes killed
asfailed, and in some localities has even slim
lated the breeding of snakes. Some Of the
local Governments express the opinion that
the most effective way to check tho evil will
be to destroy the cover for the snakes near
the villages, and this experiment will be
tried. The provinces most seriously affected
are Bengal Ouhd, and the northwest pro-
vinceS.

FLOOD, FAMINE AND FIRE.

Great Loss OF Life, Destitutton. ana
Destruction of Property In China.
A letter from Shanghai gives the details
of terrible floods and famine in Northern
China. The Governor-General of Ii Hing
Chang reports that the people of shuan suf-
fered terribly by food which destroyed
temples, bridges and city walls in no less
than ten districts. In Wen Chuan the loss
of life will reach fully thousand.
Immediately following the foods at Pei
Chang fire started and destroyed thirty-ive
houses. In three other places houses were
burned to the number of 200 The suffering
among the poor is something terrible. The
roads everywhere are difficult Of passage and
crowds of starving wretches are on their way
to Shanghai, and how to deal with them viii
be an anxious and difficult problem for those
in power to solve.

DEATH OF A HERMIT.
He Begged for Food, ThsRugh He Had
Amassed a Fortune.

five years, residing at Germantown, n. j.,

says: Six Union mail, passenger aud express
trains are blockaded by a blizzard at Chev-

are on the side tracks here. The storm
which is a characteristic bowling blizzard,
opened at 10 O'Clock in the night end continued
1urlOusly for seventeen hours. Snow is piled
up, packed and crusted. The wind was
sharp and the temperature below zero.
Severe range losses are predicted, but it is
doubtful II much stock will succumb, as this
is the first storm Of any sort. Cattle VIII be
chilled, but, under sunshine will recover
Sheep, if out of the pens, huddle III packs
like sardines and smother themselves.
There is not a little distress in towns
along the roads. Only the strongest men
have cared to face the storm. Many were
caught short of food and fuel.
The storm is pretty general in the North
west, although North Dakota seems to have
escaped to some extent. In South Dakota
the storm has extended over the entire
State, Aberdeen, Huron, Pierre and other
points reporting very severe blizzard.
The ST. Paul (Minn.) Pioneer Press CORE
spondent at Pierre says the worst blizzard
since 1888 occurred there. The thermometer
went as low as twenty degrees below zero.
The Huron correspondent Of the Pioneer
Press says the snow storm developed into a
gigantic blizzard almost equal in fury to
that of January, 1883. 1t raj ed all day, the
wind blowing at a velocity of from thirty
five to forty miles an hour, driving the snow
in binding clouds and drifting it as high as
the fence tops
Starvation in the Leeward Islands.
Sir W. F. Haynes Smith, the Governor Of
the Leeward Islands, has forwarded to the
British Government report that q serious
canine exists in Anguilla, one of the little
islands constituting the colony of st. Kits
Anguilla. This island has an Industrious
black population Of about $500 people. The
natives have no industries such as sugar
or cocoa raising, and depend entirely upon
provision crops. Their last crop has utterly
failed, owing to long continued drought, and
they have been on the verge of starvation
The Government Of the Leeward Island has
been compelled to give food to at least $500
Of them to keep them from death.
All the assistance thus far has been in thu
shape of food. Four months more will
slapse before any other provisions be
raised. The Government has provided the
people with seed for the next crop, and
meantime has made special provision for the
sick, aged and children upon whom the
calamity has fallen with special severity
All the children are provided with ono
substantial meal each day at the school
houses, and the aged and infirm are being
taken care of through the agency of the
poor laws The Governor says that all the
islands are doing their utmost to relieve the
distress, but that the tax upon them is very
heavy, and he appeals for help from Eng.
land.

to he vaguely conscious that he is lashing his
Imagination to put forth increased exertion. But
in Chaucer no slightest trace OF strain is to be
detected As on the lower levels the line never
labos so on the higher he never makes the impress
sion that he is trying TO make an impression. 1t
is the absolute ease with which he rises that often
prevents our perceiving how rapidly be has risen.
We have suddenly been transported into another
atmosphere without the least Consciousness on our
part of the extent of the distance traversed In
this the poet is like his own picture of Fame AT one
moment the goddess TO the visitor at the tenn
pie TO be hardly the length of cubt. In an instant
and almost before he is aware Of what has taken
place she stands before his wondering eyes, with
her feet resting upon the earth and her head
touching the heights Of the highest heaven. Nor
is il alone for the naturalness and ease whlch
results from this union of strength and simplicity
that the greatest Of his successors have delighted
TO honor the poet. Full as willingly have they
paid homage to the qualities of character displayed
in his work as TO those of intellect. In perfect
serenity of spirit, well in perfect sanity of
view; in the large-hearted toleration which could
not speak bitterly even Of the vicious; in the
gracious worldliness which never hardened into
the callousness Of insensibilty in the manly
tenderness which never degenerated into sentl-
mentality; in the repose of conscious strength
which never wearied itself or worried itself in
striving for effect-in all OF these characteristics
the royal line Of English poets has never refused
to acknowledge the supremacy Of him whom it
recognizes as it's founder"
The outward appearance Of these volumes is
worthy of the dignity of their contents. Facing
the title-page of the first volume is copy of the
portrait from the Harleian manuscript and the
work is dedicated TO Professor Francis James
Child of Harvard University.

The town is 80 dull and business 30
slack that Sheriff Polk is kept busy
quelling Spring fights. The absence
of anything to do among our citizens
has melted spirit of belligerency
which requires tho Sheriff to keep
his eyes open, in order to suppress
incip;ent riots which are liable to
break out at any moment among
those who have hitherto been con-
sidered quiet and peacable citizens.
The bill providing that all county
printing shall be done within the
county where such printing is re-
quired, or within the State, is knocked
into a cooked hat by the amendment
which provides that County Comm
missioners must award the contract
to any firm that bids 25 per cent. be-
low the home printer. With this
amendment it does not amount to
"hill of beans" to Nevada printers.
That little amendment destroys the
whole force Of the bill.
