GROVER ON SILVER.
State Treasurer Stephens of 1is-
sour, Calls on Grover
Cleveland
To get a More Thorough Express
sion of His Views on the
Silver Question
He Says the Republicans Want
to Make the Silver Question a
Leading Issue in 1892.
The Governor Explains Further.

gram prints the following: State
Treasurer Stephens, Of Missouri, called
on ex- President Grover Cleveland to-
day, with letters OF introduction from
Gov, Francis and other leading Miss
ouri democrats. The object Of the
visit was TO secure from ex President
Cleveland q more thorough expression
of bis views on the silver question
than the latter has yet made to the
public; also for his reason for having
written his silver letter to the Re-
form club. The ex-president received
Stephens very cordially. The treasurer
explained that the Missouri democrats
were now opposed to Cleveland's nom.
ination on account of his silver letter
and asked him why be wrote that let
ter. "I was we'll aware" said the ex-
president, "that ths republican party
is very deslrous Of making the silver
question one Of the leading tissues Of
the campaign Of 1892, and the question
should be taken up at once. IL should
be thoroughly discussed, 90 hat the
people can be educated up to IL. In
this way. it may be settled before 1892,
and we will BE-

To Bridge the BosphOrus.

There need be no more Leander-like
or Byronic swimming across the Bos-
phorus if the project contemplated bya
French engineering company be taken
up seriously and carried to completion.
This plan comprises nothing less than
the construction of colossal bridge
800 meters, or 872 yards, long, over
the historic and picturesque channel
that flows between the shores OF Eu-
rope and Asia. connecting the Sea of
Marmora with the Euxiue. The project
has been talked of any time these
twenty years, but it was not considered
that the bridge would be useful enough
to justify the enormous expense which
it would entail. The points already
designated for the construction were
Roumeli-Hissar and Anatoli-Hissar, and
it is considered that if now constructed
it would act as link in the local rail-
way system, eventually paying for it
self in a satisfactory manner. The
French engineers who are thinking Of
undertaking the construction of the
bridge would make it with one arch
only.-Londoe Telegraph.

The writer, says the Boston Journal,

who with the exception of Rufus

best man to sit and listen to he has
ever been acquainted with, was sub

talk to them, or he would not, and he
could scarcely look in the face of one
of them without blushing. He could
not look them fairly in the eyes, in
fact, nor could he men, either, for that
matter. There seemed to be an unac
countable timidity and shrinking about
him as there was even about Choate
himself, great man as he was.
And the writer would remark in
passing that he remembered, as to the
latter, that one evening at one Of the
large hotels in Boston there was a re-
union, for some purpose OF the grad

THE JEWEL OE THE INDIAN COBRA
Explanation of a Wonder That Has Long
Puzzled the Naturalist.

The natives of the jungle say some
cobras carry precious stones abou'
with them, and at night coil in the
grass to watch them glitter. Prof
Uensoldt, the Indian traveller, says
'One night native called me to sec
this WONDER Close to the water;
edge stood an immense tamarind tree
and within fifty yards of it the cooly
halted and mystelousy pointed to the
root of the tree. A foot from the trunk
light, apparently proceeding from 9
single point. After a time l could see
the cobra coiled near the foot of the
tree, slowly swaying its head to and
fro in front of the shining object.
Unfortunately l had no gun, and
my guide who seemed to feel that he
was responsible for my safety, entreat-
ed me so earnestly to let the snake
alone that | acceded. Moreover he
promised to bring me this stone within
three days. The cody kept his word,
for the second morning afterward he
brought the stone. He had climbed
the tamarind tree before dark, and
after the snake had taken up his posi-
ton he had emptied bag of ashes up.
on the stone. The frightened reptile,
after chasing about for IA while trying
to find its treasure, had gone off. The
cody remained in his safe position un.
til daylight when he descended the
tree, dug the stone out of the ashes,
and here it was in my hand.
The cobra stone was Il semi-trans-
parent water-worn pebble of yellowsh
color, about the size of a large pea
which in the dark, when previously
warmed. emitted a greenish, phospho-
resent light. found it to be chloro-
phane. a rara variety of fiuorspar.
The mystery is not difficult to ex-
plain. 'Cobras feed on insects and
seem to have an especial liking for
firehies. Only the male fretiies fly
about, and Il close observer will notice
that a constant swarm of the male in
sects will fly near tire females, which
sit on the ground and emit an intermit-
tent glowing light. The cobra uses his
phosphorescent stone as Il decoy foI
tie fretles. Competition would lead
to the snakes seizing and carrying off
the treasure. and habit has become
hereditary. ."-Hurper''S Magdzine.

How Timothy Grass Was Named.

Timothy or herd grass is the most
common grass of continental Europe.
growing wild throughout ali that vast
region between the Mediterranean sea
on the south and the North in the di.
rection the name implies. 1t is not
known exactly when it was first intro
duced into the United States, but this
much is known: it takes its name from
Timothy Hanson, Il farmer of Mary
land, who brought it into general no.
tice as a hay grass after he had cultiva-
ted it extensively for his own use for
years. The botanical name for the
grass is phleum pratense. 1t is a Gu
rious fact that although its native home
is Europe, the United States is the first
country in which it was grown. cut,
and cured for hay. No longer ago
than 1885 some timothy heads and seed
were taken to England and exhibited
as curiosities.
