Looking for Ratt1ers.


THE King Snake Story is the head
ing under which an Alabama coutempo-
rary prints the following: ..We have been
informed that about one month ago. in
Morgan county, while man and his
wife were sitting out on the veranda
late in the afternoon, their attention
was attracted by the appearance of a
large king snake on the steps few feet
away. They We're perfectly quiet, and
the snake crawled up the steps until it
reached the top; then it held its head
up, as much as to say, Can come in%
They remained perfectly still, and the
snake took it for granted that the silence
gave consent. SO it proceeded to enter
the hall and crawled leisurely along
until it reached a bedroom where the
door stood open. 1t entered the door.
making its way under the bed.
Here the king snake .pounced on a
large rattlesnake that had coiled itself
around the bed springs. After deadly
struggle with this monster rattler the
king snake went out in the yard and got
some kind of weed to kill the poisonous
bites. After taking the medicine the
king snake returned to the house and
continued the battle until the rattlesnake
was dead. 1t was five feet in length and
had nine rattles.''''

A SNAKE stole tl,. Errs.

Mr. II. Q. Fitzgerald, who resides five
miles southwest of Holden, tells rs a
good one on AN egg stealing blacksnake
that has been operating around. his
chicken house. Mr.. Fitzgerald furnished
one of his hen nests with finely polished
nest egg, which is neither q novel nor
uncommon thing for chicken raisers to
do. On the second day the nest egg dis
appeared, and its whereabouts were not
discovered until last Sunday. On that
day the son of Mr.. Fitzgerald killed a
large blacksnake, which he discovered to
be unusually large where a snakes
stomach is supposed to be. The inqusi-
tiveness of young Fitzgerald led him to
hold an autopsy on the body of his snake
ship, and 10, the long lost egg was found
to be the cause of the unnatural enlarge
ment. The nest egg had remained in
the voracious NAV of the snake for six
weeks. Holden (Mo.) Herald.

A Great Lacnner Artist.


Artistic Japan has suffered another
great loss in the death of Mr.. Shibata
juno, commonly known as Zeshin, who
expired on the 18th of July, at the ripe
age of eighty-five. A greater worker in
lacquer probably never lived than this
remarkable artist. Everything that
came from his hands was of the most
beautiful and refined character, and re-
peatedly during the last ten years he
gave practical demonstrations of the
fact that the capacity of modern Japan
ese artisans to produce lacquer of the
highest quality is in no respect inferior
to the capacity of the great masters of
former times.
Zeshin was among the ten artists
chosen last year to receive the special
protection of the imperial household,
and he had obtained more than a dozen
gold, silver and copper medals for work
shown by him at various exhibitions.
He was finished expert in every process
OF lacquer manufacture, and his decora-
tive skill, exercised chiefly after the
fashion of the Shijo school, perpetuaIly
furnished novel and exquisite examples.

Opening of the Dulse season.

What no, ye epicures of Irish birthl
Listen to the gladsome tidings that the
first crop of dulse for the season of 1912
has arrived and is awaiting your eager
purchase. Fresh from the rocks of Ban
doren and all along the Galway and
Sligo coast it comes.
The dulse, or dillisk as the real Hi
belnians call it, is unusually plentiful
and of extra fine flavor this fall, and
when stewed with plenty of milk and
butter it will make dish fit for king.
A quart of it looks like choice assort-
ment of faded morocco leather scraps
but it is like the proverbial singed cat.
and no one who knows its taste minds
its looks. The stew or broth it makes is
a general tonic for the system, and espe-
cialiy good for dyspepsia; but men from
the 'fould sod" say further that it en-
iarges the heart, enriches the brogue and
enlivens the feet of all who partake of it.

a ceseation of Vitality.

A little son Of Janitor Parry, of Mears
hall, Scranton, was put to bed shortly
after 10 o'clock on Thursday night ap-
parently in good health Some time
later the father went into the room and
found the child stretched out stiff and
cold as if dead. He was almost frantic
with grief at the supposed loss of his
child, and his lamentations were painful
to hear. The mother hurried to the bed
side of her boy and clasped him to her
breast. The little fellow opened his
eyes and resumed his breathing, while
the mother was tenderly kissing hts
ashen lips OF sudden the color came
back to his cheeks, his limbs relaxed
their rigidity and in few minutes he
was as lively as ever before.
The cause of this sudden cessation of
life, as it seemed, is attributed to stag
nation of the blood. The fond mothers
caresses sent the life current again
coursing through the child's veins, start
ed the pulsations of the heart and
brought the virtually dead child back
to life. Mr.. and Mrs. Parry We're over
Joyed beyond measure when they became
aware of the fact that their beloved
child whom they had thought dead was
only affected with temporary cessation
OF yitallty.-Scranton Republican.

A Modern samse,.

John Whitman, the man who lifts 600
pounds, pushed freight car weighing
10000 pounds along switch on North
street, near Madison, in the presence of
about 300 people. He got between the
car he was to push and another. the
brakes of which were down. Seating
himself upon the second car, he placed
his feet against the forward car, and,
after taking Il deep breath. gave it one
mighty push with them The car
quivered and then went forward several
feet. He did this several times. but
owing to the car being on grade he
could not move it very far A car
weighing 23,600 pounds he moved with
ease. Mr.. Dunn, the yardmaster, said
the cars moved would take the efforts of
at least eight ordinary men.
In the afternoon Whitman gave an ex-
hibition of his strength at the gym
nasium at the central police station. He
handled a hundred pound dumbben as
II 1t weighed five-pounds. Captain Far
nan and one of his officer then got on
Whitmans back, who stopped over, and
with his teeth picked up two dumbbells
tied together, weighing 100 pounds, and
al the same time lifted a hundred pound
bell in each hand. The bells and men
ON his back in all weighed 600 pounds.
Whitman also lifted 200 pounds by his
teeth. Laying out fat on the floor, he
strapped fifty pound bell to his foot,
and then raised it up slowly, stopping at
intervals One of the most remarkable
feats he did was to tie twenty pound
bell on the end of strap, the other end
of which he held in his teeth He then
swung the bell around, and when he got
it high in air he jerked it back with his
teeth. Whitman, the wonder, was at one
time on the New York police force

one of Perrx,s vessels.


An important relic of the war of 1912
has just been unearthed at Ferrysburg.
1t is the lower portion of the hull of the
sloop Porcupine, one of the nine small
vessels built by Commodore Perry on
Lake Erie, and with which he achieved
his great victory over the British SQUAD
ron, known in American history as
Perry's victory, Perry's nine vessels con-
sisting of the Lawrence, his flagship, of
twenty guns; the Niagara, twenty guns
the Caledonia, three guns; schooner
Ariel, four; the Scorpion, two; the Som
mers, of two guns and two swivels; the
sloops Trip, Iigress and Porcupine, one
gun each.
The Porcupine was taken to Detroit.
where, in 1880, her upper works were re-
built and her name changed to Caroline.
Eventually she was brought to Grand
Haven and sailed by Captain Harry Mil
Ter. In the early fifties she was set
adrlft in Grand river near the mouth.
The current carried her out into Lake
Michigan, but a west wind blew her
back IN day or two, and she was after
ward refitted and sailed a season or two.
Finally, about the year 1855, she was al
lowed to sink, head on, at Ferrysburg.
Her remains will be taken from the
water and properly cared for.-Grand

A startling and most remarkable phe-
nomenon occurred in Brookfield, Fair
field county, ON Sunday night, Aug. 80,
which will be remembered to life's end
by those who heard it, About the time
for the evening service, and when the
congregations of the churches were
awaiting the beginning of worship, it
began to thunder and lightning in the
distance, and the shower appeared to
be rapidly approaching until it was di-
rectly overhead
Suddenly there was burst of musical
thunder, sounding somewhat like a gong
in different tones. and SO marked were
the musical notes as to be sweet and al
most bugle like. AS quick as flash all
the eyesof the congregation in the church
We're directed to the ceiling, and the
suppressed cry of Whats that.'' could
be heard all over the church. .sIt,s

more frightened than others.-Danbury

Generous "Drummers... >.

The Commercial Travellers association
of New England has determined to erect
monument for itself. This association
is composed of 1900 of the smartest and
most wide awake men of the land. They
are as rule men of intelligence and
good standing, or they could not retain
the positions which they hold and COM
mand the high salaries which they re-
ceive. Tne association has decided to
erect al industrial and educational
building at Good Will Homes and dedi-
cate it to the work of saving boys. This
is, as all will admit, most praiseworthy
enterprise and one that will commend
itselt to all classes
Pie homes now shelter nearly fiftv
boz 8, who need workroom and a
schoolroom badly. Many of the lads
th ere have mechanical tastes which
should receive encouragement and train
ing. The farm work is not adapted to
al, but with the new building and tools
and machinery which will be added to
1T the homes will have taken a long
stride toward the successful accomplish
ment of its aim.-Fairfield (Me.) Enter

Deaf Mute. Made to H.ar.

, In every age prolonged struggles have
been made against deafness; there have
been special physicians, special instru-
ments and special remedies for the ear.
The acoustic cornet of DIR. Larrey, in
tended to be concealed in the hair; the
acoustic bell of DIR. Itard, acoustic tubes,
dilating tubes, artificial ears of metal,
silk and gutta percha, audiphones, auri-
cular microphones, conches, artificial
tympanums, even acoustic fans for the
use of ladies, have had at divers times
reputation more or less deserved. FL
nally, the announcement was made a
few days ago that q new acoustic horn
had been found which not only enabled
the deaf to hear, but which diminished
and even conquered deafness
The apparatus is composed of large
bell of enameled metal, united by a
gutta percha tube, about fifty Genuine
ters in length, to little bone tube COW
cred with gutta percha, which extends
somewhat beyond it. The tube is COW
cred outside by a light stuff intended to
arrest all foreign vibrations The little
tube penetrates into the auditory pas
sage and touches the tympanum
Thanks to this, not a sound, not breath
is lost on the patient, and no matter how
little hearing remains to the subject he
percelves sounds and noises; that is to
say, vowels and consonants, and finally
he even hears words. The sounds are
clear, without buzzing, without reso-
nance and with a remarkable intensity.
