SNAKE STORIES UNDER OATH.


-

A snake story that has no precsdent
appears In the Geld notes OF the govern
ment survey Of King county Wash. In
1854. These notes are now on record IN
the Office of the county auditor The
surveyors tnade the following entry
under date Of september 81.
''Spake valley The land Is level and
graveiiy. sipb.r straight and scatter.
ing. without lundergrowth: point about
five chains North FROM the northwest
shore of Tradition lake. Area about
twelve acres Note-Ihe ground in this
vicinity is almost entirely covered with
various species OF snakes. They wero
knotted together in heaps upon the
fallen timber aud hung dangling FROM
the lower limbs Of small trees Many
were observed devouring or disgorging
other snakes Of lesser size"
The last entry in these records was
made in lSs2, and the territorial sur
veyor general OF that time, William
McMicken, has an affidavit on the fiy
leaf that the transcript OF the tield
notes is correctly copied from the or'gi.
nal notes on Gle in my office" So the
responsibility for the story rests with
the surveyors.
No such abundance of snakes has been
noted in the township. and a copying
clerk has shown his reluctance TO give
the story crcdepce by writing in pencil
on the margin Of the entry: The sur
veyor had 'em bad"

DEATH OF A MiSER PRINCE.
Nicolai JussupoG. His Vast Wealth aud
His BeccaP3y Uaya.

Nicolai JussupoG. His Vast Wealth aud
His Beggar,y Ways.
Prince Nicolai Jussupoff, who died re-
Gently in st. Petersburg, was as eccen-
trio and miserly as any nobleman in
history. He was tho last of fine fom-
lily frep the region of the Don. His
grandfather was An intimate friend Of
Voltaire, Diderot and d'Alembert, and
by his passion for art he filed private
museum with copies Of the old masters.
Nicolai Jussupoff had greater wealth
than his grandfather and the same taste
for literature aud art, but he satisfied
them only at the expense of others, and
in his wanderings through Europe he
confined his visits to art galleries and
curio museums to the free or half-price
davs.
The princes attire w-ns always poor,
even to the extreme of rcggedness. One
day ut Baden-Baden tho Empress Au-
gusta met in the park bent old man
in tattered and greasy garments. She
drew five-dollar gold piece from her
pocket and reached ie under his bowed
face. The old man raised his face with
grim smile and the empress was
nbashed to find herself face to face with
Prince Jussupoff.
Despite his parsimony Prince Jussu-
poff was long master Of ceremonies at
st. Petersburg court. When visited by
the members Of the imperial family in
his splendid palace he laid before them
entertainments OF classical magnifi-
cence, but the minute the doors closed
behind them he hurried from room TO
room extinguishing the lights and adj
monishing everybody In the house that
he was on the verge of bankruptcy.
The one person whom tho eccentric
old man loved was his only child--a
frrl of remarkable beauty and mind.
For her sake st. Petersburg society al
ways treated him with indulgence. She
was expected some time ago TO marry
Alexander. of Battenberg. but the czar
dIsapproved Of the union. When she
became the countess of Susnarokon-
Els.ou European dailies spoke Of her

friends who visit New York or other big
