BATTLED WITH a RATTLEsNAKE.
An Alabama Negro Has a Terrific Expert
ence With a Reptile.


ence With Reptile.
Thomas jenkins, living at Opelika, Ala,
a hard-working negro who is fond of
hunting, and who owns small farm near
town, had yesterday a terrible adventure
with large rattlesnake, which he succeeded
in killing only after it had bitten him twice.
jenkins was at work removing the debris of
an outbuilding, when the snake sounded its
rattle almost under his feet He sprang back
just in time to escape the dart of the reptile,
and struck at it with the small hand-ax he
carried, but was so unfortunate as to miss it
entirely, when the snake with incredible
rapidity coiled itself about his leg. He en-
deavored to throw it off, when it buried its
faEgs in the feshy part of the limb. Before
it could withdraw them he seized it back of
the head and choked it, as he thought, to
death, for its folds relaxed and he was able
to fling it from him; but, upon reaching the
ground, the reptile revived and turned again
to the attack
jenkins again endeavored to kill it by
stroke of his ak, but only succeeded in
severing the extreme tip of the tail, and the
next instant the writhing creature had
struck him on the ankle, when he brought
the blake down upon it, cutting it entirely
in two Calling his wife to assist him, Jen-
kins managed to reach a physician living
near him, and whose immediate attention to
his two wounds probably saved his life.
The limb is much swollen and of livid
blue, but no danger is anticipated. The
wounds were in both instances deprived of
their full deadliness by Jenkins heavy
trousers and stockings, which absorbed much
of the poison, and thus prevented its en-
trance into the body.

TANNING THE CORAL.
The Little PoIyps Get So They Work in
Presence of Their Master.

The coral animal can be tanned says
George L. Bancroft in the st. Louis Globe
Democrat. 1 believe am the first person in
the world who ever accomplished the re-
suit Here is piece 1 found on a Florida
reef was anxious to learn how fast the
coral grows, so placed it in water where L
could visit it every week and note the
change. When L first visited the specimen
the polyps would dart into their cells
After several visits they became so bold as
to remain outside, and finally our acquaint-
ance ripened until they would do their
work while I remained a watcher.
I have stood by the hour watching the
little fellows at work. They taught me
that the claims of scientific men, that the
coral does not grow more than one inch in
100 years is the sheerest nonsense. My pets
builded an inch in six months. How do
they work? Well, that is rather a difficult
question to answer. The little animal is a
sack; that is, his stomach is the biggest part
Of him. He is compound animal, and in
creases by termination, young polyps
springing from the original polyp. The
upper surface is arrayed with tentacles, and
the body is separated by number of par
titions that extend from the stomach to the
outer skin. Between these walls the car
Donate of lime is deposited.

whispers and buzzing of subdued voices
were suddenly hushed for half minute,
then away to the unused boards again to try
to fathom his intentions. sBeattie can never
draw after that" whispered one. "Oh, he's
desperate. He's lost He's lost!' exclaimed
another his breath
Gardner and Freeman, at the secretary's
tables, quickly OWNED the subtle trap, and
hastened back to the players, awaiting
Christie's reply. He was studying with all
his might, fully conscious of the importance
of proceeding safely. With snail-1ike pace
the fingers of the watch kept slowly on: all
waiting with breathless anxiety, while Brad
duties, so absorbed was he in the problem.
At last "time" was called. Christie moved
7-l0, and Beatties anxious features relaxed,
for he knew that all hope for the champion
ship was gone.

would have sprung the following beautiful

Pittsburg dispatch. [volume] (Pittsburg [Pa.]) 1880-1923, 1891-05-23

stated A review of the various laws now
in force in this nation and in the several
States, would reveal the fact that there is
scarcely right or interest, public or pri-
vate, which is not enjoying statutory pro-
lection, and yet, notwithstanding the exist
ence of this indisputable fact, there never
has been time in the history of this coun-
try when the demand for the enactment of
additional laws has been so great as now.
This suggests the consideration of another
element in the case of which we are treat
ing, which may be presented by the ques-
tions ''Have we not reached a point where
the constitutional Limitation in respect of
the promotion of the general welfare should
be applied as check to the present ten
deney toward over legislation? Can we
promote the general welfare by engaging in
a practice which tends to confuse the cit
izen's sense of duty in the matter of enforce
ment of existing laws by both the public Of
ticer and HIMSELF"
Each Part of the Whole.
We have vast population; but its great
aggregation does not eliminate the individ-
ual nor abolish his rights and privileges.
Each is a part of the whole, and as such
must be taken into the account when we
come to act for the promotion of the general
welfare. Hence the jealous care we should
exercise in excluding from our legislative
action every element which tends to check
the enforcement of law, and to encourage
demands for additional enactments concern
ing subjects already provided for. This is
field which true conservatism should
dominate, and every citizen should actively
aid in its administration.
1t is most interesting field for the young
men of the country to explore. Upon them
is rapidly settling down the responsibilities
of caring for the public and private affairs
and interests which abide in the possibili-
ties of the on-coming years Of this Republic.
If the tendency of the present times toward
over-legislation shall receive their encour-
agement and support, how impotent will
our public forces soon become in the matter
of promoting the general welfare. If outcry
for additional legislation touching subjects
already provided for by law is to dominate
legislation, exclude the practice Of the rule
of Self-help, and diminish the American re-
spect for the enforcement of the laws and
the promotion of the general welfare, then
indeed may we look for unwelcome expert
ences in the future.
But my faith in the sturdy practicability
of the American character is firm enough to
believe that before we shall have gone be-
yond the danger line at which we have now
arrived halt will be called, and the present
tendencies herein suggested will take their
departure and give place to those better
conditions which will bring peace, content
ment and prosperity But come what may,
the subject is one which all, and especially
the young men of our Republic, may take
into the most conservative consideration?

CHECKER GOSSIP.

London Championship-Mr. j. G. Lewis
has challenged +. Tescheleit for the London
championship. NextI
The Derry Ne1cs, commenting on the posi-
tion of THE DISPATCH in the worlds cham
pionshtp dispute, publishing our article of
May 2 verbatim, has the following: The
above echoes the sentiments of all square
minded checkerists, and if Barker and Reed
play for the championship of the world,
they will play for something that neither
possesses, and what neither can possess
until they come honestly by it. We are sur
prised at Barker adding the title to his chal-
1enge. which is superfuous, better challege
Wyllie.
If Charles Francis should defeat Reed, he
will use the title of worlds champion to his
name on every occasion, as he used the title
of champion checker player of Great Britain
after his victory over ex-Champion Martins,
but it only made him laughing stock, and
subject of ridicule, and he eventually
dropped using what he never possessed 1t
will be so every time that they use the
higher title. Players will never give them
that honor until they earn it; even if a few
checker editors publish it for them, who do
not believe in their claims themselves, but,
being caterers, and the recipients of their
favors, their hands are tied.

STYLE IN LETTER WRITING.
A Return to Common Sense in the Matter
and Manner of Correspondence.

A Return to Common Sense In the Matter
and Manner of Correspondence.
With the wheel of common sense turning
slowly and surely to revolutionize the world
and its fashions, comes the latest sensible
decree on the rules of letter writing The
paper, though, scented daintily, is plain,
rich and white. The number of the house
is in gold at the head of the sheet, and the
style of writing is now decreed to be round,
plain and distinct (the angular vanishing
from popularity. The written words should
be in good old-faahioned style, written on
the first page and continuing on the second,
third, ETC., instead of dashing wildly from
one page to the farther one, then back again
only to recross to the fonrth. Now one can
begin in peace at the beginning and read
comfortably page after page and not jump
mentally, as it were, from the Rockies to
the Alleghanies.
After the letter is fully penned there is
the Cordially yours" of social cores
pondence, and the Faithfully yours" of
the professional (for only by the profession
al must the latter term be used). Initials
are not allowable for the signature, the
name must be written in full
After the letter is completed and inserted
in an envelope, it must be sealed with a gen.
uine drop Of wax Scorched wax is abom-
Unable, but it is difficult not to scorch it.
Mixed wax of dark green, blue or gold will
be less likely to show the burning, therefore
it is better to use these colors
On the outside of the envelope, if the per-
son addressed be not the owner of title, it
is necessary to add Esquire after the name.
sAlpha," who is up in politics and fashion,
declares that "Mr. THE modest ''Mr. lis
now entirely out of style. Esquire it must
be as of old. Then city or town for local
letter is erroneous. Pittsburg or Allegheny
must be put fully and squarely, and no
chez ellie or sen vflle,' any more than town
or city.
