What 1,ar Room Decoration. Goat.


Little more than twenty years ago
one hundred or one hundred and
twenty-five dollars was considered
an eXtravagant amount to pay for dec
orations for Il ball in London. In 1871
the great Juror for elaborate floral dec
Grafton began, and was instigatcd by
the late Sir Edward Scott, who gave up
his house for three days to his florist,
with carte blanche orders to charge
what he liked, the only stipulation be-
ing that the handsomcst decorations of
the season must be produced Every
body initiated this extravaganza, one of
the most elaborate examples being the
"Hanging Gardens of Babylon" on the
occasion of u ball given by the marquis
of Bristol, when six tons of cut ivy
were used alone, to give Il castellated
effect to the bare walls of an improviscd
ball room. a few days aftcrward Ger
cid Leigh gave magnificent entertain
ment, the flowers of which cost twenty
five hundred dollars. Shortly afterward
Mrs. (now Lady, Sutton gave another
entertainment, for which over fifteen
thousand dollars was paid to one firm
alone. July 81, 1878, the first large
public entertainment was given in the
conservatory of the Royal Horticultural
society in connection with ball given
in honor of III. r. IL. the prince of
Wales, and ice was for the first time
used in large quantities for cooling tho

Donald Burns, an animal trainer who
spent MANY years in the employ of p.
L. Barnum, received communion
ton from the worlds fair commits
sioncrs in relation to Il den of snakes for
the exposition. Mr.. Burns has had con-
siderable correspondence with the com
missioners over his proposed exhibit of
from two to II dozen or more reptiles of
every form that inhabit all known re-
gions of the earth. He was informed
that suitable arrangements would
be made for his great collection of
snakes and he would be given all posi-

to make this great den of snakes, which
will be placed in the Natural His
tory building, ono of the most startling
realistic exhibitions ever known. AL
ready he has more than fifty different
species in readiness for the fair, and
his agents are at work all over the
world in collecting scrpcnts in their
great variety of forms.
Yes" said Mr.. Burns, when I saw
him Mt No. ia Roosevelt street.
ii have undertaken the by no
means easy task of supplying every
known species of snake to the worlds
fair. 1t will be the greatest collection
ever known, and twill DO made one of
the most remarkable exhibitions of rep
tiles ever witnessed. My idea is not
alone to have the great den of serpents
in full view, but also to permit those
who desire it to view the snakes at
meal time. The multitude of I'M
believers as to the power scrpents pos
sess of swallowing n prey the diameter
of whose body exceeds many fold that
of their own will, if they desire it, be
enabled to witness it."
But us all snakes do not agree, will
it be advisable to have them all to-
gethcr?"
We'll, have not as yet fully perfect
ed the arrangements appcrtaining to
the display of the reptiles in the Nat
ural History building. The idea that
strikes me as most likely to be adopted
is to have great Enclosure of very
heavy glass in the center of the build
ing. There would be miniature lake
and swamp trees, rocks and dry surface
for the reptiles. Now, of course, we

where it is frequently COMPOUNDED with
the chicken snake. which it very much
resembles, though it's body lis much
Simmer, would have to be put in n sep.

from the implacable hostility it mani
tests to all other reptiles. Nor are it's at
tacks confined to the non-venomous, for
| once saw king snake pursue and
Kill n rattlesnalkc. 1t feeds on rats,
mice, frogs and birds. Some say that
it swallows the snakes that it kills.
My idea is to let the public witness the
reptiles at meal time especially. They
can learn moro in few minutes by
practical observation than they could
by reading whole roomful of books
on reptiles. Another species of snake
which now have, and which will not
be placed with the happy family in the
main den of reptiles at the fair, is the
experimenting hamadryas.
MIR. Burns exhibited this species of
snake, which is closely allied to the
cobra, being almost as deadly He has
just secured pair of them for the fair.
1t is an olive hue on the back and dull
orange below. The female is a dirty.

THE hamadryas," continued Mr..
Burns, sis very difficult snake TO Sc
cure. 1t is peculiar in that it's sole food
seems to be reptiles, of which lizards
and snakes, whether venomous or
otherwise, constitute the principal part.
1t is Industrious and courageous in pur-
suit of its prey. 1t erects its head very
high, and with n dreadful kissing cx-
pands the hood, following every motion
OF its prey. At favorable moment it
launches upon and at the same time
gives its victim q bite which produces
almost instant death from poisoning.
The swallowing next follows, after
which the reptile is in state of coma
for dozen or more hours. 1t does not
make another meal for ten or twelve
days. Its bite is said to be as fatal MS
the cobra, being sufficient to produce
death in an elephant within two hours
after biting. Like the cobra it is
oviparous. and has for it's enemies GER
tain birds that destroy the eggs, and

BEAUTIFUL SHRUBBERY. - The
salubrio GUS spring weather is setting
many of Salem's enterprising home
makers to work with shovel and
rake. Our city has many beautiful
lawns and flower gardens, aside
from several good public parks,
which are gradually being cleaned
up and put into order. Last year
the state house end of Wilson ave-
nue. was plated and put into good
shape. Already it is beginning 20
bud and bloom, and will soon be an
attractive place for pedestrians, and
a place which we will point out TO
visiting friends with pride. AS the
spring work of bea1tifying begins,
the first question to arise is, where
can we get such shrubs and plants
as we want? A friend suggests that
inasmuch as the stock in the state
house grounds came from an old
reliable nursery near at hand, a good
way il to step in there and select
what pleases ones taste. All the
shrubs still bear the original labels.
and can thus be ordered by name
from the Portland Seed company, at
Portland, who are the SUCCESSORS TO
the original Miller nursery. What
is better still, send for one Of their
catalogues. DIV
