tremcly sensitive of his facial misfor-
tune, but never referred to it himself
nor did any of his thousands of friends
ever ask him it's cause The trial to
which l refer was n bitterly contested
affair, and Brewster Mt every point got
SO much the best of She opposing coun-
sci that by the time arguments COM
menced his leading adversary was in a
white heat In dcnouncing the rail-
road company this lawyer, with his
voice tremulous with anger, exclaimed:
This grasping corporation Is us dark,
devious and scarified in its methods as
is the face of its chief attorney and
henchman, Benjamin Brcwsterv
This violent outburst of rage and
cruel invective was followed by a
brcathless stiffness in the crowded
courtroom that was painful Hun
dreds of plying eyes were riveted on
the poor, Scared face of Brewster, ex-
pecting to sec him spring from his
chair and catch his heartlcss adversary
by the throat Never before had any
one referred to Mr.. Brewster's mis-
fortune in such q way, or even in any
terms, in his presence Instead Of
springing at the man and killing him
like dog, as the audience thought was
his desert, Mr.. Brewster slowly arose
and spoke something like this to the
! court: Your honor, in oil my career
as lawyer have never dealt in per
sonahties; nor did ever before feel
called upon to explain the cause of my
physical misfortune. but will do so
now. When q boy-and my mother,

The exposition is deriving quite q
revenue from the visitors whose curios-
ity prompts them to see the grounds and
the wonderful buildings now approach
ing completion. An admission of o5
cents is charged, and on single DAYS the
number of visitors has exceeded $4,000.
With warmer and more pleasant wealth
err it is believed the visitors will be much
more numerous. Without exception all
are enthusiastic in their admiration and
wonder at the magnificent spectacle.
The magnitude of the French exhibit
Mt the exposition can be surmised from
the fact that in the calculations as to
its transportation to Chicago it is esti-
mated that it will aggregate fully 5000
tons. The exhibit, it is unnecessary to
explain. will consist chiefly of works of
art and manufactures Of the finer and
lighter description, nnd will include
very little in the way of heavy articles.

ABOUT EIGHT FEET OF SNAKE.

and throwing himself about in his mad
agony the huge snake had possession of
the place. Walls, floor and everything
else were covered with his blood and
the odor was simply horrible Just rs
/ looked out he had got himself coiled
around stout oak chair, and with a
tightening OF the coils the chair was
splintercd. incautiously opened the
door little too far. and he hurled him
self at me. had barely time to pull
the door shut when he struck it. And
then got Jack to hold the light while
l watched the snakes motions, took
careful aim and fred.
THAT shot finished him. He strur,
gled and wriggled blindly all over the
room for n minute or two, but finally
Strengthened himself and lay still. And
then Jack and l crawled out of that
closet moro dead than alive, ard Jack
lit fresh candle and asked me if his
hair wasn't gray. And then, there was
the sequel; for the old herb gathcrcr
never was seen again. When we found
that he had really disappeared, Jack
and looked ut one another and cold
chills ran over us, for we felt as conf
dent then as do now that the huge
snake on some previous visit had killed
and dcvourcd the helpless old man, and
was merely looking for another meal
when he dropped himself down from
that hole in the roof. No, we did no..
look for any more game on that trip.

dark was enough for one time"-N. o.
