judicial circles as the Hemenbaum VS..
Goldenwasser case, Justice James

afternoon, judgment being entered in
favor of the plaintiff in the sum of S25

instance on record where man sued

1t should,o of course, be understood that
the action of the state convention in
iIistructing the delegateSat large does
not bind the delegates elected by the
congressional districts. In some of the
states in the above list the Harrison
strength will be confined to the dele
gates. at large and to the few district
delegates which have been instructed.
In Missouri, for instance, at least five
districts have sent uninstructed delega-
ions, and in two of these districts the
conventions absolutely refused, on a
direct vote, to instruct for the presi-
dents denomination. Five other dis
tricts have instructed, so that, of the
total of thirty-four votes in Missouri,
the president will receive about twenty.
OF the fourteen states which instructed
their delegates at large to vote for the
president ten are Democratic states in
the South, where the Republicans are
mainly confined to the Officeholders.
Conventions which did not instruct
are &C fOllOWS.

SNAKE STONES OF cEYLoN.
They VIII Cure the Bite of a Cobra, the
Most Deadly of Serpents.

Iney Will cure the mite OF q CODrby tno
Most Deadly of Serpents.
The so-called snake stones" Of Cey-
Ion are celebrated for the efficacy which
they are supposed to have in curing the
bites of venomous serpents. Secrecy is
maintained as to the method of their
manufacture, which is lucrative bust
ness carried on by monks, who supply
the merchants of India with them. Very
high prices are demanded for them.
They are employed in the familiar man
ner by being placed on the wound, their
absorbent material sucking up the
blood and incidentally the venom, as is
claimed. There is plenty of authentic
evidence of remarkable cures performed
by such snake stones. though science is
as yet reluctant to place any belief in
them.
Sir J. E. Tennent, to whose work on
casion when he was riding along jun
gle path on the island, and he saw one
or two natives who were approaching
suddenly dart off from the road and re-
turn Immediately with a cobra, the
most deadly of all serpents, grasped
by the head and tail. The man
tried to place the snake in a
covered basket, but handed it so mex
pertly that it seized him by the finger
and retained its hold for few seconds
Blood flowed and intense pain appeared
to follow. AS quickly as possible the
other native undid his own waist cloth
and took from it two snake stones, each
the size Of small almond, intensely
black and highly polished, though ex-
tremely light These he applied one to
each wound inflicted by the teeth of the
cobra They attached themselves close
ly, the blood that oozed from the bite
being rapidly inbibed by the porous
substance. After three or four minutes
they dropped off and the suffering of
the man seemed to have subsidized. He
twisted his fingers until the joints
cracked and went on his way without
concern. 1t has been ascertained with
certainty that these snake stones are
usually nothing more than pieces of
burned bone. The Mexican recipe for
making snake stone is to take frag-
ment of deers horn of any convenient
size and shape, cover it with grass in
close both in a thin piece of sheet cop
per and place the parcel in a charcoal
fire until the bone is well charred.
When cold remove the calcined horn
from its envelope, when it will be found
to be a solid black fibrous substance.
1t will then be ready for immediate use.

An Awful ILLUSTRATION OF the Miserable
Ignorance of India.
Not even Kipling can do more than
hint at the awful problems of India
writes correspondent 1t is one thing
to read of its conditions and another to
face them. wish could tell you what
the journey to Telegu from the coast
was like-my first introduction to India.
Fifty miles-and a two days journey!
II we make two miles an hour it is
counted good speed. Sand and sun;
glare above and glare beneath. Prac-
tically no vegetation; the trees look
pestilence-stricken. There never comes
a time when they seem to renew their
leaves, though sometimes we used to
think they moulted; the old rattle off,
and still there are leaves on the treas,
but they never look new. OF course
am speaking of my own part of India;
near the rank vegetation of the jungles
it is doubtless different And one day
is like another; year like another; a
thousand years like another thousand

the calfskn, that his COW may be de-
ceived and let down milk, might be his
own immemorially great grandfather,
for all the advance he has made on his
grandfather's habits of mind, or body,

about stuffing the calf? They believe
the COW will give no milk unless the
calf takes first its share; so when a calf
dies they stuff it--with weird results. l

propped up on sticks every night before
they milk her.

HIS REASON.
Why "Arry'' Wished He Had Skin Like a
Negro.

Why "Arry Wished He Had Skin Like q
Negro.
Some people contend that the white
man is born with an antipathy for the
negro and that no amount of legisla-
ton, augmentation or exhortat ton will
ever induce him to regard his colored
brother a. his social equal. l used to be
of that opinion too, but | have my
doubts about it now. This is what
caused me to doubtit.
Some few months ago the arm en-
gagged a new office boy. He was a bright
little chap, just turned fourteen and
fresh from England. AIRY" the clerks
call him. because that is the way he
first pronounced his own name when
asked what IL was. When he grows a
bit bigger and acquires better knowl-
edge of United States English he will
punch some bOdy's head for calling him
AIRY" and then he will be called
Harry. But that will make another
story when the time comes round
AIRY" at once struck up a close
friendship with the little colored en-
rand boy in the Office. The pair often
take bites out of the same apple and
otherwise manifest congeniality of
tastes and temperaments. The other
morning AIRY showed up at the office
with u dirty face.
$50 and wash yourself" said one of
the clerks to him, reprovingly; do you
want to be taken for niger boy
Array" shot an envious glance at his
colored chun- and then replied with the
utmost seriousness:
81 wish i was like i'm; then when
didn't wash my face nobody wouldn't
know tn. y. World
