AN INTERESTING EVENT.
A Frsa Si-h and FatefuI Matri moniaI All
ance

A Frsa '<i-ii ana Fateful Matri imoniaI Alii-
In the Pennsylvania town Of South
Bethlehem, a few evenings ago. the
Snake Queen was welded to the Human
Knot As freaks in the dime museums,
the contracting parties have occupied
somewhat higher and more conspicuous
positions than the generality of those
about them. Witnout knowing any
thing further concerning the Queen or
the Knot, it is impossible to think of
their union and not at the same time
feel that it is the appropriate outcome of
an easy and interesting courtship. What
more natural than that as he first saw
the Queen tenderly manipulating the
entranced ophidians, he should have
said to himself that she was charming
and that as in turn she saw him in his
interesting act she should have ex-
claimed: ''He's knotty, but he's nicer
Thus he became her beau-knot, and from
that time there was tied in her affairs
which naturally led to a splice
The married life of the Snake Qaeen
and the Human Knot should be mutual
ly helpful in an unusual degree. She
is peculiarly fitted to be hclpmate to
him. If, inspired by the plaudits of the
throng to attempt unusual feats. he
should become tangled, She would be
on hand to unite him with the same
gentleneSs with which she disengages
the snakes that have knotted themselves
about her fair person. Fate forbid, but
if ever he should be stricken with the
Kelley disease in its reptilian stage, he
would not have to send out of the house
for a snake charmer. If, on the other
hand. she should fancy herself tired of
him and start to run away. he could
tie himself in a stopper knot. and if this
should fail to have the desired effect he
could indicate his feelings with unique
emphasis by assuming the form of the
well-known and useless s. fools knot.
But it is unnecessary to contemplate
such dark pictures. Dou uOtless this
lnion will prove to be no half-hitch
but genuine long-splice. as every we'll
considered marriage should be.
1t is understood that the Human Knot
and the Snake Queen will continue To
De seen on the museum stage. Their
,pecialties. and especially his special
les, are too profitable to BE- abandoned

invented an improved thermometer reg
lister about two months since. which re-
cords the movement of wind for seven
days instead of IL day, as is done by

The new register requires the attention
of the observer only once u week i'm
stead of every day, as with the old one.
This register is especially adapted to
stations at high attitudes. on mountains
or monuments. to show the velocity of
the upper currents. Mr.. Scott sent IL
