later years we are constrained TO con

divine love, which saw the end from the
beginning, bore with tender compass
sion to look upon our struggles, our
weeping, or disheartened signs. All,
infinitely greater it is, but like to the

so deep and true that we endure to treat

behold their tears, knowing surely that

A Live Snake In a woman's Arm.

There lives, or did quite recently, near
Columbia, s. G., a woman afflicted in a
manner that makes ones flesh creep to
think of it. For more than the third Of
century she has carried live snake
under the skin of one of her arms. How
the reptile first found Judgment in its
queer situation is as much Of puzzle to
the old lady as it is to the hundreds who
have visited her for the purpose of view
ing the long welt where the unwelcome
creature lies encysted.
When the lady first noticed the bow
shaped ridge on her arm it was of about
the diameter of pin, and less than two
inches in length. During the many
years that it has safely nestled in her
flesh it has grown from mere thread to
a snake foot long and as large as a
lead pencil. The eyes Of the creature
are plainly visible through the skin, and
the scales can be felt by rubbing the
finger along the welt formed by its body.
Physicians pronounce it most re-
markable freak, and have endeavored,
without success, to prevail upon the old
lady to have it removed. philadelphia

I'll. Localities Of the Birds


All our permanent residents among
the birds, both large and small, are COM
paratively limited in their ranges. The
crow is nearly as local as the wood
chuck. He goes farther from home in
quest Of food. but his territory is well
defined, both winter and summer. His
place Of roosting remains the same year
after year. Once, while spending few
days at mountain lake nearly sur
rounded by deep woods, my attention
was attracted each night. just at sun
down, by an osprey that always came
from the same direction, dipped into the
lake as he passed over it for sip of its
pure water aud disappeared in the woods
beyond.
The routine of his life was probably
as marked as that of any of ours. He
fished the waters of the Delaware all
day, probably never going beyond GER
tain limit, and returned each night at
sundown, as punctual as a day laborer,
to his retreat in the forest. The sip Of
water, too, from the lake he never failed
to take.
All the facts we possess in regard to
the habits of the song birds in this re-
spect point to the conclusion that the
same individuals return to the same To-
calities year after year to nest and 70
rear their young.-John Burroughs in
Century.

cannon, belching canister, were good for
all the enemy could bring against them,
their infantry supports only counted as
man against man, and the enemy outnum-
bered them. Some In the rear and some
on the left gave way.
The Confederates of course followed up
and passed the flank of the battery. Quick
ly some companies Of infantry from other
points were hurried TO the scene of danger,
and the assailants were driven back with
cheers Of victory on their lips. However
they had carried confusion into Sanborn's
ranks and upset the idea that the fight
was to be all one way. Three Union colo
nels had been shot down while leading up
detachments to save the threatened bat
terry. Other troops that were called upon
TO rally around il found their hands full
in holding their own. So the truth dawned
upon Sanborn that the Ohioans and some
scattered infantry companies next TO the
cannon must fight ii out alone il the Con
federates tried it again They did try
again in the most desperate rush of the
day. One Confederate brigade had used
itself up in the first two charges, and
fresh brigade then entered the lists.
The Ohio boys were no longer in the
ideal situation for artillerymen. Their
guns were in place, it is true; the enemy a
good distance Off, and there were sound
men enough to load and fire. But the am
munition was running low on account of
those rapid double loads, and besides the
infantry sGpptns were busy defending
their own lines, and Of course the battery
hadn't escaped hard blows. Guuners had
been killed aud wounded; horses had been
shot, and in their agony and fright were
plunging about dragging limbers and Gals
sons hither and thither Juggling at their
harness, rearing aud Kicking as jam OF

heads in the little band Of canuoneers. and

No stronger evidence of the safety OF
electric lighting installations can be
afforded than the fact that a great many
explosives factories are now being lit by
electricity, tits obvious that in building
where the preparation of inAammah!e

on very special care should be taken in

that the electric light adds consider

The Press Club Refuses to Crafty Mike
de Young's Ambition.
An exciting meeting of the Press Club of
San Francisco was held last night, the ques-
ton at issue being the clubs recent with
drawal from the International League of
Press Clubs.
The session was continued until midnight,
almost the entire evening being devoted TO
a denunciaticn of the methods employed by
Nike DC Young to obtain the presidency OF
the league and his course as member OF
the club. The active newspaper men were
nearly unanimous in these expressions, stat
ing that they would not permit De Young
10 use the club as a tool TO crafty his polti-
cal ambition, and promising that If tile
withdrawal were reconsideIed, the question
would be brought up again and again until
the present position OF the club was finally
confirmed.
De Young was present and spent what
were probably the most uncomfortable four
hours of his life. 1t was stated by several
speakers that all the employees of his paper
who were members of the club had been
detailed to attend the meeting in their en-
poyer's interest This band was REINFORCED
by the votes OF snch active journalists as
Jeremiah Lynch, Varney Gaskll Frank
Powers. an attorney; s. NJ. ShOriridge; J.
ID. Maxwell, an Insurance agent; w. Ii.
Gagan, druggist, and others Of sim liar oc-
equations.
The De Young forces were clearly out
generated, and, after a four hours battle,
Frank j. Mofiitt of Oakland, representing
De Young, offered as compromise
measure that If the club would pass a
resolution stating that its withdrawal was
not intended as a personal affront TO the
President of the league or 10 that organiza-
ton Itself, the reconsideration Of the with
drawal would be dropped.
This proposition was accepted and the
Press Club still remains uncouneeted with
Mrs. Frank LeslIe's recent party of tourists.
and DE Young continues TO have no constit-
uency in the league.
