While the schooner Madeline Down
ing, on its way from Buffalo to this
city, was passing the Dunning, about
100 miles east of here in Lake Erie, Cap
tain Patrick Woods saw about half a
mile ahead the waters of the lake dashed
into foam.
Drawing near, to the surprise of the
captain and all ON board, huge sea SER
pent wrestling about in the waters as if
fighting with an unseen enemy was seen.
1t soon quieted down and lay at full
length on the surface of the water.
Captain Woods estimates it to be
about fifty feet in length and not less
than four feet in circumference of body.
Its head was projecting from the water
about four feet. He says it was a ter
rible looking object. 1t had viciously
sparkling eyes and large head. Fins
We're plainly seen seemingly sufficiently
large to assist the snake in propelling it
self through the water. The body was
dark brown in color, which was uniform
all along. From what he says it would
be capable Of crushing yawl boat and
its occupants.
AS the vessel passed on its course the
snake was seen disporting itself on the
lake. AT the time he saw it the lake
was calm and there could have been no
mistake in recognizing the object.-Cin-

sermons as an Investment.

What is the most paying form of lit
erature? Under certain circumstances,
apparently, sermons. The sermon which
Canon Fleming recently preached at
Sandringham has already realized a
profit of e1, 300. Considering the COM
! nrative brevity of such contribution
to literature, this must almost be tree
ord in publishing profits. Thirteen
hundred pounds is no very excessive
sum for three volume novel, but for a
pamphlet not much larger than lead
ing article in newspaper it is unique
price.
But, then, the circumstances were
unique. The sermon was preached by
command of the Princess of Wales, and
it had special reference to the prema-
ture death Of the heir presumptive to the
crown. One is glad to know that the
excellent Gordon Boys home has
profited by the large sum realized by the
sale which Canon Fleming has gener-
ously placed at its disposal. James

An Adventure with Black Snakes.

John b. Snyder, of Barto, Berks
county, the skillful matchmaker, was
out after wild raspberries the other day
on the premises of his brother, Jacob
Snyder, above Forgedale, when he met
with quite an adventure. He was busy
among some briers and brambles, when
big black snake suddenly reared up
near him and came at him full tilt.
The only weapon Snyder had was his
berry kettle, which he swung at the
head of the serpent, knocking it over,
then jumped upon and dispatched the
enemy.
Just then down from a bush dropped
the mate of the ugly reptile and at once
showed fight, but this one also got a
whack with the kettle and was soon
killed. Mr.. Snyder lost all his berries
and left the field somewhat nervous and
excited after his set-to and victory. The
''snaix" were about 51S feet long. g.-Potts-

Water which is hot of course cannot
freeze until it has parted with its heat;
but water that has been boiled will,
other things being equal. freeze sooner
than water which has not been boiled.
A slight disturbance Of water disposes
it to freeze more rapidly, and this is the
cause which accelerates the freezing of
boiled water. The water that has been
boiled has lost the air naturally con-
tanned in it, which on exposure to the
atmosphere it begins again to attract
and absorb. During this process Of abb
sorption q motion is necessarily pro-
duced among its particles, slight GER
tainly and imperceptible, yet probably
sufficient to accelerate its congelation.
In unboiled water this disturbance does
not exist; indeed water when kept per-
fectly still can be reduced several de-
grees below the freezing point without
It's becoming ice. Brooklyn Eagle.

The Tammany Orator Says New York
state Is Solid.
The subjoined letter from the Hon.
w. Bourke Cochran voices the senti-
ment of New York Democrats so admi-
rably that it is given for publication by
Mr.. Howry as an encouragement to the
cause everywhere. Ii was written in
response to an inquiry as to how the
nomination of Mr.. Cleveland was re-
ceived in New York, accompanied with
the statement that while the writer, as
an adherent of Cleveland's nomination,
had heard Mr.. Cockran's plea at Chicago
without being convinced, nevertheless
we We're all interested In the stand the
Tammany and other organizations in
that state would take now that the
nomination had been made, and that no
one was so well qualified to tell the
friends of Cleveland in the south as the
Tammany orator. The letter of Bourke
Cochran is characteristic of the Tam
many leader, and shows that the New
York Democrats are united in fact:

land has been received throughout the state In

vention are determined to labor with especial
vigor to achieve success at the polls. feel
absolutely confident that the state of New

Lowell people at Ocean Park had
an experience that will enable them
to tell about the largest fish story Of the
season. Soon after dinner it was dis
covered that the bluefish were driving
mackerel in schools into Goose Fair
brook, a stream about knee deep and a
rod wide. By 4 o'clock probably $50
persons-men, women, boys and girls
were hard at work in the water. Every
male who arrived at the scene Of action
promptly Invested himself of shoes and
stockings and entered the water. The
women and girls did the same.
Altogether conservative estimate
would make the afternoon catch at least
an ordinary one horse cart full.

The principal complaint of farmers is
high taxation. High taxation Is caused
indirectly by the protective tariff. The
Republican platform favors the high
tariff, the Democratic platform de-
nounces it and pledges the party to
regulate it, and the third party platform
