Sambo's Fragment Party.

I'VE had fragment party over In
Indianapolis the other day" said Ma
ior Schwander There were five OF
Us. One had lost both legs, another
both arms. a third was bald as bill
lizard ball, forth was minus nose,
a fifth both ears. Every one had az
pealed to art to make good the def
cheney of nature. After enjoying sew
eral bottles Of blue label, we conclud-
ed that we would spen1 the night
together. There were two beds in
the room. and we decided that they
were sufficient for the five fragments
of humanity; so we told the colored
gentleman in attendance TO prepare
us for the embrace Of the drOwsy god.
He tackled the bald party first.
When the wig came off, SambO's eyes
opened wide. The bald gentleman in
sisted that he had been scalped, and
threatened to have Sambo indicted
for mayhem.
HI next waited upon the gentle
man with the wax ears, and they
came of with his undershirt. We all
gave voice TO a cry Of horror, and
Sambo turneda beautiful bottle green.
The man with the papier-mache
nose begged hard that he be not mu-
tilated. and when he doomed up
above his robe de cambre minus that
important facial organ the poor black
made bolt for the door. The nose
less man headed him off, and in
voice that sounded like that Of a
wheeZv ghost commanded him to COM
plete has task.
Both arms of the next man came
off, and we had to pour II bottle Of
wine down Sambo before his knees
would resume business at the old
stand The mourning of the four men
for their lost members and their dire
threats of vengeance Were ringing in
his ears when he attempted to re-
move my boots. He tugged until his
eyes bulged out; then | loosened the
strap and let 'em go. He staggered
to his feet. holding leg in each
hand, gave yell that could be heard
a mile, and jumped through the win
dow without waiting to raise the
sash "

A Snakes Hot Meal.

A young professional gentleman
os this city recently travelled over
land to Tappahannock. On the route
he discovered IL large black snake
slowly crawling among the branches
of a tree that stood by the roadside.
Following the snake with his eve,
saws the Fredericksburg Lance, the
observer saw an unusually large
hornets nest attached TO one OF the
branches of the tree, and toward
which the snake was advancing.
When close to the nest the snake
coiled itself about Il limb, released its
tail, and with it gave several hard
raps upon the exterior OF the nest, as
if knocking for admission. The noise
of the blows aud the swaying OF the
nest caused the hornets 10 leave their
home and prepare for an attack up
OH the intruder. The snake ceased
tapping with its tail "a soon us the
hornets left the nest, uncoiled itself,
aud quickly disappeared, taking the
place of the hornets with their nest.
Presently the snakes head WAS seen
TO peer out, and his bright black eyes
plistened as he anticipated Il feast
from which the bravest man would
shrink with fear The snake drew
his head within the entrance hole to
the nest until nothing was seen OF it
except and occasional forked tongue
that darted i'm and out with light ming
rapidity. Thinking the coast clear,
the hornets began 10 return to their
nest, when the snake took them Ill as
rapidly as they could enter Watch
ing the proceedings for some time,
our informant concluded that all the
hornets had been safely hived, and
he stood up in his buggy, tapped the
nest with his whip and awaited the
result
No hornets appearing, The nest was
then knocked TO the ground, opened
and his snakcship discovered III tor
Did condition, with his size greatly in
creased. The snake was killed and a
post-mortem held, with the following
result: Stomach stuffed Will: dad
hornets. Mr.. W. S. White, attorney
for the commonwealth for Stafford
county, vouches for the truth of the
story.

presided over by an overseer of high

many days work or so many dollars

OF course, no taxpayer would pay

mud pies on their road all day, and
visit and gossip with the neighbcrs

A Texas Coroner,s Verdict

Down in Texas, near the little town of Lang
try, laborer fell off big viaduct that is being
built for the railroad across the Pecos river
canyon and was killed, says the San Francisco
Examiner.
The structure Is about 300 feet high and 1 700
feet long, and the unfortunate workman fell
from about the middle of it to the CANYON below
and was horribly mangled.
An inquest was held shortly afterward by
coroner Roy Bean, and when he arrived at the
scene OF the accident with number of people
from the town and score or more of the bridge
workmen, he found on the body a Colts re-
volver and $40 in money
Mr. Banana of the Phoenix Bridge Company.
VINO Is building the viaduct for the road, was
present at the inquest, and in a letter to w. G,
Curtis tells about it.
- According to Mr. BanEano's letter Coroner
Beans verdict was as follows:
Gentlemen said his honor to the by.stand-
ers, there is nothing TO find out how that
man came to his death. He fell from the bridge;
that's all there is about it. But there is one
thing That is not so plain, and that is, what was
ne doing with that gun? OF course he is dead
ana can't explain, but that amt the fault of
the law; It's his own misfortune Justice is
justice, and law is law, and as he can't offer no
satisfactory explanation Of the matter shall
De Obliged TO fine him $40 for carrying on or
about his person that pistol Because man
chooses TO don his wings and skim off to the
skies is no reason that the great state of Texas
should not have what is coming to her all the
same.'"
An hour later the body was buried by the
bridgemen
