1t Always Worked.

A Head-master of Harrow School, England,
had way essentially his own of getting rid
of little boys whom he invited to breakfast.
You know, little boys have peculiar habit of
becoming inconveniently glued to chair. The

youngster-who was perhaps in the middle of
another muffin-and say very gently, and

Gen. Weaver, the candidate for President on

to the voters of the party urging them 10 stick
together lie declares that the Peoples Party
is but little behind the Republican party in
the number of States carried; that it would
doubtless hold the balance of power in the
United States Senate; has donhled lis adher-

number of State Governments; holds the bal
ance of power in majority of States and has
gained large following in every State of the
South.

The control of the Wyoming Legislature is
still claimed by both the Democrats and the
Republicans. The Republican State Committee
claims that the official count will give them
the Legislature by majority of one. The
electoral vote is still undecided, and will re-
quire the official count to decide the election
OF the Harrison or Weaver electors.

Too Large u Fish.

If fisherman angling for bass were
suddenly to find whale on his line,
especially if the whale were disposed to
punish the man who dared attempt to
catched him, he might feel as these
bows did when they drew in their line
expecting to find fellow schoolmate
at the end, and discovered they had
captured the head master.
An unreported amusing incident
once occurred 10 Archbishop TAFT
when he was Head Master of Rugby.
While passing one of the houses occu-
pied by student he saw rope dangling
from one of the windows.
Seizing the rope he instantly found
it pulled so vigorously from the other
end that his feet came off the ground,
and he was left hanging in the air and
drawn slowly up to the window al
most before he knew where he was or
what risk he ran.
Luckily, however, the window was
lot very high up. No sooner had the
head and shoulders of the head master
appeared before the eyes of the boys up
there than, in their astonishment,
they let go the cord, and the future
Archbishop of Canterbury lay spraw-
ling Oh the ground.
One of the boys had Zen sent into
the town for something, and that was
the way he was to rejoin them, as,
with many apologies, they informed
their head master, and the latter, be-
ing only slightly shaken, and fnrtu-
nately not hurt, was good enogh to let
the offenders off that time with a light
punishment.

The Bite OF n Snake.

The heads of most of the Yeneomous
snakes, including the "rattlerS," bulge
Just beyond the neck. Without eXcep-
ton they have fangs, either always
erect, or raised and laid back at will.
These fangs are long, sharp-pointed
teeth, with hollow groove running
their entire length. At the root of
each fang is little bag of poison.
When the snake bites, the motion
presses the poison-sac, and its contents
flow down through the hollow in the
tooth into the puncture or wound.
The harmless little forkeG tongue is Of
ten spoken of by the uninformed az
the snakes "slinger." Now, there is
no propriety in the name, as the pois-
onous snakes do not sting, but bite,
their victims. There is no creature,
even if brought from foreign countries
where "rattlers" do not exist, but
will halt and tremble ut the first warn
ing sound of the rattle.
DR.. S. Weir Mitchell, with others,
has been making experiments with the
venom of different serpents. He has
qualities, it contains living germs,
when nave the power Oi increasing
enormously fast. So, you see. when
all animal is bitten, these tiny bits of
life, entering with the poison, cause
harmful action to begin almost at
once. DR.. Mitchell has found that the
nervous center controlling the act of
striking seems to be in the spinal cord,
for if he cut of, q snakes head, and
then pinched its tail, the stump of its
neck turned back, and would have
to hold it still.

A CURIOUS PROPHECY.
A Fart of II Has Been FulGilcd---DiS-
aSterS to Come.
TPhiladelphia Press.


PHILADELPHIA Press.
In August, 1857, the Bavaran Ale
gemeine Zeitung printed a remafk-
able prophecy, which had been hiaoc
by and old hermit many years before.
In it the rise OF Napoleon Ill was clear
ly outlined. as were also the Austro-
Prussian and the Franco Prussiah
wars and the Commune OF Paris. ne
told how the death OF Pope Plus Wouio
occur in 1876 or 1877, and how 1t would
be followed by Tusco- Russian war,
both predictions being but sllghtiiy
wrong. He said that Germany would
have three Emperors in one year be-
fore the end of the century, when we
know was verified to the letter IN 1913:
He missed it one in the number OF
United States Presidents that were t"
die by assassination, which was re-
markably close gussing, to say the
least. -, oc
Now for the future: The opening OF
the twentieth century is To see Man
haitian Island and the whole OF New
York CITY submerged in the waters OF
the Hudson, East River and the BAY.
Cuba is to break in two, and part or IT,
including portion of the city OF Ha-
vana, to sink beneath the waves.
Florida and lower California are TO
break loose from the mainland ana
carry their load of human freight TO
the bottom of the sea.
The twenty-tifth is TO be the last OF
the United States Presidents; and Ire,
land is to be kingdom and England
repulic by the end of the next cen
tury. r,
If this seer of seers is to be relied
upon, the United States will soon be
divided. and San Francisco, Salt Lake
City (which he referred to as the para
dies in the American desert"), New
Orleans, st. Louis, Washington and
Boston are to he made capitals of the
six republics that are to be reared on
the ruins of the present United States.
10 return to Europe: The end of the
twentieth century will not find either
Italy or France upon the maps, and
Berlin will have been totally destroyed
by an earthquake.
