Two Obstinate Women.

When IL woman wants a thing, she wants
1t with all her heart. On Tuesday last
one of the city's largest business houses ad-
vertised that certain number of women's
suits were to be disposed of at bargain
prices. At Q o'clock two women appeared
almost simultaneously at the counter
where these suits were displayed, both bent
upon the same errand. Unfortunately
there was but one suit of their size, and
both insisted on having that suit.
One secured the jacket and the other the
skirt. Neither would surrender to the 9th
err, though the saleswoman tried her best to
interest them in something else. They
kept up their struggle in good natured
way until nearly 6 o'clock in the evening,
when the hoorwalker brought about a tenn
porary cessation of hostilities by taking the
suit and announcing that the one who ap-
peared first at the counter on the following
morning could have it,
With the opening of the store the follow
ing morning both women appeared on the
scene, entering by different doors and reach
ing the counter together. There being every
indication that neither would yield, the
contest was ended by the withdrawal of
the suit from the sale.-Philadelph Rec

Many superstitious beliefs as to the "in-
fluence" of the moon still remain, even in
this last decade of the nineteenth century
In some localities it is believed to be un-
lucky to be empty handed when one first
beholds the new moon, and among the
same people having silver in the hands or
gold in the pockets is a good sign" If
one is about entering upon an important
undertaking, he had best defer proceedings
until the moon is Filling, that is, until
some time between "newn and 'full''
moon.
All English speaking people -refer to the
moon as she" and the sun as he" in
Hindoo mythology, however, the goddess
of night" is a male deity, supposed to be
the son of the patriarch Atri, young man
who was transferred TO the realms of space
because he was too good to associate with
other human beings The Malays, Siamese
and several classes and castles of the Chi
nese, speak of the moon AS great milk
curd OF butter ball which arose from the
primeval sea of milk when it was churned
by the gods to procure the much priced
beverage of Immortality. st Louis Re

The meeting between the robber chief
Dragics and the young king of Servia was
a far more romantic affair than as original
ly reported. The king, attended by a
strong escort, went for drive on Saturday
over the well wooded mountains to Usicze,
when suddenly man armed to the teeth
darted out of the dense forest, and holding
out pistol stopped the horses of the kings
carriage This was all done so quickly
that there was no time for any one to be
able to prevent the man shooting at the
king had he really meant mischief Before
the escort and suit, however, had sutfi-
GENTLY collected themselves to seize the
man he threw away his weapon, and sink
ing on his knee exclaimed: My lord and
king, / am the robber chief Dragics, upon
whose head thy government has set price
of 5000 francs. Up to the present they
have not, been able to catch me- Now |
voluntarily lay my life in thy hands"
The king was much startled and gave
orders that the man, who in the meantime
had been seized by the royal escorti should
be liberated, but told him to go and give
himself up at the next gendarmerie, adding
that he might count upon the royal elem

Interesting Proceedings of Two OF the
Largest Snakes In America.

interesting proceedings OF Two OF the
Largest Snakes In America.
The two large pythons which were i'm
ported from India for the geological gar
den have made themselves at home in their
new quarters. They are said to be the
largest reptiles in this country and natu-
rally attract considerable attention. They
had only been here two weeks when both
snakes underwent a change. They became
droopy, and it wae seen that they had be-
gun to shed their skins
The shedding process is about at an end
now, but the manner in which the snakes
accomplish the greater part OF the job is
wonderful. The greater python measures
16 feet and the other H. They are males
and have mouths like cellar doors, that are
filed with fangs. On Monday last the big
snake, which had eaten nothing for three
weeks because he was shedding his coat,
got move on himself and climbed one of
the small trees and coiled all around The
limbs Then he rubbed his head and neck
violently against the branches in every di-
rection and gradually loosened the old Gu
ticle from around his head, mouth and
neck
In the meantime the other snake was not
raising its head took hold of its big broth
er's neck, and by careful manipulation loos-
ened the skin from the head and neck for
about a foot down. Then it took hold of
the loosened skin, and the keeper and spec
tators who were watching the proceedings
saw what was going 60 happen. With its
head and neck free the big snake could help
in the shedding operation, and it twisted
around the tree near the top and began to
pull away from the smaller snake at top
speed. Inch by inch the old skin was re-
leased and the bright colors of the new cuti-
Gle came in view. 1t took nearly an hour
to get about half of the body free from the
old covering, and then both snakes rested.
The skin was pulled back just as one would
turn glove inside out and gave the rep
tile peculiar appearance.
When the snakes resumed their job they
employed different tactics. The larger
snake climbed higher, and the other made
itself fast lower down the tree. The smaller
one took hold of the skin and pulled for al
the exception of about two feet from the
big snakes tail, was loose.
Then a most wonderful thing happened
The big snakes head was at the top of the
tree, and he hadn't been paying much at
tention to the goings on at the other end o
his body When the smaller snake stopped
pulling, the big one looked down and saw
that something was wrong. His eyes glis
tened and reaching down he grabbed
mouthful of his own covering and proceed
ed to finish the job 1t was done with dis
patch and ease The big snake seemed
proud at his new suit and wriggled al
around the case and admired himself TO
some time. Then, to the astonishment O
the watchers, the smaller snake climbed tn
tree and went through the same perform
ance, assisted by the larger one.
After both reptiles were free from the oil
skins they made meal Of them, and eac
drank about a gallon of water to was
down the repast.-Philadelphia Press.
