Slavery In Siam.

Slavery in Siam has been abolished in
name, but it can never be abolished in
fact, for the slaves have no means Of
supporting themselves outside their
masters houses. Every member Of the
Siamese upper classes can fetter his serv-
ants or throw them into prison without
any kind of trial or permission being
necessary. One morning l went to call
upon one Of the ablest and most enlight-
ened of the ministers, a man who has
been to Europe, and who once actually
got into serious trouble for trying to in

A Girl Battles with Rattlers.

While we are telling snake stories the
following good one comes to us from the
mountain region. Mr.. E. T. Dulin stand
ing as authority: The country around
Little Big Black mountain is ginseng
region, and the Parker family are noted
as "sengers." The girls go out barefooted
in the mountains. though the country is
infested with rattlesnakes and copper
heads, and dig the ginseng, for which
they get good prices at the stores, from
which it is taken to Pennington gap for
shipment.
But along Glover gap and up Rattle
snake creek there are numberless rep.
tiles. Beckie Parker is good girl, about
10 years of age, strong, healthy looking
and handsome, but with a very deter
mined face. She is splendid shot and
often takes her winchester.
She goes after ginseng barefooted and
often alone. The roots are gathered in
May and September, and during the
month just passed she did thriving
business. One day, however, she came
across a den of rattlesnakes. She had
only stones and sticks with which to
fight the desperate battle. Some of the
snakes were larger than mans arm
and few of them as large as the calf Of
a mans leg. For hours she fought them
as they hissed and writhed and ratified
around her. But the brave, determined
girl battled with them until she killed
every one that did not succeed in hiding
among the crevices of rocks and in the
dense underground. When she hat
crushed the last one to be seen, she count
ed the dead, and there were just 63.-

The residents of Chester county had a
man hunt the other day. The object Of
the hunt was Wesley Mitchell, a colored
character, who had spread much terror
among the Chester countyans, and who
is wanted by both the Delaware and
Maryland authorities. The entire neigh
borhood turned out to hunt the would

quick for them. He speedily scaled the
tallest tree in the forest, and in spite of
all the pursuers could do he sat there
like a wild beast viewing the scene be-

Constable Strobe of West Grove and
Officer Grace of Kennett Square, the lead
ers of the band in pursuit of the assail-
ant, concluded that Mitchell would come
down if an attempt was made to dis
lodge him by telling the tree, but they
were mistaken. The tall timber was
completely cut down before Mitchell
budged, and then he carefully rode down
on the fallen tree and bolted far into the
forest. The hunters were dumfounded.
They expected to see him instantly killed

Curious Marriage Presents.

One New Jersey clergyman received
for a marriage fee in monogramed en-
velope bridge toll ticket of the value
of 2 cents. Another got something neat
ly wrapped in paper. He took it to a
grocer, told him that it was a wedding
fee, that he had not opened it and did
not know what it was, but would give it
to him, "sight unseen," for a water
melon. The grocer agreed, the dominic
seized his melon, and the grocer found
in the paper silver 8 cent piece. One
groom, as he passed out with his bride,
threw into workbasket an old pair Of
gloves, saying to the minister's wife that
she might have them. The ministers
wife looked at them with scorn and con.

the despised old gloves might be useful
after all. She attempted to put them or

Our Recent statuea.

Any foreigner who intends writing his
impressions of the United States should
not fail to notice our statues and in the
case of the two erected Fourth Of July in
New England he should certainly find
room to say something. At Newbury-
port the figure of Garrison in bronze was
uncovered, and at Bridgeport that o;
Barnum. The ordinary foreigner would
have a mental struggle to comprehend
why the two cities should select such
different subjects for memory and honor.
but nevertheless any schoolboy could
explain the whole matter, though we
doubt If the foreigner would be wiser
even with an explanation from our most
enlightened citizens.-Providence Jour
