Our calaboose has had some rough ex

as they went in he went out, and made his

as near being a land OF happiness as there

leads him to think that overwork and

A Snake That Climbs Glas, Walls.

In the natural history museum at
Paris there is a snake that climbs I'D
the polished glass walls Of its cage.
Tine process is described as follows
and is vouched for by M. Leon Val
liant, professor d'erpetologie." The
snake, which is 80 centimeters long.
first raises its head some way against
the glass and proceeds to disgorge
from its salivary and 1achrymal
glands an adhesive viscous fluid bv
the aid of which it succeeds in draw
ing its whole body up the cage. A
curious fact is that the end Of the
tail is kept tightly curled, SO as to af-
ford broader and more substantial
base of operations. This phenome-
non seems to dispose Of the question
whether snakes are able, as reported.
to climb up walls and penetrate the
ceilings of houses. Paris Letter.

WHEN OIL STOVES EXPLODE.

If Oil Stoves Are Kept as Clean as Lamps
Usually Are, There Is No Danger.
just as regularly as the summer
season comes round numberless small
fires are reported in the newspapers
as having been caused by the explo-
sion of oil stoves. In such cases what
really happens is generally only
this-that person rushes into a
kitchen where there is an oil stove,
sees the stove enveloped in flame,
and catching itup dumps it bodily
out of the nearest window. The
stove is broken to pieces by that pro-
ceeding, but there has been no ex-
plosion. In fact, the dealers say
that oil stoves never explode.
The trouble seems to be that peo-
pie do not take proper care of their
stoves. Instead of cleaning them
from time to time, as in the case of
lamps, they neglect them and allow
them to become clogged up with
coating of dust and oil. That mix
ture is very infammable, and if it
remains about the wicks it will
eventually take fire. In order for
the stove to explode there must be
sudden ignition of gas generated
withinit. If that happens, thest
will be blown to pieces. Most of the
stoves are now made, however, so
that the gas from the oil can escape
through holes perforated in the cap
of the oil chambers, and as those
holes allow communication with the
open air, if an explosion-that is,
quick ignition of gas-should take
place, it is doubtful if il would do
any damage.
If a stove should burst into flame
on account Of the coating of dust
and oil, SO long as the fame did not
come into contact with anything in
fammable, like wood, there would
probably be no damage done. The
dust and oil would burn off the sur
face; then the fame would go out.
1t is possible that trouble might be
occasioned in rare instances by the
overheating of the stove, hut accord.
ing to the dealers the temperature
must be raised to 100 degrees before
the oil will flame. The dealers seem
to think that if the stoves are kept
thoroughly clean the chance for
trouble is very slight.-Boston Tran
script.

An Interesting Relic.

Captain G.. w. Bullene, United
States inspector of boilers, has a
pocket piece which he prices highly.
1t is a copper token or souvenir, Just
the size of silver dollar, issued by
authority of the First congress and
bearing the date "1776."
On one side is the familiar relief of
the Goddess of Liberty, beneath her
the date and over her head a group
OF ID stars, with spreading rays be-
meath them. Around these is tho in
scription containing the first of the
self evident truths of the Declaration
of Independence-viz, 'These united
colonies are and of right out to be
free and independent states" The
inverse side is SO worn that all the
lettering cannot be read.
Around the margin are the words,
by authority of the congress of the
United States" Inside of this is a
wreath forming a full circle, in the
lower part of which appear the
words, American Independence. "
Above these words the surface is
worn, and only the letters zion" can
be made out, suggesting the whole
inscription, "In commefmoration of
American independence" The miss
ing words could doubtless be sup
piled from the records of congress or
by some expert numismatist. Seat
