teen copperhesds and four ra.tlesnakes

teen copperheads and four rattlesnakes
had been killed. Several of them had
followed her from the stone pile, Kissing
aud writhing in anger. AS soon as pos
sible Mrs. Smith was taken TO her home
and assistance summoned, but there was
not the slightest chance of saving her
life. Her body became quickly swollen
10 an enormous extent, and the skin
assumed hideous colors. She had been
bitten dozen times in the face, and her
features became ore mass of bloated
green and black. Sight fled and speech
left her. The pain soon drove her into
delirium, and in the most horrible agony
life passed away.

IL e Valu able Products of Tar.

The president of the Albany Municipal
Gas Company, Anthony n. Brady, who
is prominently identified with financial
interests in this city. told me recently
that few gas companies were still using
the old coking process for the manufac-
ture OF gas from coal, notwithstanding
that the use of naptha adds largely to
the economy of our gas companies. l
remarked that il was strange that all the
companies did not utilize the cheapest
methods, and he said that the discontinu'
ance of the coking process has caused
a rise in the value of its waste products,
and especially of coal tar, which
is used largely in the manufacture
OF aniline dyes, saccharine, etc.
This has made it profitable for a
few Of the gas companies TO continue
TO use coal. Mr.. Brady added that the
gas made from nspths is generally con-
sidered TO be superior 10 that manufac-
tured from coal. In this connection
am reminded of the good fortune of =
junk dealerin Troy, who at the close OF
the war, finding that old rags could be
utilized for the manufacture of shoddy
cloth, invented process for turning
cotton rags into cotton waste which
could be woven into cloth that would
sell at very remunerative figure. Out
OF this little discovery the enterprising
junkman developed very large and
profitable business, and to-day his pos
sessions are valued well up toward q
million dollars. IL was this long
headed man who remarked TO a friend
that any one who would find way to
utilize a waste product could find the
quickest path TO wealth.-[New York

THE CITY COUNCIL.

Both branches OF the City Council will
meet this evening at O'Clock by adjourn
ment, and in all probability will go into
grand committee for the election of a
Board OF License Commissioners. In
view OF the fact, many OF the candidates
were around yesterday quietly buttonhol-
ing the members in order to secure support
for tonight.
The probabilities remain the same as
last week with, however, a possibility of a
change In the First Ward man. There
are number OF the Republicans who
have declared against picking upa new
man at the behest OF Mr.. Tiepke.
The Mayors veto on the several fire
station sites may be called up and II 1t

THE SITUATION,

At the present time the result OF the
Newport complications is doubtful.
Whether the pendulum OF Fate swings
one way or another, only time will tell.
The Senate has acted with prcmptness In
seating Senator Smith, the House with
equal promptness In unseating Represen-
tatives Landers and Hoxsie. Thus far
honors are easy. 1t might be said, though,
that the House has played the most In.
teresting game, for Speaker Owens has
meted out to the Republicans some OF
their own medicine and the Wilson act
has been most unceremoniously trampled
upon and disregarded.
Undoubtedly the whole situation has
been thoroughly canvassed by the DEM
ocratic leaders. 1t was fitting and proper
that the House should first consider the
qualifications OF Its own members before
1t went into grand committee. BY doing
30 1t asserted Its own dignity and a well
established and ancient right was upheld.
1t promptly ignored all laws passed by a
mephitic Assembly for 1.-THE purpose OF
gerrymandering the State. The simple
question now is, will the grand committee
meet? viii the Senate so attempt to die
tate to the House that by It's action 1t Will
refuse to meet In joint assembly! II the
House had met without unseating these
two unqualified interlopers, Republican
general officers would have been elected.
II they refuse to elect officers now we shall
have holdover government with Repub-
lican officers Just the same. In this the
Democrats are as well OF one way as the
other; the Republicans are at fault, and
must take all the blame, and we are ready
to meet them on this issue.
But what Is to be done In regard to the
other offices in the Slater Are none OF
the offices to be flled' By this refusal are
we TO have no Legislature for a Year, II
SO, we doubt II there will be any RepublI-
can Senate next year. There has been too
much OF an attempt to keep themselves In
power already for the liking OF the people
OF the State. It has been a constant and
perpetual endeavor on their part. they
see Republicanism dying out and see that
IT Is necessary to retain power by legisla-
tion. Legislation thus far has failed. II
is only dogged refusal OF a Republican
Senate that holds the day. But In spite
OF the Republican Senate the people will
rule yet. They will soon be cast out. when
there will be weeping and gnuhing Of
teeth.

THE SALARY QUESTION.

When the City Council fixes the salary
OF the License Commissioners 1t should
place 1t at a respectable figure, commen-
surate with the services performed. II
ought to have the courage OF its convic-
tIons and not attempt, by low salary, to
thin out the number of applicants for che
positions. This seems to be the course In
Providence, but let us set. a better exam
pie. Courage in such matters is the very
essence OF political wisdom.

Ats private view given to a few
favored persons at the palace Of art
this afternoon there happened a
strange thing, which showed how un.
used the innocent and provincial peo-
pie Of the west are to such beautiful
works. A man with two women, who
might have been taken for his wife
and sister, had come in front of this
queer fancy of the German artist, and
all had retreated from the gallery as
If they had suddenly found them
selves in the cholera ward of a
hospital.
The faces of the women were scar
let, and the mans eyes snapped with
indignation. Presently he advanced
to Charles j. Taylor, Puck's clever
artist, who was visiting there, and
spoke to him.
"Sir," said he, "can you tell me
whether this next gallery is for gen.
tlemen or for both sexes?: Upon my
word, 1 can't tell which place to go
with my lady friends and which
places to keep out of. 1 just got in a
.frightful scrape taking them in that
hall over there"
The treatment the people are get
ting is drastic and cruel, but it will
work wonders in cultivating and re-
filming them, and they will learn to
love the beautiful in art just as the
whole country learned to use rugs and
interior hangings after seeing the
Philadelphia worlds fair seventeen
years ago.

THE GREATEST EVER HELD.
An English Journalist Expresses His
Opinion of The Fair.

Sir James Long, proprietor of the
Sheffield, England, Telegraph, who
visited the worlds fairlast week with
a party of British Journalists, has
given his impressions of the transac-
ttons aud prospects of the fair. He
said he considered the Chicago fair
the greatest ever held, the most ex-
%tensive, the most costly, architecture
ally the most imposing. 1t was a
question of money, and never before
had SO much money been contributed
for such a purpose. The buildings
were much ahead of those at Paris,
but he was disappointed at the UNI
ready state of the exhibition. The
most forward exhibit was that of
Great Britain, and strangely enough
the most backward exhibits were
those which the Americans them
selves were making. In his district,
in Sheffield, all but two manufacture
ers had practically boycotted the
Chicago fair ON account of the Nc
Kinlcy act preventing them from
selling goods in the United States.
He had approved of this action at the
time they decided it, but he now
thought that it was Il mistake. Many
of the British merchants were losing
the opportunity of a lifetime for adj
vertising. If it had not been for the
Mckinley act England's exhibit at
Chicago would have been the best that
country Eel made. He did not think
the exhibition of paintings equal to
that made at Vienna. The fair, he
said, would not be fully ready for
visitors for six weeks. He did not
think 1T would be a financial success.
