TWILIGHT.

Slowly dies the long Juno day,
Softly rolls the earth away
tovelier light 1T length divining,
All dream OF misty bloom,
Trembling stars, and golden gloom,
Larger heavens and sweeter shining
Which Is dearer, dusk or day2
Where the glory died the dark,
Lost In fight the ruby spark,
Violet CLEAN, and saffron splendor,
Melt and lngle into one,
When the long June dny is done.
All the depths throb clcse and tender
Is II day, or is It dark7
Love the long June day had life,
Silver showers and sunny strife ga
Now It's rosy wrath fades Ger usi w
Eds vast twilight fills our eyes,
Yet what freedom OF the skies
Parts the star-sown way before US
Is 1t death, or is 1t life2

4 Queer Snake.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 17.-One of tho most curious freaks of nature ever seen in this city is doubleheaded snake. It was found by Drs. E. B. Silvers and G. M. Merritt of Jersey City, while gun ming near Charlottesville, Va. Dr. Silvers noticed the reptile while walk ing over 8 bare spot of ground and im- mediately took steps to capture him. This was accomplished by neans of Q small forked stick. In order to carry his prize the doctor withdrew the charge from one barrel of his gun and dropped the little snake in. On the train to this city, miner who had had great deal of experience with snakes, stated that he had never seen one like it, and offered S100 for it. The doctor, however, refused the offer. The ser pent is black, with white rings en- circling it's body. It is about 10 inches long. The heads are separate and distinct. and are united to the body i'll such way as to allow each to move independently. With its four eyes it is we'll able to observe even the slightest movement, and its little red tongues dart out in wicked manner. The owner will take the little fellow to tine Smithsonian institution to find out to what species it belongs, as the resi- dents in the vicinity of the place where he was found say that never has any similar snake been seen.

THE FEMALE NuIaEt X <.
They Plead Guilty mnd Are Let or on
 Small Fine.

OscEoLA, Neb.. Nov. 11--Po' county's notorious female wtitecin cases. in which mum Der of prominer women of Osceola were accused of riot and unlawful assembly in having flogged several young women three weeks ago for alleged immortality has been finally settled. When they were first arrested, immedHtely after the offense was committed, their cases were continued until November 20 and the women were released on bonds of $200 each. The young women who suffered at the hands of the whitecap aggrega- tion were not satisfied with this and Judge Allen w. Field came here in be- half of the girls. The women alleged to have fogged the girls were again ar- rested on the formal complaint of Miss Snyder, the one of the victims who suf- fered most from the beating admins tered. When the cases were called the women were represented by their at torneys, but were not present them selves. Miss Snyder could not be found when court opened. It was said by the attorneys of the whitecap committee that she had left the county. Her sud- den departure was mystery uninter- preted. AS 8 compromise of the whole affair it WAS agreed that the II women engaged in the affair would plead guilty of unlawful assembly and accept fine of $5 each. This was satisfactory to all concerned, as each side was anx- ious to dispose of the affair that oc- casioned so much unpleasant comment and has involved so many hitherto re- spectable families.
