from the wreck he went forward where
the gold was lying. The crowd moved
about in a circle endeavoring, no doubt,
TO get close TO the car which contained
the gold, but they lacked a leader. Had
enc of them made a determined break
the trainmen, in all probability, would
have been murdered and the gold taken.
But the leader didn't materialize. After
the shock had passed away il was evil
dent that the trainmen had the crowd

Nimrod Prickett, the wen-known in
surance man, tells Of an experience with
a venemous reptile while Out in the
country last Saturday that is calculated
to make a persons flesh creep. 1t is but
fair to Mr. Prickett TO state that he is
strictly a temperate man. He is also
noted for his truthfulness and whatever
he states in earnest may be taken as
strictly true. Last Saturday he had oc-
casiOn to call on a customer in the

strap was thrown around the post, a
slip knot made and then the slack was
drawn to make the hitch secure Just
as the strap frightened on the post a large
reptile swung itself loose from under the
strap and rapidly wound its Shiny body
about the insurance agents arm. The
man stood stupefied for a second as the
reptile at least six feet long frightened
the folds of its body until the arm ached
and turned black from stagnant blood
1t was a trying moment, but Mr.. Prickett
was equal to it and with his disengaged
hand he grappled the snake just back Of
the head. Mr.. p. is a powerfully built
man and has a grip Of iron. His fingers
frightened around the reptiles throat
until its eyes protruded from their
sockets and its fOrked tongue ran out
and hung limp at its side. Gradually the
folds Of the monster loosened and with
a powerful thresh Of the body struck its
antagonist a terrible blow across the face
with its tail, leaving a red mark. The
blow staggered the man and he loosened
his hold on his snakeship's throat and
the reptile tore loose and made off before
Mr.. p. was aware of what was going on.
The snake is described as having very
small head, deep red eyes, with brown
skin and dark green stripes running
down the beIly.-Goshen News.

A GOLD LOAN PROPOSED.

Senator Cameron has declared himself
in favor of gold loan of as many hun
dred millions as Congress may decide, the
gold so purchased TO be held in the treas
ury. This is what may be termed heroic
treatment of the silver question. Every
nation that goes in ito the market as a pur-
chaser of gold bids against every other ma
ticn. Gold must appreciate under this
method of treatment. The nation would
get it that was prepared to pay the highest
price for it. The conditions would be the
relative credits of the several bidders, the
term of the loans and the rate of interest
offered. II is conceivable that under such
a policy Europe might be nearly drained
OF gold. To save their gold new bonds
would need be issued bearing higher rates
of interest than are now current. OF
course, an appreciation of gold is but an
other term for depreciation of silver. The
impression is that Mr.. Cameron has taken
hold of the wrong end of the silver pI OBJ
lem. What is wanted is legislation TO
cause silver to rise to its old ratio TO gold,
not legislation to widen the gulf which
hostile legislation has already effected

TAKE THE TWIST OUT.

The Department of Justice has placed
the Chinese restriction act in chancery. 1t
assumes that where warrants of deporta-
tion have been issued writs of habeas
corpus may be sworn out, which must ulti-
mately be heard before the Supreme Court.
This is clumsy way to hang up an act Of
Congress. The English of it is that if
there is a number Of violators of law
none of them can be dealt with until the
Supreme Court finds time to consider indi-
vidual petitions to be set at liberty. 1t s
possible that either this or the next Con-
greSs will find some way to take the twist
out of proceedings which the Cleveland
administration has invented to nullify an
act of Congress-

UNDER WHIP AND SPUR.

The Washington correspondent of the
Boston Journal says:
The movement OF the Democrats in the House
OF Representatives for tie immediate repeal of
the United States election laws is a protest OF
the rank and file of Ine Democratic party
against Clevelands domination. The Wilson
bill for the unconditional repeal OF the silver
law was driven through The House under the
executive whip and spur
The Boston journal is conservative Re-
publican paper. 1t favors the repeal bill.
but is apparently not well satisfied with
the methods by which the House was in
duced to vote for repeal. The introduction
of the bill to repeal the Federal election
laws was ludicrous assertion of independ-
ence on the part of House Democrats who
had submitted to Cleveland's dictation as
to their action on a measure which is con-
sidered of The first importance. Having
voted for silver repeal under whip and
spur, they kicked viciously in the way of
repeating the election laws, just to show
that they wera not slaves.
