THE GLASS SNAKE.
A Reptile That Breaks I'm Pieces and
Unitcs Its Parts Again.

Unitcs Its Parts Again.
On a recent Monday the keeper of
the Zoo garden noticed that the glass
snake, which is in one of the cases
near the entrance to the reptile house,
had become sluggish and did not care
for the small things of life, says a
Philadelphia correspondent. He kept
his eyes on the reptile until Tuesday,
and he noticed no Improvement.
Wednesday, he came to the conclusion
that something was wrong and deter
mined to investigate. Accordingly he
raised the lid of the case and put his
hand on the snake. There was no
movement to denote life, and the
keeper thought his pet had died. He
gently picked it up, and almost in
stantly the snake became animated.
1t wiggled and squirmed and finally
fell to the stone floor with a crash.
The keeper heard the noise and real
lied that the snake had tumbled, but
he could not understand the cause of
the crash. His mind was soon settled
rs to this, however, for he saw the
glass snake had broken into a dozen
pieces and each section was moving
about as if it had a head and q tail of
it's own.
The keeper was astonished, but did
not lose his presence of mind, and
fastened to gather up the pieces.
Some of the middle sections, however,
had wiggled under a pile of stones,
while others had burrowed in the dirt.
There was nothing to do but to put
the pieces that could be found to-
gether. This was done. The keeper
knew that the glass snake lived for u
long time with only the head and body
and a small piece Of the tail attached,
and he was not much worried, SO he
said nothing about the accident. He
put the snake back in the case and
went about his business. Thursday
some friends called on him and the
keeper related his experience of the
day before and his friends laughed.
They Thought he was joking. TO show
them that he was in earnest the keep
cr allowed them to handle the snake
and examine the new joints.
One of the visitors more clumsy than
the rest let the snake fall, and to the
CONSERVATION of the entire party it
broke in half and the tail end wiggled
over 10 the pile of stones while the
other half made for the soil under the
case. Here was a state OF affairs that
was not looked for, and for more than
an hour the keeper looked for the two
sections of the snake, but in vain.
That night he had but little sleep. lie
saw snakes all the time. In the morn
ing he went to his duties with heavy
heart. About nine o'clock Friday
morning while cleaning up the house
the keeper discovered the glass snake
making a meal Of spider and dozen
flies that had been caught in the web
under one Of the cases, and to his as
tonishment and delight the snake was
| almost whole and intact. All the Sec
tions save n small piece of the tail had
come together. The snake was placed
in the case and soon became lively.
No trace of the glass snakes tail can
be found, but it is said that it may APP
pear some day with head and body
| attached.

Especial Worlds Fair Letter. J

Especial Worlds Fair Letter.l
The historian, when writing. about
the Worlds Columbian exposition, will
be able to make but one pertinent crit
icism. That will refer to the magni-
tude of the enterprise. Even now it is
being admitted that the fair is too
as'big" The distances that have to be
covered by visitors are indeed ''nag-
nifcent," and the average man or wo,n-
an is tired long before any ofthe mar
velous exhibits have been seen. The
American people, we all know, like
s'big things" They want everything
they undertake to be just little big
ger" than anything ever attempted in
Europe. When, therefore, the an
nouneement was made few years ago
that the Chicago fair was to occupy
nearly six hundred acres of land and
that the exhibits were to be placed in
buildings larger in size than anything
ever erected in times, either ancient or
modern, the nation seemed pleased
and ready to admit that Chicago was,
indeed, dominated by the true Ameri-
can spirit.

taste and convenience were sacrificed
to the Moloch of bigness. Buildings
which should adjoin each other were
separated by magnificent distances"
and when the gates of the exposition
grounds were opened on May the
public began to realize that comfort is,
after all, of more real value to human
kind than mere size. Everything at
Jackson park was conducted on a
grand scale-even the expeno ture of
money furnished by poor stockholders.
The throwing away Of the peoples
funds has been stopped since the LIST
of July, but the great distances and
the huge buildings remain.
To say anything against the fair at
Chicago is to commit an unpardon-
able sin. The citizens are proud of

ride in a patrol wagon and long rest
in the guard house.
The oft-repeated charge that women
as sex wear shoes entirely too small
for their wearers is proved every day
at Jackson park, for scarcely q minute
passes which does not see some fair
visitor seek out a secluded spot where
she can remove her ''pinchers" and Sc
cure a few moments cessation of tor
ture.
And all these trials are endured for
the sake Of trying to perform the inpos-
sible task of seeing all the fair in few
days. If persons who car stay in Chi
cago but short time would conine
themselves to viewing those exhibits
in which they are specially interested
instead of running from one building
to another they would derive more
benefit from their visit and add to their
enjoyment. Four hours per day is as
much as anyone can, in justice to him
self and the glorious things he sees,
spend in the buildings. The rest of his
visit should be devoted to recreation
and rest.
The man who comes to Chicago ex-
pecting to see everything is as foolish
as the ancient mariner who wanted to
count the stars in six nights. That
fellow, all who have read the story
know, went stark mad on the third
night. Stars he had seen the night be-
fore had disappeared and others had
established themselves before his eyes.
If he had confined himself to looking
for the planets and the dippers and
other familiar consultations he would
not have thrown himself overheard.
II is much the same way with the fair
visitor who wants to see all the glories
of jackson park in a week. He will
either tire himself out until he is sick
or he will lose what little sense he had
when he first entered the gates.

consists IN seeing just enough to
satisfy the mind. To look upon more
is waste of time and energy.
But the tired multitude is not an
unmixed evil. 1t affords considerable
amusement to the student of human
nature and the lover of the ridiculous
,Strolling by the Electricity building
the other day our artist came across a
family party consisting of mother
and her three hopefuls. Mamma was
seated in a roller chair, one child re-
.clining against her shoulder, the other
tumbling over itself and the third
snoozing at her feet. The chair
pusher, whose beetling brow was
covered with the dew of hard work,
rolled his load along until he became
aware of the fact that his varied as
sortment of passengers was sound
asleep Then, with rare presence of
mind, he rolled the chair into Sc
cluded corner, sat down on a bench,
wiped his perspiring face and allowed
mamma and her offspring to sleep on
at the rate of rs cents an hour. The
artist says that, judging by the quaint
noises that originated from the
luxurious family couch, the roller
chair company's dividends for the week
must have been augmented consider
ably before the ''pusher'' resumed his
operations.
The state houses are favorite resorts
for tired people. They are furnished
neatly, contain comfortable lounges
and easy chairs and have free writing
and toilet rooms. In the forenoon
they are deserted, but in the afternoon
they are crowded with wornout sight
seers who long for an hours rest.
Every available seat is preempted long
before three o'clock. Women and chill
dren monopolize the easy chairs, the
men are satisfied with the steps and
veranda rails; the children prefer the
floor. One young woman from Indiana
whose fatigue overcame her good
breeding was seen reclining in an
uncomfortable corner chair, her
knees drawn up to meet her fam
covered face. She was sound asleep
and, fortunately, did not hear the re-
marks made about her appearance by
the callous dudes from Indianapolis
who went in and out to view the
dreaming beauty. A man from
Maine, allured by the smell of the
grass on the Wooded island, stretched
himself out under tree the other day
