Could d. ;E;. Not Kill the Rome.

Mr.. W. H. Hudson, writing of animal
life on tho great South American pampas,
where there are many kinds of snakes,
both venomous and nonvenomous, says
that their enemies are legion. But perhaps
the most notable of snake killers is the
large lizard known as the iguana. The
iguana Is no mean adversary, as may be
Judged from the fact that dogs which at
tack one sometimes como off with o broken
leg. The lizard does not wait for the snake
to take the offensive, but goes swiftly in
pursuit, and being very rapid In Its mo-
tions seldom has any difficulty in over
taking its victim, which 1t dispatches by
blows of its powerful tail.
A friend Of Mr.. Hudson was out riding
after his catt,a. His lasso was attached to
the saddle, and the end trailed along the
ground after him. A big iguana lay in
the sun apparently asleep 1t paid no at
tention to the horse as 1t passed, but the
next instant 1t raised Its head and fixed its
attention on the 40 feet of lasso slowly
trailing by. Suddenly 1T rushed after the
rope and dealt 1T q succession Of violent
blows with Its tail When the whole OF
the lasso, several yards of which had been
pounded in vain, hadlbeen dragged by, the
lizard, with uplifted head, continued gaz-
ing after it with the greatest astonishment.
Never before had such a wonderful snake
crossed its patti. Youth' 3 Companion.

The Rothschild influence.

The accession of Lord Rosebery to the
premiership of the British empire increases
the prestige of the famous banking house
of Rothschild. Lord Rosehegy has been
identified with the latter evef since his
marriage with Miss Hannah Rothschild.
She bequeathed to him her vast fortune
when she died, but it remains in the hands
of the Rothschild firm. Not dinner party
does he give but that one Of the Roths-
childs is present, and his political power
and social prestige are increased hun
dredfold by the knowledge tAat he has at
his back the inexhaustible resources of the
Rothschilds, who control the finances of
nearly every continental country. AT Paris
they have one of their coreligionists and
adhorents, M. Raynal, who is minister of
the interior and possessed Of the most ex-
tensive executive power In France. In
italy it is one Of their race again, Signor
Sonnino, who is minister of the treas
ury. At Vienna and at Pesth their word
Is law at the ministry Of finance. At Brus-
sells King Leopold does nothing without
consulting M. Lambert, the son-in-lsw
and representative of Baron Alphonse
Rothschild, while In Portugal and Spain

speak Of the ''evil eye" as "ojo cahente,
or cheated eye, T" and they hold it in
such dread that small children are al

is known to be extremely tired on over
