Sure Cure for Rheumatism.

Several years ago, A. J. Calhoun, who then lived on the Ocate river, in Mora county, New Mexico, was bitten by rattlesnake. He had been sufferer from rheumatism for a number of years prior to the time of the accident. By prompt atten- ton he suffered but little from the effects of the bite. The writer saw him some years afterwards, and in speaking of the miShap, he said he had been entirely free from rheu- matic pains from the day the snake bit him up to that time, and that he regarded the bite of a rattlesnake an infallible remedy for rheumatism. Mir. Calhoun is a gentleman of undoubted veracity, and we have DO doubt the cure was effected in his case. We would not advise any of our readers to try the remedy, how ever, except as a forlorn hope. But, should any of them have a trouble some mother in law, who happens to be afflicted with rheumatism, they might prevail on her to try the remedy. as in that case they would be the gainer, no matter what the result of the experiment.-St. Johns Herald.

Mars. snow Capped Mountains.

Prof. Pickering, the astronomer in charge of the Lowell observatory at FlasstalT, under date of June Fl is- sues the following:
 Observations on Mars so far have proven highly satisfactory. The south polar snow cap, which by October will have practically disap- peared, still covers nearly the entire frigid gone. IL appears to be melt ing rapidly. X large rift, l2O0 miles long and 200 miles wide, now cuts il almost in two. Upon the south seg- ment, and just overlooking a great bay in the south polar sea, several brilliant points have appeared. Back ofthese tha -aDw IS shaded to tho rift. Such 5r yht points and sL. shading behind them seem to .nu.raltu-a cf uountains there. l similar spot, less brilliant, upon .:.a uI- - -f -uOw, suggests a -.r .s range 5ersecting the ss.s.gtusl rit is a uarrower one not set SD Jar altaueeG.

MOONLIGHT NORTH AND SOUTH.

Love, we have heard together The North sea sing his tune And felt the winds wild feather Brush past our cheeks at noon And seen the cloudy weather Made wondrous with the moon. Where lOvelinoss is ranest 'Tis also prized the most The moonlight shone her fairest Along that level coast, Where sands and dunes the barest or beauty seldom boast. Far from that bleak and rude land. An exile ! remain. Fixed in a fair and good land valley and plain. Rich in fat fields and woodland And watered well with rain. Last night the full moons splendoF Shone down on Taunton Dena, And pasture fresh and tender And coppice dusky green The heavenly light did render In one enchanted scene, One fair unearthly vision. Yet soon mine eyes were cloyed And found those fields ely Too rich to be enjoyed, Or was it our division
 Made all my pleasure voidl Across the window glasses The curtain then drew, And as a sea bird passes
 In sleep my spirit flew To gray aud windswept grasses And moonlit sands and you. R. Y. Murray in Longman's Magazine.

CurInrR Ratilesnake Rite.

"All this talk about golondrina weed being a sure cure for the bite of a rattlesnakc, or that the Indians ever use it for the purpose, is all hosh," said Henry Morgan yester- day at the courthouse, as he exam ined a sprig of the plant cut from the ditches of the lawn. "Pd hate to trust my life to it, taken extern ally or made into tea as described in the papers. The Indians don't know any use whatever for the weed. All they do when anyone is bitten by rattler is to at once suck the wound. It is not at all dangerous and does the business every time if the poison has not gone too far. As a treatment it beats whisky or any application 1 ever heard of."-Phe- nix Gazette Sucking the wound may be a good treatment for a rattlesnake bite, but it is not likely to become as popular as the old fashioned whisky antidote.

Senator Aliens anti-speculatlve proposition has a leak in it. It doesn't prohibit Senator's sons from taking a flyer. - Chicago Inter- Ocean, Rep.
 The Tennessee republicans are about to make the mistake of fusing with the populists. If they desire any information as to the expediency of that policy, they can obtain it by applying to the democrats of Kan sas.-Kansas City Star, Dem.
 So We presume it Is necessary for the United States, once in a genera tion, to have a democratic admins tratiun just as horrible example. It is a little hard on producers, but ii will toe better for the country when the crash is oyer.-Salt Lake Tribune, Rep.
 A clerical error m the tariff bill of 1873, cost the government over S2,0O0OOO. As the tariff bill of 1894 will divert public revenue into private pockets, few clerical errors are the last lingering hopes of i'm provement.- St. Louis Globe Demo crat, Rep.
 The tariff bill which is about to pass the Senate IS abominable. Practically, it will yield the con sumer little, if any, relief. It pre-. sents the democratic party in the character of both fool and fraud, crippling the cause without shadow of compensation. - Louis vile Courier-Journal, Dem.
 When a Kentucky democrat wants an office, he wastes no time pretend ing that he has any doubt of his own fitness or availability, or that he has been dragged into public notice against his will, or has reluc- iantiy consented to permit the use . ot his name or anything of the sort. He just says he wants the office, and goes for it.-New York Tribune, Rep.
 Yale's senior class contains IA republicans and # democrats. It is at Yaie. as may be remembered, that President Sumner has been iaboring these many years to per saade these young men that repub- iican protection is iBiqditous and P uncOnstit tional.

Mortality OF French Infants.

Owing to the enormous mortality of
newly-born Parisians put out to nurse,
and owing TO the great mortality of in
fants, principally among the laboring
classes, from diphtheria and measles,
and the high mortality of the citizens
from consumption, the average life or
average age of those who die in Paris
appears to be only twenty-eight years,
while for the whole of France the aver
age age is forty. Nevertheless the popu-
lation of Paris increases more and more
by the incessant immigration of pro-
vincials and foreigners, who make up
two-thirds as against one-third of ma
tives. But owing to their feeble natal
ity and high mortality the families
which are not united to these immi-
grants die out in three, four or at most
five generations.
