DESERTED APPoMATToN.-lt was ar
nounced in the newspapers that Dec
Grafton Day would be celebrated at
Appomattox by the erection of iron
signboards to mark the location of the
two armies at the hour Of the surren-
der. but Major Davis, of the army, who
has charge of such affairs, tells me,
writes the Washington correspondent
of the Chicago Record, that he had
heard of no arrangement of the KIND.
The signboards were placed nearly a
year ago The old town of Appomat-
tox, he says, is entirely deserted, with
the exception of five or six families, Of
whom only one, that of a Methodist
clergyman, is white. A syndicate
bought up all the property few years
ago, as a speculation, and when the
owners got their money and signed
their deeds they moved away, leaving
their houses empty. The court house
was burned about the same time and a
new one was erected at the railway
station about three miles distant, where
considerable town has sprung up.
The Mclean house, in which the arti-
cles of surrender were written and
signed, was purchased by the syndi-
cate and was taken down, brick by
brick, for removal to the Worlds Fair,
but for some reason the plan was not
carried out, and the bricks and timbers
are still stored in the vacant houses IN
the neighborhood.

He LIvEDTo WED AGAIN.-That the
breaking of the skull and nearly every
bone in the body doesn't begin to knock
the romance out of one man. was amply
demonstrated by f. Dudley Fisk, a
house painter, who was welded in New
York TO pretty black eyed Addie r.
Humbert The story on which this
latest romance in the life OF Fisk is
based is remarkable.
While painting five-story building
in Jersey City year ago, Fisk fell
through his very high scafiolding and
fractured his skull, ribs. legs, arms and
almost every other bone in his body.
His wife deserted him. His mother,
however, nursed him back to health af-
ter long period Of helplessness in her
home and the hospital.
Since his recovery the wife has pro-
cured divorce for descrtion, one Of her
allegations being that he murmured an
other woman's name in the delirium of
his illness. If she had not procured the
divorce he would have done so and
desertion, at more critical time for
him, would have been his plea.
When seen in his attractive home Just
before his wedding, Fisk was practicing
on his violin, which he handles like an
adept.
''im all right now," he said, throw
inc his chest out and strutting around.
I'm as straight and agile as soldier"
Fisk was again a benedict two hours
later. The front room of the neat little
flat fairly glittered with presents.

\ Snake Her Birthmar,ll

Little Seraphina Sciaolna lies in one
of those tiny cots in the children's ward
at Bellevue, with that horrid snake
around her neck still. She is laughing
and bright-eyed. and doesn't seem 10
mind ii at ALL She wonders what every
body is looking at her so for, and when
strangers 90 in and shudder as they see
the hideous thing, she COOS and chuck
les merrily.
That snake is something that has
been pulling the doctors for ten days.
The little year-old was taken TO
the hospital from her home, at 43 Oak
street. with broken leg The mother
and father had thought it nothing
strange that snake should be coiled
around the little ones neck in that
threatening way. 1t looks brown and
scaly, and is raised about tenth
of an inch from the surface of
the skin. Doctor Getty has tried
to see if it couldn't be taken oil, but
none OF the Bellevue doctors thinks that
the experiment could be made with
success. The head of the snake is like
that Ola rattlesnake, and rests just be-
low the collar bone. The coils go
around the neck twice. The tail is un-
der the lobe of the right ear. The thing
is eighteen inches long.
The mother is thirty-one years old,
and came from Paladino, Italy. Sera-
phina is the second of three children.
The mother was married four years ago.
She says that when she was q girl her
father was boatman, and she used TO
help him unload fruit from his boat
One day great snake darted from
some fruit and coiled itself around her
arm. She went into mysteries. Ever
after that trightful visions of the snake
have haunted her. They appeared to
her nearly every night before Seraphina
was born. At the birth she had an aw
full vision, and she thought that the
snake had coled itself around her
baby's neck, and was trying to strangle
it. The birthmark has continued to
grow more distinct, instead of disap-
pearing, as the child's parents thought
it mighty. !. Recorder.
