A SNAKE THIEF.
How q Reptile Stole the Milk nom q
Fine Jersey Cow.

How q Reptile Stole the Milk nom Q
Fine Jersey Cow.
W. L. Hewey, living up in the Cross
Lake country, has a fine Jersey COW,
which usually keeps the family sup
piled with an abundance of milk, says
a Shreveport Ga.) paper. On Monday
last Hewey noticed a falling off in the
milk supply and for every day there
after there has been a steady diminu-
ton. Thinking that perhaps the pas
turage did not furnish sufficient nour-
ishment for the cow, Hewey began to
give her an extra quantity of food at
night, but in vain. Every evening she
returned to the pen with an empty bag.
At last Hewey came to the conclusion
that some negro in the neighborhood
must be in the habit of milking the
COW before she left the pasture; so he
set about discovering the guilty party.
Yesterday his Investigations were re-
warded, the thief proving to be a singu-
lar one, indeed. In the middle Of the
afternoon Hewey went into the pas
ture, taking his stand behind a big oak
tree whence he could keep an eye on
the cow without being himself OBJ
served. For a long time there seemed
no chance of solving the mystery, as no
n appeared in the pasture. Finally
Hewey was about to give up the search
as a bad job, and drive the COW to the
pen, when he saw a big black-and-
white-pied snake glide out from the
thicket behind him and make it's way
across the pasture to the Jersey. Fol-
lowing after as rapidly as he could,
what was his establishment to behold
the snake wrap itself around the Jer-
sey's hind legs, holding them hard and
fast, and then grasp hold of the bag,
sucking away at the teats like a hun
cry calf. Hewey is a new man to this
section, and this singular conduct on
the part of a reptile surprised him be-
yond measure. Since consulting with
his neighbors, however, he has ascer-
tanned that the snake, called a Cow
sucker" is a very common variety,
causing much loss among cattle-raisers
and milk men in this section.

A Glass,

The announcement made recently of
a German method of producing glass
which will transmit light freely, but
no heat, is founded upon the following
statement of details, presumably from
the source of operations: A plate of
this material, one-fourteenth of an inch
thick, containing IS per cent of iron
in the form described as ferrous chic
ride. allowed only 4.6 per cent of radi-
ant heat to pass through it, while an
other plate of equal thickness, and
containing quite as much iron as ferric
chloride. permitted liz to pass. The
chemical distinction is exceedingly
small, but the effect is very marked.
Using oxide instead of chloride, and
again having it in a ferrous condition,

faint blue tinge, but even more imper-
vious to heat than the other sample.

Cutting DOES Ears.

1t was probably first introduced when
bulldog fighting became a fashionable
amusement, and the earfiaps were al
most totally removed to prevent them
from being torn and mangled by con-
tending dogs-for the same reason, in
fact, as was the combs of fighting
cocks and the hair cropped close from
the heads of pugilists. But this dis
creditable pastime is now abolished; SO
there is n % occasion for ear cropping,
even in the case of bulldogs, and GER
tainly nc valid excuse can be offered
for this exhibition of depraved taste
with regard to other breeds of dogs,
and especially terriers-animals which,
as their name implies, have need for
the pendulous ear to guard the en-
trance to the auditory canal while bur-
rowing.

work. If a pauper who is able to work
refuses to do SO, they put him in a els

turn on a stream of water. This
