Of winter lay on meadows, moor and hill,
A blue bird at my eastern easement sang
Till all the place with silvery music rang.

For on the morrow fed the cold and snow
And maple buds possessed redder glow.

Teddy shook his head and walked to

take.
Mr.. Hirsch removed the marble and
discovered that II was q very beautiful
pearl n little less than one-third OF an
Inch In diameter, 1t was a pale blue
speck as big as the head Of a PIN.
The proprietor offered Mr.. Hirsch 325

was refused. The pearl was exhibited
In the Excise Board rooms to-day and
was said by. good Judges to be worth
several hundred dollars. Mr.. Hirsch
will send II to Tirany's to be set, and
that is why he Ii several inches taller

MAGOWAN HAS LEFT TOWN.
Principals an the Trenton Scandal
Shun Further Publicity.

TRENTON, N. j.. Aug. a. There are
not likely to be new developments at
present in the BarnesMagowan scandal.
as the principals are out of town. The
scandal continues to be the main topic
discussed in political and social circles
In New Jersey.
Mr.. Barnes's large circle of friends
are firm in the belief that he has taken
the proper course in invoking the law
against exMayor Mcgowan and bring
ing suit against his wife for divorce.
Mrs Barnes is criticised for resorting
to the Western laws to obtain divorce
from her husband, when she could have
brought suit in the State of New Jersey
where she resided Her doing this has
caused many to think she had a motive
in keeping her suit from the New Jersey
courts.
Mcgowan is also criticised for having
gone to Oklohoma for the purpose. as
alleged, of fling an application for a
divorce from his wife.
Much sympathy Is expressed here for
Mrs Mcgowan and her children. She
belongs to one of the oldest and most
respectable families In New, Jersey
She and the children are still at the
Mcgowan will not talk for publication
There IS much speculation as to
whether she will begin legal proceed
ings. Her friends in Trenton do not
believe she will sue for divorce unless
she has positive evidence against her
husband.

band from her.
Three weeks ago the husband left. and

Snakes as Pets.

As pet, the snake becomes very tame, readily distinguishing its friends from strangers. It will go to the former, and coil itself up in their hands to enjoy the warmth, or will crawl up their coat sleeves and lie there until disturbed. It is fond, too, of being rubbed gently under its chin. It has no means of offense, and only two ways of defending itself. The most singular of these is the power it has of discharging from pair of small glands in the lower part of the body an abominable, penetrating, clinging odor When irritated or alarmed, it generally resorts to this means of de- fense, and no one who has experienced it is likely to forget it. We used to Seep several snakes in case in our bedroom, and on one occasion, when showing them to friend, threw one of them on the bed. Becoming alarmed, it hurried away under the blankets, giving veAt to its feelings meanwhile n such a way that it was almost i'm possible to stay in the room all night, even with door and windows wide open. Then, too, the snake is able to erect its scales, pressing them so tightly against the sides of any hole .nto which it may have crcpt that it is next to impossible to pull it out tail first without injuring it.-Chambers' Journal.
