The Horn road Survived.

Some boys in this city recently put
a rattle snake, a scorpion, a tarantula
and a horn toad in a big Chinese
stone jar, and let them fight. Tho
crowd bet on the rattle snake but they
were a long way Off. The inmates of
tho jar began to fight at once. The
snake grabbed the tarantula and
swallowed him. While he was doing
this tho scorpion began singing the
snake all " the body. He writhed
under the punishment while the sting
played up and down like lightning.
The snake swelled up, turning black
and died in about ten minutes. He
was very much pulled up and discol-
ored when he gave up the ghost and
his rattles ceased to play. Then the
scorpion attacked the horn toad, but
the little animal remained flat and
the sting could not penetrate his hide.
Suddenly he turned around and swal-
lowed the scorpion, thus becoming the
master OF the field.-Appeal.
