CAMEL'S EXPERIENCE.
Sat Down So Much That His Hind Legs
 Became Useless.

Became Useless.
 A large camel which was landed at Hoboken few days ago from the Bremen line steamer Dresden had an experience which probably never be- fore fell to the lot of "a ship of the des- ert."
 He made the voyage in large box, and as there wasn't room enough in it for any self-respecting animal the camel sat down in sheer disgust. He sat that way for days and days while the ship rolled and made all sorts of heavy weather.
 When the dejected animal was finally landed and tried to stand up, he couldn't use his rear props at all. They had be- come paralyzed from their long stay in a cramped position. The camel wasn't any good, it seemed, and as big price had been paid for him there was gen eral lamentation. The camel was ''in'' on the lamentation. Such a picture of woe was never seen in Hoboken.
 At last a genire -'lggested a radi- cal cure. The camel, by his advice. was placed in a sling and hoisted up until only his toes touched the ground. He padded the air for a spell with his forelegs, and finally the rear props came to life and joined in the exercise They lowered him to the floor, and after he had tested his rear legs some what gingerly, he was as good as new But he doesn't sit down any more Once was enough for him.

Was Built by the Romans and Is Still in
 Good Condition.
 The oldest house existing in Eng land is the Roman Pharos or lighthouse, which still forms so conspicuous an ob- ject on the cliffs within the precincts of Dover castle. The masonry of this interesting work is composed of tufa, cement and Roman bricks, or tiles, and is in the best style of Roman workman. ship. History and tradition are alike silent as to the actual date of it's erec- tion, but, judging from the style of masonry, and bearing in mind that the erection of such beacon would be a practical necessity when once the Ro- mans had thoroughly established them selves in southern Britain, one may fairly ascribe it to date not much later than the middle of the first century, A. D., following on the expedition of Clau- dius, and the succeeding conquests of Plautius, who brought most of the island south of the Thames under the Roman domination. To the upper part of this lighthouse was added in Tudor times an octagonal superstructure, still remaining, although in sadly bat tered condition. The remains of lake dwellings, such as have been found at Burton Mere, in Suffolk, and near Glas. tonbury, in Somerset, are supposed by some to date back so far as 1900 B. C.; but. although these are built on piles, they hardly come within the meaning of the question.

A GREAT SNAKE COLONY.
An Australian Enthusiast Has Fine Col
 lection of Venomous Reptiles.


 Mir. J. McGarvie Smith, an eminent bacteriologist of Sydney, Australia, is the proprietor of probably the greatest collection of snakes in the world, says the New York World. He is in the business partly for scientific purposes and partly for business. He advertised some time ago for 500 venom ous reptiles, but one publisher refused to permit the advertisement until he had satisfied himself of the sanity of the scientist.
 The different species of venomous snakes in Australia, so far as known, number AZ, and MT. Smith has speci- mems of all of them. The poison ex- tyacted from the reptiles is largely used il the Pasteur institute in Paris.
 MT. Smith is an enthusiast on the subject of snakes, and regards them as the most wonderful of living creatures. He has in his collection serpents that have gone nearly a year without food and are still fat. He has injected some of their own poison into them without the slightest ill-effects to them. As a result of his investigations he has estab- lished the fact that d non-poisonous snake is not affected in any way by the poison of the venomous species.
 "Why." said Smith, "it does not Kill one of it's own species while it is so fatal to other creatures is one of the myste- ries of the Almighty which we cannot unravel."

Ostentatious Parishioner.
 Concerning the celebrated Father Darcy, probably the greatest wit of that witty nation, Ireland, it is re- lated, says the Milwaukee Journal, that he once visited the palatial mansion of perfect specimen of the nouveaux riches who lived in the neighbo1 hood of Dublin at the invitation of it's pompous owner. He was shown all over the house, his host taking great pains, as is habitual in such cases, to keep the witty and observant priest well in- formed as to the cost of all the beauti full things he was shown. Finally, after making the complete tour of the chateau, the library was reached, its tremendous shelves grooming under the weight of thousands upon thousands of volumes, resplendent in the most magnificent bindings. Here they seat ed themselves, and the host said, with sigh of snobbish exultation:
 "Well, father, have brought you here last because this is my favorite room. The other rooms maybe give pleasure to my wife and my daughters, but this is my place-right here among these books, who are my friends. And these here on the desk (pointing to a score of ultra-looking volumes), are what I may call my intimate friends" "
 Father Darcy got up and examined one of them, when broad grin spread over his good-natured face, as he said:
 "Well, it's glad I am to see that you never cut your intimate friends"
