ATTACKED BY COPPERHEADS IN
RED

Hagerstown, Md, July 19.--Walter
Drury, aged five years, son of Martin
Drury of Blair's Valley, was bitten by
copperhead snake ten times and died
from the effects of the poison. He was
in bed with his older brother, Ignatius.
They awoke in the night, and Walter
thought a mouse was biting him on the
foot. He called to his parents and they
came into the room with a light. A
snake wound itself around Walter and
sank it's fangs into his body ten times
until the child fell from pain and ex-
haustion. He was bitten twice on the
arm, twice on the stomach, once on the
breast, and on his feet and legs.
In the meantime Ignatius was bat
Ting with second copperhead snake
which crawled out of the covers. Ig-
natius was bitten twice once on the
hip and once on the arm. He shook off
the snake and leaped out of bed. Mrs
Drury, in going to the rescue of her
boys, stepped on the snake which had
bitten Ignatius, and the snake bit her
on the foot. Both snakes disappeared
through a hole in the floor, through
which doubtless they had crawled into
the house.
The body of Walter swelled to i'm
mense size almost Immediately and he
suffered intense pain. Mr. Drury rode
six miles for a physician, but when the
doctor arrived the lad was dying. The
physician was too late to save Walter,
but he gave Mrs. Drury and Ignatius
remedies to counterfeit the poisonous
bites, and both of them will recover.
The house in which Mr. Drury lives is
built at the foot of North Mountain,
and the boys slept in the basement to
keep cool. 1t is thought the snakes
crawled into the house from the noun

GIBSON'S LECTURES.
Ingenious Devices to Show the Marvels
of Botany.

Ingenious Devices to Show the Marvels
Of Botany.
w. Hamilton Gibson died just when
the newest development of his work
promised him fortune and widely ex-
tended fame. His lectures. says the
New York Sun, illustrated by his ex-
tremely ingenious devices, had a re-
markable popularity, and he was una
BILE to accept all the engagements Of
fered to him, although he made no eff
fort to advertise the lectures, and
thought seriously of cutting loose from
every lecture bureau His devices, by
means of which he illustrated in real
istic fashion the cross fertilization of
flowers and other miracles of botany,
were not only beautiful. but also re-
markedly ingenious, mechanically con-
sidered.
The problem presented was to repro
duce by means of many delicate me-
chanical devices the movements of in
sects as they went in and out of bios
SONS. the curious performances of au
tomobile blossoms. the flying pollen,
the shooting seeds, and a dozen like
things. Everything was represented
on vastly enlarged scale, so that a
blossom an eighth of an inch in dame
ter, fortified by d n almost microscopic
insect, could be represented in such
fashion that an assemblage of five hum
bred persons could see the process of
cross fertilization. A giant bee buzzed
into an enormous blossom; came out,
his head thickly coated with corn meal
pollen buzzed into another was me-
chemically held by some natural de-
vice, and emerged almost bare of pol
len, having left 1t behind,inthe blossom
that held him prisoner
Mr. Gibson contrived and made most
of the necessary mechanism for his de-
vices, and was constantly making and
patenting new ones. Needing a clock
work mechanism, he went to a maker
of such things described the thing
needed, and asked what 1t would cost.
The sum demanded seemed absurdly
large; so Mr., Gibson went home, took
apart useless old clock, and in an
hour made up exactly the thing he
needed The decoration of the devices
was done with great care, SO that they
| closely reproduced the flowers and in
sects they were intended to represent.
Once, after Mr.. Gibson had illustrated
his lecture with his devices before a
delighted assembly by member of tie
college town, he was approached by a
member of the college faculty, who
said II like what you are doing, but
have one criticism: You should not
descend to the device of illustrating
your lectures with these pretty things
| Scientific subjects should be illustrated

MI Gibson did not argue long with

Mr.. Gibson did not argue long with
the dry as-dust professor, but kept on
inventing new devices and presenting
| them to delighted audiences. He did
not pretend to enlighten the scientific
naturalist, but only to illustrate in a
popular way the marvels and beauties
of nature. His work was the result of
| much reading and patient observation.
He had been student of insect ways
from boyhood, and for most Of his life
had been familiar with butterflies, for
example, that OF any butterfly met by
chance in the field, he could at once tell
the aole story, and minute details Of
it's habits In all it's stages. Up to the
very day Of his death he was gathering
insects that were to furnish the mate
rial for an article he had planned on
the creatures that fly about the evening
! lamp in the latitude of his home.

CONNECTICUT VALLEY TOBACCO.

Report comes from the Connecticut
valley that the tobacco crop, this, sea-
son, is exceptionally fine. The harvest
of early planted and early-maturing
crops is now under way. In some in
stances cutting was begun in the last
days of July. Such an early beginning
of the harvest is extraordinary. The
crop has enjoyed conditions continu-
ously favoring its rapid and uninter-
rupted growth The rains helped il
along. While there are many fields
that will not be sufficiently matured
for cutting before the last week in Au-
gust. the prospect now is that the bulk
of the crop will be in the sheds by the
middle of the month.

Monterey. Cal. Aug. 10-The steam
ship st. Paul, which went ashore near

the hold is half filled with water The

A Little French Le..on.

For those who have no knowledge
whatever Of French the fashion maya
zines and tho menu cards of restaurants
bristle with difficulties. When the
strange words are yentured upon, it Is
with fear and trembling-which the re-
suit often justifies. The following is q
short list Of some Of the most used and
worst pronounced:
Chouz (shoo)-A small rosette.
Chic (sheek) is untranslatable, but
perhaps stylish" comes nearest 10 its
fashion book meaning. In its own home
the word is slang and considered vulgar.
French ladies do not say chic" any
more than we say "nobby (which
word is really its equivalent.
Peignoir (paynwr)-A wrapper as
fine as it can be made.
Saute do lit (so-de-leel being our
bath robe.
Cerise (sir-ease Cherry, hence the
name Of the color.
Bandeaux (bahn -do)-Braids Of hair.
Soutache (soo-tash BRAID for trim
ming.
Riz do veau cree de- vo)-Sweetbreads.
Bouillon (boo-yon Clear soup.
Menu (mur now)-A bill Of fare.
Roux (rOo)-A mixture Of butter and
-four, which. after being baked, is used
10 thicken sauces.
Saute (so-tay)-Lightly fried in but
ter.
Hors d'Guvres (hear d'urver)-Light
dishes as appetizers served after the
soup philadelphia Ledger.

The Magicians Of India

The magicians of India are clever
lot. For a rupee $50 cents they Will
furnish quite an entertainment. One
beats q drum aud acts as interlOcutor,
while there is generally small boy or
girl as assistant. A clever trick is per
formed by placing the small boy or girl
in basket, covering the opening. After
ramming sword in the basket from
the top and all sides, until one imagines
the youngster done to death, the basket
is opened and he is still there intact No
preparations are made beforehand. and
these cunning tricks are done on the
ground but five or ten feet away. In the
same way small bush is made to grow
under merely a cloth covering. Consid-
ering that the magician has no accesso'
ries, it is really wonderful
The last part Of the magician's pro-
gramme was no trick by any means. a
cocoanut was handed to me for inspec-
tion. II seemed sound and solid. After
a great deal Of drumming and hooting
to produce an excitement the cocoanut
was thrown into the air 90 feet. With a
loud yell the magician sprang under 1t,
when it descended and the cocoanut
burst to pieces on his head. The blow
staggered him AT first, but few approx
ing pats on the back by his comrades
and drink Of whisky soon Strengthened
him out. Nautch girls, accompanied by
one or two musicians, are frequently
seen dancing in the street, but their per-
formance is very slow and uninteresting.

EGGS AND FOODS.

January and February are cold
months. and variety of food will be
difficult TO obtain. 1t will be necessary,
however, 10 give the hens change o'
some kind. or they may lose appetite.
Even the addition of single article may
show good effects. \ head OF cabbage
will be highly relished in winter. Cab
bages are expensive at this season, but it
is not required to use them every day
Three times a week will be OF assistance
1t will pay to cook potatoes for the
hens. OF course il is laborious to cook
the food for large number OF hens
but IL can be done at least twice week
There will be an increase in the number
Of eggs which will encourage the farmer
TO repeat the experiment.
