Pasted Nearly Two Years.

Dr. Tanners famous fast of 40 days is thrown into the background as a starvation feat by the performances of the big anaconda atsthe Philadelphia geological gardens, which was only re- gently tempted to cat a nice fat rabbit after going hungry for 22 months. It may have been even longer. but the keepers have no record of the creatures doings previous to it's captivity, and so can't tell. It is not very unusual for a snake to abstain from food for several months, at the end cfswhich time death generally results, but the anaconda case is distinctly different from any other. It's fast lasted more than twice as long as any in the history of the "zoo," and during the whole of it's con tinuance there was no evidence of i'll health. The spell now seems to be en- tirely broken, and, the anaconda calls regularly for it's meals.

Reported Discovery Of Two Suicides-Big Bar.

REDONDO,July 23.-Some excitement
was created here last night by the re-
ported discovery of two suicides on the
beach. Marshal Maxey was informed
by two young people who were out en-
joying moonlight stroll that a man
and woman were lying dead under the
board walk near the new wharf. He at
first believed it joke, but the agitation
of the couple and their apparent earnest
ness convinced him, and he proceeded
to make an investigation.
AS reported. two bodies were lying
under the walk. They appeared to be a
man and woman. Closer inspection
revealed the fact that what looked like
woman's dress was only the coat of
one of the men thrown over his neither
limbs. Just as the marshal was about
to report the case to the coroner, he
heard the heavy breathing of one of
them. Making a closer examination,
he found them to be dead drunk. They
were not disturbed but wag from the
crowd that was attracted to the scene
pinned a large paper sign on the boards
above them bearing the following inscrip-
ton: mot dead, but only sleeping"
Special efforts are being made by the
