Domestic Economy In Wong Seeks Tiny
Chinatown Iiome.
Tho smallest residence in San Fran
cisco is, of course, located in Chinatown.
1t is not, however, at the end of dark
alley in damp cellar. In many of these
are some very diminutive roosting
places, bat they are elegant homes and
flats compared to Wong Seeks private
residence on the corner Of Waverly place
and Clay street.
Wong's home is about as big as his
skin-a trife larger, Of course, to allow
for his wooden shoes that go to bed with
him, but the difference is not material.
Wong's home is box nailed TO a brick
wall over the fruit stand where Wong
makes a living that would not keep &
white baby fat
Directly opposite-that is to say, on
the southeast corner of Waverly place
and Clay street-there is another China
man who has a residence similar TO that
of Wong. But his is larger than Wong s
-whethcr owing to larger wooden shoes
or to just what is not known. But it
measures fully foot more in length and
is an inch or 50 more in thickness.
The Dimensions of Wongs private
residence-he lives in it all by himself
are feet in length feet in width,
with a ceiling height Of 3 feet clear Of
tho gas fixtures. For pillow Wong
has 80 cent oil stove, and in the morn
ing he cooks his breakfast on his pillow.
He uses a rope ladder to get into his
home, and when he has tucked himself
in for the night he pulls up his ladder
and is safe.
Wong is saving money and will some
day take tho steamer for China and cart
off 200 or 500 American gold dollars tC

THE BLACK SNAKE.
Hs IL AS Much AZ Home In Tree Tops n
on Terra Firma.

on Terra Firma.
There has been much discussion among
naturalists and in sportsmen's journals
regarding the ability Of the black snake,
our one constructor, to travel swiftly
ninid the branches. Ten thousand men
have seen the soak black streak Of rope
accomplish the leat easily. Here is but
ono incident:
The black snakes habitat includes Hi
nois. Lasalle county is not far north
Of the center Of the state, and perhaps a
little west Of the center line drawn
north and south There are some very
good woods in Lasalle county, because
through that county run two Of the
Mississippi's tributaries - the Illinois
and one of its branches, the Vermilion.
Bailey's creek is one Of the little farm
land tributaries of the Vermilion river.
Along the creek are reaches of woodland,
or at least there were awhile ago. IN
those bits Of woods-bits as compared
with Michigan forests-there are and
have been black snakes, great fellows,
worthy of their reputation farther east
This is what happened one day when
Young fellow went hunting 1t is worth
the telling because it illustrates the
black snake nim bleness among the tree
tops;
Wandering along cautiously and qui-
city, looking for a shot on either side,
the young man heard suddenly an I'M
common rustling among the leaves
above him. He looked up and saw some-
thing that astonished him. A fox squir-
rel-and a fox squirrel is the biggest Of
the squirrel kind--was leaping from
limb to limb, from tree to tree, in mortal
alright, evidently fleeing from some
deadly enemy. Close behind him, curv-
ing, twining and twisting, but with all
details of its locomotion invisible from
below, so swift its progress and so easy
its passing from limb 10 limb and tree
to tree, came three 10 FIVE feet Of black
ness. Ii was n black snake pursuing the
/ fox squirrel. It's chase was hopeless, but
the ability and the hungry earnestness
/ of this one constructor of our northern
woods were demonstrated remarkably.
As f5r the man underneath-well, no
was young fellow with shotgun.
/ The young fellow with shotgun is a
reasonably good shot in the country,
and he kills snakes. He poured a load
Of shot into that black streak among
tho branches, and it dropped to the
ground, merely foul, dead, moderately
sized specimen Of Boscanion constructor.
