THE LUCK OF BRUTUS.

OF all the historical characters Of
dramatic literature none has more oc-
casion to be grateful than Brutus. Had
it pleased the fancy of the dramatist
to make him, instead Of Cassius, the
villain of the plot, the opportunity
would have been at hand. for he was
the basest migrate of the lot. 1t was as
il the arch conspirator in the plot of
assassination which made Abraham
Lincoln our martyr President had been
one of the young men especially be-
holden to Mr.. Lincoln for favors re-
ceived. say John Hay. our present am
bassador at the court of ST. James.
But for some reason. or for no reason,
except the poets fancy, II was the
good fortune OF Brutus to be made a
patriot, or semi-patriot. In all litera-
ture there Is no more striking instance
OF genuine good luck. 1t Is true Shake
speare followed Plutarch, but he was
under no dramatic necessity Of doing
so-Chicago Inter-Oeean.

ENDED.

From London it is officially an
nounced that the famine in India,
which is the greatest and most exten
sive which that Empire has undergone
since ITO, is now at an end. The
rainy has thus fan been both
sufficient and widespread enough for the
universal sowing of the tutumn crop
Perhaps the best proof Of the fact that
brighter times are at hand for India is
the fact that most Of the villagers have
abandoned the State relief works in or
der to till and SOW their lands. Mean
while the English government is GER
tainly doing more than can be expect
ed Of it, even by it's most ~censorious
critics, for after having fed at the ex-
pense OF the State several millions of
natives for a continuous period OF more
than six months, is now lending them
money on the security Of their future
crops, but without interest. in order to
facilitate their agricultural operations
and at the same time preserve them
from falling into the hands of that
chief curse of indian life, namely, the
village usuerer.-New York Tribune.

he was walking along in h edge OF

and suddenly he heard a strange noise,
and not paying much attention to the
noise, he proceeded, when ne had gone
only a short distance, to his great hor-

snake wrapped around his ankles and
flashing him ON the foot with its tall
Mr.. Reynolds say that he was so
scared at the time he hardly knew
what to do, but it was not long before
he liberated himself from the snake.
and then the snake ran of to a stump
near by and disappeared in a hole. Mr..
Reynolds says the ticks that the snake
made across his foot with its tail were
heavy, and if they had been on n
other part of his person would have
hurt very badly.-Harlem Farmers
