Amid the conflicting reports which come from Cuba one fact stands out plainly-the insurgents are holding their owp. Despite the stories from Havana and Madrid of Spanish successes and of Spanish confidence, Weyler's forces are making no headway. The number of murders and other outrages by his men keeps up to its old figure, but those men dare not venture very far from the Havana district. With less than quarter and probably less than ali eighth of Weyler's forces, Gomez and the other Cuban commanders hold possession of a large part of the island. Under these circumstances the Insurgents can give good reasons for the faith in ultimate independence that IS in them.-Ex.

THE BLACK SNAKE.

ae F8 as Much at Home In Tree Tops as
 on Terra Eirma.
 There has been much disoussiop among natnralists and in sportsmen' s journals regarding tho ability of the black snake, our one constructor, to travel swiftly amid the branches. Ten thousand men have seen the sleek black streak of rope accomplish the feat easily. Here is but one incident:
 The black snake' habitat includes Illi- nois. Lasalle county is not far north of the center of tho state, and perhaps q 1little west of the center line drawn north and south. There arc some very good woods in L9salle county, because through that county run two of tho Mississippi's tributaries - the Illinois and one of it's branches, the Vermilion. Bai1eyis creek is one of the little farm land tributaries of the Vermilion river Along tho creek 5,re reaches of woodland. or at least there were awhile ago. In those bits of woods--bits as compared with Michigan fofests-there are and have been black snakes, great fellows, worthy of their reputation farther east. This is what happened one day when q young fellow went hunting. It is worth the telling, because it illustrates the black snakes nimbleness among the treo tops
 Wandering along cautiously and qui- etly, looking for shot on either side, tho young man heard suddenly an un- common rustling among the leaves above him. flo looked up and saw some- thing that astonished him. A fox squir- rel--and 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, curve ing, twining and twisting, but with all details of it's looomotion invisible from below, so swift it's progress and so easy it's passing from limb to limb and tree to tree, came three to five feet of black ness. It was black snake pursuing the fox squirrel It's chase was hopeless, bus the ability and the hungry earnestness of this one constructor of our northern woods were demonstrated remarkably. As for tho man nderneath-well, he was q young fellow with shotgun. The young fellow with shotgun is a reasonably good shot in the country, and he kills snakes. He poured q load Of shot into that black streak among the branches, and it dropped to the ground, merely foul, dead, moderately sized specimen Of Boscanlon constriatnr --T<acr.ss.7st...

Watch vs. Locomotive.

Very few of the millions of people who carry watches realize to what a wonderful extent fabrication is devel- oped and what an extraordinary num- Der of turns the balance wheel makes with one oiling. A Chestnut street watchmaker, whose knowledge of these wonderful pieces of mechanism is not exceeded by any man in this city, has made up an interesting table of com parison to show the perfection of luDri- cation in a watch.
 A watch will run on one oiling from a year to a year and a half. Every minute the balance wheel turns on its axis 45O times, and 27,O00 times in an hour. Accepting the year as the time the ordinary watch will run with one oiling he finds that If the driver of a locomotive was as we'll oiled as the bal ance wheel of a watch it ought to run sixty miles an hour day and night for GAS days, or we'll on to two years with one oiling. In that time 1t would tra- verse a distance equal to nearly four times the circumference of the earth.
 In view of the fact that in reality few locomotives will run one day without reOiling, he maintains that the watch maker has developed his art to a far greater degree than the locomotive builder has yet been able to reach.- Philadelphia Record.

A Terrible Heredity.

A special study of hereditary drunk enness has been made by Prof. Pell- mann of Bonn University, Germany. His method was to take certain indi- vidual cases, a generation or two back. He thus traced the careers of children, grandchildren and great t-grandchildren in all parts of the present German en- pire until he was able to present tabu- lated biographies of the hundreds de scended from some original drunkard. Notable among the persons described by Prof. Pellmann is Frau Ida Jurka. who was born in 1740, and was a drunk. ard, thief and tramp for the last forty years of her life, which ended in 1900. Her descendants numbered S34 of whom 7O9 were traced in local rec ords from youth to death. One hun dred and six of the 709 were born out of wedlock. There were IA beggars and G. more who lived from charity Of the women, 1S1 led disreputable lives. There were in this family 76 convicts, of whom were sentenced for murder. In a period of some sev. enty-fve years this one family rolled up bill of costs in almhouses. prisons and correctional institutions amounting to Bt least 100000 marks, or about S1, ,2J0 00O.-Me edical Record.
