II have heard Of many men being

Captain Jenkins, "but one Of the most
peculiar situations that ever befell an
individual was assuredly that Of ON ig-
norant Mexican a good many years ago

town was 80 nearly destroyed by q trop.

the story many times, although it hap.
pened 80 long ago. It was during the
extreme height Of the cyclone. Houses
in Indianola were going to pieces like
x much paper, boats were being wreck
ed, and it looked decidedly bad for the
individuals who were located in ex-
posed portions Of the coast. It was
about this time that a little Mexican
settlement on one Of the coast islands
adjacent to Indianola began to 60 to
pieces, the water having risen over the
top of the sand dunes aud the waves
smashing the loosely constructed build
'ings of the settlement into kindling
wood. Jose Baretti, one of the inhabit-
ants Of tho settlement was separated
from tho remainder of His family ,, and,
clinging to o long plank. was driven in.
to the inner bay over the ruins Of tho
settlement.
when the day broke, he was out Of

cast his eye about in tho early dawn, to

the Mexican he began to writhe and
coil In al odd sort Of manner, aud ap-
parently to make attempts to reach the
poor fellow, whose hair was then stand
ing on end in a manner wonderful to
behold. The hours went by. The snake
kept up his antics, but for some reason
did not get any nearer tho Mexican.
The unfortunate fellow was afraid t.
leave the plank, knowing that no would
drown. and at the same time he was in
horrible fear Of meeting death in o more
terrific manner from snake bite. He lay
on the end of the plank with his eyes
fixed on the RATHER. In fact, they both
eyed each other, and this they kept up
until midday, when q fishing smack
came sailing along On the lookout fol
oastaways.

boat, and in q short time was hauled
on board more dead than alive. He
pointed weakly ut his kissing compan.

rattlesnake and found that no had jam

In the plank. The immersion of the
buttons Of the rattle in the salt water
had caused them to swell, and he was

FoRNIsT THE WEST.
The Levee Lobbyists Score q
Winning Before Congress.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 15-'fhe senate
committee on commerce today agreed
to the report of the sub committee ap-
pointed under the resolution of March
1897 to report upon the floods in the
Mississippi river, causes and their pre-
vention. The report was prepared by Sen
ator Nelson, chairman of the sub-com-
mittee. In regard to cutting timbers
at the headwaters of streams the COM
mi;tee says:
"Nothing in the evidence or other
data obtained by your committee dis
closes the fact that the destruction of
timber at or near the head-waters of
those river systems tends to cause or
promote the floods referred to-"
Thecommittee finds that no relief
from the floods by means of reservoirs
or new outlets is feasible, and that
hence only through properly construc-
ted levees can the proper relief be Sc
cured. The committee furnishes an
estimate CT the cost of completing a
levee system from the head of St.
Francis Basin to the head of the passes,
putting it at $l8,OO0,0OO to s2O,O0O,0O0
The committee says: "The commerce
of the Mississippi valley asks and is en-
titled to much deeper and broader
channel to the sea than is now afforded
by the South Pass" and suggests the
improvement of the southwest pass and
the use of both.

tanning 1900 people, 1000 members of

given a tremendous ovation by the

aThus far we have done our supreme
duty Shall we now, when the victory
won In war is written in the treaty of
peace and the civilized world applauds
and waits in expectation, turn timidly
away from the duties imposed upon the
country by its own great deeds' And
when the mists fade and we see with
clearer vision, may we not go forth re
joicing in the strength which has been
employed solely for humanity, and al
ways been tempered with justice and
mercy, confident of our ability to meet
the exigencies which await us because
confident our course is one of duty and
our cause that of right"
