WARSHIPS FOR HAVANA,
Not as Threat, But as a Preventive
of RIotOus Outbreaks.

Not as a Threat, But as Preventive
of RIotous Outbreaks.
Washington, Dec. 1.-THE Brooklyn,
Texas, Castine and Resolute have been
ordered to Havana. While there Is not
the faintest desire to convey threat
in the dispatch of these wars alps to
Havana, it may be noted that when
they lie within the harbor they will
hold the town in perfect subsection. 1t
Is surmised that the suggestion came
from Admiral Sampson, who is now in
one of the suburbs of Havana, as a
result of the unfortunate eruption on
Sunday night at the Hotel 1nglaterra.
At any rate the event brought the
authorities to a sudden realization Of
the exact state of affairs in Havana,
and the imminent danger Of another
such outbreak, which perhaps might
run into the proportions of riot and
cost many innocent lives. With only
small force Of American soldiers in
Havana province, and those removed
at such distance from the city as to
make it difficult OF access In time to
be Of service to the American element
in the city, now swollen to large pro-
portions by the advent OF many hum

TRAVELLING IN EUROPE,

The reason wealthy persons burden
themselves with such things 10 there 10 al
ways danger Of the larger baggage being
robbed In transfer. No one has ever been
able to keep strap on his or her trunks,
porters on the other side coolly removing
them under the very eyes Of the owner.
Great thefts have been committed In

dress, and hence the native, aware Of the
weakness Of these railway officials, carries
the tempting hand bag which In Its time
may also disappear.
But aside from these eccentricities and
also the bother Of paying for baggage by
weight, the wealthy man who has lived
abroad long enough to know the ropes

VHE fuss that is now being kicked up
about the Levy c urt Of Sussex county
which has a deficiency of over $50, 900, was
for years governed by the Democrats and
there was never q word said about all Of
this money being spent until the Repub.
licans had gotten control of the county
disbursements when all OF the Democratic
papers helped along by the Georgetown
Republican. set up howl that the Repub-
lican Levy Court had mismanagei the d.
nances and plunged the county in debt.

SNAKES AND NOTHING ELSE.
The Sole Product of LInkville,
Town In Oregon.

Ile sole frrSuct OF LinkVilles u
TGWn In Oregon.
Linkville, or Klamath Falls, il stu
nted in an ch7curc corner over the Cali
fornia border line in Oregon and may
be reached in 81 hours' travel from San
Francisco. You have only to tako the
northern bound train for Ager; thence a
stage line of about 20 miles conducts you
to your destination.
There is bridge in Linkville thatspnns
klamath river. From this bridge, which
is q vantage point as far as view Is con-
cerned, most extraordinary sight meets
tto Dyes. Along the river banks, at irreg-
u-r intervals of q few yards are seen
DIX balls ranging from q foot to three
feet in diameter. They are stationary and
Is passive as bOwldor. which they re.
somble in color. But If stone is hurled
ut any Of these strange spheres, to your
horror snakes will crawl Off In every di
rection, and the ball will melt away as
lard melts in a frying pan. Tho repulsive
creatures that have thus been coiled up in
perfect sphere glide away under rocks,
and one minute later not a snake Is to be
seen in that particular spot. But the other
balls Of snakes In the vicinity are little
disturbed by tho stone. A close irspeO-
ton will reveal only a moving head or
twitching tail in the mass that before
looked like an immovabe bow lder. Those
that were scattered. however, may later
seek the neighboring spheres or in a few
minutes stink out of their hiding places
and roassemblo themselves In balls.
Linkville is in a very barren district.
Nothing whatever grows upon tho rocky
soil, not even sagebrush. And so the
river banks, which are u mass Of drift
wood and rocks seam n BETTING place for
snakes. But it is surprising that they
should develop in such great numbers.
When not rolled in balls, they may be seen
slipping in and out among the rubbish,
and the ground for yards will be "a squirm-
ing, wriggling mass.
These snakes are perfectly harmless.
Indeed, II it were not for this fact, Link
vile would not be habitable, for, while
tho immediate neighborhood of tho river
Is their favorite haunt, they roam for
many hundreds of yards away and may be
seen along tho rondways and around tho
houses and creeping over the porches.
They possess marked degree Of tame
ness. You may pick them up with I'M
punity, and children play with them on
the doorsteps.
The Linkvllo snakes aro dark In color,
with two yellowish stripes on their backs.
The average size Is about | x inches in
diameter and yard in length, though
many are smaller, and some attain much
greater proportions. San Francisco
