PROPHECY CAME TRUE.
The Vindictive Snakes Bided Their Time
and Struck.

The yindictive Snakes Bided Their Time
and Struck.
The following incident is told in Mis-
sissippi, and, if no more, relates sim
gular coincidence, says the Galveston
News. A gentleman riding along
plantation path, followed by a negro on
a mule, struck a large cotton mouth
with his whip lash as it glided across
the road. AS soon as under cover and
out of reach of the whip the snake
raised it's head above the bushes, stand
ing almost upright on its tail, and
glared at him with flashing eyes, at the
same time kissing fiercely and exposing
it's fangs. "Yo' ort'n ter "a done dat,
Maws Joel" exclaimed the negro. why
not, Pomp?" lease dat snec'll lay fun
yo' sho, an sometime err nother'H hit
yo' back" "Pshaw, Pomp! l don't take
any stock in such nonsense. More like
ly he'll take care to keep out OF reach
of my whip. wish, though, l had
killed the BEAST" dat would "a bin
err sight wusser, Maws Joe; case de
mate would jes' foller tel hit cotch't
yo': an when err cotton moufs mate
hits, yo' goes dead powerful quick! =
"All nonsense, Pomp! There isn't any
mate, or, if there is, 1t doesn't know
more than other dumb creatures. A
man may be hit, of course, but not more
often by the mate of snake he has
killed than by some other that just
happens in striking distance" Well
least ways, Maws Joe," urged Pomp,
"yo'd better not happen erlong his par
any more dis year, 'ceptin' on boss
back" This good advice fell on heed
less ears. The next afternoon Maws
Joe followed the path on foot, probably
without any thought of what had oc-
Cured the day before, and when pass
ing the spot where he had dashed the
snake the day before he was struck at
{ the same instant by two large cotton
mouths, one from each side of the
path. He managed to get home, but
died soon after. The negroes in that
neighborhood, and many white people,
too, are firm believers in the cotton
mouths mate and it's vicious intelli-
gence.

Klondike Superstition.

The Klondike is rapidly becoming q
treasure field for romances as we'll as
for gold-diggers. The latest tale is Of
a ghost guarded mine on Bonanza
creek, whore, In 1896, while, standing
near the shaft, two partners had a
quarrel, during which one Of the men
was pushed into the pit and killed.
A few days afterward the survivor be-
came insane and died; he had seen his
partners spirit-had been haunted to
the death. Since then a number Of
bold miners have endeavored to work
the claim, but the unearthly shrieks
and demoniac noises have invariably
caused them to flee in terror. 1t is
hard work to rob the old-time miner Of
his belief in ghosts; nor does it take
much experience to fill the breast OF
the tenderfoot with similar regard for
the uncanny.

SHE WAS SITTING ON HIM.
Mother Had to Send Her Boy to Swear

Mother Had to Send Her Boy to Swear
Against Pa"
From the New Orleans Times-Demo-
crat: He was a mere STRIPPING OF
lad. He might have been seven years
Of age or he might have been nine.
Nobody couls,, tell by. looking at his
face. The only mark of certainty
about the youthful countenance was
the sure sign that some Of his arces-
tors had come from old Ireland. The
little fellow walked hastily into the
office of the warrant clerk Of Recorder
Finnegans court. He did not notice
the four persons standing In line, wait
ing to get affidavits made out against
some bothersome relatives, but the
youth pushed through the crowd and
disengaged the attention Of the clerk
with this odd demand:
II want to make an affidavit against
my pa" said he, and pushed his little
red head around the side Of the
desk.
you want what?" Queried the clerk
81 want to swear against pa" said
the boy again.
What has your pa done?"
HE has just been in prize fight
with ma"
well, why don't your ma swear
out the warrant against pa? My boy,
you are too young; you won't fill the
bill"
my ma can't come and she wanted
me to fix 1t up for her,"
why could she not Gomez" asked
the clerk, getting interested in the
youngsters story. He could not
imagine why the wife would not be
only too willing to swear out the war
rant
"My pa and ma they got in the fight
in the kitchen. That is how 1t hap
pened. My pa made drive for her,
didn't land, and then my ma she
grabbed up the rolling pin and floored
the old man. She Is now sitting on
him, holding him down, and that IL
why she couldn't come to swear
against him. She sent me-"

CHAPTER XXYI.-(Continued.)
"But, my lady, it was the keepers
who buried my husband-I think the
earl forgot him. We lived then in
little cottage-one belonging to the
earl; and, my lady, since my husbands
death, have lived there-1 do not
know why-rent free. Living there mas
been my livelihood. l have had nc
rent to pay; and every week l have
earned few shillings by taking in
washing for the people at Court Raven.
&c. my lady, the little cottage has, att
err fashion, kept me and my children.
But now a paper has come to say that
henceforth we must pay rent-four ana
sixpence each week-for the place; and,
my lady, if ! pay it, / shall not De
able to buy bread for my children to
eat"
but you shall not pay it" said the
young countess.
"Oh, my lady, bloss you! II you
would but speak to the earl for me-!
He is young, and he does not think
he does not know. If you would but
speak to him for me!'
81 promise to help you" said Lady
Caraven. Il will speak to the earl, my
husband; he will let you stay without
paying rent"
81 know he will-if he understands;
but, my lady, Mr.. Blantyre does as he
Hikes with the poor, and the earl knows
nothing about it. What could TOUR
shillings and sixpence week matter to
the earl? And my husband died to
save his birds"
81 will do all l can," said the coun-
tess; come and see me again in three
days time from now"
And Lady Caraven placed in the thin
hand that which made the widows
heart beat fast with joy.
