Special Bulletin Issued,

The weather bureau has issued a special
bulletin on the subject of the cold wave
1t is interesting to know how the wave ar
rived. During the days of cloudiness and
snow the barometric pressure here was
low. AS the storm moved away yesterday
up the Atlantic coast it opened place for
the winds from the west, and in they came
with a rush, bringing the temperature ex-
perienced and needing no comment In Its
bulletin the bureau says:
Morning advices show that freezing
temperature occurred In Florida last night
as far south as line traced from a point
a little south of Tampa to the Atlantic
coast just north of Jupiter, Tampa showing
a minimum temperature of 30 degrees and
Jupiter minimum of SO degrees. At Jack
sonville minimum of 2S degrees was
reached.
These temperatures were very accurate
ly torecasted Wednesday morning, when
the weather bureau at WASHINGTON teie-
graphed the following special forecast and
warning, which was distributed by its
Florida stations to all fruit-growing. aeri-

Sengers at g. Railroad
Station.

A man sat in the Reading terminal
the other day, says the Philadelphia
Record, so wrapped up in Boston
newspaper that he let his train slip Off
without him. When he found that be
would have to wait two more hours he
seemed annoyed, but, notwithstanding
his annoyance, he was kind enough to
explain in a loud voice to a couple Of
uniformed officials how they ought to
run things at the terminal
"1ou ought to do as We do in Bos-
TOM he said. At the stations there the
names Of the cities and towns all over
the country that the trains run to are
printed in big letters on the wall, and
the seats for the waiting passengers are
grouped around these names. Suppose
l want to go to Washington. I run my
eye over the walls, and when T find the
name I'm after I sit down near it in a
Washington seat. Then when a train
is ready the enunciator, as we call him
in Boston-I don't know what you call
him here-goes quietly to the people
who are in that trains seat, touches
them Oh the shoulder and murlnurs in
a polite way: Your train, SIR Your
train, madam. Gate H. Now, that's the
way to do it. No shouting, no confu-
sion, no trains escaping without their
passengers. That's how we manage
things in Boston,"

DOG IN A DIVORCE COURT.
Sharp-Scented Bloodhound ut
Bucharest Picks Up a Dit of
Damaging Evidence.

certain well-known inhabitant of
Bucharest is the director of a manufac-
tory which, being situated on the out
skirts of the. city, he goes to early each
morning, returning late in the after
noon.
The director was some few years ago
married to the daughter of a rich mer-
chant. He also possesses a splendid
bloodhound, which had become very
clever in finding and bringing any lost
object of his master or mistress.
Little did the director, when teaching
his dog tAe trick, fancy TO what pur-
pose he was doing it.
Among his intimate friends he reck-
oned a certain banker, and visiting him
one afternoon, accompanied By his dog,
he noticed it sniff around the waste
paper basket and then bring out from
among the scraps of paper green silk
handkerchief, which seemed strangely
familiar to him. He seized it and peck
eted it, without the banker noticing,
and soon after took his leave
The lady was packed off to her par
ents and proceedings for a divorce COM
menced. She ultimately confessed to
having given the handkerchief as
me1nento, which the banker had thrown
into his waste paper basket to be found
by the intelligent bloodhound.

THE DOUBLE EAGLE.
As 1t Appears In the Arms of Russia
and Austria Is of Ancient
Origin.

The eagle, as an emblem of authority,
is so old that it would he impossible to
clearly trace it's origin. 1t is found
upon the most ancient sculptures that
have yet been discovered, and was no
doubt one of the very oldest of the
totems, or tribe signs. The early Per
sian empire appears to be the. first
which adopted it as an imperial en-
blem. Among the Greeks the eagle was
the emblem of Jove. The Romans also
adopted the eagle as their standard,
and SO it became, the token of Roman do
minion. When Constantine became en-
peror he adopted the double-headed
eagle as the insignia of his authority
over east and west. When the German
empire came into being in the twelfth
century this emblem was revived as be-
ing that of the Holy Roman empire, and
Rudolph of Hapsburg adopted it. as his
imperial arms. It appeared the Rus
sian imperial arms in the sixteenth CEN
fury, when Car Ivan, Basilovitch mar
ried Princess Sophia, niece of the elev-
enth Constantine, and the last Of the
Byzantine emperors. .-.,-

SIXTY-FIVE SNAKES.

er Wriggler.

Prof. W. H. Gaar, superintendent of
the schools at New Lisbon a small town
in Indiana, made remarkable discov-
cry in natural history a few days ago.
Prof. Gaar is a naturalist of recognized
standing and has many specimens of
rare animals and plants preserved in
his museum, but the specimen snake
just secured is the most interesting and
curious of all this collection, reports
local exchange.
Prof. Gaar tells the story of his cap
ure-and his statement is corroborated
by Frederick Dryer and John Boyer,
farmers, who witnessed the capture.
Following is Prof. Gaar's story: ''The
other day at my nursery killed slate
colored snake about 80 inches long, OF
a variety unknown to me. Near the
neck of the snake the skin was appar-
emily broken, and through this aper-
ture, which was a natural orifice, was
surprised to see a small snake wriggle
out, followed by four others. I enlarged
the orifice and discovered a duct or
canal extending the entire length of the
snake. In this duct were 60 more little
snakes, making in all 65 snakes that
were contained in the duct or canal
The sun was shining hot and the little
fellows snapped and bit viciously, but
they all died in a short time.
"The canal which contained the
snakes must have been the regular ali
mentary canal, as there was no other
canal Or passage in the body to serve
the purposes of assimilation. This
canal was full of little snakes it's entire
length, and each little wriggler was in
closed in an individual flmy SACK
