A SNAKE FIGHT.

Followed by Feast.
(Chambers's JournalD


It was I'm Australia. and in the fan Of
the year. My friend and 1 were returning
from tour which had carried MS far
into tho bush as the forests of gum trees
and scrub are there called. We were
walking through a clearing when the
unmistakable rattle OF IA snake arrested
Us. and In few minutes We saw the be-
ginning Of fierce encounter between
two deadly enemics-a blacksnake and
rattle. These two branches OF the snake
family are hereditary and implc1ble
foes. though what was the origin of the
feud Darwin saith not Between them
there can be neither fellowship, amity,
compromise. nor even armed neutrality.
War 10 the death is their unaIteraule
law from generation 10 generation. The
blacksnake is much smaller than the
rattle. but he is a terribly formid-

the rattle) from affair."" and gives himself
no rest until he gains a point Of vantage
from which he can make "a sudden swoop

did not see the blacksnake until he leap

afterward make out how he had got So
near without being seen. That power "
silent, stealthy, rapid movement gives the
black fellow an immense advantage over
the rafting enemy. IL is that, indeed, on
which his hope Of victory mainly de-

In this instance 40 such misfortune was

MODES OF EXECUTION
THE VARIOUS METHODS USED FOR
CAPITAL PUNISHMENT.
DEATH HELMET OF FRANCE.
An Appliance Which fterces the
Brain of the Criminal with Flee
t&rians 20 he Very Cruel.
CFor the Dispatch.)

PARIS, August 20.-The voice Of the
humanitarian is being raised just now
in indignant appeal against the new mode
of execution that Frenchmen propose 10
adopt in place OF the swift-kilHng and
merciful guilloune The new method con-
sists in getting rid OF murderers by pierre
ing their brains with a needle,
sufficiently awful death il would seem at
first sight 10 justify some protest. The
criminal is placed in a chair. his hands
firmly bound 10 the framework, and over
his head, fitting down on the shoulders,
is placed a huge helmet, resembling in
shape and general appearance, the helmet
that the doep-sea diver wears. Where the
temples of the wearer come are two
holes, through which penetrate the points
OF needles, these needles being connected
vita an electric battery. When the con-
demned mans limit Of life has been
reached the eXecuuoner touches a button.
Instantly the two reodles leap from their
sockets and penetrate through the temples
into the brain of the criminal. At
the same time an electric power is i'm
parted 20 the two needles so that they
are really the cOnYeyOrs of powerful al

No man executed by this means will

or brutality OF the latest method Of kill
