A Curious Incident.

A curious incident was brought to
light, near Peterborough, by the tele-
graph office. A London center found
that the insulation of principal wire
to the north was so imperfect as to
render it impossible to get a message
through. They wired up to Peter
borough, where the officials, on testing
for location, discovered that there was
a contact with the wires somewhere
between Clinton and Market Deeping,
a few miles north of Peterborough. A
telegraphic employe set out in haste,
upon his bicycle to remedy the defect,
and what was his surprise to discover
that big snake, coluber natrix, over
four feet in length, was hanging upon
the wires. With difficulty he removed
the reptile, which was quite dead, and
Immediately contact was disestablish-
ed and Insulation made complete.
From the time London wired the OBJ.
struction to the time of the defect be-
ing remedied, barely half an hour had
elapsed. 1t was assumed that some
lads had killed the reptile and, in a
mischievous mood, had thrown it up
on the wires.

No More Docking.

After years of discussion the Council
of the Royal Agricultural Society of
England has decided to discountenance
the docking of horses tails. The coun-
Gil has, of course, no legislative power,
but henceforward the classes of docked
horses which can be exhibited at the
societys shows will be limited. and
eventually horses in that condition
will be excluded entirely. The subject
is one upon which owners and lovers
OF horses are greatly at variance. One
side argues that the process Is cruel
and disfiguring. and that n dooked
horse is unable to wh.sk away the files
which annoy him when he Is out at
grass In the summer; while the other
declares that the doctored tail is more
elegant and adds to the value OF the
animal.

HIS "BRUTAL AND BLOODY"
Daniel O'Connells Remark About the
speech OF the Throne"

Daniel O'Connelrs Remark About the
speech of the Throne"
The first member of the reformed par
lament reproved by the chair for un-
seemly language was Daniel O'Connell,
the great Irish agitator. The incident,
which occurred in the first week of the
meeting of the house of commons. is
also remarkable for having evoked
from the speaker q definite ruling on
an interesting constitutional point. The
Speech from the Throne" called at
tention, among other things, to the
insecurity of life and property in Ire
land, and asked for coercive measures
for the repression of crime. In the
course OF the debate O'Connell charac-
terized the speech from The throne as
brutal and bloody" Lord John Rus
sell at once moved that the words be
taken down. "Ohw exclaimed O'Con-
nell, when we speak Of Ireland and
her wrongs it must be In bondsman's
key, with bated breath and whispering
humbleness' Lord John Russell OBJ
jected to the word "bloody" being ap-
piled to speech which had, only n
few days previously, been delivered by
the king-William IV.-in person in
the house of lords. O'Connell insisted
that 1t was not the speech of the king,
but the speech of the ministers. The
speaker agreed with the honorable and
learned member on the constitutional
point, but informed him that his Ian
guage was not calculated to preserve
order and decency of debate. The
"bloody and brutal wings" subsequent
ly became a popular phrase with o.
Connell in his speeches in Ireland, and.
indeed, is not unknown today in Irish
political controversies.-The Nine

THEORIES ABOUT THE MAINE"
Captain sigsbse's Talk With the Spanish
Admiral After the Explosion.

Nothing could be written in better
taste and temper than Captain Sigs-
bees personal Narrative of the
Maine," the third installment of which
appears in the January Century. 1.-The
Wrecking and the Inquiry" are the
special subjects of this concluding
paper. The captains personal rela-
tions with General BlancO and Admiral
Manterola were he says, undisturbed
by the explosion. They remained cor
dial to the last" Soon after the catas-
trophe the admiral called upon Cap-'
tain Sigsbee and conversation oc-
CURED which is tersely summarized in
these words:
THE admiral assumed from the first
that the explosion was from the in
terror of the vessel. He asked if the
dynamo boileNJ had not exploded. L
told him we had no dynamo boilers.
He said that the plans of the vessel,
as published, showed that the gun
cotton Store-rOOm, or magazine, was
forward near the zone of the explosion.
He was informed that these plans had
been changed, and that the guncotton
was slowed aft, under the captains
cabin, where the vessel was virtually
intact He pointed out that modern
gunpowders We're sometimes very un-
StaDle. InlS was met by the remark
that our powder was Of the old and
stable brown prismatic kind, and that
we had no fancy powder. He referred
to the probable presence of boilers,
lighted, near the forward coalbunkers,
which were adjacent to the magazines.
This again was met with the remark
that for three months no boiler in the
forward boiler compartment had been
lighted; that while in port the two
aftermost boilers in the ship had been
doing service"

informed, and at the lodge gate Edith
awaited me, and, with an excited ges-
lure, begged me to descend.

whispered, glad welcome sparkling in
her lovely eyes. I've thought You

"let us turn our thoughts to lighter

awkwardly, after a few minutes si-

just when the fun is coming on. Very

Helen, don't you think it would be

"Shall we ask her-eh?"-"If you
wish it, Paul"
IL don't wish it particularly, if
you don't, my dear" l answered rather
lamely, for her curt uninterested re-
plies put me out, though l scarcely
knew why. Il only thought it would
be neighborly act, and very little
trouble to us, as, of course, we must
attend all these festivities"
Then let us ask her."
You are the person to do that; she
would not come on my invitation. L
think, If you asked the general first
he's such a suspicious, crotchety old
fellow-it would be better"
I'll ask him tomorrow. Now, let
us go in, please; the air is quite chill
ly."
She kept her word, and the general
giving his consent, Edith came to us
on the following Thursday and to all
appearance my wife and she got on
most cordially together, so much so
that on the third or fourth day l ven
tured to question Edith's emphatic as
sertion in the cedar walk, but she only
shook her head.
mo, no, l am right; she does not
like me, and she never will. It's OF
no use my trying to make her. Hush,
hush, here she comes! Don't let her
see you speaking to me, Paul. and
with flurried, nervous movement that
saw naturally attracted my wife's at
tention and even brought faint color
to her cheek, Edith turned from me
and affected to be deeply interested in
a book.
In the beginning of the following
week l was unexpectedly called away
from home on business connected with
Edith's trouble. Helen drove me to
the station, and suddenly, when the
train was on the point of starting, i'm
plored me to take her with me-not TO
leave her behind -impressing on me
it was the first time we had been part
ed since We were married, and If l
loved her the least bit, to take her
with me now-"now."
