Snow Hoods for lnsu lators.

The thirty-one mile line Of the
KoOtenay Transmission Company In
British Columbia, says the Electrical
Engineer, consists Of two parallel and
duplicate pole lines, on one of which
the cross arms are roofeG over to pre-
vent the wet snow from piling upon
the cross arms AROUND the insulators,
which it does to the height of some
eighteen to twenty-four inches during
seasons when there is no wind.
The cross arms are two in number,
the upper one some eight feet in
length with four pins, and the lower
shorter, holding two pins. The upper
one is covered with cedar roofing
twenty-four inches wide, sloping
slightly downward from the pole each
way toward the ends of the cross
arm. The lower, Immediately below
it, is rooted to width of sixteen
inches. During the last winter service
was continued over both lines, even
when the exposed line had from ten to
twenty inches of snow on the cross
arms. If any leakage existed it was
impossible to detect it, so that the
roof appears to be quite an unneces-
sary precaution.

The Rev. A. w. Hobson, pastor Of

Partisan Affection for the Dog.

1t seems that there are at least 5000
persons in Paris who are determined
to make the canine pre-eminent. The
dog tailor asserts that for the most
part his clients belong to the highest
classes of society-people who can af-
ford to pay high prices and who pay
ready cash. The business Is, there
fore, very profitable one, because the
materials used do not cost much, and
can be sold Mt large profit. A bride
recently ordered, for example, gala
suits for her dogs to match the liver
les of the lackeys Of her household.
In a dogs wardrobe are found water
proofs for rainy days, dust cloaks for
journeys, a mantle for cold weather,
gray-lined suit for seaside wear, and
night robes of various weights. And
this Is not all. His delicate little feet
must be kept dry by boots, made to
measure, of leather of india rubber to
suit his particular temperament. This

with ivory combs and brushes. and
other important accessories. The mod

Snake a Remarkable Creature.

Snakes, however extraordinary 1t
may appear to say so, are the most
distinguished members of the whole
animal world. Their name alone Is
sufficient to strike with terror most Of
our sensitives of both sexes-even all
and any figurative meaning strictly ex-
Guided.
The snake Is certainly not creature
to be. loved, but it can please us and
we must admire the wonderful grace
of every one of its motions; the either
harmonious or strangely contrasting
coloring and the bizarre markings Of
it's skin, when we look at it with I'M
rreJudiced eyes.
Snakes seem to share the fate Of
many human being, whose promin-
ence in some way or other calls forth
great antagonism Of opinion and feel.
ing among the general public. They
have either enthusiastic patrons or
violent adversaries, though as far as
the reptile is concerned, the latter are
in disproportionate majority.
But there Is no creature on the whole
earth-except man-which holds such
a conspicuous place in religion, history.

ages as the snake.-Chicago Times

Burying a Rattlensnake Alive.

1t would not seem very easy thing
to bury a snake alive, but that Is what
traveller through Western Indian
Territory saw some prairie dogs doing.
The story Is told in Forest and Stream.
The traveller was resting under a
tree when he noticed commOtion
among some dogs near him. They
would run up to certain spot, peep
at something and then scamper back.
Looking more closely, he saw fifteen
or twenty dogs about a rattlesnake,
dogs holes.
No sooner had it disappeared than
the little fellows began to push in dirt.
evidently to fill up the hole. BY the
time they had pretty well covered the
entrance the snake stuck his head up
through the dirt, and every dog scam
pered off to n safe distance, all the
time barking.
The snake slowly crawled to another
hole about rod distant and went I'm.
Then forward came the dogs again,
and all went to work to push up earth
to the hole. This time they succeeded,
and completely covered the entrance.
This done they proceeded to beat the
earth down, using their noses to pound
with. When it was quite hard they
went away. The traveller examined
their work, and was surprised to find
that they had packed the earth solid
with their noses, and had sealed the
snake inside.

Hermits and Fiddlers.

OF all the many oddities, none seem
ed stranger to me than the fiddler and
hermit crabs, which are found almost

bottom Is free for him to travel over.

other. so large, indeed, that you won
der how the little fellow manages to
carry it about. Whether the crab is
at rest or travelling, the claws, big and
little, are held aloft, and this position
gives them the decidedly comical ap-
pearance Of fiddling.
All are fiddling. and all are, so to
speak, dancing for they keep moving
about on the sand, although far from
rhythmically. They look as If they
had nothing to do, but If you observe
carefully you will find that they are
picking up particles Of food. Some
times two crabs may be seen pulling
and hauling at the same scrap, and
they act much like pair of boys en-
gagged in tussle over a plaything. If
you wish to put the whole assemblage
to flight you will have to rush in, and
presto! the whole collection disappears
in manner to surprise the beholder.
Then we discover that there are thou
sands of little burrows in which these
diminutive crustaceans live on the
shore sands. At low water on the sea-
shore at Cedar Key have seen thou

walk over the strip there will not be

A WAY to Read the Newspaoers.

1t is easy, perhaps just, to criticize
the newspapers of the day, both for
what they do and for what they do
not contain. But there are few Of
them that do not have something
worth reading, and 1t Is commonly not
the light and frOthy matter which the
intelligent reader glances over before
breakfast or on the way to business.
But every one has odd moments, and
there are waits in the whirl Of the
wheels of industry, commerce, profess
siOnal occupation or study. A Chicago
man who has been interviewed by one
Of the newspapers Of that city, tells
how he utiliZes these odd moments:
81 glance over the headlines of the
morning paper at breakfast and on my
way down town in the car" he says,
reading only what Is of immediate
interest to me in my business. When
1 see an article on some matter of
general information, / clip it out and
put 1t in my pocket unread. One of
the pockets of my coat is given up to
these clippings.
"When / have to wait in dentists,
lawyers or doctors Office, or anywhere
else, l pull out one of my clippings
and read ii. In this way l have al
ways something to read in which am
really Interested"
This works a triple advantage to the
man who practices it. 1t prevents this
waiting time, which in n week may
amount to hours, from being wasted;
it stores the mind with a great deal
of information and the product of dis
cussion, and it prevents the vice Of
merely idle reading. 1t Is worth the
pains of everybody-or at least Of
everybody who has n place in his
clothes for one - to maintain clip
pings pocket, and to devote it rigidly
and exclusively to good articles from
the press.

Curious Calvary Clover Bud.

A most remarkable little plant,
which is exciting not little attention
among plant lovers, is the calvary
clover. Though generally supposed to
lie a native of Palestine, this pretty
and curious little plant will live and
grow freely in the somewhat smoky
atmosphere of Chicago.
Admirers Of this plant say that to
produce healthy and thriving plants II
is necessary to sow the seed on Good
Friday, while the more unimaginative
say that some time during the spring
will do just rs well.
When the little leaves of the calvary
clover first appear above ground each
division Of the leaf has deep red
spot like freshly split blood upon 1t,
which lasts for some weeks and finally
fades away.
The three leaflets composing each
leaf stand erect during the day in the
form of cross, with the head in posi-
ton and arms extended, but as the
sun begins to set and evening to draw
on the tiny arm leaflets are brought
together and the top leaflet, or head,
Is bowed over them.

+" Private " and /" Official"

Friends of the two remember the
quarrels that used to go on between
the late Sir Rowland Hill and Antho-
ny Trollope when they both were con-
nected with the post Office A discus
sion arose one day as to the meaning
OF official" language and private
language. "In official life" said Sir

ebedient servant, whereas in real life
you know very well am nothing OF

A PRIVILEGE" NO LONGER WANTED.
Curious Case Of Property Owner on the
Thames.

A very curious and interesting case
has been decided by the court Of APP
peal. The present owner Of Medmen-
ham Abbey and of the land on the op-
posite bank Of the Thames has been
saddled with the responsibility Of
maintaining ferry over the river, as
the result of an action which was be-
gun about year ago. The question
at issue was whether the ferry was an
ancient one, and so attached to the
manor that the lord could be compelled
to maintain it. AS everybody knows,
no questions are more obscure than
those Of ferries, rights of way and
commons, and we think that the pres
ent proprietor may be thankful even
though he has lost his case, that the
litigation has not been protracted for
years and years. We recollect a case
which arose out of an alleged ancient
right to dig gravel, which-the case.
not the right-began in 1S49,. and ran
with varying fortunes for the next 40
years, to the great profit of the law
yers and damage to the gravel. Our
system of real property is a fearful
and wonderful thing, and it might
happen to any of us to buy piece
of land and then find that the neigh
bors had rights of .piscary" in the
pond, 'turbary" in the lawn, and
'pannage"-which is the right to feed
hOgs-in the plantations.
The curious thing about the Med
menham case Is that the defendant
was trying to divest himself Of what
had no doubt been regarded as high
privilege. There is probably no origi-
nal grant of Medmenham Manor in ex-
istance, but there can hardly be any
question that the ferry was attached
to 1t, either when the grant was made
or at some subsequent period, as an
act of much favor to the owner. He
was given the right to levy tolls, and
we do not suppose 1t ever occurred to
those who arranged that little matter
that day would come when Medmen-
ham would have an owner who would
be only too happy to abandon the tolls
IL he could get rid of the obligation to
maintain the ferry.-London Globe.
