rose-apples, and only the chrysanthemdius
will bide awhile our ornament and CON-

Al Close Quarters with a Boa.

From the New Orleans Times Democrat.
THE boa constructor is fairly common
in the forests of western Nicaragua and
Costa Rica," said one of the canal engin-
GERS who was in the city recently" and
there are natives In that section who
hunt them exclusively for livelihood.
While we were engaged I'm the survey
work we heard good deal Of these big
snakes. and all the white men in the
party stood in the greatest dread Of them,
although they are not half so dangerous
as the small poisonous variety. During
two and a half years spent in the coun-
try / saw only one live boa, but the ex-
perience is pretty firmly stamped on my
memory, and / have no yearning for an
other. / had gone out, with a couple OF
native assistants. from town called Ia

TO shoot some plumage birds, and while
we were crossing q rather open piece OF
forest / noticed what | supposed to be a
peculiarly malformed limb on a large
spicewood tree. II sagged down from
the trunk of the tree. and seemed to be
attached to another growth nearer the
ground. ! started toward 1t to investi.

away, the thing / had taken to be a limb

that / couldn't have moved II the fate OF
the universe had depended upon IL, and !
simply stood there, stock still and staring
while the boa swayed back and forth a
few times and finally glided into the
foliage. II seemed fifty feet long, and as
big around as q barrel. l think IL was
really about twelve.
at that juncture my natives came up
and when they heard whst had happened
they at once insisted upon catching the
monster. They made moose, which they
attached to q pole, and while ] retired Ia
n safe distance, one OF them climbed the
tree and seized the snake by the tail
while the other tried to slip the loop over
it's neck as II lowered It's head. 1t was
too agile for them, however. and escaped
into another tree. where II went too high

ROBBERS L6OK LIKE TREES.
Adroit Means by Which Indian BAN
dts Escape Their Pursuers.


From the London Express.
Some of 1.-The Indian Tribes over which
we rule give us~a great deal of trouble,
notably the Mahsuds, though it is pleas
ing to learn from a recent Bombay tele-
gram that they are at last being
brought to something like order and are
paying the fine lately imposed upon them
as we'll as agreeing 20 cease their raids,
The Mahsuds, however, are not by any
means the worst of the Indian robber
tribes that unenviable distinction prob
ably falling to the Bills, who are the
cleverest scoundrels in the world, both
in their methods of acquiring other peo-
pies property and in evading pursuit.
They are very proud of their skill in
differing and openly boast of it. One OF
them once told a British officer that he
could steal the blanket from under him
and was promptly challenged to show his
ability! That night, when the officer was
fast asleep, the Bhil robber cut a hole
in his tent, crept noiselessly in and gent
ly tickled the hands and feet of the
sleeping man. The officer stirred uneasi-
" and turned over. In this way the Bhil
was able to pull the blanket out a little
way. BY repeating this performance he
finally succeeded in coaxing the blanket
completely from under the sleeper.
When engaged in his nefarious little
games the Bill wears hardly any cloth
ing and his little body is rubbed with oil
to facilitate escape from any would-be
captors. When holly pursued by the Brit
ish troops the robbers make use of a
very clever device. They conceal their
scant clothing under their small round
shields and scatter them about to re-
semble stones or powders. Then, pick
ing up few twigs-if there are any to
be had-they assume all sorts of gro
tesque attitudes their almost heshless
limbs silhoutetted against the dark night
sky closely resembling the charred limbs
of a tree. Absolutely motionless they
hold their position till the enemy has
passed them
In this way a British subaltern in
charge of a party sent to capture some
Bhils was considerably startled one even
ing. The pursuit had completely lost sight
of the robbers and finally the party drew
rein by a clump Of gnarled and bent tree
trunks, tired and hot from their hard ex-
ertions. The officer in charge took off his
hat and placed it on the end of 4 broken
limb, when instantly there was wild
scream of laughter and the tree trunks
suddenly came to life and vanished in
the darkness.

HAVE FOUND THE JAP.

After considerable skirmishing about
by the sheriff's office and the police
department, in the attempt to locate
the Jap who is accused of an attempt
ed assault upon a young girl in Kalis-
pell, the offender has at last been To-
Gated and apprehended. The arrest
was made this morning by the girls
father who picked the Jap out of a
bunch at company boarding house
today, and turned him over to the
sheriff. The Japs name is Mache
and he seems to be very uneasy since
his arrest. The girls father brought
her down to identify her assailant
which she did without hesitation.
Shortly after Mache was arrested an
agent of the Oriental company went
down to the Jail to see what he could
do for him, simply stating that he
knew the man, and that he had been
in their employ. The hearing has not
yet been set, but will probably not
occur for a day or two.
The charge against the Jap will be
attempted assault.

HORSES TRAMPED HIS GARDEN.
And Mr. Chapman Was Excused by a
Jury for Having Burnt Them
With Chot

With Shot.
About two weeks ago Mr.. L. j.
Chapman was SO bothered by horses
and range animals breaking into his
garden and shrubbery that he deter
mined to warm the next outlaws with
load of bird shot. The next tres
passers were given the benefit of the
dose, but Mr.. Chapman noted with
regret that they were a neighbours
team and as soon as possible he sent
word that he had scattered som shot
in their hides but that he was pre-
pared to settle all damages. Mr..
Brennan, to whom the horses belong
ed, declined to make any settlement
with the elder Mr.. Chapman, or with
the sons, here in Kalispell, and after
waiting for about ten days made a
complaint against Mr.. Chapman on
the charge of cruelty to animals. The
case was set for yesterday afternoon,
Mr.. Chapman being released upon his
own recognizance. Grant Swaney
was Mr.. Chapman's lawyer and R.
L. Oliver for the state was assisted
by the complaining witness. The case
was tried in Judge Sullivan's court
with a jury. The only important tes-
timony was that given by Mr.. Chap
man. who stated the circumstances
under which he had shotted the horses
and subsequent endeavors he had
made to settle out of court. Some
other testimony as to the damage
done the animal in question was given
by a horse doctor. The case was
argued and skillfully presented to the
jury by Mr.. Swaney, Mr.. Oliver for
the state having mighty little to say.
A verdict was reached by the jury
within two minutes, unanimous &C.
Quittal.
The jury which acquitted Mr.. Chap
man was composed of representative
citizens, viz: R. N. Eaton, w. F..
Thompson, Philip Jacoby, G. H.
Smithers, A. Klengensmith and J. A.
Bachant.
A complaint based on the same
charge was made against Mr.. Chap
man last night, but the county attor-
ney declined to prosecute and the
case was dismissed.
