IN PEACE AND HARMONY.
Two Rats and n Snake Dwell To-
gether.

gether.
From the Louisville Courier Journal
Two rats and a rattlesnake are liv-
ing in peace and quiet in a cage at
Scribners Pharmacy, Sixth and Jeffer-
son streets.
For twenty-four hours they have
been together, and the rats have been
the only disturbing element. The snake
was captured in the country on Satur-
day morning. In the afternoon its cap
tor. a big, raw-boned countryman,
walked into the drug store and in a
casual way said he had something of
a curiosity in his butter basket. The
clerks noticed that the basket was
covered with a wire screen. but when
the cloth was removed and the fangs of
a snake darted between the opening
of the screen there was a stampede.
BE a little careful, he hasn't got
used to his new home yet" continued
the countryman.
few minutes later the reptile was
gliding around on the inside of a wire
cage. At first the snake didn't seem
to like its surroundings, and for half
hour it lay coiled up. Occasionally the
stiffness was broken by the noise of its
rafting. Then two rats were placed
with the snake.
instant DEATH" said one of the
clerks as he showed the rats in. For
the first few minutes both the snake
and the rats were apparently in mortal
fear. The snake coiled, warned the
rats by its rattle and prepared to
spring. Then the rats got into a fight
and the snake found the diversion so
amusing that it uncoiled and watched
the trouble between it's new friends.
Then. apparently all made up. In the
afternoon both the rats and the snake
were enjoying their new home. The
rats played leap-frog upon the reptiles
back and occasionally pecked at its
neck The snake is about two feet and
a half long and has five rattles.

The Savannah Typographical Union,
M 1888. through c. c. Pate, secretary,
and the Printing Pressman's and AS
sistants Union, No. 10, through John
NJ Russell, secretary, has addressed
rather a queer communication to May
or Myers, reversing the custom and
demanding protection from employees of
BRAID & Hutton. The letter, addressed
10 the Mayor, is as follows:
Dear Sir: Several employees of the
firm of Braid & Hutton are making
conspicuous exhibition of firearms upon
their persons. One of them has passed
headquarters of the Printers and
Pressmans Unions several times,
a verltable walking arsenal, no
doubt for the purpose of intimidation,
if not to incite riot. This person is one
of those arrested and deprived of con-
ceaed weapons the day before.
"Now, Mr.. Mayor, the parties for
whom this array of murderous
weapons and intimidation is intended
are citizens and taxpayers of this city
Their interests all lie here; they have
reared families and, some of them, ac
CURED humble homes here; they are
peaceaole, law-abiding and respected
in this community. The lives of these
men are manifestly jeopardized by the
appearance of these persons. In addi-
ton to their paraphernalia of weapons,
these persons are also accorded elabor-
ate police protection.
You are therefore asked by the two
subscribing unions if their members
will be accorded the protection of the
city police to and from their homes
and place of meeting, corner Brough
ton and Whitaker streets"
To this communication, the Mayor
replied:
Il am in receipt of your favor, and in
reply thereto, beg to state that the
police force of Savannah is for the
protection of all residents of the city
engaged in the pursuit of any lawful
aVocation, and for the suppression of
disorder. All persons in Savannah are
equally entitled to receive the protec-
ton of the police without discrlmina-
ton and without regard to their affil-
iatons with any organizations.
80 far as giving your members po-
lice guards to and from their homes,
it is needless for me to state that no
occasion exists for such service on the
part of the police. There is no prob
ability of any attack on you and, con-
sequently, no necessity for detailing
of policemen for such a purpose.
1T is reasonable to suppose that any
person in Savannah attending to his
business peacefully will be in no dan
ger of attacks from the employees of
any business house here"

STRANGELY. MARKED PIGEON.
Flew Aboard steamer In Far
Northern Waters.


From the Philadelphia Public Ledger.
Mail davices from Sweden say that
the Swedish consul at Archangel, Rus
STA, has telegraphed to the Swedish
minister of foreign affairs, under date
of July 25, that Capt Jorgesen, of the
steamer Resolute, reported that on July
II a carrier pigeon few aboard his ves-
sci. and was captured in latitude 65 de-
grees north and longitude degrees o
seconds east.
II had on its right leg a metal ring
marked Mid. 1S$9775." On its left leg
was a rubber ring described "l435."
The finding of this pigeon so far north
led to the suggestion that it might have
been set free by some Arctic explorer.
Rear Admiral Melville said tonight
that Lieut.. Peary had no pigeons with
him. and he did not think the bird had
been liberated by any Arctic explorer,
except, possibly, Mr. Baldwin, who has
lust started on his expedition. He
Thought it was probable that IL had
been liberated by some summer excur-
sion party.

not the only one-in which a son has
succeeded to his fathers seat as alder
man of the city of London. and subse-
quently. like his father, filled the Office
of Lord Mayor, is furnished by Sir
George Faudel Phillips. Sir George
was Lord Mayor in the year of Queen
Victoria's jubilee, and the way in which
he received her late Majesty at Temple
Bar, and subsequently, on horseback,
escorted her procession through the
city, has always been remembered. He
is greatly interested in philanthropic
work.

A Prisoner suicided.

Gainesville Tex. May Cd. e. Rob
erts aged AZ years, who was arrested
and placed in jail here last Wednesday
on nameless charge, committed sui
eide this morning at 1880 o'clock by
cutting his throat with razor. Ac-
cording to the general custom, razor
was furnished the prisoners this morn
ing to shave and after all in the cell
occupied by Roberts were through
with the task the instrument was CIV
en- him and after partially shaving
his face he deliberately cut his throat
from ear to ear The testimony by
those who witnessed 1t is that he took
the razor in his right hand and after
saying goodby to all slashed 1t across
his throat, severlng the jugular vein,
and then made another stroke which
completely severed the wind pipe. In
few seconds after he committed the
deed he made few steps toward and
fell dead without speaking word.
The deceased lived near Valley View
10 miles south of Gainesville, and was
an old. resident of Cooke County. A
letter was found in his vest pocket
stating the reason for which he killed
himself.
