Sea ssrpents Exist.

At the mere mention Of the sea ser
pcnt the average shore abiding person
smiles Dlacently; those stories
have long ago been placed in their
proper class OF sailors yarns. he
thinks. But sea serpents do exist, and
by the million. A snake does not
necessarily need TO be a mile long to
a serpent; the ordinary rattlesnake
and the dangerous cobra belong to the
family Of serpents, and their average
length is three or four feet. To this
same class belongs the sea serpent Of
the China sea, the Indian ocean and
the Boy of Bengal.
These serpents are sometimes found
in schools hundreds of miles from
land. They are seldom seen by the
passengers on steamers, as the pound
ing Of the screw frightens them away
long befoHe the vessel can come with
in sight but the seamen of sailing
ships are privileged to see these ma
Yine reptiles even more than they de-
sire, sometimes. Slipping leisurely
over the calm, oily water Of the Bay of
Bengal, where fresh breezes are rare,
the nOiseless sailing vessels often glide
into large schools of sea snakes sun
ming themselves on the surface of the
water. They average about four or
five feet in length, and are colored as
brilliantly as are most tropical crear
tures-green, red, yellow, orange, pur-
pie and blue.
Sitting on the jibboom of mis- YES
sci, the sailor sees them about him
and under him by the thousands,
squirning lazily about until the loom
Of the ship frightens them, when with
a whip of their tails, they shoot out Of
sight under the water.
II must not be supposed that these
creatures are in any manner akin to
the col, for captured specimens show
no signs of gills, or Fms, common to
all species Of eel. Moreover, they are
able to creep over anything solid. 1t
Is no uncommon thing for men on
board the big English East Indiamen,
trading regularly in those waters, to
have unpleasantly close experiences
with Indian ocean snakes. II some
times happens that ropes are left
dangling over the ships side at night
when the sea is calm and the vessels
headway is slow. The snakes will
sometimes crawl up these ropes to the
deck. The sailors are always bare
footed in that climate and when Jack
accidently steps on something soft,
Shiny, and squirming he is anxious to
get away from it-New York Tribune.

An odd street show.

A sketch made on the streets c. a
town in the province Of Bengal India,
shows a method somewhat unusual,
even in that country, by which tiger
may be put on public exhibition. In
stead of being confined in zoo or
menagerie. where the people are re-
quired to visit him and pay a regular
price Of admission the tiger is carried
around In the towns, where everybody
can see him and pay or not, as they
please. The native owner collects the
small coins that people choose to pay,
while his assistant attends to the
team.
This tiger was captured when a
cub. and when he was half grown or
more, a strap Of heavy leather was
fastened around his neck and another
around his hanks. For greater Sc
curity these two straps are connected
by a lighter one-running along the

neck strap, or yoke, are two stout
iron chains fastened to the opposite
ends OF tho platformfr frame. Straps
