Pearson's Magazine for June has an tn- teresting article by Prof. J. C. DuBose of Birmingham, relating to Alabama It has a number of illustrations. including one of the first Capitol tn this city on fire. one of the pressnt Capitol. and the old house in Montgomery where Gen. eral Lafayette was entertained in iSzs, as well as . number of pictures of fs| nous AIabamians. The article closes with list of some famous men and women identified with the history of Aiabama.' Professor DuBose would not claim that the list Is complete. for quite number of literary people are not named. One especially deserving a place among Ala bama writers is Miss Ziteila Cooke, for merly of Marion. and who has established a splendid literary reputation in Boston. Her "Doric Reed'' was criticised. in the most favorable terms by eminent review CTS. Grass Hoppers' Hop Is gem of poetry. and as interesting for grown peo- pie as for she little ones. Many of her poems appear fin the best established mag azines and papers. The Cherokee Rose" written by her and which was copied into The Advertiser a few days ago. was greatly complimented here. One who knows Miss Cooke and her fine talent, says: Among literary woAnen in Boston. Miss Zitella Cocke Is one of the nnost popular With rare culture and refine ment, and an extraordinary sensitivity. she possesses an exquisiteness of humor which is charming. A delightful talker and a fine musician, one receives in her society a positive refreshment. and not her own cormpatriots could have sympa- thised with her more tenderly in her sad aaiictions and beresvements than did her friends in Boston, Although living in Boston. she Is devoted Alabamian in heart and sentiment.

man In Kansas City for bribtns . jury in the interest of railroad company. We took the position that thoss who were b. hind the briber and who were benefited by his crime should have been punished. Speaking of the anair. The Memphis News says:
 The danger of allowing such case to rest where the Kansas City matter seems to have been dropped must be apparent to all. The siaring injustice of 1t is cal cuiated to bring the law. irto contempt. h all sueh cases the 'fup fesources of the law should be tested to lbring everp parti- ceps criminis to justice. especially the principals in these heinous offenses against society.
 We have kept pretty close watch on the Kansas City papers to. learn if there has been any movement looking to the pun ishment of the principal criminal. which was the railway company. but nothing has been done or attempted. so far as we are aware. That company furnished the money to do the bribing and was really the chief offender, but 1t escapes while the tool is punished.

are unsafe for women, who are keep

How venomous Creature IL Handled
by Hindo0 snake. Charmern.


The creatures were on the defensive.
but not one Of them attempted to
strike at the master, who sat serenely
in front of them, SO long as he did
nothing to annoysthem. Kullan talked
10 them as II they were his dearest
friends After time one or the other
of them would lover its head, collapse
its hood and begin to try to wriggle
away. Whereupon Kullan would give
it a smart little rap ON the tail with
his stick and bring it instantly to at
tention again. Whether this man pos
sessed any special magic over these CO.
bras or whether the description given
below OF how he could handle and play
with them was simply due to his meth.
cd cannot say. He himself repudia-
ted the idea of magic and asserted pos
itively that any one who had the nee.
essary nerve and dexterity could do
exactly the same.
He used no reed instrument or mu-
sic of any kind to propltiate the rep
tiles. He would simply squat on his
launches in front of them, and. after
they had been kissing and swayine
their uplifted heads backward and for
ward for n few minutes, he raised his
hands above their heads and slowly
made them descend till they rested on
the snakes heads. He then stroked
them gently, speaking all the time in
the most endearlng Hindoostanet
terms. The serpents appeared spell
bound. They made no effort to resent
the liberty, but remained quite still
with heads uplifted, and seemed rather
to enjoy It. Presently his hands would
descend down the necks about three
inches below the heads, his fingers
would close loosely around the necks
and he would lift them or the ground
and place them on his shoulders. The
looseness of the grip appeared to be
the main secret. The snakes, being il
no way hurt, would then slowly craw
through his fingers and Wind them
selves round his neck, his shoulder:
and his arms. They appeared to real
ize that no harm was to be done them
and they made no effort to resent
the handling. He would pick then
gently off one arm and place them OF
the other and, in fact, stroke them anC
pet them as IL they had been pail

She Gets Furious at sight of a Keep
er Who once Beat Her.
There is a lean tigress in the Central
park menagerie who spends a part OF
the day beating her head against the
iron bars Of her cage in a vain attempt
to spring upon one OF the keepers.
Ordinarily the animal is quiet enough.
1t is only when this keeper passes
that she ceases to be a purring cat and
becomes a fiend incarnate. The other
morning the tigress was in an extreme
ly bad temper. When her fancied en-
emy stuck a mop in through the bars
TO clean her cage. she sprang at him,
growing in thunderous bass. Nearly
everybody in the crowd stepped back
involuntarily. The keeper placed an
iron bar IN the cage at the great cats
feet and went on with his work. while
the animal snarled in impotent rage
and drew back her upper lip over two
cleaning white fangs.
"She doesn't seem to be fond Of you"
ventured a bystander.
mo, there isn't much love lost be-
tween u.s." replied the keeper. "Her
tantrums show that animals treasure
grudges just like people. That tigress
came here eight years ago. A day or
two after she arrived had to punish
her. and she has never got over 1t.
She watches me all day out Of the cor
ner Of her eye, and every time / 60
by the cage she makes jump. I sup.
pose she thinks she'll get me some
time. If she does, might as well say
goodby."
While the man talked the tigress
looked at him with hate plainly stamp
ed on her face. When he went away,
she watched him until he was lost to
view. Then she resumed her nervous
tramp. tramp.-New York Mail and
