Often the snake man is unable to supply
his -eobra's demand for large blacksnakes.
The cobra, sometimes representing in mon
ey value the equivalent of a good road
horse, refuses to eat a blacksnake not of an
alluring size. Birds, frogs, fish, rats, chick
ems and the tid-bits that attract other
snakes in captivity, the great serpent de-
clines. The naturalist consults his black
snake cage. The man selects the largest
and inch by inch the victim is pulled out Of
the heap. until he Is held squirming and
dangling by the tail. Then, like the lash of
a whip, the snake is whirled through the
air. At the end of the sweep there Is a
snap and the reptile hangs iifeless. its neck
broken. Then comes a stuffing process.
Down the throat Of the dead reptile a frog
is forced. On top of this a second frog. and
then a third, and so on until the shiny
black body, at first no larger round than a
policeman's club, has attained the dame
ter of a mans wrist. Distorted to these en-
ticing dimensions he is greedily devoured
by the cobra, and there has been smuggled
into him sustenance enough for two weeks.

THE BOY JOHN WESLEY.
No Evidence of Any PrecOciusness in
His Religious Development.

July century.
OF the nineteen children born to Samuel
and Susanna Wesley, only ten survived
the period of infancy, and of these only
three were sons. John was thirteen years
younger than Samuel and six years older
than Charles. OF his early boyhood only
one incident is recorded. On a February
night in 1909, the rectory was burned. The
family, hurrying out in terror, left the boy
John sleeping i'm his attic chamber, and
he was taken out through a window only
an instant before the blazing roof fell in
upon his bed. Wesley always retained a
vivid recollection of the scene, and more
than a half century later, when, thinking
himself near death, he composed his cpl
taph, he describes himself as "a brand
plucked from the burning"
His mother deemed his rescue a provf-
Dental indication that her son was pre-
served for some great work, and resolved,
as she says, Ito be more particularly care
full of the soul of this child that Thou
hast so mercifully provided for" There
is, however, no evidence of anything pre-
cocious in the religious development of
the boy, but only a certain staid override
liDerateness, which he got from his moth
er, but which to the more merciful tenn
permanent of the father seemed, in a lad
not yet in his teens, half amusing and
half yexatious. sweetheart said the
rector to his wife, 81 profess / think our
boy Jack wouldn't attend to the most press

to mingle with the older ones. There are
thirty-fve smaller girls. One naturally
wonder IL these girls, who are shut out
from the happy and gay pleasures of life
and live in a routine existence, broken only
at odd times for a brief moment of recrea-
ton, after which they must return to the
stern grind of the institution, are happy
and IL they do not all have a more or less
morbid and sour disposition. The answer
is surprising. for they are apparently the
happiest individuals in the city and seem to
hardly realize their ostracism.
wOMAN'S PRISON.
The life of the Woman's Prison is like
that of the sister institution, except that
the inmates are prisoners and live as such.
There are six women in for life sentences.
While the inmates tire of the dull routine
of the prison, they are not an unhappy
lot, and with the star of hope in the shape
of a pardon constantly before them they
manage to live day after day. watching
and waiting for the news of freedom, a
message that does not frequently arrive.
These women work hard. and some of them
tend the garden. Many do quilting, and at
times when their hours are over they can
work for themselves.
In a short time the Industrial School for
Girls will be removed to the outskirts of the
city. The managers are looking for a To-
cation now. Following are the persons in
charge of the prison and Industrial School.

PHILADELPHIA TELEGRAPH.

Governor Durbin appears to be acting
with firmnesS, decision and wisdom, TAX
ing no thought about the risk of hurting,
or even killing, those who have revolted
against the constituted authorities. That
is the sort of Governor that is needed in
every State of the Union-a Governor who
will maintain order and enforce the law
at every risk and any hazard. There is no
place in such times as these for a senti-
mentalist in the gubernatofial chair, and
whenever and wherever the lawless ele-
ment of the population discovers that IL
has a Governor and other authorities of
the right sort to deal with, it can be han
died with certainty If not with ease, as

plore her Goodness OF manner and
heart" could have seen her as she sat
with John Elliotts letter lying in her
lap, they would have beer astonished
beyond recovery. Her usually stern
gray eyes were quite soft enough now;
indeed, from out their depths sprang
a surprising tenderness and pity
Handsome" rather than sweet"
was the description usually given her
mouth; but now its firm lines were all
melted, and the pathetic quiver Of her
lower lip, as she slowly raised and
kissed her lovers letter, cast around
It's graceful curves an expression Of
wondrous sweetness.
AS she sat there. allowing many a
tear To gain It's freedom, she recalled
how often he had urged an early mar
riage, but she had Clung 10 her freedom
and cOolly and Dersistcntly insisted on
delay until their engagement time had
dragged itself out into years. And now
well, possible she chided herself too
much. We usually do when the black
cloud of calamity hangs its shadow
around us.
Hut not long did she sit brooding--
that was not her nature. When the
time for action came she was always
ready for 1t. Going over to her desk
she sat down and for an hour poured
out her hearts sympathy, sorrow and
love. Told him she spurncd his prof
