THE TWO HEADED SNAKE,
A Boa CONSTRUCTOR That Ha. Very
Deceptive Tail.

Boa Constructor That Has a Very
Deceptive Tail.
Every now and then some traveller
tells of two headed snake which ex-
lists in Egypt, and whenever the mar
ratOr hasn't seen the snake himself
he is more or less disposed to assert
that there really is snake with two
heads in Egypt, because he has been
told about it by many reliable persons.
Indeed, sometimes traveller who
has actually caught glimpse Of the
snake is likely to declare that it truly
is two headed, for the serpent certainly
appears to be so when seen only by
chance
1t is only when the snake is actually
taken up and examined closely that the
truth is revealed.
The two headed snake is not poison
GUS serpent. 1t is only a boa con-
strictor, and it is fairly common. But
it is so secretive that it hides away in
its sandy burrows almost constantly
1t is strangely formed in so far that
its tail, instead of tapering of to a
point as the tails of other snakes do,
widens out into a bludgeon shape, thus
making it look so utterly unlike tail
that it is almost impossible to think
1t is anything but head when the
snake is seen for only moment
To add to the deception. jugglers
catch these boas and paint jaws and
eyes on the tail. The work is so care.
fully done that only trained observer
can distinguish the real head from the
false. Thus the story of the two head
ed snake has obtained wide circula
ton, and has even crept into the books

But the second "head" is only a tai

PARKER TO HIS PARTY.

mocracy Of the Nation"
He offers his thanks to the campaign
committees for their clean and splendid work
"The party has in the near future great
mission. Before long tho people will realize
that the tariff fed trusts and illegal comblna.
tons are absorbing the wealth Of the nation.
Then they will wish to throw of these
leeches, but the Republican party will not
aid them to do IL, for its leaders appreciate
too well the uses TO which the moneys of the
trusts can be put In political campaigns.
"When that time comes-And come II

RESULT IN MARYLAND.

Returns from the several counties Of the
State indicate that the Democrats carried
Baltimore city and county, Caroline, Car
roll, Cecil, Hartford, Howard, Montgomery
Queen Anne, Wicomico, Kent and Worces-
ter. The Republicans carried Allegany,
Anne Arundel, Calvert, Charles, Dorches.
ter, Frederick, Garrett, Prince Georges, St
Mary's, Somerset, Talbot and Washington
counties.
Latest dispatches from the counties OF the
6rst Congressional district confirm the cleo
ton of Thomas A. Smith, Democrat, over
Representative William II. jackson, Repub
lican, by plurality Of 428. Oficial figures
are not available, but Smiths plurality ap
pears 70 be safe and fuller returns will not
materially change il. This is great victory
for the Democracy and remarkable per-
sonAl triumph for Mr.. Smith.
At the time Of going TO press our informa
ton is that Maryland has gone Republican
by 126 plurality, which is unofficial. This
may be changed by the official count. Each
party has elected three Congressman. The
Democrats elected Smith In the first dis.
trict, Gill in the fourth district, and Talbot
in the second district. The Republicans
elected Wachter in the third, Mudd in the
fifth, and Pearre 10 the sixth.
In the present as in the past, old Mont
gomery has rolled up her usual Democratic
majority, as will be seen by the official table
on our local page. tits a subject OF con
graduation among Democrats that this re.
suit has been accomplished In spite of the
great efforts Of the many Republican Office
holders from Washington, who have for
months traversed the several districts of our
county, and with oily tongue, and more sub
stantial inducement in the shape Of hard
cash, have kept their parti- colored cohorts in
line.
To the Democratic Clubs In the various
districts Of the county all honor Is due for
their successful efforts 10 securing the regis.
tration Of new voters and bringing out the
vote on election day.

1t is gratifying TO observe to what an ex.
tent the varied mineral resources of Vir.
ginia are being developed. 1t is noted by
the Engineering and Mining Journal thai
the General Chemical Company, zone Of the
largest manu- facturers Of sulphuric acid in
the world" is erecting a plant in Pulaski
county ITO utilize the iron pyrites thai
abounds 10 the South" A capital of $500, 900
will be employed TO work rich area Of 30
acres. The yield Of sulphurous acid gas is
strong enough to permit its use in the sui.
phite pulp industry. A good quality of sui
phuric acid for making fertilizers can also
be made from the py rites. The iron residue
eft after the sulphur is got out may be used
for making pig iron. Much attention is
given to the Virginia enterprise by mining
engineers, as it will be the first practical
demonstration of the commercial value Of
pyrrhortite ore in this cou ntry.
