The Chariot of the Lords of the
World.

Travelling in motor car, apart from
the rapid impressions which it con-
veys of "this amazing England" to
quote Mr. Kipling, is one Of the purest
and most undiluted Of human pleas
ures. The giant engine power, en-
closed within so ridiculously small a
space, huns with infectious melody;
the air seems to wash the face that
is driven through it as if it were some
col and exhilarating liquid; the
brain, compelled to register obserYa-
lions quickly, works with abnormal
brightness and rapidity OF the car,
far more than Of old Flaccus's racing
chariot, is it true that terrarum

BENGAL TIGER KILLS PYTHON
Battle in the Storm on Deck of Steam
ship.

Battle in the Storm on Deck of Steam
ship.
Any one who has never seen the big
gest python ever brought to this coun-
try can find that snake on board the
steamship Indrasamha, which arrived
here recently from Yokohama, Singa,
pore and other ports east of Suez.
Capt. Wilkes, master, says the snake
is 27 feet long and feet in cIrcumfer-
ence. No one took the trouble to
measure him, but he looks every inch
Of the size the captain gave
There were four other big pythons
when the Indrasamha sailed from
Singapore on July 10, besides royal
Bengal tiger that was the champion
man-eater in those parts before ne was
captured and sold. He looks still as
if his appetite might be good if he
only had a chance to spread himself.
If it hadn't been for the tiger the
five pythons would have arrived here
intact The tiger killed one Of them
last Sunday after a terrific battle.
Each Of the pythons was in a sepa-
rate box on the main deck amidships,
and the tiger was in his cage not far
away. Last Sunday the Indrasamha
ran into a hurricane. 1t wasn't an
every day affair by any means, but
one Of those that sailors tell about for
years afterward, the kind where the
seas tower mountain high on the
weather bow and turn the decks into
a regular Niagara when they break
and spill their tons of green water on
the Quivering fabric as she labors
barely able to keep her head to the
sea; the kind that sweep aft carrying
everything movable before them and
end up by going overheard astern in
a swirl that resembles the weeks
wash in a boiling caldron of soapsuds.
Anyway, it was blowing some, and
the seas did come aboard. There was
one particularly tall gray headed fell
low that got over the side and kicked
up old Nick. This sea hit the box of
one of the pythons and the box turned
over. The weight Of the python did
the. rest, and before any one knew just
what had happened there was some
twenty feet Of snake at liberty.
Now the python didn't seem to
know Just what to do under the cir
cumstances. There were other waves
coming along, and while perhaps he
did not have hydrophobia, he was
averse to wetting. The nearest
place of safety seemed to be the tig
er's cage, and the python made for

Of the crew who could have told him,
but the crew was busy doing other
things just at that time. There are

may find to do when there is twenty
feel. more or less of snake crawling
about the decks and the seas are roll
ing aboard mountain high.
But the royal Bengal didn't like the
interloper, and as the python's head
came through the bars he swatted it.
The python came to in minute or so
and started for the tiger. The tiger
kept his port and starboard forward
paws as busy as Joe Cans, and it
wasn't long before the python was out.
Then the tiger pulled him into the
cage and made his Sunday dinner on
about six and half feet of the snake.

A MODEST Youth.
99444A4@44@NNAN4@@~~NNNNN%


Young Cressenden arose after
sleepless night in a decidedly nervous
condition. He shaved himself with
particular care and chose from MS
wardrobe a dark tweed business suit
that he thought would have SOBER
and substantial effect, and although
rather addicted to color in his neck
wear he contented himself On this oc-
casion with a cravat of lustreless black
silk. deciding that even satin would
look rather too gaudy Then he went
down to breakfast and fortified him
self with three large cups of black
coffee. He tried to eat, but he could
hardly force a mouthful.
An hour later Cressenden entered the
Office Of the John Stollbenker Con-
struction Company
The Office boy took his card into
private room and in a few moments he
was facing Her Father.
"Glad to see you, Cressenden," said
that august parsonage, cordially. sit
down. How's everything?"
Pretty we'll thank you, sir?" said
Cressenden. "How's everything with
you? Is the family well?"
"Why, none of them has been strick-
en- down in the night. You were in the
house last evening, weren't your"
Cressenden grew red. "Why-er-
yes. Yes, certainly" he said. "I-er
Il thought"
"You didn't notice any distressing
symptoms, hope?
mo. sir. Oh, no. I hope you and
the fam-you are looking well.
Il make a point of it, said the old
gentleman, swinging his chair around
to face his visitor more directly.
Mighty fine day" said Cressenden,
nervously.
ct would be if it wasn't raining so
confoundedly hard
Cressenden was too pre-occupied to
notice this remark. 'I-er suppose
you are rather surprised to see me here
this morning, he said. But, you see,
you went to bed last night and-er-''
He paused.
Yes, that's another of my habits,
said Mr.. Stollbenker, cheerfully.
Cressenden laughed in rather con
strained manner at the joke.
q hope that you weren't hurt be-
cause I went off to bed" said the old
gentleman. ''The fact is I was rather
tired and I thought perhaps Katie
could entertain you. I'm afraid she
didn't succeed very well, though"
IT'S about Katie-Miss Stolbenker,"
said Cressenden, with desperation.
What is?" asked her father, with
sudden sharpness.
THAT want to see you. 1 know
that she's worlds too good for me"
Who isl"
Katie"
DO you mean to tell me that you
have been making love to my daugh-
ter, young MANI" asked Mr.. Stoll-
benker, with severity.
r know it seems like presumption,
said Cressenden, humbly. Il know that
I don't amount to anything particular
ly and that she is one Of the loveliest,
sweetest, noblest girls"
You admit that she is a rather SUI
uerior sort of young woman?"

Brought 1850, the Best
Price of Any, July q.

Ward Claggett, who shipped a
fine Herbert colt with the Williams
& Radford shipment, is the happiest
man in the county. His colt brought
$3.50, the highest price of any. 1t
was his first experience as a breeder
and he is wild with joy and enthus-
iasm. One of Mr.. W. A. Radford's
colts brought 1915 and the other
$3.50. Mr.. w. E. Forgy's brought
$3.50. The fourteen head of Will
liams & Radford brought $4,O75.
The sale took place on the national
holiday in a pouring rain and was a
great disappointment, as the at
tendance of buyers was very small.

CHANGE
Of Waiting Rooms at l. C..
Station.

The waiting rooms at the Illinois
Central Station are to be changed at
once. The north room heretofore
used by the colored people is to be
renovated for the future use of
white people. The south room will
become the waiting room Of the
blacks.
This will be far more convenient
for both classes of passengers, as
the coaches and sleepers for white
people stop in front of the north
room and the car for colored people
stops near the doorof the south room,
and in going to their respective cars
the two classes of travellers had to
pass each other on the platform.
This was about as inconvenient as
could possibly have been arranged
and caused a good deal Of annoyance
when a crowd was either going
away or waiting to see friends off or
on the train. We congratulate Agent
Mallon on the change he is making.
The change will take place as soon
as the rooms can be renovated and
put in order, and everybody will be
glad.
