snake on Rife tango

From the PitsburQ Chronicle Teie7raph.
An interesting though impromptu exhibit
tion Of skill with the revolver was witnessed
on the State riae range last Saturday after
noon while members of the National Guard
and the Fort Pitt Rife Club were practising.
A blacksnake more than four feet long has
been making a specially lately OF appearing In
various trees near the sOo-yard firing point
and causing some mild excitement among
the shooters. Repeated attempts have been
made to take his scalp, but without success,
leading some OF the skilled marksmen to
believe that he must have seen the bullets
coming.
A cry of sThe snake, the snake!" was
raised about 2 P. NJ. and Immediately every
riheman left his post and Joined in the chase.
His snakeship was found ensconced In a knot
hole near the top OF a dead walnut tree, his
head only being visible.
Capt.R. B. Riddle, inspector OF rife practice
who toted along a .sS oalibre army revolver,
took up a good strategic position a little way
fromSthe tree. while the other marksmen
rallied to his support CD either flank.
Capt. Riddle drew a bead on the wicked
looking head ~protruding from the hole, the
spectators holding their breath in anxious
suspense, and fired. There was a loud report,
a cloud of dust from flying bark. a wild squirm-
ing in the knothole and Mr.. Snake dropped
heavily to the ground. He was shot clean
through the neck.

That was only q little one, anyway,

Saturday still something, else; and was
in de ubt now as to whether the allowance
arrangement would work very well; in
doubt, in fact, as to whether l would not
be out the usual old drafts on my purse
plus the amount of the allowances, and so
be worse of han ever.
On Saturday Lucinda and Jane ooth
brought their cash books in for me 70 see
the first money they had spent out OF their
al owanoes had been for books to keep
their cash account in. And they had
everything set down very prettily, the
cash received on one side and the items
of the amoun paid out on the other, and
they said their books balanced perfectly,
and each had a little balance Of cash left
on hand. There was hope in his but
presently Lucinda: ,,.
Father, l have got to have a new skirt
next week -.
We'll I say, why don't you buy it
out Of your allowance?
There won't be enough .
Then save up for a week or two till
you get enough. That's the way every
body does.
"'But I've got to have it next week.
What am l going to do about it?' says
Lucinda. =,
And I've simply got to have a hat and
a pair Of shoes next week, says Jane, and
I oan't wait till I've saved up
SO there you are. theoretically the
allowance system-if it can be rigidly ad;
hered to-is a grand thing; and 1t would
work out all right II young people were less
impulsive; if they would save up. enough
at first to make a good start with. Or II
would be all right il the young folks could
be supplied at the start with a sufficient
bulk sum Of money to enable them to get
all they wanted to begin with. Theoret-
ically, no doubt, the allowance system is
all right, but in actual practice, on a limited
cash basis

Scratches It's BACK on inc DOWS VI ShipS
Twenty Years at One Address.
Pelorus Jack is the name which local
sailors nave conferred upon a lively New
Zealand dolphin. Its appearance is a regu-
lar occurrence on the trip to and from
French Pass.
1t always comes alone, joining the vessel
astern and hustling forward at such a rate
that it often jumps clear out of the water.
As it is about twelve feet long it stirs up a
rood deal Of a commotion.
When it gets to the bow Of the vessel it
begins a performance which crowds the rail
witt astonished and amused passengers.
Evidently it regards the sharp edge of the
keel as designed especially for the delight
Of scratching.
Its method is to dash across the bow
each tim 9 giving some part Of its anatomy
a good vigorous rub. 1t does this over and
over again, treating first one aside to a scratch
then another side, and 30 on until it has
satisfied It's yearnings in that direction.
Pelorus Jack takes its name from Pelorus
Sound, whose entrance 1t has inhabited for
twenty years. 1t regularly meets passing
vessels and accompanies them several miles
on their course. 1t has become 30 great an
object Of interest that it has been protected
by a regulation OF the Government.

swallow me too. o elephant!' SO the ele-
phant swallowed mother and child. and they
found themselves with all the other children
who we're eaten previously. p
BY and by the child grew hungry. and the
mother lit a Are with her faggots. She then.
with her axe. cut away the elephants flesh.

its great heat filled the elephant with pain.
and he ran. and ran, and ran till they felt
the thunder Of his hoofs racing over hill and
valley.
At length, exhausted. he dropped down
dead. Using her axe. the mother chopped
until she made an opening In the elephant e
side. After this, they crept out. and be-
oame a new nation in q new country.

WHY WE DO SOME THINGS.
Cert Not Because We Look Pretty
When We Do Them.

A man does not take of his hat to a lady
because hi looks nicer without it, declares
Gilbert Chesterton in the Illustrated London
Neus. The instance Of bald men would be
alone sufficient to upset such ar explana-
ton.
He does it because you must positively
do something when you meet a lady or
your whole civilization goes to pieces; n
taking off your hat Is easier than taking
of your necktie or lying face downward
on the pavement.
The primary point is that you must do
something; not that you must do some
thing beautiful. And as long as cultivated
people cannot grasp this fact they will find
their efforts quite futile in dealing with
what they often consider the dulness Of
the middle classes, or the vulgarity and
morbidity of the poor.
In so far as the bourgeois thinks it more
important to wear a Sunday hat than a
becoming hat, he is perfectly right. 1t is
more important; the religion OF the tribe is
more important than the pretty appear
ance Of Mr.. jones'.
In so far as the charwoman thinks II more
important hat her husband should have a
proper" funeral than a pretty funeral. sheis
perfectly right 1t is more important; de-
corum is as permanent a human sentiment
as art, and a much more pressing one.
ANY healthy savage would understand the
c~harwoman's sentiments exactly, and per-
haps alarm her with Recommendations OF
barbaric approval.
He would also understand perfectly the
sentiment Of a Sunday hat. believe in
savages myself; l think that in a great many
matters they represent the enduring COM
mon sense and moral minimum Of human
ity. There is nothing which j so sin
cerely reepect in savagee as their wide
spread and generally ascertained DISPOSE
non TO YEA TOO hats.

D. II. Mccullough had an unpleasant ex.
perience with a rattlesnake recently. He

a fish, and oblivious Of surroundings made a
rush for It. He stepped on something yield
ing and looking down found that he was
standing on the body of a large snake Of the
RATHER variety.
Fortunately the snake was held in such q
position that It could not strike. And | didn't
give him time to wiggle out, said Mr.. McCul.
