IN A PYTHON'S COIL.
An Adventure That Nearly Cost Zoo
 Official His Life,

The attendants in geological gardens are exposed 10 dangers of various sorts. The superintendent of the Gin, cinnatl animal park once had an ad- venture with a python which came near costing him his life.
 It became necessary to make some changes In the snake house, and the superintendent. Mir. Stephens, was in the cage of pythons, anticipating no danger, when to his dismay he saw the largest snake coming toward him, hlssing and darting its tongue angrily. Instantly he realized his danger.
 The superintendent quickly grosped the huge reptile just back of the neck with bis right hand and with the left clutched the creature two feet lower down. where the greatest muscular power of the python is located,
 He tried to thrust the writhing mass Into a waiting box. but the python coiled its twelve feet Of length round the mans leg and began to constrict, carrying Its tightening coils higher and
 
 higher.
 Struggle as he might, Mir. Stephens seemed helpless in the serpents grasp. His hands were so moist that the scaly body twisted In them. Perspira- ton streamed down his face, The python had worked its head free and was darting It's horrid tongue almost In It's victims eyes.
 The man threw up his hand instinc- lively to shield his face, and at the same moment the suake seized and began swallowing lt
 By this time the attendants had rushed into the cage, and they began beating the python. Not liking this treatment. the big snake relaxed its coils. Mir. stephens jerked bis hand free and broke or one of the python's fangs in his thumb In so doing
 "If ! had not held on to its heaviest muscle" said the superintendent, I have no doubt it might have strangled me. As long as | kept my grip there felt confident. but ! was pretty weak after the adventure"

AGREED WITH THE ASP.
The Frenehman Got Around the Law
 Against Kissing.


 Against Kissing.
 A gentleman who had been Uuccrc. moniously hustled out of a Paris play house because he hlssed when the cur tain fell on the second act brought an action for damages against the mana ger Of the said house.
 The court decided iu favor of the hissing gentleman. adding that if a spectator is allowed to show his de- light by indulging in applause his neighbor has also the right to show disapprobatiou in an audible fashion,
 But the law in France was not always so tolerant. In the middle of the sev- enteenth century It was strictly for bidden to hiss in a playhouse. and in every theater there were a number of "gardes Francaiscs" with strict orders to arrest any person infringing the law.
 But the French are not easily put down by silly regulations, and when ever they see an opportunity they at tack the authorities with that fearful weapon ridicule. In thls case such an opportunity came at the Comedie Francaise during the performance of "Cleopatra." a play by MarmonteI.
 It was a badly written, dull work, and the people were waiting for a chance to give vent to their opinion. At last tue chance came. The manage meut had ordered a mechanical asp for the great scene in the final act, when Cleopatra puts an end to her life.
 The actress raised the asp, which started hissing. whereupon a spectator rose to bis feet and cried: "The asp is quite right. We all share his oplnionw Roars of laughter greeted this joke, aud as it was foreseeu that a similar scene would take place every night the piece was withdrawn from the reper- tory.

A Short lived Club.

One of the most short lived clubs ever formed was the Club des Laide- urs-club for ugly women-organized by the Princess Pauline Metternich, who was an elegant woman, but so ugly that she used to call herself "a white monkey" Perhaps she felt lone some. Anyhow. she tried to gather some of the other women she knew who were not blessed with good looks into a club. But the club proved un- popular and died a natural death. The princess got back at her women ac- Quaintances by rem0rking that if there were any candor in them her club would be overcrOwded.

Aristhiou.

In a small village iu Switzerland is a comfortable old inn much freQuented by English, and the menu generally in- cludes one dish supposed to be special ly British.
