Plant That Coughs.

One of the strangest plants that
grows is the coughing plant Of the
Sahara desert. It makes a noise ex-
actly like the cough of human be-
ing, and the desert traveller who IL
unfamiliar with its eccentricities IL
likely to have his nerves put on edge.
when he hears this weird human
cough with no human being in sight.
The peculia, noise is made by dust
choking up the pores of the plant.
causing a powerful gas to accumulate
inside. When the gas gains sufficient
pressure, it explodes with a peculiar
cough-like noise. The explosions free
the plant from dust.-Unidentifled.

How Strauss Once Snubbed a Russian
Court Oiunitary.

How Strauss Once Snubbed a Russian
Court Dignitary.
When Johann Strauss took his or
chestra to Russia he had some unusual
experiences not generally vouchsafed
to those who live outside an autOcratic
government.
One day he received the cZarina's
commands to play before her at her
summer resort and was told on arriv-
ing there that he would have to re-
hearse his program three times before
the performance. He begged TO know
the reason for that. but no explanation
was given him. These were her maj
esty's orders. and he could only com.
ply. Still. his astonishment grew when
he saw during the three rehearsals an
empty court carriage drawn by pair
Of horses slowly going back and forth
in front of his orchestra.
Throughout the final performance
the mysterious act was explained. The
empress. having sharp attack OF
govt, was obliged to recline in the
carriage, her foot on a cushion, while
the concert took place. and the object
of rehearsal had been to accustom the
horses to q full string band lest they
should take fright and bolt with her.
At the end of the performance ar
exalted dignitary of the court bade
Strauss follow him to splendid grand
piano, saying:
stNOw he good enough to play me al
the newest Vienna music"
Although he was pretty fatigued by
his three rehearsals and state perform
ance, Strauss thought it expedient t.
comply, but after he had played con
tinuously for over an hour he stopped
saying, II presume that will be sufh
CENT?
II am not at all tired" coolly re
joined his excellency.

Sidelights on the Census.

Congress has appropriated ten mil
lion dollars for the Thirteenth Cen
sus and may he asked for four mil
hon dollars for the Thirteenth Cen
lion more. Not counting the latter
but including the ten million, Con-
gress has expended over fifty7seven
million in demonstrating to date, be-
ginning with the first census in 1890.
Director Durand hopes TO save a
million dollars or more on the Thir-
teenth Census as compared with its
predecessors, taking into account the
larger scope and size Of the impend-
ing inquiry.
Congress requires the director
to obtain information relative TO the
population, agriculture, manufactures
mines and quaries. 1t restricted the
inquiries under each head, but gave
Director Durand authority 10 deter
mime the form and subdivision of in
quries necessary.
The census of population Is taken
with reference to the conditions eX-
is.ing on April 10, 1910.
The census of agriculture has ref
erence to the calendar year 1909, SO
far as farm operations are concerned,
and to April 10, 1910, as 10 farm
equipment, or rather, Inventory.
The schedule will be CARVED by forty
five thousand of the sixty-five
thousand enumerators, and these will
be chosen from he progressive farm
ers and crop reporters.
The census of manufactures, mines
and quarries covers the calendar
year 1909 only, and the eighteen hun
dred special agents will begin Jan
l, 1910, to gather these statistics. A
test" examination on November the
Bird, was provided for them.
For these places persons who have
had some sort of statistical edu-
cation or experience viii be perferned.

Rattlesnake Island.

One of those strange freaks of an
imal and reptile distribution uhat
puzzle the naturalist is found on Rat
tlesnake Island in Lake Winnipesau-
kee, n. II. The lake contains fifty
seven islands OF all sizes from a few
square feet 10 hundreds of acres, but
only on RatGlesnake is there to be
found anything mole alarming than
the harmless and preaty garter snake
The country surrounding the lake Is
mountainous and we'll wooded, but
l. is free from snakes. Rltlesnlke
Is!nld has a monopoly of rdtJlers.
The island is one of the largest
in the lake as we'll as he most pic
turesque. It's name fJpbids trespaas
and IL remains today as virgin as
when the Indians gave The lake It's
musical name.
Just why the snakes should have
chosen this particular island for their
abode is mys cry, al hough an event
Of a few years ago made il clear how
they might have reached .t. Rattle
snake Island is several hundred yards
from any other island Some years
ago a fisherman, bolder chan his fell
lows, landed on the island and three
cooked his lunch.
Perhaps he WAS q bit nervous for
he forgot TO put out his fire. and the
wind famed it into a blaze. A large
part of the island was burned over.
and during the next few days many
rattlesnakes We've found on the MAIN
land and the neighboring islands.
Within a week, however, the snakes
were gone from che mainland and not
one snake of a venomous kind has
been found outside of Rattlesnake Is
land since then.
The snakes confine themselves 10
the rock cliffs that form the uplands
of the island and are seldom seen.
