A HUNGRY PYTHON.
The First Course Of His Meat Got Him
Into Serious Trouble.

In my travels | visited the Jail at
ThayetMyo, in Burma. On the morn
ing OF my visit there had undoubtedly
been an unusual occurrence. A python
twenty-five feet long and twenty-eight
inches in girth had entered the vege-
table garden and crossed it to the fowl
pen. Besides the fowls, there We're
some FIVE ducks in the pen. Now, the
front of the pen was fenced with dia-
mond mesh galvanized wire netting Of
a strong type.
The snake could not resist fat
duck. so, putting its head and neck
through the stout diamond frame, 1t
seized and swallowed one. l have no
doubt whatever that it would have
'mopped. up the bunch" inside the
house. but that in adjusting No. 1 to
make room for No. 2 1t became aware
of an ueasy feeling owing to the wire
around its waist Neither have l any
doubt that in addition to becoming
uneasy it became seriously alarmed.
Being now unable either to disgorge
or to get away, it tore off the whole
section of netting, 6 feet by 8, and re-
turned with the necklace or waist
band through the cabbages. Not I'M
naturally, think, the sentry, seeing
6 by 8 foot wire section Of fencing
marching through the cabbage patch
without any visible means Of support,
gave the alarm and then opened fire.
The prison guard rushed out and
also opened fire, and very shortly our
hero lay dead In his frame. He was
skinned and his skin cured and dress
ed in the jail. where they are noted
for this kind of work.-Forest and

JOSEPH R. RALPH IS

There Is in Washington q man who

that the handling Of such vast sums

TABLE SERVICE TIPS.
All Ornatsness of Decoration Has De-
parted For Simpler Effects.


Fashion is tickle in table service as
well as in other things. The dinner
table of today is not what it was a
few years ago. All the ornateness of
decoration has departed, and center
pieces no longer resemble jungles,
while one can eat at ones ease with
out being surrounded by silly little
china Cupids and swans.
The whole scheme of decoration for
the modern dinner table makes for
simplicity. Any suggestion of osten-
tation is bad form. The table is not
strewn with trailing smilaX and loose
flowers. nor is the bare mahogany seen
as of old, except for luncheon or
breakfast.
There is reversal of taste in favor
of good linen, plain glass, good flow
ers and general practical simplicity
of service in every detail Glass
bowls with Il few well selected flow
ers are even supplanting the silver
ones, but the latter are often Of such
real beauty and lend to the table such
distinction that it will be difficult to
supplant them entirely.
Odd little novelties for the table
have crept In recently. One of the
newest is small cruet frames for each
guest, and these cruets contain moth
ing but pepper of different kinds.
