5 -Snake-
.j V.f H. Mlirlrios.
All round ths circle of ths hills
C-o dair.ling iky pressed down un-
onclixl to ths touch of the parched
i-rocli. Dstwsoo ths hills tha
i1 : li-ow bsslo ksy baked and breath-
. Ovsr It the tense air qulwred
v i hoat. Within, no bird fluttered
water purled nor green plant
; Mei its head. Only the desert
,i . .Idron, sagebrush and grease-wood
long-splned cactus, gray but
novor dying, lived- on there lu the
drought, sterile and forbidding as
the land which gavo thoui birth.
Everywhere wu alienee upon the
place, everywhere waa Immobility,
save where the mac lay and whore
beside Mm the bound annke whirr
ed and writhed and rattlod In the
Impotent fury of fear.
The man lay stretched on the hot
earth stark naked, his fnce turned
to the sky. A buckekln thong paused
across hta throat and waa drawn
taut between two roots of rare
brush. The nooso which held hla
ankles was secured about a clump of
urease-wood and both arms, thonged
at the wTlsts, stretched wide na In
crucifixion. Heavy bands of buck
skin spanned his body eo that to the
prisoner there were but two possible
nigvements. Ho could turn his head
from sl to side, facing on the o:io
hand the snake, on the other I'mi
miniature forest of rage-brush; a'.vl
he could clench and unclench hla
pinioned hands.
In tli I a Inst froodom tho final In
genuity of savage captors had found
expression. With the left hand tight
clinched, the snake's wild stroke fell
Just short of lta aim. Should sleep
or Insensibility relax the fingers tho
reptile's head might overlap them.
Since early morning, through the
Increasing heat of tho day, the man
had lain tbero, grim and Bllent as
th gray Mils round him, save when
r.-w and then he raised his hoarse
voice In defiant shouts. The snake,
oa the other hand, struggled and
fought unceasingly against tho cord
"which held him, striking Impartially
at It, at the Just removed fingers or
at the wooden stake to which tho
lord was tied, grovelling his body In
' o sandy earth, writhing and tug
with protruding tongue, and all
Voile translating in whirr and
i the blind fear of his captivity.
jometlmes ths man turned his
.u.id to watch; once or twice when
snake's movements flagged he
lightly stirred his fingers In tho
aa.nd, the ruse each time rewarded
by the swift spring and fruitless
stroke. But mostly he lay still, all
Ids mind bent on endurance.
The man had been placed there
to die. He knew it and the know
ledge tinged his thoughts with a
Grange curiosity. There were three
ways in which death might reach
him; through the snake, through
sunstroke or by the weary route of
thirst and hunger. The second and
quickest of these ways the light
mountain air, vibrantly hot though
it might be, rendered improbable.
For the snake is waa a part of the
man's torment that at any minute he
might stretch forth his hand and by
the movement invite an end brief
indeed, but horrible to the mind,
doubly horrible to the strained im
agination. There waa one other chance. An
unexpected rainstorm, a heavy nlpht
dew In that barren place, would ro
stretch the slender buckskin thon
which Ue'ld the rattler that unaided
he might reach and strike his vlo
tlm. This waa the elements of un
certainty in the grim problem. This
it ves that sent tho man's eyes
soerchins the bare horizon with a
look half dread, half longing.
On one of these weary journey's ot
ElKht a tiny speck or crack tbnve the
western hills attracted him a steady
pinpoint of the duzzlltig blue. Ho
shut bis eyes a moment in order to
look again the more Intently, and
when he opened thorn, lo! the dark
points were two. Ho watched them
unconiprehndlngIy, as slowly und
steadily high In air they moved from
west to east. When at last in mid
heaven the sun's sheer strength boat
down his gate, he was the lonelier
for loss of this one sign of move
ment. The sense of heat had by now
grown into anguish. Tho man's ex
posed body drew and quivered be
neath the sun's rays as though each
Inch of it wur endowned with a
separate life. Unseen inseots brush
ed and fluttered upon tt, leaving be
. neath their light pressure a trail like
fire on the blistered surface. The
snake lay prone, exhausted almost
beyond str4Mg. The man( noting
it, smiles sjatairly und scraped his
fingers noisily in the loose earth. As
the snake whirled to front the chal
lenge, he curled his hand close with
a taunt for lta futile effort
He was thM fcgrossed when sud
denly across hkt face swept a sens
of delirious enotawit. He turned his
bead, close abov him almost within
touch of a frs hand a great 'bird,
carrion la every toovement, hovered
on steady outspread wings. Its shad
ow fell across his face; its eyes,
beadlike and glistening and greedy,
looked, straight rose his emu.
Tr sm kHrtMt thy sr4 thus,
man and bird. Then with a cry the
nan flung himself aglnst his bomls,
struggling aud straining at them for
asoftpo from this new horror. On
his body, dry till now, sweat poured
forth la stream. Blood ' gushed
from hla nostrils. With shrieks, with
th, with stumbling words of pray
er, he fought against the fate which
held him.
Not onoo but many times ths
trugglo waa repented. When at
U t, exhausted, his convulsed body
fell back to quiet, the bird was gone.
Shudderlngly the man raised hta
syee. Par ap, half lost In blue, but
rwady, tireless, It hung above him.
Turning his blanched cheek to tho
sand, ho fell Into a tort of sloop. All
through tho waning day hb slept,
through tho approHrti of night and
the swift desert change from heat
to cold. When he awoke the first
pale amethyst of dawn was In the
Sky. Tho snake was slooplng, not as
snakes are wont to sleep lu freodom,
head tucked to tail and sclnuous fold
lipping on fold, but with his swollen
body back-thrown and stiffened
agulnst the stake which hold him,
caught mid-struggle by Insensibility.
. The man turned hla head to face
hltn.
"Hey, rattler!" ho called cheerily,
and scraped some grains of sand to
word the recumbent body.
But when he saw the start and
nhudder with which tho croature
woke, the anguish of returning con
sciousness, suddenly he was sorry for
his act. Whan the snako, writhing
round, struck at Its cord quivering
from head to tail, ho would have giv
en nn hour of his own rout to have
reotorcd tho sleep which he had
broken.
The sun rose presently. Aguin the
weary panorama of tha day unrolled
before the eyoa of the two victims.
The snako was quiet, weakened by
his long struggle. Tho man,
strengthened by Bleep, restored by
tho night's cold, held himself strong
ly in hand.
Watching the indifference of the
reptile, tho man feared loss. Fixing
his eyes upon it, he could hold hard
to sunlty and to endurance, though
around hlra perched and hovered tho
culture ministers of doath.
But as the morning passed a new
anxiety camo upon him. Suppose
the snake should die first. It seem
ed to weaken with every hour and
the man trembled. Ho spoke to it
soothingly at tlnios and had, or be
lieved he had, the power of quieting
Its paroxysms. In his fevered mind
ho searched haltingly for some know
ledge of Its needs. Would it live
longer for the taking of his life?
And if by stretching out his hand he
could delay its end, what then of the
lengthening of IU pain?
Before his dimming eyes the snaks
loomed, bow a refuge, now a menace.
A dosen times he half relaxed his
hand, only to draw it close again.
Once, when the snake fell in its
spring, seemingly dead, he thrust
the Augers wide with a cry of utter
deprivation. When it moved again
he drew them in. Instinctive love of
life still upon him.
He closed his eyes after this and
for a long time lay still, only rolling
his head from side to sldo that tho
vultures might not light upon his
body.
At last, when the sun lay low on
the horizon, he ceased the movement
and again looked about him. Over
head a cloud of birds. Beared by the
sudden quiet, hung high In air; tho
sagebrush all around ruttled 'with
pungent dryness and to the west the
sky burned hard and bright as bur
nished copper.
For a long time he waited. Then
with a sobbing breath, he flung
round, straining his body against the
coads which held him.
The snake, too, had moved. The
thong that bound it was drawn taut,
and painfully it had thrust its swol
len head across the fingers. It lay
thus, outstretched, not striking, Its
glazing eyes on the man's face.
And while they lay so suddenly
there came to pass the Impossible,
the one uncounted chance. From far
across the desolate sagebrush desert
j soundod the barking of a dog.
I It camo nearer and with It tho
creak and grinding of heavy wheels.
! The man strove to cry out. and, fall
j lng, gnawed dosperntely at his baked
j Hps and tongue. When the feeblo
j trickle of blood which paid his efforts
I had moistened his dry throat, he
raised his voice In shrill and terrible
. cries. Above him at the sound the
i etartlud birds swirled to the weBt.
' The snake, too weak to spring, had
yet dragged himself to a coll, his
flat head raised In air.
Between his cries the man eould
hear the abrupt stopping of the wag
on, the confused exclamation of men's
voioes. Next Instant the dog's moist
breath whiffled on his forehead and
' a man's face bent to his own. There
was a sudden tightening of the buck
skin thongs as a knife passed be
neath them, its cool blade searing
like firs on th blistered flesh. Hands
dragged him from his place. A man
on either side, he waa held erect.
Through a moss of pain, and weak
ness, he could hear the com me at of
his rescuers.
M Alive, all right!"
"He'll dls on our hands."
"Carry him to ths wagon!"
Hands beneath his ihouUlws, they
bent to the task of lifting him.
ttie suffers sent out a groping
hand' in protest. Be swallowed hard,
Struggling to speak. llto naked foot
thrust close perilously close to
the faaged heed of the snake.
'Turn him loose, too," he
mended.

American Multi-Milllonalre Xarrted
a vlo-intess and Made no Fuss.
America Is the wonderland of the
jworlu. She has produced among
bt r things, many remarkable men.
Jlut up to now her history bol.is no
record of anything so rare the un
ostentatious, modest, retiring, ullont
multi-millionaire, John F. net., of
Philadelphia, who married a real
Onnuan Countess ten years iiro be
cause he was ln love with her, and
who didn't mention It till the other
day, becauso he did not like pub
licity. Through the recording of a deed
of transfer, by which n large Phlla
delphla brewery goes to one of thu
eons of Mr. lietz, it became known
that he was married. I'pon belim
cornered by an Inquisitive reporter
he admitted that the marriage had
taken plnce ten years ago, and that
the present Rfrs Hetz was a countess,
ibe only explanation of his secrecy,
according to the Philadelphia In
quirer, is that he Is "habitually retl
!ent concerning all things."
Mr. betz met the Countess Anne
Helena at a card party In Berlin.
Ho was sixty, slightly deaf, lonely,
enormously rich, "and a wldowlesa
man." She was twenty-three, beau
tiful and alone 1 the world. They
married, came to America to Mve,
told the rest of the Hctat family, nn 1
aid nothing to tho public. Mrs.
Betz la described ns a home-lovlnrt
woman, who has no social
Inclinations that lead her beyond thn
home circle. After a while Miss
Frances Betz, and then Johnnn, ap
peared ln the home of tho reticent
lletzes, and In due time Frances he
came of school ngo and wns sent to
Temple College, but no one suspected
that she was the daughter of the
multl-mllllonaire and the counters
"We simply wish to be let alone,"
sale. Mrs. Betz sweetly, when the se
cret of the marrlajre hemmc no long
er a secret. ""We are content to live
qulfi v."
"Modesty, even when It amounts
to eccentricity, is a beautiful thing
to behold. Tho average American
millionaire la a bird much moro
closely resembling the peacock than
tho dove, and the American who mar
ries a title usually grows blatant. It
le satisfying to our national pride
offon and grievously wounded by
the shafts of derision sped by our
cousins across the sea to know that
we have one multi-millionaire who
was as modest as If he had owed
money, and who did not seize a meg
aphone to blow it when he had male
a distinguished match. The only
fly ln our ointment Is tho fact that
Mr. Betz is merely a German-American,
and perhaps it is because the
German in him predominated that he
Is so radically different from other
grossly rich Americans. Louisville

"Pencil" of n Wnr Story.
Humor Is not associated with the
bloody days of Kentucky ln revolu
tionary times. But a bit ot fun ot
the grewsome kind Is recited by
Lynn Tew Sprague, In "Outing" ln
an article entitled, "General Isa.ic
Shelby, First Governor of Kentucky."
The incident follows: .
"A patriot soldier named Culbert
.son, who vas acting aa scout to
Shelby's command, while gathering
Information before tho action, came
suddenly upon a British dragoon
who wa3 eating a peach.
"Both were startled by the meet
ing and the Britisher swallowed tho
fruit, stone and all, and reached for
his gun. A shooting match ensued.
The dragoon perished by the duel and
was hastily buried by the scout ln a
shallow hole.
"Visiting the grave next year, Cul
burtson found a peach 'tree growing
from it, and he boasted of living, to
enjoy fruit rooted In British soil, nnd
fertlUzed by his adversary. Tho
story we may add Is Culbertson's
very own."
Smokeless Coal.
A London Inventor claims to have
discovered a process for producing
smokeless coal, apparently by distilla
tion of coal at a low temperature
This, after filtration, Is said to de
posit a very brilliant substance, the
heating properties of which are far
greater than those of the original
coal and which Is absolutely free
from smoke and dirt. The Inventor
claims that efforts to overcome tho
smoke plague have hitherto been un
successful becauso they have been
made lc the wrong direction, and
that by the extracting of the smoke
producing material ln coal before be
ing burned he has been successful In
producing a smokeless coal. Sir W.
B. Richmond, president of the So
ciety for the Prevention of Smoke,
hoa bought up this invention.
Shower Ilnth Apparatus.
Among recent Inventions is a sim
ple shower-bath attachment It is
an Improvement cer the hose and
noszle contrivance recently intro
duced, vhich is attached to the water
fixture, the nozzle being arranged In
one hand and the spray directed
on the body with the other hand.
With the attachment shown here It
is not necessary to hold the nozzle in
the hand. Instead the spray is di
rected so as to strike a person ln the
bath tub, ant any water passing be
yond the body Btrfkes the walls of the
tub. The hands are thus not en
cumbered and are free to use for
whatever purpose desired.. A Chica

It requires a pound of candles to
produce as much light as 1,000 cubio
feet of gas.
A tL WOMAN CHARIOT.
Rare and Va.uabis Rello of Great
and HwrfiW People.
Strolling Mirougu ,ue Filth avenue
wing In tne Metropolitan Museum, In
Central l'aik, Now York, one comes
upon a ci:arlot of bronze In a groat
glass box. Tats U a Kiand prize in
the lottery cf tiio excfcvtktur, Just bucIi
a prize r.s tiid louvru or tho British
Museum would like to draw, since
neither In tiiuir marvelous collucllous,
nor at Berlin, nor lu the many muse
ums of Italy, is its equal to bo found.
Twenty-live, perhaps thirty, centuries
has this specimen of a long forgotten
fathton In war Iain beneath tho soil of
UmhrU, the wooden parts under tho
bronze rottln;; blowiy away, tho
weight of the earth above gradually
crushing In tho shell, and only the
protective layer of oxidation on tho
surface of tho bronze preventing a
total disintegration of car body,
wheels and pole. Near It l:o two curv
ing uheets of metal, all that remains
of the wooden yoko with bronzn cover
Inn plates, and In a dish a Hhmimerlng:
mass of Ivory Hakes hints of a rail
that graced tho curving front.
In such n car, so small, yet so lav
ishly embellished with hammered and
deftly fitted bronze reliefs, may Iars
1'orsena, of Cluslum, have celebrated
many a triumph which the narrow
pride of Honian historians has sup
pressed. Witn tho exception of a
fragmentary bronze car at Pen:?ia,
this Is tho only uxarrple known of tho
war chariots of tao mysterious people
who civilized ar.d pave kinss to Borne.
Last of Old Gunhouses.
The recent vote of the governor and
council of Malno authorizing the ad
jutant general to sell tho old gun
house at ICast Machias brings to
mind that this Is the last of 60 such
houses that the state once owned.
Tho old structure lias been K)Ir.g
to decay for some years, and not Ions
ago the revolutionary field pieces
winch It sheltered were taken to Au
gusta and given a plae on the terraco
at the rear of the capitol. Since then
the rain and ami the winds liave done
their work so persistently that there
isn't must lert of the old building.
A mun, who withes to buy it, eti
mates that It Is worth from $12 to
$15, nnd ho has written to Adjt. Cen.
Farnham to see a there is any ol Jjc

Chinese Salvationists.
They have a new light turned on
the domestic servant question In 3an
Francisco. It is tha Salvatiou Array
and many of the "Chiuaboys" there
have become members and put thoir
reMglous principles Into thoir ho'o
work. The Salvation Army Is work

countries, and Is doing good wark
among tlie Chinese in Chinatown, San

Hold-Fast Horse Blanket.
An organization of Europe devoted
to the cause of humanity has recently
offered quite a respectable prize to bo
awarded to the school teacher who ac
complishes tho most In tho direction
of Instilling Into the scholars In her
or his care the idea of compassion for
the dumb animals. How the award
shall be made has not yet been decid
ed (fa, but it will be exceedingly In
teresting to know how the various
claims shall be Judged.
If this were not limited to school
teachci-3 a promising candidate . for
those houors would in all probability
be the old lady In a Western town
who was severely Injured by bing
knocked down by an animal which
had been frightened by the woman's
praiseworthy efforts to replace on Its
back tho blanket which had fallen par
tially to the ground. It Is quite a
common thing to see a horse standing
on a cold day with Its blanket under
its feet and the individual who stops
to rearrange the article Is a humani
tarian of lesser degree than the one
who Invents a blanket which cannot
be shed in this manner by the animal
which it Is designod to protect.
The blanket shown In the accom
panying cut was designed for this
purpose and looks as if It might ac
complish Its mission, as it Is securely
tautened at each end. The blanket is
buttoned around the neck of the ani
mal ln the usual manner and by
means of two strips of webbing It la
secured to eacu of the horse's hind
legs. This cannot Interfere with the
movements of the animal and canno
work down or be blown from his back.

White Flour and Yellow.
Nothing has bothered tho miliars
and the health faddists more t'.i.ui the
demand among Americans for white
flour. The whiter the Hour tho bi-;i:r
it soils, and of late years Hour that
had the slightest tinge of yellow has
been practicably unsalable. Now, yel
low flour is the natural color of flour,
and In order to obtain tho puro white
ness so much ln demand the Hour has
to be submitted to a bleaching pro
cess, which the health faddists declare
much impairs tho nutritlvo qualities.
This is not denied by the millers,
who, however, are only lnterestod in
giving the public what it wants.
An Englishman named Alsop has
now come forward with a new process
for bleaching flour, which, It Is alleg
ed. Instead of Impairing the nutritlvo
qualities 'of the flour. Increases them.
This process consists of submitting
the flour to the action of air which has
been subjected to the nctlon of an arc
or flaming discharge of electricity.
Analyses made in some of the State
Agricultural Departments show that
ordinary untreated flour contains fifty
four one-thousandths of Its own bulk
of nitrogenous matter, while treated
flour contains seventy-five one-thousandths.
Beginning ot the Piano.
It was a harpsichord maker, Crls
toforl, in the employ of the Duke of
Tuscany, who in 1711 made the first
successful piano. As curator of Fer
dinand de iUcu... lie had a splendid
collection of Belgian, French and Hal
ian Instruments to look alter, and this
uudoublodly ulded iimi, though tho
model was so crudo that tho inventor
could never uuve dreamed a monu
ment would ever be erected lu in;
memory.
From this feeble beginning comes a
long list of names of men who Helped
perfect the piano, lint factories alone
could never have achieved without
royalty to encourage and virtuosi to
play. Frederick the Great ordered
five pianos for hls palace, where tne
can be seen at 'the present day. War.e
Antoinette was a patron of the an,
and Clementl in England and Mozart
in Germany introduced tho Instrument
so it became a part of Ufa. It was in
I'leysei s concert room that Cnopln
played, und our later Anns have
brought out a long list of artists, Jo
eeffy, ruderewskt, nnd ethers.

With nearly all medicines put up for

the same credit as if written from dis
interested nmtives. Dr. Pierce's inedi

tion to the rule. Their claims to the
eoiilidenee of Invalids does not rest
solely upon their makers' sny-so or
praise. 1'lieir ingredients are mutters
of public knowledge, beitig printed on
each separate bottle wrapper. Thus in
valid sutlerers are taken into Dr.
