Saturday evening lost, vomited a li.ard
from his stomach, v. hich measured 7J
jiiches in length. Tho reptile is black.
sitottod wilh little white d its, and of th?
kind generally found in the w.tods here
abouts. 1) alleii'i aeh has for siui'i yeir
b?eii working in the wo-tds, and h ? has
often drank from s;i--iii' and brooks
where ho v mid e.tstly hive swallowed i
the animal when small, li.illeiioach has
not lately It-en ill s-t he could n.tt work
but Ills complained of not f.sding well
fir tiie p.ist few yours. He is a heavy
rater an I a few minutiM after r iling a
large meal could eit a-i-ith-r just as largo
and still complain of f.sding hungry. Ho
is thin, with sillo-.v tMinplexion and
sunken chocks. This he blamed to his
moderate drinking; so for two or three
months he did not drink a drop of in-
toximting liipior. Whilo at tha hotel

boor and this made him sick, i-a.ising
him to vomit, wilh the altovc suited

Apirt And Kot a Year Veiled.
For some time past thero have bis-n
vague rumors current in Washington so
ciety regarding a most unhappy condition
of affairs existing between Hon. Truxton
Meal and his wife, whom ft w ill lie re
lii. inlsred was Hatlie the yoiiugestt
ila ighter if tho late Secretary Mlaine.
Just what these rumors were it was dilli
c.ilt to ni.iteriali..? into positive state
ments, but the impression has bon that a
separation was pending ls-ttveeii the
y.tiitig niiiple. Now tho rumors have as
sumed a d.s-ide lly definite shajte, and the
talk of theclutis and in sM-:ety generally
is to the f-lfts t that a so.:iration Ihls really
taken place. I'uitherm..re, it is statist
.nr. Iti.il will siiortiy start on a trip to
South Afri n alone, :md that during his
aliscnce his wife wiil remain in this city
with her mother, who has recently re
turne i and taken jtossession of the Mlaino
house, tin linpoiit Circle.
Ais-tr ling to the rumors ciirr.-nt, the
separation between Mr. M al and his wife
virtually t fik place some weeks sin
when sue went to Augusta, Me. Just what
arc the reasons f.,r the i:uh:iipy stale ot
affairs exiiting between Mr. Meal and his
wife can only lc conjecture. 1 at present, as
b.th families maintain a strict siieiiceou
