A correspondent of the Illustrated Family Newspaper relates the following regarding the venomous snakes in Java; The I mho sugar estate in Java com prises over 12,000 acres, about oue third of which is in cane. This is one of the | most denselv wooded parts of Java, and j the bush is like a wall, impervious even j to many wild animals, but snakes flour ish, and there are no less than ten varie ties that are deadly poisonous. Eight of of the coolies emploved on this estate have died inside of four months from snake bites. The chain viper is most dreaded, as it will not get out of one s way, and when trodden on by the bare footed natives strikes fatally. Twelve mi es away is the ruined city of Choru, a wilderness of temples built of stone, cut in designs as fine ns lacework. On the north side of these buildings are long arched passages, and here wild animals resort to get out of the heat. Leading from these avenues are hundreds of small chambers having no windows. In these lurk more snakes than can be found any where else in the island. It is not surprising that the eastern na tions look upon Englishmen as lunatics, they do so many foolish things from no apparent motives save to risk their Two years ago an English naval lieuten ant was here visiting a neighboring plan ter, and his peculiar craze was making a collection of Javan reptiles. His on y attendant was an English sailor lad about sixteen, and these two, against all warn ing, went roaming around the forests without a guide In Choru, the ruined citv, the lieutenant found a rich harvest, and Killed a magnificent black Jaguar, but an adventure with a snake ended his sport. One day he and the boy were under or.e of the long archways of the big temple, and, looking through the doorway of one of the dark chambers, saw something yellow in the far corner. Without a moments thought lie entered and gave the mass a punch with his cane. A tremendious hiss that fairly shook the walls was followed by an assault swift as the leao of a tiger, and the man found himself seized by a huge Dari snake, the most aggressive and dangerous of our con strictors. Uis left shoulder was crushed in the brute's teetli, and quick as a flash a coil was aroand his body, and he felt the steel-like compression. But the grit of the boy saved his mas ter's life. He had a heavy, sharp knife, and he struck the reptile two heavy blows just back of the head, the most vulnerable part of the Ixxly, because the thinnest. Its backbone was divided. The coil relaxed, but the powerful tail lashed out, breaking the boy's leg. It was two hours before they were lound and brought up in a cart. The lieuten ants shoulder was crushed beyond sur gery, and the arm was useless. Both mas ter and boy recovered after a spell of fever. I saw the snake, a hidious object, black and yellow, and fifteen feet long. Such a brute would crush a horse. Gunning one day near the Wasli River in the interior of the island, I watched a number of wild hogs coming to the water to drink, suddenly the head of a snake rose above the grass and a hog squealed. A python had siezed a full grown one, easilv three feet high at the shoulder, and was throwing two coils around the body. Under the tremendous pressure the hog seemed to lengthen, and when the snake uncoiled I saw only a strip of meat, noth ing distinguishable but the head. I shot the snake. It was over 12 feet long and 7 inches through, and yet its coils had crushed the bones of its prey like chips. There is no doubt that hidden away in vast swamps of the interior are many anaendas of enormous size. Parties have been made up to hunt them, but the malarious climate drives them back. In the museum at Batavia it the skin of a serpent that must have been fifty feet long when living. Such a brute would kill a 11 anas easily as it would a rabbit. ....jlVii euro iulver !!!.,. liiiiousness, Indigestion, Headache. A pleasant laxative. AH Druggists. White frost is the ordinary frozen dew or hoar frost. Black frost occurs -when the cold is so intense as to freeze vegeta tion and cause it to turn black without the formation of hoar frost. At the recent election in Crawford countv only two Repub icans were elected on the county ticket, and both were crip ples, and both are of the name of Smith. Tl» moral of this coincident is that if a Republican is after office in Crawford Co. at the same time Joe Sibley is running, his name should be Smith, and he needs to be a cripple before the fight if he would avoid being one after the fight. Ivy, insect bites, bruises, Hcald.-s burns, are quickly cured by DeWites Witch Huzel salve, tbe great pile cure. KKDICK «T GROHMAKN.

There'll be a great array of new hats. The bets a man wins are pretty good election returns. The campaign orator will now give us a much needed rest. The man who was drowned in a vat of whiskey died in good spirits. The fellow who loses his bets discov ers it is a case of profit and loss. The man who didn't win his bets is at a loss to know how his judgment was so at fault. There promises to be a revival of the once popular song,"Where Did \ou Get That hat?" A quiet dress-r—a deaf mute. Colds are easily caught at a hoarse race. McKinley will be the first President with a "Mc\ to his name. The fellow who won a hat on the elec tion is a Derby winner. Enthusiastic gold men will now please bleach their whiskers. Hard times are over. Even the clocks have softer tones. People are talking about the 16 to 1 bets they made on McKinley.
