RATTLESNAKE MAX. Calcaes Venomous Serpents for a Livelihood. Interesting Incidents of a Dan gerous Occupation. Tti n wilil valley nt the toot of a lucky ninl precipitins mountain, near th little hamlet of Long Eddy, iti Muilivnu Oounty. N. Y. , is the homo of John C. Geor, whose business is the 4'h ti ming of rattlesnakes. This ec centric individual who lives in this in Rotated Hpot in known throughout thnt part of the country na "the rattlesnake in in." Though over sixty years of fci", he is ns nrtive almost ns he wns twentv years ago, and for a mount aineer, lmrn and reared in that tint u tmvil country, where people of any kind nre scarce, ho possesses a riiro intelligence. A letter insight into his strange and l:ig Tons business e.muot he given thuti liy the following story, toM by himself: "I lmvo boon eiig.igod in catching rattlers at tho foot of this mountain for many years. Some sea son T get from 201) to 300 of them, ni'irty ol whieh I tame nnd ship alive to museums of Xew York and other cities. I kill a good ninny nndextraet the oil, for which I finii a ready sale at from 8'2 to 9') an ounce. The skins are worth from 1 to $.5 each, according to their size and condition. This mountain back of my house is fairly olive with rattlesnakes ; thousands of them live there in their lairs in the cre vasses of the rooks. One day last year I started out below my house, and in two hours and a half caught twen'.y tivn rattlers and n black snaW. I catch the snakes with a hook or snare, nnd put them into a bag, in whioi I bring them home. Do they ever bite me? Well, sometimes, but very sel dom, as I know what a rattlesnake's bite is, and am always very careful li'iw I handlo them. Six or seven times they have been too smnrt for me, and have sunk their fangs into my hands, but I am alive yet, for I have an infal lible euro for the poison. The bites bIwbvs leave a scar, though, as you will see by the back of my hand." This hand has a number of small, leei soars, which look like a very pro nounced pockmark, and these, the 'rattlesnake limn" declares are the results of tho bites ho has received. The "infallible" cure which Mr. Geer used is compounded by himself. Cer tain it is hii has been called upon many times to save peoplo who have been struck by the poison-laden fangs of rattlesnakes, and his remedy has never failed to cure. No less weird and interesting than the man is his rnde loghouse, which is ulwavs tho homo of from a dozen t thirty or more of the venomous rep tiles. These are kept in boxes, aud many of them are very tame, actually seeming to be very fond of their mas- ter. It does not take the old mnn long to subdue those wild creatures, and ho often has them crawling about the floor while he smokes his pipe and meditates. He is fond of having vis itors come to see his pets, though few jieople can be persuaded to enter this den of rattlers and black snakes. This amuses tho old man, as long associ ation has taken away every vestige of feu i' of having them harm him, and he thinks no more of handling the rep tiles than if they were playful kittotis- f Now York Times. Excitements of .Mexican Agriculture, At tho Casa Camadra are two other log bouses, aud in them live some nqualid, yollow-hidod humans who are to form a little stretch of bottom-laud this your. They require work steero to do their ploughing, aud Mr. Boll hus brought op hulf a dozen vicious old "stags," which are boih truculent and swift of foot. The Mexicans in iist that they are not able to handle them ; and Mr. Bell orders his punch era iuto action. After a lot of riding aud y oiling they are herded and dragged iuto the enclosure, where they huddled while seven punchers sat on their ponies at the gate. I was stand- ing at one corner of the corral, near two men. when out from the midst of tho steers walked a big black bull, which raised its head and gazed direct ly at mo. The bull had never before in his stupid life observed a man on foot, aud I comprehended immediately what he would do next, so I "led out' for tho oasa at a rate of speed which tho boys afterwards never grew weary of couimondiug. No spangled torero of tho bull-ring ever put more heart aud soul iuto his running than did I iu my great coat and long hunt ing spurs. The bull made a "fo'loru hope" tor the gate, and the gallaut punchers melted away before tut charge. The diversion of the punchers made the retreat of the infantry possible, nnd from an entrenched position I saw tho bulls tear over tho hills, with the punchers "rolling their tails" behind. After an hour of swearing and haul ing and bellowing, the six eattlo were lugged back to the pen, and the bars put up. The punchers came around to congratulate rae on my rapid recov ery from a sprained ankle, when they happened to observo the cattle again scouring off for the. open country. Then there was a grunting of ponies as the spurs went in, some hoarse oaths, and for the third time they tore away after tho "gentle work-oxen." The steers hail taken the bars in their stride. Another hour'sehase, nnd this time the animals wore thrown down, trussed up like turkeys for the baking, and tied to posts, where they lay to kick and bellow the night through in impotent rage. The punchers coiled their ropes, lit their cigarettes nnd rode off in the gathering gloom. The morning following the steers were let up, nnd though wet nnd chilled, they still roared defiance. For agricultural purposes a Mexican "stag" would be as vulunhle as a rhinoceros or a Bengal tiger, and I nwait w ith interest the re port of the death rate at tho Cusa Ca- mnilra duriug spring ploughing. Harper's Magazine. A queer Marriage Ceremony. They have a queer betrothal custom among the common natives or peons f Guatemala, whieh is scarcely ro- mantio for the girl. I was passing the hut of a native ou a fines or coffee Inntation one day when I saw an old omnn belaboring her daughter with good-sized stick, which she applied igorouslv across the Bhoulders nd body of her beloved offspring, who set up a wail of woe and pain, though I fancy her tears were quick ried, for it was a significant event for her. This is tho way the old lady gave her consent to the marriage of her daughter. Tho natives receive but little cash during the year. Tho priests charge what is there considered a good sum or performing a marriage ceremony, nd the natives of the lower classes dispense with it. The mother beats the daughter, there is a fenst of fri- oles ami tnrtilla cakes and the dispen sation of unlimited quantities of na ive whiskey, everybody is happy and drunk, and thnt constitutes the mar riage, which, singular as it may ap pear, is regarded nnd observed, as a rule, faithfully. Goldwaite's Geo graphical Magazine. When Plants Decide to Walk. Tho first of a course of lcctnres on locomotion and fixation iu plants and animals was delivered at the Boynl In stitution by Prof. Stewart Fullerian, Professor of Physiology. The lec turer said locomotion was necessary, whether in plants or animals, nt some period of thoir lives, to prevent inju rious overcrowding, and to enable the one or the other to obtain such neces saries of life as food aud air. Loco motion was in solids, in water, and in nir. The first head wns subdivided into: Creeping the greater part of tho body usually in contact with its support ; walking and running the body being supported on, and moved by, special parts; jumping the body being projected suddenly from its support or position of rest J climbing, or prehension for locomotion by proxy tho organism ascending a vertical or overhanging support, or becoming attuched to some moving object j bur rowing, digging, boring; reabsorp- tion of hard parts, fixation. Locomo tion in water was subdivided into flouting and swimming ; and that in air was also subdivided into passive, active, flying. Westminister Gazette. A Dead-Letter Office Story.

Iu matters relating to tho welfare of women, as in most other affairs, Rus sia seems to consistently "progress backward." From the beginning of tho new year all the women hitherto employed as clerks and telegraph operators on the various Russiou rail ways wore dismissed and their places nre being filled by men. No reason of nny kind was assigned for this harsh nnd reactionary step, nnd it was not even suggested thnt these employes had in any w ay failed iu their duties or proved unequal to their work. On the contrary, it is declared by those who have had opportunities of judging, that they have filled their posts in n thoroughly efficient manner. The edict which rew nrded their ser vice with n sentence of summary dis missal can only be attributed to somo sudden spasm of hostility ngainst the claim of women to earn their living by their own exertions.

De troit Commercial Advertiser. A RTRANOK rARI'.F.R. Lady Oertrudo Stock, nun, novel' 1st, Marquis' daughter Bnd baker's w ife, has just closed, in tho shelter of a convent, a life of strange experi ments. Had she possessed something more than tho very modest literary capacity that was in faet hers, and had her own personality thus been moro salient and interesting, her story would have been ono of tho principal romances of the modern social world. Lady Gertrude Douglass entered early upon her cloistral life in a con vent of the Good Shepherd. She spent many years there, not ns a nov ice, but as "professed" nun, bound by nil tho vows. From these she wns au thoritatively and officially released hers being one of tho very few cases in which such dispensation is given, or indeed; desired. Lmlv Gertrude wrote two or three average novels, but a few years after her return to the world she joined her brother, tho Ho v. Lord Archibald Douglas, in his work nt a Cotholio rphauago in the Harrow rood. She diil her work there simply and com pletely, nnd brother nnd sister alike made themselves the servants of the little waifs nnd strays they sheltered. To tho orphanage was attached a bakery for tho partial self-support of the charity ami the technical teach ing of tho boys. During Lord Archibald's absence iu Canada, whither he had travelled iu charge of some of his orphans, his sister took a step of which he hnd hnd no warning. With her baker husband she then set up a little shop near Brook Green with small success. Very recently Lady Gertrude Stock w rote a novel, of whieh a baker was the hero. But her husband was away, trying to better his fortunes in South Africa, when, last week, she died. Pall Mall Budget. FAHtUOX notes. huge muffs are worn Very this winter.

Arriving In Richmond, we were compell ed to wait In the itreet In Iront of the I'etn berton tobacco factory until the building could be tilted for our reception. This time wasspentin animated discourse wit lis crowd of citizens who were certain tbat Lincoln's Government was ''busted." In tbe prison we removed tho fastening from the tobacco ureases, divided the pn- reeds nnd took a general "chaw." A trap door leading to tbe cellar wss lifted one night to permit a scout of the premises, with the result that a quantity ot black strap mnlnsses was discovered and impartially divided. Pending the arrangement of toilet conveniences, we were passed across the street to Castle Thunder as necessity sug gested, arranging the wailing candidates In line near tne door 10 puss nt staien intervals. 'Ibis plnn would have been satisfactory as a temporary expedient, bud It not been for the fsct that the "black strap" moved tbs previous question with more candidates than the Tylers could provide for.

How we scrambled for tbe covet' ed pluces in that line, and as we received messages trom the loved ones In the North, how we pitied tbe boys to be lelt behind. I do not think that 1 would bare exchanged ny place in that line for ths best farm in tbe country. I'assing out of tbe prison we turned up the river instead of down, ns we should do to reach Varina Landing, where the ex change boats were.
