Mr. Bristol is fond of recountinz the characteristies of these distinguished friends.;Fin&;du;cated, and possessing a sufficieney of this world’s goods, Mr. Bristol Bas-been in a position to -weigh aceurately the character of those about him. Seated in his room at No. 15¢ Wayerly Place, his long gray beard making the venerable man look like a veritable prophet, this modern Merlin prophesied, pointing his words with a lé]{fore-hnger. Grover Cleveland isithe man of destiny. He}g not an ',‘,‘ : :‘;- Fman.. All through life he has been a“wictim of good luck. He is a marked man, and 1s certain to win. . I don’t give any reasons for my belief except that there is a reason In the. word kismet—fate. Long ago, when he was only a boy, it was the same way. Whatever he wanted came to him. No boy ever had less prospect of becoming a lawyer, but, just at the right time, the opportunity came and he dropped into a berth in a lawyer’s office. So, when the mayorality nomination eame to him, it was not solicited, but it sought him, and of course he was elected. We .diill not feel so confident, but Grover did not waver fora moment. Then the Gov; ernor’s chair was offered to him. There were more prominent candidates, but the lightning missed all these and sought the man of destiny. You knowt the story of the election. Now this last.honor has fallen upon him, and in his (iuiet., forceful way, he will become our President, just as he became our Mayor and Governor. It is fate and there is no escape *from it. Why? Cleveland’s luck is a standing proverb with those who know him.” .

“ITow did you find him as a compainion?”? A ; ;

“One of the pleasantestfellows inthe world. (rood-natured, -even-tempered, he took evervthing quietly, never becoming in any way disturbed, no matter whathappened. J don’t think anybody ever knoew Grover Cleveland that did not eall him & friend. We all depended on him. When miatters went wrong in the political world, a word {rom him scemed tosolve the diffigulty. 1@ was generoas within certain limits, for hisgncome was coinparatively small and her:ul'toliw within it. Compared to the -great majority of men, he was a paragon of “virtue. It was a standing joke with the boys, his strict habits.. Of course he wasn’t offensively goody-goody, but he was vastly better than the most men I have met.” -

And the old man lapsed into a reverie as he recalled some ot his former eompanions. “Now! there is Dana,” he went on in a reflective tone. “We used to be great friends when he. worked across the street from me in the drygoods store of Staats & Dana. He was a bookish lad, and, when Alfred Brisbane came to Buffalo, he and I sent Dana to Horace Greeley with a letter. The young fellow began'on $4 a week, but he was vindicated, and, as he rose, tried to push Greeley out of sight. Hig niture was shown when he /turned against Grant, who had refuseg him the Collectorship of New Yiork. So when Cleveland declined to make a place for young Bartlett, Dana’s friend; the great editor twrned against him and tried to stab him in the back. By George! lam an old man and ou%ht not to swear, but when I think of the treachery of that man I cannot restrain myself,” and the venerable man trembled all over as he'told of Dana’s misdeeds. As your correspondent started to go, the old man rose to his feet, and, with his long, bony fingers stretehed impressively forward, sdid, as though delivering a prophecy. ! : “Mark. the words of an old man. There is such a thing as fate. Cleveland is the child of destiny, and no y‘)ovs{er on earth will keep him from the Vhite House.” fo

TAME SNAKES.

Demonstrative Caperishness of Pet Pythons and Boa Constrigtors.

While looking at some ‘small pictures hanging crooked on the wall, I noticed, what struck me as being very odd, a red blanket protruding from a hole in the wainscoting, the mantelpiece. In reply to. my inquiry as to what this meanty my host said, ¢‘Oh! that is where we keep our snakes; are you afraid of snakes?”” Before I could stammer out a reply, and whilg I was trying to steady my netrves, he thrust in his arm, and pulled out with the blanket a lot’' of serpents, which tumbled on to the ground and the table. Another dive %rought out the rest of the blanket, and with it two large snakes, whjch he informed me were special favorites—a python and a boa-constrictor. These at once coiled themselves.all round my host’s body, in and out of his arms, and about his ngek.

Dazed with ' astonishment and shaking with fear, I tried to retreat, but he assured me, in winning accents and soft words, that the <‘‘dear things’’ were quite tame; and for some minutes we stood, 1 close to the window—which I thought might afford a means of escape—and he between me and the door. Suddenly my eccentric host, who had very large, exciting eyes, called out that he must really fetch down his wife, and shoveling off the two monsters on to the floor (which he did not do without some difficulty), he darted from the room, closing the door behind him. I leave you, kind readers, to imagine my feelings I experienced

2 * A CREEPY SENSATION in my hair, and strange feelings of fascination, faintness, and fear stole over me, as I stood rooted to the floor, afraid even to look round at my Eosisible windew-escape. The two uge monsters crawled stealthily up the sofa and kept stretching out their necks to %‘aze at me, their forked tongues jerking in and out, and their eyes staring with what seemed to me a devilish inquisitiveness. ; The silence was only disturbed by the beating of my poor heart, and I knew not how long it was before the door opened and my host reappeared with a pretty lady, who, after a smiling curtesy to me, lifted the snakes from the sofa, or rather, leaning toward them, allowed them to.entwine themselves quickly round her comel figure. Althongh still frightened, { hegan to heave sighs of relief, and could not help being impressed by the icturesqueness of the scene. The Fady’sv black velvet bodice showed off to great advantage the large snake coils, with their curious markings, and her rich brown hair was soon charmingly ruffled by the caresses of the snakes as they poked their noses through it. In a few minutes two little girls appeared, and, trippin% up to their mother, began playing with the snakes, calling the boa ‘Cleopatra dear,” and actually kissing its nose until the snake tried impatiently to ‘withdraw its neck from their tondy lit= tle hande, - e el e

° Mrs. M, who seemed overweighted with the two snakes, asked her husband to relieve her of the python, and she then propoded that we should have some coffee, which was brought in by the little girls. By this time I had reained my self-possession, and watched ﬁmﬁvm Ihe ' keenést interest of 4f

%RReD g , X - | aftist as she ?oﬁiﬁ& out the coffee and tapped occasionally ~ * THE HEAD OF THE BOA, - which was inquisitively stretched out toward me. During this time the smaller snakes were all about the: room, a green one half hidden in the’ blotting %ook, and others haniing from the tables and - chairs, and from Mr. M.’s pockets. e “Several months after this adventure, I happened to be at a rather smart wedding, and meeting Lord Arthur .ansell&x‘vhovl knew was a lover of snakes) I narrated the circumstinces to him, and was rather taken aback by his proposal that we should go away, there and then, in -a hansom eab to Chelsea. “‘Surely,” I exclaimed, ‘‘you don’t propose to leave this goodly company” (Mr. 'Gladtone was thero among -many other celebrities) ‘“and this goodly cheer, to sec the snakes? . ““*The guests are met, thedenst is gety - Mays't hear the merry din.' ” : But he was evidently determined. So off we drove to Cheyne Walk, where 'we fortunately found the snake-charm-ers“at bomre, and saw much the same scene that I huve already described. | Lord Arthur was more venturesome than I was, and got one of the smaiier reptiles up his sleeve, and: Mr. M. had te. come to the rescue 'and draw it forth through his shirt cuff. We were shown a very perfect skin, apparently about three yards long, which Mr. ML coolly told us tihe boa had cast while in bed with him one cold night.” He felt ‘‘the poor thing fretting about,’’. and kept telling it to be quiet, but it would persist in squeezing between his legs and feet, and in the morning he found that it had shed its skin. i " Mr. and Mrs. M. informed us that once, when they were away, for’ two months, they left the two big snakes in charge of a keeper at the Zoo. On: their return the keeper said thatif they. had delayed much longer the boa awould have died, as it was refusing food; and when he produced the snake ‘it, recognized Mrs. DM.’s voice, and sprang at her with . SUCH VEHEMENT AFFECTION as nearly to upset her, coiling itself closely round her until they reached home in a cab. Our hosts also informed us that one summer’s evening, when the family, including.all' theo snakes, were having tea in the garden, Cleopatra kept swinging from a tree by its tail, and Mr. M., thinking it a good opportunity to. gauge the stréngth of the boa, placed himself under the tree and allowed the snake to coil itself round bis waist. He then found that he could lift his feet from the | ground. We were also informed that if the big snakes once made pefs of live animals given'for food—which they were apt to do wlen not hungry—they would never cat them, but would wait until fresh beasts or birds were provided. Some years later, while [ was abroad, I noticed in the English newspapers an account of a chancery suit affecting my friends and their beloved snakes, and on my return, finding that they were likely to be turned out of their house, owing to a stray snake having frichtened a neighbor’s servant into a fit, I wrote a letter to ‘the Z%mes in defense of the snakes, which will be found quoted in Dr. Romane's book on «“Animal Intelligence.”” In spiteof my protestations the serpents were declared té be a dangerous nuisance, and my friends ‘were turned out nearly broken-hearted and ruined. . After a long interval I heard of them again from the late Frank Buckland, who was a kind friend to the family. They ‘were living quietly with their snakes in small lodgings near Leicester ®juare. Ope day Mr. M., who was a delicate man, was seized with a fainting fit, and remained on his bed insen- ‘ sible whiie Mrs. M. hastened out for the doctor. ~ On her return with Buckilund, they found Mr. M. still on the bed, but regaining his.consciousness.: He was weeping over the prostrate body of his beleved Cleopatra. The snake, suspecting something -wrong, had evidently crept upstairs, and wheh it found its beloved master insensible bd experienced some kind of shock. Partly on the bed and partly trailing on thefloor, the poor boa was found stone-dead!

A Wonderful Operation. Dr. Gerdner, a surgeon attached to the staff of Bellevue Hospital recently performed successfully an -operation whereby he removed a large piece of skin from the bedy of a suicide and {transplanted it upon the arms of a patient whose flesh had been denuded of its covering. The operation conflicts with the present theories which maintain that the fluids of the tissues becomes poisonous after death, and when placed in contact with the fluids of the living body produce pysemia, or blood poisoning, which is generally fatal. : The causes that led to the operation’ are as wonderful as the successful issue itself. Charlie Johnson a little boy, during the summer of 1883 ‘was struck by lichtning, the electric current passed through his body, tearing oft the clothing. The boy, who was | sitting by an open window, was thrown to the floor, where he remained unconscious for several hours. He was subsequently removed to the hospital, whete it was .found that.the greatest injury was done to the brain. Contrary to all expectations 'he had recov--ered and regained the full possession of his faculties. It was noticed, however, upon his admission that the skin lon his left shoulder and arm to the el-. bow had a peculiar dark purple hue suggestive of gangrene. The applica{tion of stimulating lotions failed to restore the activity of the blood vessels. Gradually the parts died ‘and dropped off, leaving the muscles exposed, with rageed edges that bled under' the slightest provocation. : i Dr. Gerdner, under whose attention the sufferer came, resolved to try the sxperiment of transplanting a large piece of skin at one time. - As living prisoners were not wiiling to part with that useful part of their anatomy, Dr. Gerdner was obliged to - look about for some other means. It is a well-known fact that the skin is one of the tissues of the body that will not reproduce if once its functions are destroyed. To -avoid the evil results of a’ pressing cicatrix the doctor hit upon the idea of using the skin of some body as soon after death as possible. An opportunity presented itself a few days after,when the body of a young German suicide was brought into the morgue about three hours after life was ex‘tinct and while still warm. Dr. Gerdner regarded this as the most favorable | time for his operation, and he prepared | 'his patient for the experiment. A few slever strokes from the scal;}ml blocked | out a piece of skin slightly. arger than the area to be covered on the boy’s arm, to allow for the shrinkage of the integument, which is very elastic, and in a few minutes more the piece was | dissected off clear down to its muscu- | lar attachments. i ; ~ The boy’s arm was cleaned of the | sears and excoriations and the piece, ‘about & foot square, cut up into small sections, about one-quarter of an inch | square, was placed upon the arm. The | work oecupied about two hours, at the |end of which the arm was completely vmﬁeﬁﬁm%e new skin, ranged like | tile ugm apon o hall floor. Bandages were | applied »%’ﬁimmfns lotions spread {overit. The little vessels from the | musclos penetrated the now tissues and | st up a - benlthy o i %&1&% e T e

of the little piéces refused to attach themseives and . died, sloughing aws; without doing damage to the surroundying parts. Nerves appeared, and sensation in the new coveribﬁ became almost perfect about a month aftersard. The operation, in the face of an article which lately appeared in a German medical paper, which describes a ‘similar case, proves that the work of the American surgeon antédated the German operation.—New York World.
