A Snake Story.

Here, 5s a snake storyfroma BechuaJ naland paper which we do not remember having seen before. A Barberton man, who goes to church regularly, was one day walking along” the banks of Concession Creek eating a sandwich, and on account of the usual disparity between meat and bread he threw the’redundant piece into the water. Immediately a swarm of yellow fish bubbled around it, fighting for the mouthful. The man searched his pockets for fishing tackle, but all in vain, and was-just beginning to (lie of despair, when his eye lighted on a black sS&ke. At that moment he remembered how his father used to tell him that black snakes were \ cry expert in catching fish. He therefore grabbed the reptile by the tail, carried it to the river,' and held It over the struggling fish. The snake proved itself a born angler, and In the course of an hour the man had captured forty fi3h. A few days later, as he was walking in the same place, he felt something rub against his leg, and looking down he saw his friend the black snake, eager for more sport— Rangoon (Burmali) Times. After living to be 90 years old, a Chicago woman committed suicide recently.

LIVES DASHED OUT.

NEW YORK AND NEW JERSEY SWEPT BY A CYCLONE. •. r— — ; -- • .. iHore than a Dozen Little Villases Suffer by the Sweep of the DestroyerCherry Hill Annihilated—Financial Loss Is Enormons—Nine Are Hart. Nine Killed and Many Hnrt. New York and New Jersey were swept by a death-dealing cyclone Saturday nf--temoon. Nine persons are known to have been killed and scores wer«£ hnrt. One of the dead, Mrs. Louisa Ketrequin, Was killed in East New York. ~ AH of the other victims lived in and about the little villages of Cherry Hill, N. J., and Woodhaven, L. I. The cyclone descended-upon-the upper part of East New York, known as the Cypress Hills, at 4:30 o’clock, continued on its way to the lower plains district, and from there traveled to_Woodhaven. The cloud was first seen, going over Cypress Hills. It was funnel-shap-ed, Rnd hung very low to the ground. At the upper end was a red spot that appeared more like an incandescent light than anything else. The cyclone swept over the cemetery, wrecking handsome and costly monuments. It tore down trees for about 200 feet and then turned into Jamaica avenue at Crescent street, and wont up Jamaica avenue for about half a mile. Trees were torn down and telephone-and trolley wires demolished. Right in the middle of the wreckage six cars were caught. They belonged to the Brooklyn and Southern Railroad and were struck when in front of the Stewart home. The cars were filled with passengers and there was great excitement. Half a dozen persons werje slightly injured. The cyclone wrecked thirty houses at Woodhaven and a very large schoolhouse there. There were twenty residents of Woodhaven hit by the various objects which were carried through the air. Chimneys sailed through the air aa though they were no heavier than feathers.

. Between 40;000 and 50,000 persons visited the scene of the ruin and devastation at Cherry Hill Sunday. Some of the unfortunates whose homes were wrecked sat about during the day wondering what was in store for them. Hackensack and the other towns have responded promptly to the call for aid made by the people of Cherry Hill. Viewed in the light of day the ruin appeared more complete. Everywhere in the path of the storm were ruins. The dangled heap of timbers by the railroad track told where the depot went to pieces. That pile of wreckage showed where a house had been thrown down and that one where a barn had been razed by the winds. The leafless trees that withstood the strain of the whirlwind gave the appearance of midwinter. On two sides, as viewed from the center of the town, there were banks of green, hut where the storm swept everything was black and bare.

NOT FOR PUBLICATION.

United States Ambassador Knstis Taken in by a Clever Frenchman, The Paris Figaro publishes a statement from the lion. James 8.. Eustis, the United States Ambassador to France, in which the latter says: “The fact is now recalled, to my memory that Secretary Vignaud introduced to me on May 13 not as a joi»rp&M#f. but ns .a writer. According to my custom, I had a conversation with him, but I certainly did not authorize M. ItoUtier to publish it.

JAMES B. EUSTIS.

He did not.tell me he had such an intention, and if ho had I should have taken the necessary precautions. Indeed I should have forbidden him, as would have been my duty, to divulge anything of our conversation. I did not use the language M. Routier attributes to me, and I do not understand why M. Routier thought he had the right to invite me to discuss delica'te questions of international politics.” The Estafette discussing the affair remarks: ‘Tt would not require many such incidents, especially in view of the effect which it produced in Spain, to lead to serious complications with the United States.”

NORTHERN MICHIGAN FIRES.

Great Precautions Taken to Prevent the Destruction of Villages. According to press dispatches the Northern Michigan forest fires are numerous and formidable. The forests are mostly hardwood, and while the fires may run rapidly when fanned by a strong wind, yet they can be controlled by judicious and timely back firing. All the small towns in the danger district and many farms have been carefully encircled with back fires. The situation is being carefully watched, however, and there is not much to fear. At Wallin, the town burned Thursday, these precautions were not taken The Sullivan Lumber Company loses about $30,000 on mill, lumber and buildings, with a total of $3,200 insurance. The charcoal kilns will "be repaired immediately to use the damaged timber before it goes to ruin, but the mill will not be rebuilt until next season. A large tent has already been erected for postofiic-e, store and hotel, and as soon as buildings can be put up many of the workmen will return with their families, who are now stopping at Thompson vilie. • —■— The villages of Clary. rlocked Grawn, Bensonia and others have been threatened, but by back firing the danger has been averted. Comparatively few farmers have been burned out. Considerable damage has been done to standing timber and much hemlock bark has been destroyed. No lives have been lost, and even at Wallin the live stock was saved, the cattle taking to the thick woods, where the fire did not reach them.

NEW MONEY ORDER BLANKS OUT

Are in the Form of a Bank Draft and of a Sea Green Color. Requisitions for money order blanks received at the Postoftice Department will be filled from this time on with the new blanks designed some months ago. It will not be many weeks before the public will become well acquainted with the new’ design, and it is safe to say that it will in all probability prove a popular change! The new blanks are in the form of a bank draft. The text is lithographed and the ink used is a sea-green shade. The effect is artistic and pleasing, and altogether the form and general appearance of the new blank is such as to make the recipient feel more than ever as if he had a good thing. The old scheme of notched numerals at the left end of the blank is retained, as it has proved a great convenience in business and a safeguard against fraud. The dollars and cents are also printed on the reverse side, so that with a nice register in the press work both sides of the bit of paper will show the precise amount of the order.

ON FIRE IN MID-OCEAN.

Flames Break Out in the Lower Hold of La Normandie. The French line steamship La Normandie, bound from Havre, moved up the bay to her dock at the foot of Martin street, New York. Saturday morning with tings flying in the sunlight and nothing but the rush of water from her powerful pumps to give a clew to the terrible dangers of the voyage. Yet in midocean throughout Tuesday night, in the thick fog and storm, the starboard freight compartment of the good shiii, packed with valuable merchandise, was a roaring mass of fire, while the seventy-five first and second cabin passengers and 203 occupants of the steerage waited for the seeming|y inevitable order to “take to the boats.” For fifteen hours the battle raged between the. crew and the flames, and it was not until well along toward noon of Wednesday that the vessel's safety was assured.

A Popular Sovereign.

The King of Denmark, it is said, is a quiet and unostentatious man, and rather fond of traveling If his people would let him do it in peace. Not long ago, as he was on a journey, the train was blocked for a little while at a small station by an accident A peasant who had heard that the king was on the trgin took the opportunity of seeing -him, and, walking down the platform, stared at the ears until he came to a nice-looking old gentleman looking out of a window. “Good morning,” said the gentleman. “Good morning,” said the peasant, “be you the king?” “Yes,” Replied the other. “Well, then,” rejoined the countryman, ""I want to tell you something. You be the best king that ever wetaad in Denmark. ” The king lifted- his hat in acknowledgment of the compliment, and said, “Thauk you, but that is a matter of opinion, and I cannot judge it Impartially.” Advertising pays: Newspaper advertising pays best of all. Our most successful and prosperous merchants and tradesmen, whose bright record has added imperishable luster to the history of American commerce, can all testify to this truth from personal .experience. The newspaper is the commercial traveler in city and country home, who tells at the fireside, to its evening circle, the merits of your wares and merchandise, if you are wise enough to employ it to speak for you. It never is neglected, never goes unheeded, never speaks to inattentive or unwilling "s always a welcome visitor and meets a cordial reception. It speaks when the day is done, when cares vanish, when the mind at peace and at rest is in its most receptive mood. Then it is: that its story is told and all who read treasure what it says,and Rre influenced to go where it directs for the thing of which it speaks. What other influences can be so potent to help trade as this quiet but itiwerful advocate? Let it become a salesman in every home for your wares. Let it make its mighty plea for your benefit. And we assure you it will do more than all other influences to promote your business and put money in your purse. In our long experience we know whereof we speak. Try it.

Impoliteness may sometimes, perhaps, be answered promptly with Impertinence. A struggjing author went to an editor with a manuscript “Oh,” exclaimed the editor, “don’t bother me now. I’ve other fish to fry!” “Well, I’ll fry your fish for you,” said the author, “while you read my manuscript.” So the editor had to read it.

The Trust After No-To-Bac.

Chicago Special.—Reported here to-day that a large sum of rnouey had been offered for the famous tobacco habit cure called No-To-Bae, by a syndicate who want to take It off the market. Inquiry at the general offices revealed the fact that No-To-Bac was not for sale to the trust at any price. No-To-Bac's success is marvelous. Almost every Druggist In America sells No-To-Bac under guarantee to cure tobacco habit or refund money.

Curious Custom in Holland.

When young Queen Willielmina visited the other day the marvelous vaults at Maestrielie, which are ,one of the sights of the place, she was requested by the authorities to Inscribe her name upon a marble slab in the wall, which bears the signatures of many other sovereigns, Dutch and foreign, prominent among them being the autograph of the first Napoleon. Just at the moment when she was about to comply with the request three tiny gnomes sprang out from behind a pillar and exclaimed, in accordance with the timehonored custom, “Who are you that dares add your name to that of William the Silent and of the many illustrious rulers of the Netherlands?” Queen Wilhelmina, who had been prepared for this little piece of pantomime, replied: “I am the daughter of this King William 111. whose signature you see here, and his successor to the throne of Holland,” whereupon, the gnomes—three: small boys dressed up for the oc-casion-bowed low, received some coin, anu retired.
