HE'SMELLED THE SNAKE

A STRANGE CASE OF WONDERFUL I HEREDITARY FACULTY.

Bow a Hospital Assistant Wa* Affected by the Prewncc of Rnttier—The Doctor'* Investigation* ami Cracluilon»

Therefrom. "A few years ago/' said a hospital steward. "I

employed in one of the

two hospital? rapported by a tvell known ning company in Arizona for the car© its dek and injr.red employes. It had over a thousand employes, and the casualties, great and small, sometimes averaged one every day,

that the sur

geon's office was no sinecure. The comjt pany was not, however, entitled to credit for benevolence, for it levied a tax of 1 a month on each of its employes, stopping it out of faoir pav «.« sn iport the hospital, snrgeom and nurses The head of the service. Dr. Eckeraon, contracted to hear all its expenses, that it was a good thin# for the men, the company and the phyaduxis, although the men paid it all. "Dr. Ecrkcrson

a responsible,s position He was a Swede? v.iio had been thoroughly educated in his owit country and in Germany, and possessed the mechanical skill f'and manual tact that made a good surgeon and the diagnostic intuition with* out which no man can be a successful physician. He was an enthusiast in his profession and in the cognate sciences— botany, chemistry, physiology and especially comparative anatomy,

FELL IS A DEAD FAINT.

"The assistant in the other of the two hospitals was a young French Canadian named Perot. He was a reticent young fellow, very pallid, but vigorous. .He possessed remarkable eyes. The iris had a singular way of changing color under the influence of his physical, mental or nervous conditions, and these changes perceptibly altered the entire expression of the man's fact-.' We got so after a littles that we could fairly read his moods by the color and expression of his eyes, in Spite of hi a reticence. "One day the doc-tor had an uncommonly difficult operation to perform, and both Perot ami my /-lf were summoned to assist. When Perot entered the operating room I noticed that his eyes changed color reputedly and rapidly as if he wero wider wane jcmit excitement. In a few seconds ho complained of being dizzy, and before vvt realized the urgency of action in his behalf he had dropped to the floor In a dead faint. The ordinary means of restoration wero immediately applied, but without avail, and Dr. Eelrorson ordered him removed to one of tho hospital wards and laid upon abed. Here, to our surprise, Perot at once came to himself without further aid and declared himself ready for duty. "Upon our return to tho operating room, however, Perot's disturbed symptoms at once returned. His eyeballs became ilxod and glaring, his breathing stertorous, and he would ngftn have swooned had wo not caught him and removed him from the room. The experiment was tried tho third time, with tho same phenomenal result. Perot himself was at a low to account for his condition. Ho said ho felt perfectly well and had no repugnance for tho scenes of the operating table, but directly ho entered tho room the terrible symptoms were at one© apparent. "The doctor now sot seriously to work I to investigate this strange ease. He soon icame to the conclusion that the influence Jthat. disturbed Perot was external to him•self, and, as he had these attacks only in the operating room, began to examine its contents, condition and surrounding*for the eauso of the extraordinary affection.

What seemed further to complicate the I case was the fact that Perot had for months frequented the room without experiencing any unusual sensation. At last 1 said to the doctor: 'Has any change been made in this room recently? At first he mid. "No.'

THE noeron'a DISCOVERY.

"Suddenly, with a half smothered exclamation, he went to his zoological cabinet, and, taking down a jar which contained alive rattlesnake,which he had purchased a few days before from an Indian, he examined it with a curious expression on his face. "The reptile was in this large jar, over the mouth of which a wire gauze cover had been bound to permit the admission of air. The cabinet stood behind a curtain, and no one hut the doctor knew of the snake in tho room. "The doctor caused the jar to be removed from tho operating room, and called Perot in. To our astonishment none of the previous unpleasant symptoms appeared. Then tho jar was carried into another room and secreted. Perot was summoned, and upon entering the room the former distressing symptom* at once recurred. Whenever the Canadian was brought near the reptile he went into this trance. "Dr. Eckerson believed llrmly in the Influence of heredity on individual characteristics, and he began questioning Perot about his family antecedents. Perot said that his father wa« a Canadian of mixed blood his mother a Frenchwoman, who had died when he was about 13 years old. He roc-ollected her as a woman of vivacious and happy temperament. He said that she had a great passion for flowers, and would in the autumn gather and dry large bouquets,

her as when frwsh. smell flowers which odorous. These facta had been rivetod in Perot's memory by his father** scoffing at her strange taste and by her persistent defease «f the same. This singularity •waned to have been the canae

been rivol

small contention in the family and talk among the neighbors. "The doctor was now convinced that with his special hereditary tense Ban* ihad smelted the snake. He at once drowned the mtile with alcohol, stopjxjred the jar tightly and calkd Pfcrot Into the room. To his delight the man exhibited none of the unpleasant symptoms The jar was then placed before pot, but without a£eeti&g him tn theleast. The mysterr was swlrM. IV«* bad smtdled the snake. -STow York Sua.

A Pantomime Audience,

If there is one thing more omusi&g than an English pantomime it is the English audience that go to see it. Men, women and children who are intelligent eno&gh on ordinary occasions seem, under the influence of this potent spell, to lose all control of themselves. Before the curtain rc*ie the faces in front were expressive and even thoughtful But when the entertainment was in full swing all sense of propriety was thrown ofT.

The audience were carried away and delighted beyond measure, and swallowed the most idiotic nonsense with the broad grin that seemed to mantle the face of the whole house. Shout after shout went up when the clown sat on the baby and as the cockney swell appeared, extravagantly conscious of his own dignity and Charmed by the effect of his personal appearance, the heartless public sat in eager expectancy, well knowing that some disaster was about to befall him, and when a half barrel of flour was poured upon his devoted head they would burst forth in the most boisterous manner. Any catastrophe that occurred to the police was always hailed with delight.

Why is it that these guardians of our safety are held in such contempt theat* rically? When a double-dyed villain gets his quietus, and the innocent heroine is restored to the arms of the first walking gentleman, we applaud with delight Surely under these circumstances one would suppose it to be our duty to resent any affront offered to the "force but no, the slightest indignity bestowed upon a virtuous policeman, such as the emptying of bucket of water over his helmet, seems to give us joy.—Joseph Jefferson in Century.

The Wnge Earners* Wronjjs. Here, then, is tho wage earners' indictment of tho wages system:

Every man has a right, because he has a duty, to earn his daily bread by the sweat of bis brow. The wage system denies this right to myriads of willing workers. In America, the workingman's Eldorado, wpnrly ,000,000 willing workers were thrown out of employment in 1885. "Enforced idleness," says Carlyle, "is tho Englishman's hell." That system cannot be right which turns 1,000,000 of willing workers in rich America into this hell and locks the door against them. Every man has aright to the product of his own industry under tho wag.} system the greater p/irt of tho products of industry goes into tho hands of tho few tool owners. Tho wealth of this country has increased during the past quartet century from fourteen billion to foi^yfour billion. A careful statistician estimates that tho wages of 5,200,000 unskilled laborers wero in 1884 less than 6C00 a year, While the average wages of workmen engaged in manufactures, including skilled laborers, was trot $846 a year. That system cannot be right which gives the profits of industry to the few and com pels the many to live nlways praying, Give us this day on? 'luily brend.—Rev. Dr. Lyman Abbott in Forum.

A Peculiar Missouri Hon,

In tho spring of 18811 bought a dozen light Brahma hens and one cock, also light Brahma, having no other chickens on the farm. I know tho chickens were pure Brahma. I-noticed one of my young chicks was a very strange looking bird, and as it grew what should have been fnathera were silky gray hairs ns long as my hand, the whole body being completely covered with them, ex ccpt the head, which was perfectly naked, and much resembled a buzzard's head.

She laid quite a number of eggs, many of which I sat, but never could raise any more like her. They would simply bo light Bmhmas, She had no wing feather?, could not fly upon a perch or nest and made a very peculiar noise when trying to cackle. Tho quills in the wing and tail contained a half dozen or so each of long hairs. There were no guineas or any other fowls of any kind on the farm where I bought the chickens. This is the plain unvarnished truth, and I can give yon plenty of proof of the same. The lien lived to be 4 years old.—Livonia Cor. St Louis Republic,

It Is Not Svtaring.

Yon need not have looked severe because I said that I didn't care a dam," said a gruff old senator in conversation with the Sunday school reporter of The Washington Star, "That is not swearing, The expression has very different meaning from what is popularly supposed, and was originated by the Duke of Wellington. A dam in India is the smallest piece of money known, and not to care that much means simply that one is very indifferent That was all the phrase was intended to signify. The word 'dam' from the Latin verb meaning 'to condemn* is a very different thing. Curiously enough, it seems almost invariably to be the first word in our language acquired by foreigners.'

IIuppj- Mountain*.

A senator who not very lofeg since left his place vacant forever, use** often to quote a remark which he once overheard in the White Mountains at a hotel where ho was laying with his family.

On the pia**» one day a jnri msir him said to her companion, & damsel of her own age: •Oh. Marianne, I do think that gown

declaring that they «uclled^sweet to too lovely for any thing.

and it is so appropriate to wear upherer The other smiled self approvingly. "Yes," she said, smoothing down the folds of the frock in qpn«s*l«^«IdotidJBk this gown sets off the mountains better than any other I ever lad on.w—-Youths Companion.

V* SECOND HAND SHOES.

Where They Come From, Where They Are Soli and What They Cort,

Nearly everything is sold at second hand in New York. It is easy to understand why there is a market for finery, for pianos, for jewelry and for clothing, for which prices are' high and vary a great deal, but shoes are sold so cheaply when new that trade in sh^es at second hand should be small. Yet it is a fact that there is a very large trade in second hand boots and shoes, mostly shoes, because boots are worn by few at present The second hand shoe stores are in basements in the poorest quarters of the city.

They are generally in the neighborhood of second hand clothing stores, but are distinct from them. Sometimes, however, bargains in second hand shoes are to be found in second hand clothing stores, but they are odd pairs and an assortment is seldom supplied. On the east side and in the First ward are many second hand shoe stores, and in the bend at Sixth Avenue and Carmine street is quite a colony. Many of them are kept by Hebrews and almost invariably the proprietor is a cobbler, who occupies his time mending shoes, either for his own customers or some other shop. All sorts and sizes of shoes, representing the fashions of the past ten years or longer, may be found for all ages and both sexes. They are kept cleanly blacked.

Many of these shoes are from ash barrels and garbage boxes, having been discarded as past the worth of mending. Abont the 1st of May there is a harvest of old shoes, thrown out by tidy housekeepers and picked.up by the ragpickers, who send them to the second hand shops. Many men buy cheap shoes purposely, because they do not like to wear shoes a long time. They discard them without half soling. As long as shoes are repairable on the uppers they are of service to the second hand men, who patiently patch and mend them and make them worth selling.

Some of the second hand shops are patronized by Hebrews, others by Italians, and some by colored people. Many servants get shoes from their employers and have them mended, thereby getting better articles than they could afford to buy new.

The prices of these second hand shoes are low. It is almost a rule that the price shall be only a trifle more than the cost of mending. Twenty-five cents a pair is not an unusual price. A dollar a pair is a large price. The cost of shoes is one of tho heaviest burdens to poor families. Old clothes may bo hauded down from one generation to another, or made over, but the Shoes require cash outlay all tho time, and the amount of shoe leather that can be stamped out by healthy youngsters is appalling.

There is a steady trade in second hand shoes among peddlers. They eagerly bargain fof old shoes as they travel through the country. Many of the best shoes in second hand shops are bought by colored people who are inclined to be particular about their footwear. In the best second hand stores may be found soiled fancy shoes for women, relics of the stage, or the cast off finery of the rich. Such shoes often reappear in east side ball rooms. Most of the customers of the second hand shoe shops are thrifty persons who have fair incomes, but are saving money for some purpose, and do not disdain to economize by buying second hand articles.-—New York Stm.y

If We Only Knew!

If the high liver knew when to stop eating how much less sure dyspepsia would be. If the popular guest knew when to withdraw how much more regretfully we should see him go. If the politician knew when to retire into private life how much whiter his record wonld be. If we all knew just when to die, and could opportunely bring the event about, how much truer our epitaphs would be. The court fool who prayed, "O God, be merciful to me, a fool!" prayed deeper than he knew, and the man who prays, "O God, teach me to know when I have said enough," prays deeper still.—Chicago Herald.

A New Way to Fish.

tea mode of catchiug fish was invented by a youth in Michigan recently.

He was bathing, when he perceived in the water a little way beyond him a fish of unusually large proportions swimming along within a very short distance of the bank and rapidly approaching him. As he saw the magnificent specimen of the sturgeon species the thought of securing it without the usual implements flashed aero® his mind, and he determined to make one effort to secure the "monarch of the lakes."

As the fish approached the bank on which the boy was standing the latter prepared to dive, and before the sturgeon was quite opposite the youth gave a leap, a plunge and dived beneath the water. Ere the astonished sturgeon could either escape or recover from the consternation caused by the sudden disturbance of the waters he was a prisoner in the arms of the youth, who could with difficulty retain his hold of his slippery customer.

The struggles of the now desperate sturgeon were now pertinacious and nearly crowned with victory, though they became almost entirely ineffectual, and were rendered completely so by the aid of a companion of the boy, who ran to his assistance.

Their united efforts soon completed the victoiy over his sturgeonship, and laid him panting on the bank, a proof of the triumph of muscle.

After resting awhile from the fatigue caused by the combat under water they carried the sturgeon home, where it was weighed, turning the scales at just seventy pounds.—Exchange.

A Transpacific Cable.

The Colonies and, India, of London, says that "the breaking of the Australian cables and the consequent cutting off of those colonies from communication with the outer world for several days emphasizes in the strongest possible way the necessity of constructing an alternative cable across the Pacific ocean between British Columbia and Sydney or Brisbane, The lesson will no doubt not be lost upon our Australian cousins. It is said that her majesty's government baa decided not to share in the guaranteethe companies require in order to effect the proposed reductions in the existing cable rates, and it was hardly ex-* pected that it would do so. It might, however, view with greater favor the laying of tho new line, and the subsidies the colonies are now asked to give for perpetuating for a time the monopoly of the old liue, with assistance from Canada and from tho imperial government, would, it is believed,

permit

of arrange

ments being made for the construction of tho Pacific cable, and probably insure a reduced tariff by both lines."

Preserved In a Salt Sliuc.

Recently a number of dead bodies appeared on the surface, and they were taken out, with considerable danger to those who undertook the task. They were found to be the bodies of Hungarian Honveds, 800 of whom fell in the battle of Viz Akna on the 4th of February, 1849, and instead of being buried were thrown into the salt lake of the mine. The bodies are so well preserved that the wounds which caused death may be seen quite plainly. Two of the bodies are headless.—Cor. London News.

r.lg Chicken !M®.

The citizens of Columbus, Ga., had a big barbecue. Among the novelties was a chicken pie, thus described: "The pie was feet long and 5 feet broad, and as deep as would hold ten dozen chickens. Every chicken had yellow legs, a drumstick for tho babies and a wing for the girls. After the pie was eaten the pan was auctioned off, the proceeds to go to the girl under 15 years of age that brings to the Chattahoochee Valley exposition in November the finest pone of bread baked by herself."

Bear* In Maine.

Or ben Getchell, of Limestone, Me., witnessed a novel sight last week while driving near that village. He came on seven bears unawares, three of them full grown and four cubs quite large. The old ones made for the #oods, but the cubs had their gambols out before they followed. Urben says it was a nice sight, but his hair seemed to grow very rapidly, and raised his hat from its usual place. The bears were seen by two other persons. —Philadelphia Ledger.
