A NclentM Telle About the fir* Serpent- Snake
In Parllrular ami In General.
ff
Washington, August 10.— A Htar re
porter searching for authentic informa
tion concerning the sen serjjent which is
reported to have made its appearance at
several seaside resorts already this sum
mer traversed the gloomy passage unde r
neath the Smithsonian building leading to
the snake room. Within the room sat a
distinguished scientist. It was evidently a
moment of leisure with him, and the re
porter took advantage of it to broach the
subject of sea serpents.
“See serpents,” remarked the scientist;
“why yes, there are a great many of them
if you can only sec them;” and lie waved
his hand about the room towards the
myriad jars In which serpents were coiled
and the dried mid stuued reptiles bung
ing on pegs and other projections about
the room. With such jokes even distin-
uished scientists amuse themselves in
Jieir hours of relaxation. “We have re
ceived a bowling constrictor,” continued
the scientist, observing that the reporter
took in the full meaning of his pun on sea
serpents. “Never heard of u howling con
strictor? Why, that’s tlie snake that sur
rounds an army of other snakes, gets
around them, puts his tail in his mouth,
swallows his tail and keeps on swallowing
it, contracting the ring around the other
snakes, you see, until he cuts them in
two.”
“Have you had any official information
on the subject?”
“We would not have believed it if it had
not been brought to us by a hoop-snake,”
said the learned gentleman. “Tnis hoop-
snake, or horned snake, eamo with its tail
in its mouth. When we took its tail out
we found the dispatch on the end of its
tail telling us about it. The dispatch was
put on tlie end of the tail, and then the
tail in its mouth, so that it would he safe.
Dr. Yarrow, you see, oifered $100 to any
body who would bring him a live hoop-
snake with its tail in its mouth. Did lie
have to pay tlie $100? No, the doctor was
not here when tlie people brought tlie
snake, and they could not wnit for him.
Will he have to pay it? No; the
trouble is, you see, that this was
a jointed snake, and when I went
to touch it it fell all to pieces. It is true
thut a person who could blow on it the
right way might have brought the pieces
together again, it would require some
one with lungs like bellows. We have to
keep track of these matters, you see, for
every little while congress gets up a snake
investigation and expects us to tell all
about it.
“There was a copperhead and a blowing
viper in a box here the other day.” said
the scientist, “and the viper, I think, was
retty well frightened by the copperhead.
pn
Tii
'hero was a water moccasin in tlie box,
too, hut he hunted for a hole and got out of
the way. The viper then blew himself up—
his hinder parts- and flattened his anterior
fourth until lie looked just like a
big paper cutter with u snake’s head on
the end, a flat blade and a big round han
dle. Then he shoved his iiead into the
sand, took on a loud of sand and paraded
around in that way. The copperiiead ac
tually turned pale with fright. The viper
Went about in that way for two days, with
several stories of sand on his bend. If the
copperhead had bitten him he would have
let the wind out of him, just like biting a
bole in a toy bellows. I am sat isfled that
It was nothing but bluster on the part of
the viper. Sometimes fright will lead one
to bluster around."
“Will the bite of a poisonous snake kill
another snake?” asked the reporter.
“Oh, yes, very quickly,” said the natur
alist. “Snakes that eat poisonous snakes
by choice always catch them by the nose,
so they cannot open their mouths. Then
Kiev swallow them, nose mid head first,
.ana the reptile never has a chance to bite.
King snakes, the black snakes with white
marks, do that way. There is another
snake, of u dull lead color, in tlie West In
dies that docs the same things. I found
one of them once which hud swallowed all
it could of a snake much longer than itself.
It made a strange sight—looked like u
snake with two tails. It hud to go around
this way until a part of the swallowed
snake was digested; then it would take
In a little more of it, and so on,
until the whole snake had disappeared. 1
am told that out iti Kansas there are snakes
that catch hold of the legs of land turtles,
or ‘turtles,’ ns they call them here. A
snake will swallow the hind leg oftlie ‘tor-
tie,’ and, of course, cannot swallow any
more. Then the ‘turtle’ goes tramping
shout with the snake attached to his leg,
and using the snake pretty roughly. The
snake cannot let go for Its teeth, whicharc
turned hack or inward, are locked fust. It
keeps its hold until the leg becomes so de
composed that it drops on. That fnct ac
counts for the great number of lame ‘tur
tles’ found in that country. The
bowling constrictors are made
down in North Carolina, I
believe. They are made of moonshine. I
remember a man 1 met down in that state,
a countryman. I asked him if they had
any snakes arouud that country. “Yes,”
he said.‘boa constrictors and anacondas.’
‘What,’ I asked, ‘you do not mean to say
you have seen them wild.’ ‘Oh, no,’ ho
answered,‘theycome herewith the shows.’
Some people see a good many snakes,”
continued the scientific gentleman. “Do
you remember the story of the boy in the
railroad car who had a box with holes in
the cover. A nervous old gentleman who
sat near him thought he had something
alive in the box and felt a little alarmed.
Finally, he poked the boy with his um
brella, and snid: ‘Sonny, what
have you in that box?’ The
boy said: ‘It’s a mongoose, an
animal that kills snakes.” Soon tlie old
gentleman prodded him again with tiis
umbrella and said: ‘You don’t have so
many snakes up your way that you have
to keep an animal to kill them, do you?’
‘V p do:,” have any,'said file boy, ‘at least
I i‘.id aw one, except my brother, who
drinks very hard; he sees a good ninny at
times.’
‘“Oh, hut those are imaginary snakes,’
said tlie old gentleman.
‘“And this is an imaginary mongoose,’
said the small boy. The old gentleman
then viewed the scenery from the window,
■and did not bother tlie boy again.
“Ha ve any of our snakes escaped lately?"
said the scientist, repeating a question of
tlie reporter. “Now we never really had
more than halt a dozen copperheads and
two or three rattlesnakes gi t away, and
that number amounts to little when scat
tered over a big city like Washington. 1
never saw one ot them after they left here,
f hey know me, and 1 suppose get out of
the way when they Bee me coining. But
there are very few of them.”
“Might they not propagate and multi
ply inquired the reporter.
“Ifthey fouml ft gate,” said the scientist,
prop it but 1 never saw one
in that attitude, and the scientific gentle
man, haying used up his leisure time, re
sumed his study.
. ccurrcd some time ago when one of mv
acquaintances, a down town business man,
who has known tlie Central Paeitle
magnate by sight for several years,
yet. never had met him, discovered the
millionaire railroad man on board of the
elevated railroad (rain. This busi
ness limn had bought some of the bonds of
the sail load coni) allies ruled by Mr. Hunt
ington, ami subsuipn utly bad heard re
ports of prospective Interest defaults and
other things that were discouraging. It
occurred to him that it would be well to
go directly to Mr. Huntington and ask him
ror Information, yet not unnaturally lie
was restrained by the fact that he was un
acquainted witli Mr. Huntington, and he
feared that an intrusion mightbe resented.
But Anally lie let business interest outweigh
thoughts of good form, and in another mo
ment he was by the magnate’s side,
if it had been his own clerk whom he was
questioning, my frie nd could not have re
ceived more considerate treatment. Mr.
Huntington nut only set at rest doubts of
the value of the bonds, hind his statements
have since been corroborated by tlie stock
exchange figures,) but he went into details
and explained much that the bondholder
had not before known; and when this one
subject was over there was no attempt to
dismiss his questioner. Instead, the mil
lionaire led the conversation pleasantly
into other channels, and a rare half hour’s
chat that business man had. Still he felt
he could offer but once more to apologize
as he rose to say good-bye as the guard an
nounced his station.
“Don’t say one word about intruding,”
said Mr. Huntington. “I'm glad you spoke
to me.” And lie dropped into reminis
cence with this closing sentence: “When
I used to keep a country store and a cus
tomer came and waked mo up at midnight
I always was glad to go and get what ho
wanted, for I knew no one would come
around bothering me nt that hour if they
didn’t want something pretty bad. It
paid me to be polite and accommodating
In tlie old days, and I guess it pays still.”

Rt. Louis Chronicle.
At one of the transient tallies in the St.
James hotel dining-room this morning,
there sat two guests, one evidently a travel
ing salesman of the Hebrew persuasion,
the other a tall, solemn-looking personage,
dressed like a clergyman.
The two guests talked awhile on Indif
ferent subjects, and then the Hebrew sales
man pointedly asked :
“What house do you travel for?”
“1 represent n gospel house,” quietly re
plied the ministerial-looking gentleman.
“A. Gnusphohaus,” rejoined the Hebrew.
“I don’t know the Arm. Is it a good house
to work for ?”
“I regard it as the best firm in exist
ence.”
“Wlmt do they pay you?”
“I get $800 a year, but the promises for
the future are far better than actual salary.
1 will realize a sure competency after
awhile.”
“Mine front, vill you excuse me if I gif
you a leetle advise,” said the Hebrew,drop
ping his knife and fork in his earnestness,
and using both hands to emphasize his
words. “Don’t you nefer take promises.
Your firm may be a good one, but I tell
you, ns I would tell mine bruoder, dat it
ish best to make no arrangement mit a
firm ‘nitout a written contract. Don’t you
nefer trust in promises. Always take the
cosh, and you are safe.”
The ministerial-looking gentleman quiet
ly fell to eating.

says: “Having received so much benefit
from Electric Bitters, I feel it my duty to
let suffering humanity know it. Have had
a running sore on my leg for eight years; my
doctors told me I would have to have the
bone scraped or leg amputated. I used,
instead, three bottles of Electric Bitters
and seven boxes of Bucklen’s Arnica
Salve, and my leg is now sound and well.”
