Snakes as Articles of Diet.
Italians, as is well known, are partial
to harmless Bnakes, and have no objection
to eat them cooked. A frittnra,
composed of the oommon wood serpent's
flesh, is even regarded as a dainty
by the lower orders in Rome, Florence
and Naples, and is often served up to
Ahem in their dingy restaurants.
Parisians of the inferior classes are
also great eaters of fried snakes, but
.unwittingly so, for the reptiles are
palmed off on them as eels. Thus the
apparently appetizing dishes known as
matelotte d'anguille and anguiUe a la
tartar are often in low eaten houses
nothing but harmless snakes, caught
in the wilder part of the Vincennes
wood and brought up to a special
, < market near the Place de la Republique.
It is probable, however, that even if
the members of the poorer classes here
, who occasionally indulge in fried or
etewed eels were apprised of the fraud
practiced at their expense th6y would
evince no loathing nor even lack of
appetite, seeing that they are ready to
devour not only horse flesh, but meat
of mule, donkey and dog any day in
the week.?London Telegraph.
Tore Down Homes to Buy Food. |
A Methodist missionary at Pekin
xmtes to the Missionary Society's headquarters
in this city that the famine '
in North China reduced the people in '
some sections to such strkits th?t in i
many cases they toie down their '
houses to sell the lumber for food.
"I have never witnessed such abject
misery," he says, "as I have seen in
the Pei-Yin district the past winter.
The people have largely subsisted on
the 'shin-pai-tzu' or darnel or tares, i
After partaking of it one has a feeling
of satiety, but it does not nourish or \
satisfy hunger. <
"I have near mo a3 I write a piece
of bread such as is found in their
homes, made of tares grass. t
"The almost annual suffering
throughout this district is caused by
.ho Hnnir-Ho. or Muddv River, the
' bed of which, on account of constant
silting and dikings, has been raised
some fifteen or twenty feet above the i
surrounding country. A break in its
banks causes widespread suffering." ;
By means of funds sent him, this J
missionary was able to give some relief '
to 110 families.?New York World.

Blasting Kills the Chickens.
} The contractors who are engaged in
} building the great drainage canal for
s Chicago have gotten into trouble more
serious even than the strikes with
5 which they have recently been strugj
gling. It is with the wives of the far^
mers who live in the vicinity of the
. big ditch. Since work on the canal
was begun not a chicken has been
hatched within a mile of the scene of
operations. As a great many of the
residents of the neighborhood are engaged
in raising fowls for the Chicago
market, their loss is very serious indeed.
One hatchery near Lockport
has lost over 600 turkeys, to say nothing
of innumerable chickens, ducks
and geese. It is claimed that the
shock produced by the continuous and
heavy blasting is responsible for the
failure of the eggs to hatch, and the
farmers propose to bring in claims for
damages against the drainage .commission.
If these are not allowed, they i

courts, and are very confident of winning
the suits. It will be an interesting
and novel question for the courts
to decide, and seems likely to be a

that was not foreseen. ?Picayune.

eagle and a large tomcat. "The proud

i the cat while hunting in the field, and
succeeded- in fastening its talons into
the animal's back, when the battle
immediately began and was continued
amid the terrific yowls of the cat and
i the screams of the eagle. It was a

and while it continued the feathers

times in the air, a hundred feet at
each effort; but the attempts to get
away with its prey were futile, as the
weight of the cat and its fierce struggle
for life invariably brought the eagle
to the ground again, where the battle
was repeated with nearly the same result.
In the final bout, which took
place on terra firma, the eagle threw
up the 6ponge and flew laboriously
across the river, while the cat, much
worried, made tracks as rapidly as
possible away from the scene of battle.

Farmer Versus Baker.
A certain baker in "business in i
small town in Normandy obtained hii
supply of batter from a farmer in th<
neighborhood. One day he discovered
that the pats, -which were supposed tc
weigh three pounds each, were not ut
to the standard, and further examine
tion revealed a steady diminution ii
the daily provision. At last the bake:
lodged a formal complaint against th<
' j xl ?C~
iarmer, auu uie tuinu km uiuuguu u>,
fore the local court.
"Have you scales?" inquired th<
magistrate.
"Yes, Monsieur le Juge," was th(
reply.
"And have you any weights?" con
tinned the Judge. An answer thii
time in the negative was as promptly
given.
"But how did you manage to weigl
your butter ?" asked the magistrate.
Then the farmer related that eve:
since the baker had taken his butter h<
had returned the compliment by buy
ing his bread. The baker supplie<
him with three-pound loaves, and hi
had used them as weights for his but
ter. ' 'It is his fault, not mine, if th<
weight is not correct," added th<
farmer, who was speedily acquitte<
and left the court in triumph with ar
Ad/tnvf nf fri?nr?H and ftrhnirfirH. SinCl
this trial the farmer is said to hav?
been supplied with more than his du<
provision of bread; but he has takei
good care not to fall into the opposite
error, rud the baker has now his three
poiRnd pats of butter, full weight, bu'
not an ounce more.?London Tele
