C., had a thrilling experience with a huge moooasin in his room last night about 7 o'olook. Mr. Henderson went to his room after he had finished supper, and was standing near tho bod when sud denly he felt a peculiar motion about his ankles. There wat* no light in thc { room excopt that from a hall light the the room door being partly opes, but from this ho saw a giant snake wind* iug itself about his left log. Ho kioked and scramblod with tho snake Ti iii ho finally landed it somo dis tance from him on tho floor. The reptile made for the lighted hall. Two of Mr. Henderson's friends quickly went to his assistance and the snake was killed in the hall. It was a vi cious anake aud the wonder is that it did not sink its poisonous fangs into Mr. Henderson's leg while it was coil ed about him. How the snake carno to bo in tho room is a mystery.

Now York, July 14.-Before Bailing for London, where he goes as a dole gato to the International Parliamen tary Congress, John. Sharp Williams gave it as his opinion that Roosevelt would consent to run again. "I think," said Williams, "that tho Prosidcnt is planning . it so that he will bo forced to make the raco. The president reminds me of the old Lady cf 8%ragossa, who hung about asking when tho gentlemen wore going to be gin tho kissing, as she wanted to be ?hero." Continuing, Williams said: "Tho ropublican party haB fallen behind tho mark. Profuso in prom ises it haB not lived up to its promises. For ono thing, the party refused to go into tho question of tariff revision QB was promised. Thero is a fooling of unrest throughout tho country and it growing. A feeling of unrost always acta to thc disadvantage of the party in power. Tho minority leader declared that "Bryan is the logical candidate for tho Demooratio party." Williams did not say wheather be intonded to meet Bryan in Europe. Ho denied tho ro port that he had refused to serve on tho Bryan reception committee which will welcome tho formor Demooratio candidate in Now York next month. - Consul Harris, of Manheim, says that thousands of American agricul tural implements have bceu sold in Southwest Germany, and yet two thirds of tho hay and grain is har vested by hand.
