Confronted by a Monster Snake. TH CAPTAIN WAS SCARED, BUT THE PYTHON WAS SECURED.

(From the New York Herald, Avg. 24.)

The monstrous python which has had full and complete charge of the main hold of the little barque Monrovia for the past four months, was captured on Wednesday night by William Kimbel, a porter em- ployed at No, 60 South Street, by the use of chloroform. The snake was finally con- fined in a strong box and removed to the rae deck.

he vessel sailed from the port of Mon- rovia, Africa, early last April, with a cargo for New York. Captain Rogers was in command on that voyage, and purchased from a party of natives several large py- thons. The boxes containing the snakes were placed in the hold before the vessel left port, but, after she had been at sea about a week, the captain thought it bet- ter tohave them ondeck. While the crew were engaged in the work, one of the boxes

fell through the hatch into the hold, and , its occupant, one of the largest of the py- | thons, twenty-five feet in length, was libe- rated. The hatches were battened down and nothing more thought of the matter un- | til this port was reached. The captain sup- | posed the snake had gone overboard. No- | thing was seen of the snake during the un- |loading, after which Captain Rogers left her and Captain Chase took his place. Cap- tain Rogers neglected to speak to Captain Chase about the snake, and the latter went rummaging around the piles of rubbish that had accumulated in the hold without the slightest sense of danger. Words can hardly express his surprise when he, pulled a pile of old canvas out of acorner and a ; monster snake raisad his head about three ‘feet from the deck and calmly gazed into {the thunderstruck Captain’s eyes. The , Uaptain is a man of action. He dropped | the tools he carried and ran up the ladder. Captain Chase said yesterday: ‘‘I had ‘just pulled the pile of old canvas to one side when the snake rose up and looked me ‘full in the face.

When Kimbel j}went down into the hold the snake was coiled up in a corner and he simply threw 4 lot of canvas saturated with chloroform over it, and in a few miautes with the help of acouple of fellows deposited it in a ti The snake has not dired for about five months, and probably would not hesitate tu 'swallow a man before taking another long sleep.

Bride Dressed in Man’s Attire.

|NONEL TOUR OF AN ELOPING SAN FRAN- CISCO COUPLE.

Denver, Ool., August 25.—A newly married couple is at the present time en- | joying a novel bridal tour. Several months ; ago Charles Fisby, a clerk ina San Fran- cisco store, while attempting to. board a ferry boat, made a mis-step and fell over some ropes into the arms of Mary Rath- burne, daughter of a retired merchant. With an apology the young man departed. A few nights afterwards the pair met at a party, and from that time on a friendship sprung up between the two. Finding the girl’s parents were opposed to the match, the couple a few weeks later eloped and were married at Sacramento. The young man having only $33, told his wife if they could manage to reach New York all would be well, as he had wealthy relatives there. This proved satisfactory. The girl took off her dresses and adorned herself in man’s attire. Their adventures since then would fill a book. From Sacramento the pair beat their way over the Central Pacific road, by riding on freight trains and on the trucks of passenger coaches. A week ago Ogden was reached, and, being desir- ous to see some of Colorado’s scenery, the Rio Grande was selected. After haying been put off a half dozen trains the couple reached Denver yesterday morning. As it happene*, the Union Pacitic ran a Grand Army excursion train out last night and by strategy the couple managed to go on the train in the capacity of porters. By to- night Omaha will have been reached, and it is more than probable that the pair will get through to Chicago, reaching New York next month. The girl is extremely pretty, scarcely 19, whilo her husband is three years her senior.

A Great Wheat Shortage

Vienna, Aug. 26.—A report just pub- lished shows the Austrian grain yield has decreased as follows: Wheat, 15,000,000 hectolitres ; barley, 12,000,000 hectolitres : rye, 11,000,000 hectolitres ; oats, 11,000,- 000 hectolitres.

VHIcaGo, Aug. 26.—There was a great upheaval in the wheat market to-day, oc- casioned by the receipt of what was claimed to be an authoritative forecast of the esti-

European wheat crop. The results were so astounding that they were accepted with extreme doubt when first ascertained. Ex- cepting Turkey, Greece, Spair and Portugal, for which no figures are received, Europe shews a full total of 892,357,000 bushels, against 1,124,090,00¢ bushels last year and 1,114,329,000 bushels average crop for five years. This makes an appar- ent European deficiency of 321,742,000 bushels, as compared with last year, and of 222,622,000 bushels as compared with the average of five years.

New York, Aug. 26.—When the alleged estimates of the Vienna Congress became known at the Produce exchange here to-day there was considerable excitement. Grain

and one and a half cents over the lowest figure of the day. settled and peace reigned before the close

Golden Grains. To deal frankly, honestly and{firmly wich all men turns out best in the ** long run.”

It has been truly and tenderly said, ‘*Even that perfect petition, the Lord’s Prayer, gains something from the fact that every man who répeats it remembers that he learned it at his mother’s knee.”

The responsibility of any wrong action begi::s long before the action is committed; it deals with the source and _ the growth of motives. It is not enough tosay we should resist the motive which urges us to do wrong. ‘This is, of course, true; but it is also true that we should not have permitted the motive to attain such strength. We know not what particular temptation may assail us next month or text year; but we can so order our present life as to weaken wrong desires and withdraw the force of evil influences.

THIRTEEN Grave Muistakes.—To yield to immaterial trifles. To look for perfec- tions in our own actions. To endeavor to mould all dispositions alike. To expect uniformity of opinion in this world. To expect to be able to understand everything. To belive only what our finite minds can grasp. To look for judgment and experi- ence in youth. To measure the enjoyment of others by one’s own. To make allow- ances for the infirmities of others. To worry ourselves and cthers with what cannot be To consider everything impos- sible that we cannot perform. Not to alleviate all that needs alleviation, so far as lies in our power. ‘Tu set up your own standard of right and wrong, and judge people accordingly.

Wortn Rememperine.—That the tongue is not steel, yet it cuts. That cheerfulness is the weather of the heart. That sleep is the best stimulant, a nervine safe for all to take. That it is better to be able to say **no” than to be able to read Latin. That cold air is not necessarily “pure, nor warm air necssarily impure. That a cheerful face is nearly as good for an invalid as healthy weather. That advice is like castor oil, easy enough to give, but hard enough to take. That it is not enough to keep the poor in mind; give them something to keep you in mind. That life’s real heroes and heroines are those who bear their own bur- dens bravely, and give a helping hand to those around them. That hasty words often rankle in the wound which injury gives, and that soft words assuages it; for- giving cures, and forgetting takes away the iurt.

Before slates were in use people multi- plied on the face of the earth.

A boy’s description of having a tooth pulled expressed it about as well as any- thing we have seen: ‘* Just before it killed me the tooth came out.”

Winks—** Has your wife a cheerful dis position?” Blinks—** Oh, yes; very cheer- ful. Last night when | was dancing around the room on One foot, after having stepped on a tack, she laughed till her sides ached.’

Brown—“Ah, so that is young Jones. What profession does he follow; may | ask?” Smith—*‘tOh, he is in the sugar trade with his father.” Brown—*‘* Ah, in- deed. It’s sanded down from father to son, I suppose.”” Smith thinks it over.

‘** Poor John; he was a kind and forbear- ing husband,” sobbed John’s widow, on her return from the funeral. ‘* Yes,” said a sympathising neighbor; ‘* but it is all for the best. You must try to comfort your- self, my dear, with the thought that your husband is at peace at last.”

In a house in the Highlands the other day a visitor happened to remark that a thermometer—noticing one hanging on the wall—was 4 very useful instrument to have indoors. The mistress of the house re- plied:—“‘Ay, Ay—oor Jeems brocht it in the ither night forthe heat o’ the room. For ma ain part, hooever, 1 dinna see that it makes it a bit warmer.”

Weemin Folks are Fules.—-McTaggart has a brother in New York from whom an American journal is received by the grocer in his Scottish home. One arrived the other day, and Sandy, opening it with alacrity, prepared tu read some of the choicest bits to Kirsty, who was busy with her knitting. ‘‘Eh! bit thae American chiels are awfu’ cute,” he exclaimed ; “here's a doctor in New York says that hauf the weeman folks are fules!” **Well, he’s no’ far wrang,” said Kirsty, quietly, ‘*Dy’e ye say sae/” retorted her surprised spouse. ‘‘ Oo, ay ; mair than hauf the wee- men mairy,” was the answer, and the read- ing was suspended.

Rev. Mr. Saunders, Rev. Mr. Higgins, and Mrs, Higgins, missionaries, told of the work, and Miss Fitch alsc spoke. Rev. G (). Gates called for volunteers for mission- ary work, and one young man and two young women arose.

tev. Mr. Crawley said the Fredericton 'Church had decided to add $500 to the con- vention—they had already given $1,000.
