The managers of the Dime Museum were | gen | that the snake was actually in a state of pro- duction of Its young. About ar hour after the first egg was noticed in the den another egz was produced, which was followed by others at short Intervals It is anticipated that the rep- tile will produce nearly seventy ees before it will have laid its full litter. This great snake, a most valuable specimen of its kind, Is doubt= less one of the best ever brouzht to this coun- It was captured at Sanzabunz, thirty- i north of Caleatta in India, Ms the i J. for the of January last, by Pilling, who made the trip to Ind express purpose of the capture of a When he reached that country he orgati band of natives, and meeting with the specimen n chased her fourteen days In et her into a position to assure her capture without injury. Finally she was driven among rocks, about which were spread nets of raw bulle 8 hide, into which she was 1 by building fires so as to smoke her out. [Inthe struggle that followed it is stated that | two natives were killed. From Calcutta the snake was transported to Liverpool, and from there to New York, where she was exhibited for ashort period. At the time ot the capture of the python it was supposed to be a male; but these late developments demonstrate that such snot the case. At tne time of the capture, jumbo,” been named, weighed 304 EB hs 245 pounds, is twen- ‘ourteen feet when in diameter. On y. while on exhibition in he python produced a litter ot eggs, which was the first instance of a python ever laving while In eaptivity.

In 1850 Dr. Bivelow, of Muskezo Center, was a character well known throughout ilwaukee county. At one time he was well to do, @ physician of no mean preteasions, and quite extensively known asa politician. Polit- ical campaigns called for drinks, and soon Dr. Bigelow was a wreck, mentally and physically. Years rolled by. and his practice was lost, his money squandered, and he became a butt for Jests ofall kinds. At last. in a fit of passion, when goaded to frenzy by one of his tormentors who refused to forego his sneers and jests, he abe an, killing him. He cireuit court before Ju found guilty of manslaughter and four years “in. the penitentiary. left a wife and five children, his home and friends, for a prison cell.

Lard should never be used on a wagon, for it will penetrate the hub, and work its Way out around the tenons of the spokes, thus spoiling the wneel. ‘Tallow is the best lubricator for Wooden ats . and castor oil for iron hubs. but man patent axle greases are also exe being cheaper Just vrease the nd more convenient to handle. will shoulder bands and nut washer into the hub arvund the outside of the boxes. To oil an iron axletree, first wipe the spindle clean, wet with spirits of turpentine, and then apply a few drops of castor oil near the shoulder and end. One teaspoonful is sufficient for the whole. Se al es Casting the Boomcrang. One of the showmen has imported several Australians who are experts with the boomer- ang. The Philadelphia Record describes an ex- hibition they gave in that city, and says: The performance which these curious people gave was that of throwing the boomerang, their native weapons and implement of ‘sport. The boomerangs consisted ot crescent-shaped pieces of very bard and heavy Australian wood, and all of them had sharply rounded edges and ends, but were of differing curves, some being nearly straight. The average length was about two feet, the width the same number of inches, and their greatest thickness not more than half an inch. Standing in the center of the long lot they would zrasp a boomerang by the end, whirl it over their heads and let it go, when it would fly with great speed ina straight line for about 200 feet, then curve upward for nalf that dis- tance and sail away in a directly contrary direc- tion, until it was perhaps 200 feet behind the spot from which it had originally been cast, curve again to the right or left, and finally strike the ground almost at the thrower’s feet, all the while spinning round so rapidly as to look like @ wheel. The men seemed to take great delight in the sport, and, for halt an hour, held the wondering attention of the Invited guests of their manager. and the horde of how- ling small boys who had scaled the fence and run the blockade of the gates. In the marvelous flight of the boomerang the most effective triumphs of the curve pried are fold, and the reason for the contrary curve which it takes has always been a outdone a thousand puzzler to men of science.
