River © AERIAL FIRE TRUCK. A Pretty Jolly Sert of Toy for the Amusement of Bigger Boys, Somewhat different from the toy. en- gine or truck that the small child drags about. on the sidewalk by a string is the aerial fire truck, as it is called, mage for the amusement of biggor boys. This apparatus, exclusive of the tongue, is about six fect in length, the wheels being a foot or more in height, The tongue handle can be grasped by two boys, constituting the team, or 4 ,drag rope can be made fast to it, so :|,that more boys can tally on to whoop the truck along. “ders to*this truck, lying ene upon the There are two lad- other, and carried like the ladders on a fire trnck. There is a seat for the driver, this seat being so made that it fits down upon the top’of and ever the ladders as, they lie upon the truck When the ladders are to be used the seat is thrown off. The two ladders really constitute an extension ladder, which can be rained to a height of about twelve feet, the raising being done without removing the ladders from the truck, by the op- eration of two cranks, Turning one crank raises the two ladders, lying as | they are one upon the other, to the de- sired position upright; turning the other crank raises the ladder that had been uppermost as they lay om the truck upward now i: extension. The aerial truck is sold as a plaything for city use, but it is more often used around ‘a country place, where thers is more -room and oportunity for its use. In such a place, where a lot of young- sters can yank the truck off oa the dead run to’some barn or high well, there to raise the ladders in a great’ hurry, while a boy mounts to the top with a pail of water, they manage to geta “great deal of fun and excitement oui. of ite Criticises Paris - Expo-ttion. M. Paul de ,Cass2gnac, in a leading article in Autorite, says the Paris ex- position is a gigantic failure, which will. have disastrous results not only for the exhibitors, but for Paris trades- men and the. commercial, public. M. de Cassagnac cites an instancé ot bankruptcy in the Rue de Cairo, where ‘one day three fine Egyptian camels were sold for $50,and twenty-five beau- tiful white donkeys, brought at great cost from Cairo, were knocked down at auction for $8.50 cach, when they would yield more than that if chopped up into Lyons sausages. Ile says that the number of awards is out of all proportion to the number of exhibit- ors, and declares that in the face ot _an epidemic’ of exposition bankruptey, , failures, ruins and disaster, this deluge of medals of every imaginable metal. and all this junketing, wining, dining, speechifying ‘and seif-glorification are as grotesque as it would be to decor- ate the morgue with flags and roses and illumine it with a blaze of electric lights. VULTURE AND SNAKE. Fight Witnessed When Mexican Tine Was Being Surveyed. When the international boundary commission resurveyed the territorial lines between the United States and Mexico the naturalists of the party gathered a carload of natural history specimens. Dr. Mearns, who, with his assistants, coiletted nearly 20,000 speci- ens of birds and mammels, tells of in the air betwoen a California re anda rattlesnake, which he saw while exploring the Cocopah mountains of Lower California, It was in the early morning, The big bird had seized the snake behind the head nd was struggling upward with its rrithing, deadly burden, The snake’s ptor appeared aware that its) victim was dangerous. The burden was heavy, as the reptile was nearly five feet long. Tjhe grip of the bird on the snake’s body was not of the best. The snake seemed- to be squirming from its captor’s talons, at least sufficiently to enable it to strike. Its triangular 4 head was seen to recoil and dart at | the mass of feathers. It did this onea or twice, and then witha shriek the vulture dropped its prey. The bird was probably 500 feet or so above cb- servers, .The astonished then were then treated to a spectacle, seidom seen. “Few birds but a vulture could accomplish such a fedt. The instant, the snake :escaped from the* bird’s clutches it dropped earthward like a shot. And like a shot the bird droppod after it, catching it {a midair with a grip that caused death.’ At any rate, ; the snake cersed to. wriggle, and the vulture soared ‘away to a ‘mmounta‘n peak to devour its hard-earned meal. That the snake did fiot, bite the rule ture and catisé its death can only: he explained by the fact that the thick |. feathers probably protected the flesh from the reptile's fangs. “somptuous performance?

Been Wrought. {Specia] Correspondence.) Washington, D. C., Feb. 6. The. south is rallying to the support. of the shipping bill. This fact is likely to prove the pivotal féatureof the struggle over ; the measure. ~ During the debate. on Wednesday. last news reached the capitol, that the Savannah board of trade , had, unanimously adopted resolutions directing its delegates to the coming Brunswick | tion. Maritime conference to favor subsidies. Si-'| “After Bixby had suffered an hour from multancously ‘with the spread of this intelli- |'all the tortures that the pangs of hunger gence through the capitol, it was noticed could inflict, breakfast was announced. The eS incid hat Senator Cla gnest fell upon the food with a vigor that as Byinemer eolncidence that Renatoy CAE ase Boggs,-his wife and the children stare. of Georgia -rese and offered amendments to. ed srt se i 4 | He tackled dish after dish with the relish the bill, limiting.the period of the subsidy | of a starved hobo and had a second helping to ten years, and confining it below a of nearly everything on the table, not to maximum of 16 knots’ speed, instead of 18,-| tention three cups of coffee. es it stands at present in the amended form | * “My appetite hasn’t left me, you see, cf the bill.

Petitions in favor of the The morning was oUF contin bill are on file from more than’ 20 large and important southern associations, in- ” eluding the New Orleans chamber-of com-. merce, board of trade and produce exchange, the Richmond chamber of commerce,. the Norfoik board of trade, the Little Rock board of trade, the-Alabama state grange, the. Tarboro board of trade, the St. Louis merchants’ exchange and the Southern In- dustrial association and the Southern Cot+ ton Spinners’ association.“ In fact, nearly “every southern state has-furnished an em- phati¢ indorsement of the bill by its jag, ing commercial bodigs. _ ‘ In view of this grext and growing seu: ment in their own section, it is not surpris- ing+that the solid opposition of the south- ern senators has begun to weaken, as it has, very perceptibly and decidedly. At first *) these senators—Messrs.: Jones, Clay, Bacon and others—deciared: that they would fight “| the bill by every means within their power, .|. and a disposition to filibuster was manife: 3 early in the week; but the news which they have heard lately from their constituents 4 appears to have altered their minds as to “| the advisability of filibustering. Their pres- ent disposition seems to be to deliver a cer tain number of two-hours’ speeches in the_ ‘negative, and then to let the republicans go ahead: and “assume the full responsibility for the legislation. The alternative poliey— involying filibustering, the failure of all other measures, and.an extra session in consequence—would be a very serious re- sponsibility for the democrats-to shoulder, especially if not sustained by the ees of the southern states. More. than. this, it has been dicesiained that the shipping bill will receive the votes of a goodly number of democrats—at least six and probably seven or eight in the sen- ate, and ten or a dozen in the house.’ That the examination and discussion of the meas- ure have effected a great change’in public sentiment already is unquestionable, and the change is still going on and spreading. As soon as the bill passes the senate and of the business district. Around one o’clo Bixby began to be hungry again, and he threw out divers hints’as to luncheon and its pleasures. Boggs grasped the idea at onee. They were about to start for. the -re¢taurant, when Boggs suddenly remem- bered he had an important engegement the bank, so he posted off, promising tor turn in 20 minutes. It was hal-past two ‘with. hunger and impatience. : At the restaurant ‘they ordered an elab- “orate meal, the piece de resistance of which, was a porterhouse steak weighing about two and a-half pounds. Dixby fe! his usual vigor and Boggs watchéd him eat i piece the huge steak disappeared: down the | New Yorker’s throat until. there was noth- ing left but the bare bone. Vinally Bixby sighed contentedly and, lighting a cigar, “Vleaned be ck in his chair. * 81 fool better now,” he said “I should think you would,’ stir and: fork. “{ do enjoy a good meal,” said Bixb: “esn cially lunch.” “How is that?” inquired his friend, toy- ing with his coffee. “Because lunch was always my best hold,” returned Bixby, calmly. “But I thought—”’ Boggs checked him- self and, calling the waiter, paid the bill. The afternoon proved to.be another whit] of pleasure. Boggs got a eab and drove h friend around to the clubs, the parks, lake front and other points of interest in the’city, halting frequently. to imbibe kigh balls of Scotch. It was seven o’clock when they got back to the house, and as they were climbing the steps Bixby confided ta his friend the faet that he was almost starved. “Great air here for stimulating the ap. petite,” he said. “I never saw anything like it in my life before.” “T’'m glad it agrees with you so well,” re. plied the host, ushering him in. Dinner .was announced‘ 20 minutes after the men arrived, and Bixby’s eyes glis tened as course ‘after course of perfectly 200ked food was spread before him. Never | fore, it seemed to him, had his appetite in’ such trim, or had He so thorough]; enjoyed the operation of appeasing it.
