GUNTHER, this government {a a modification con- ventlon was made some time ago and refused a critical moment when Gen. Crook had crossed the border. The clroumetances, as they ate explained to an assoolated prees reporter, who called at the legation to-night, are as followe: On the 28th of July, 1882 the Mexican government signed at this city an agreement with the United States government, by virtue of which the regular troops of each country were authorized to pass over the bor- der on the territory of the otherin the pursult of hostile Indians under certaln limitatlons, which were at that time thought convenient and desirable by both coatracting partles, On the 24th of Aprl, 1883, the state department proposed to the Mexican government, through the legation hers, materlal modifica- tlons of the agreement of July, 1882, which were in substance that comman- ders of United States and Meslcan troops be authorizad to changs the terma of the agreement when in their judgment it was advisable, so that the commander of either army might cress the border with his troops to ATTACK HOSTILE INDIANS |at any time. Lenor Rimera, Mex!. can minister, had ed the rerms of the proposition to his government, an th recelved in answer retary of state to the effect that no change In the agreement could be made except In the shape of a new treaty, whioch must be ratified by the Mexloan senate, but that the Mexican government was ready ‘to conslder sll mod- ifigations proposed by the United States, sud wonld accept ‘such #s In their oplnion were calculated to attaln the object of that sgreement which, as they understood !t, was the epeedy destruction of hostile Indlans, I followed the coorse of her eyes, and heaven bethune us an’ evll, what d’ ed Amlistant Diastrict ont, “That big man in the dock, just Dd I T quletly took hold and my husband still snorin’, and I when I whipped the blanket over his head and Ah ha! b'y, 1, Thave you now ot Wid "thas ho set up sach a|the Ralnbow mine during tho past equirmin’ and stragglin’ T thought he | three years has been §200,000.

Some time before Brown's descent cn Harper's Ferry I took to my wife ons day a sketch that I made with a pen- cil In the cars coming from Puint of Rocks to Harper's Ferry. Said I: ‘My dear, here is s gen- ulne pleture of the Wandering Jew.’ ‘Who 18 it?' she asked. ‘I don't know. It was a strange old man_ with fingers like the talons of a bird that I saw talking to two young men. He had the most remarkable head I have looked at for years. Hishair went up like spikes, his jaw and mouth were very strong, and he had an eye that would look you through and through. His nose was like an esgle’s, and there was something very fascinating about him, yet superstitious: and made that sketch of him and called it the Wandering Jew. Ho was talking about sheep-ralsing, and talked very intelligently, too, and I was interested in what he sald, because I thought he might be golng to buy land in our parts. My wife put that ploture away and forgot about it. Suddenly the descent on Harper's Ferry was made. It did not then ocour to me that Brown was the same man I had seen. Bat when he was trled at Charlestown snd stood up to make the speech be- fore sentence was passed upon him. I took the opportunity to draw another sketch of him, By that time he had somewnat recovered from his wound I took the sketch home and sald: ‘There, Mrs. Boteler, you see old John Brown,' ‘Why,’ sald she, ‘I have seen this man before.’ ‘Oh, I guess not,! sald I, ‘Yes, I have.’ She thought about it awhile, and then turned to the drawer where she had put my sketch of the Wandering Jew and drew it out. ‘Yee,’ sald she, ‘here lsthe very man.’ I had made the sketch ot John Brown unwittinfily.” —_— The Fhiladelphia Zoo, Philadelphia Resord, ‘The latest addltlon to the curiosi- ties of the Zoo is an immenase python from India, the largest ever brought to thls country, which has just been placed in a blg cage in the aviary, This monster of the jungles Is over eixteon feet long, and measnres two- thirds of & yard arsund the bod A emaller suake of the same spec! vas purchased in Now York when its com panion beught, and the two im menso reptiles are colled up qaite lov- inglytogether in thelr new home.
