deorc) Francis Train's Peculiarities.
George Francis Train's hair is a little
whiter and his eccentricities a little
more pronounced, and he has even in
creased the size of the bouquet that he
wears pinned to the lapel of his whya
coat He is the most picturesque char
acter to be found in Madison aquare,
Now York, on a warm day. It was a
good many, years ago when George
Francis Train announced his determina
tion to shake bands no more and ex
pressed the opinion that the friendship
of children waa worth more than that
of their elders. He has cultivated the
acquaintance of the children who play
in Afadsion square, and every one of
them knows him to be a good fellow.
People who see him regularly have
come to look upon his eccentricities
with little interest, but be is one of the
sights of Broadway to visitors who
know anything about his career. He is
not averse to notoriety and willingly
talks with any one who addresses him.
New York Letter.
Ths Largest Described Snake.
Speke, in his narrative of the journey
to the source of the Nile, describes the
largest snake that haa ever been seen
by man. "I shuddered," be says, "as I
looked upon the effect of his tremendous
dying strength. For yards around where
he lay grass, bushes and saplings in
fact, everything except full grown trees
were cut clean off, as if they had been
trimmed with an immense scythe. The
monster, when measured, waa 61 feet
2 inches in extreme length, while
around the thickest portions of its body
the girth was nearly 3 feet"

And by ensuring this election,
Will rivet on us gold protection'
Above all powers, however great,
Above all odlcrs of state,

To those whose knees refuse to bow,
Are waiting tires of veniream-e now.
Ho fierce the object letion'i grown
That gold's own votaries are o'erthrown.
Mark Haiina Is the great high priest.

To worship at this Mulwh's shrine,

Their homes, their all. their verv blood
To raise this supereillious brood?

In famous deeds, which we'll remember
And emulate, in next November.
