"A bout the latest thing among •nake novelties is the bushmaster, writes the London correspondent of the Chicago News. "T his snake, sc- co^ding to Baron E. Leijonhufvud, F. Z. S., F. R. G. 8., is one of the rarest and shiest In the world. It is at home in tropical Sooth Aider* ica and occurs in Trinidad. It has the greatest venom o f any of the large poisonous vipers, and as much aa 350 milligrams nave been extract ed at one time from the bushmaster. The dreaded rattlesnake, including the large diamond, does not give more than half the quantity of ven om. Attaining sometimes’ a length o f twelve feet, the bushmaster is the largest of all the poisonous snakes o f the world. The patters is beautiful; pinkish yellow ground color, with rhomboid regular de signs o f darkish brown, having a tinge o f purple and terra cotta. In each darker pattern is a brighter center, spot. Its Latin name means ‘the silent rattlesnake.’ It waa giv en this name by Linnaeus on ac count o f its tail, which is tapering and horny, made o f the same ma terial as that o f the rattlesnake, but without the segments and con sequently silent. “ Charles Waterton, the famous naturalist, who made three journeys to South America, describes the bushmaster in his notes o f the firat journey in 1812 as follows: 'U n rivaled in his display o f every lovely color o f the rainbow and unmatch ed in the effects o f his deadly poi son, the “ Counacoucbi” glides un daunted on, sole monarch o f the forests. Both man and beast fly be fore him and allow him to pursue an undisputed path. He sometimes grows to the length o f fourteen feet. The bushmaster’ s head is en tirely heart shaped, and when rous ed the .serpent does not get into the position o f the other vipers, but keeps the head slightly raised with. S shaped vertical bends o f the body. In striking it lets out these bends like -a aprjng and can in this way reach very far. Its food is the com mon rat, the rabbit and the agouti. “ In Central America the bush master is called by the Indians the pineapple snake because its scales are round and similar to the outside o f a pineapple. This exceed« delicate snake, which is killed the slightest change o f climate, is not nearly so aggressive aa its small er cousin, the fer de lance, and does not affect materially the mor tality on sugar, bananas or coffee plantations. Matian of tha Sun. Owing to the revolution o f the earth the sun seems to make its daily circuit around us, which of course is not the case. But the sun is revolving about its center quite as truly aa. the earth is. It waa one o f the conceptions o f that most re markable man, Sir John Herschel, that the whole solar system had a motion in space and waa advancing toward a point in the heavens near the star Hercules.- Sir John’ s con ception— aa bold an idea as ever en tered the human mind— is now gen erally accepted by astronomers, and the opinion is quite .universal among them that the entire system ia-trac ing our a curvilinear path -in space, a course around some mighty cen ter, probably at Herculea. .. Putting It In Plain English. On March Ti, 1820, waa fought one of the moat memorable duels in the annals of tfie United States. Commodore Decatur and Commo- dore Barron met on the fatal field near Bledensburg that day. Both participants were wounded, Decatur mortally, dying within a few hours after the encounter. Thé causes which led to the ill feeling between these two naval heroes have never been accurately determined, but it is generally sup posed that Decatur’ s harsh criticism of - Barron on accotait o f the Utter not returning from abroad to take pfirt in the war brought about the breach. Certain it is that Decatur’s words were repeated to Barron, and a correspondence between the two ensued, which probably resulted jin the challenge. The impending dueT was kept a profound secret. Only a few of the most intimate friettds of the respective participants had even an inkling o f it. Decatur was the first to arrive upon the scene. He was accompanied by Commodores Rodgers and Porter and séveral oth er friends. Barron arrived a few minutes later. The combatants bowed stiffly to each other and stood waiting for their friends to measure off the ground and make the final arrangements. “ 1 hope, air,” said Barron as they took their places, “ that when we meet in another world we shall be better friends than we have been in this.” Decatur is ¿aid to have haughtily regarded his adversary a moment and then replied : ^. ‘Sir, 1 have never been your «ne- my.” A moment later the word was given, and two shots rang ont simul taneously. Barjon fell almost im mediately. - Decatur straightened himself, bat the pistol fell from his grasp, and in a moment he was upon the greensward «Tithing in agony. He waa raised by his friends and carried nearer the road, where Barron waa lying- “ I wish 1 had fallen in the serv ice o f my country,” Decatur mut tered, whereupon Barron looked up. Everything has been conducted most honorably,” he laid. Then, turning hia eyes upon De- «tu *; “ I am mortally wounded. Com modore Decatur, 1 forgive you from the bottom o l m j heart.” As Decatur waa being lifted into a carriage Bain bridge, whom De catur had once resetfed from a Moor ish prison, stooped down and kissed his cheek. Decatur was driven slowly hack to the city and carried into his resi dence on Lafayette square, where he died a few hours afterward. Barron ultimately recovered from his injury, but it is said the mem ory o f the fatal duel darkened his life ever afterward. He lived until the year 1851 and had charge of several vessels. At his own request he was court martial ed upon the charges made against him by De catur and exonerated.— Exchange. Fate ef the Chickens. In an Ohio town the African M ethodist Episcopal-church o f that district held a conference, and for. week the “town- was filled with colored pulpit orators. A few days after the conference closed its ses sions one o f the leading colored wo- men o f the town drove out to Pea Ridge to purchase chickens of an old mammy who had supplied the family for years.
