The markets have been filled with
early fruits such ns only Oregon
knows. Strawberries are about
gone, raspberries, blackberries, etc.,
are plentiful, cherries seem finer

, plentiful.

LONDON BY NIGHT.
Id StrMta ot tho World's Motropoill
aiim with Vlolnu. I'eonl.'.
In the wost end of London tin- eomli
tionol things at ulght would di iRriu'o
any enliffhtoned community. It is al
most impossible Buys the Chicago News,
to pass through some of the most iut.n-
ionable streets without omiist imiu:-u
by hordes of these wratched cniuireiuii
the night, who almost hound down tire
male pssscre by in their desperate ef
forts. The neighborhoods of the great
hotels frequented by American tounntn
are especially infested by sonm of hu
man wolves, wno, in meir i tni.i"...
are ready for anything from persist
ent begging importunities to guvroting
or robbing with violence if the oppor
tunity only presents nseu. a wmim
of weeks ago sn American gentlemen,
who had just loft a lnrp-o hotel it
central London, was suoueuiy m
rounded by a gang of abandoned mcr
and women, dragged into a eonrtway
and robbed of watch, iewelry and
money in a few seconds, and then
kicked into Insensibility.
Complaints have been made by Amer
ican ladies of the annoyance to which
they are subjected here, even when
under the protection of husbands,
brothers or friends, from the import um
t:nB r 'hmfortiiiuitft' women. The
thing has been an open scandal for
years, ana me auinoni ies mivo .,,
seemed powerless to check it.
The spectacle which the fashionable
Piccadilly presents at night has for a
long time past been a disgrace to tins
metropolis. Although it 1b the main
thoroughfare between the loading
theaters and some of the most aristo
cratic districts, it is blocked every
night by rows of women, decked out in
gorgeous apparel and wearing flashing
jewels, lying in wait for clubmen. A
hideous case of depravity was in the
papers a day or two ago. Two young
nnw, arrested for some trilling
i offense while driving with two men in n
cab. The police discover mm cmr
man was the father of the two girls and
that the servant at the house whore
they lived in shame was actually their
mother.
Many are the perils which beset the
unwary American visitor who strolls
about the streets oi iionaon. u ura
iut nf these are the professional
"blackmailers," an infamous gang who
are the pest of the "modern Babylon."
These vultures are oi mm se.e
tn hutide the luckless individual who
gets Into their clutches, lie will be
confronted witn tne niiernnuvra ui
trumped up charges entailing exposure,
dissrace and social ruin or else must
pay hush-money.
Let the American oewore ux sue
young, bright-eyed sirens wno sxroii
demurely about the parks, the leading
thoroughfares, or the quiet ana exclu
sive nooks of the theaters here. These
re some of the baits and decoys of tho
professional blackmailers and have
been trainea u euucuvur, w
guiles and arts, to lead strangers into
snares which will give the wretches
who employ them opportunities oi
blackmailing.

Aftsr Bleeping One Hundred yours It
Crawls Out and I Killcil.
Early in Januaty of the present year
a woodman engaged in chopping -some
oi the monster oaks in the northern
part of the great "Black forest," I'or
many, and who had built a fire afrninst
a large dead log preparatory to partak
ing of his midday meal, was surprised
to sec a serpent ot gigantic proportions
crawl from the kig an soon as the rotten
wood had got well wanned throujrh.
The day was bitter cold and the snaks
only made a few yards over the frozen
ground until his convolutions became
smaller and smaller, until he finally
ceased to wiggle and quietly coiled up
near a large pile of brush.
Tbi. dtiirdv German choDoer. who had
been more surprised thun scared, waited j
until the creature had becom thorough
ly benumbed with the cold and then ap-1
preached and dispatched hui with his j
ax. Measurements showed the slimy j
creature to be twenty-seven feet six ;
inches in length und nearly fifteen inches
through the body in the middle.
Just back of ' the immense head,
which is eleven Indies in length and ui
most as broad, a little gold ring had
been put through the skin, relates a St.
Lonis ltepublic's correspondent. It
was in the form of two rings rather
than one, being shaped not unlike a
figure S. One port of the ring was
through the skin, while the other was
through a hole in a small copper coin
bearing date of 1712. One side of the
coia was perfectly smooth, with
the exception of those Inters and
figures, which had evidently been cut
on it with a pocketknife, the workman
ship heingvery rough: "Louis Krutzer,
B. G. 0 1781." "
Some of the older inhabitants of the
"Black forest" remember hearing their
parents tell of "Krutzer, the serpent
charmer," and they all unit'! in declar
ing that this gigantlo serpent was for
merly the property of thoold 'charmer,"
and that it was ut least one hundred
and fifteen years old when killed oa
