Harper's Magazine A Simko Swallows IllaukeU Snakes have been known to swnllow live dogs and rabbits, says Tho Cloveland Plntn Dealer, but tho narrator of snake stories has nover yet had tho hardihood to uublushingly mako tho nstcrtion thnt snakes can feed nnd thrive ou blankets. Uut future snnku his torians may lucludo that story among the snake's accomplishments, for w Ithout stretch ing the facts a particle tho twcnty-flvo foot snnko now liolug lotted nnd caressed by Mrs. William Doris in tho dime museum got uwny for a light lunch with a doublo woolen blanket. Tho snnku tiad not tasted food for some tlmo, nnd Mrs. Doris left him crawling about ou the t-oft, white blanket, and wlion she returned tho blanket was gono, but his snakeship's tlguro was not qulto as prdtty as it used to be. Ho was nil bunions, knots and bolls, ami bad evidently grown much stouter, when the truth dawned upon Mrs. Doris that tho reptile bad swallowed ber ?o blanket. Medical aid was summonod,aud ho wus given a keg of beer with which to wash the blanket down, and at last accounts ho was as chipper and frisky as a 3-year-old. Tho doctors claim thnt It will bo Just a easy for tho snako to digest the blanket as the live chickens nnd rabbits, feathers, fur, hopes and nil, on which ho lives. A new blanket was furnished him, but this tlmo It was unllcd down to tho tloor of tho cago. Tho blanket has been working Its way down tho snake's body, and lato last night it was In a fair way of gettlug near hit tall. It Is proposed to cousult n surgeon with n vlow of cutting a holo near tho snake's toll and pulling tho blanket out rather than wait for tho uatural process of digestion. A New Start In Sucnr. The sugar industry of this country hoi taken on entirely now start, owing to the employment of now methods In manufactur ing. The methods now In use greatly lescn tho cost of production, and an ordinary crop can bo worked up and sold for flro cents er pound, leaving a handsomo profit for tho pro ducer, Tho now process of manufacture 1 attracting tho attention of agriculturists in tho uorthcra nnd central states, ns well as thoso of tho southern ortlon of tbo country, By tho new method of ovaporatlng tho cane raised In tho northern states can bo modo a profltablo crop, although It contains less sac charine matter than that raised in tho south. Southern sugar cano, under tho present pro cess, will yield about 200 pounds of sugar to tho ton, while tho northern yields about ISO pounds to tho ton. Tbroo sugar manufacto ries aro now being erected In Kansas, with ovory prospect of success for their projectors, and tho Industry will doubtless oxtoud to other state as soon as tho success ot those factorial Is demonstrated.
