its !a-t rays were falling full in the entrain-

touched his smooth back; then lowered

it up with a splendid contempt, and blew
back an answering snort of defiance.
'The does gathered close together and
stole surreptitious glances of admiration
at the intruder, who. with lowered
sconce, advanced toward his challenger.
I felt my pulses tingling at these signs of

had r.. pa rated them, for they fell on

UENNESSrS LAST FIGHT.
Huge Boa Ce atrlctor Trwimm m
XVlmg mmd Other TUO's.-
A wagon carrying a long box came
lumbering over the Brooklyn bridge and
there was something about the box so
distinct from other boxes that a bridge
policeman questioned the driver as to its
contents.
The man's answers being unsatisfac
tory, the guardian of the peace proceeded
to investigate on his own account. After
considerable exertion the lid was re
moved, and the policeman gave a yell of
fright and nearly fell off the wagon.
The horse, looking around, probably saw
what the policeman saw, for it too gave
a snort of terror and dashed down the
roadway.
The object that occasioned the dis
turbance was nothing more nor less than
a huge boa constrictor, which, as the lid
of the box was opened, elevated its head,
- gave a hiss or two, and, rising some four
feet from the box, seemed rather to enjoy
the situation.
By some happy accident his snakeshJp
was jolted back into the box and the lid
was secured. The driver meanwhile,
nearly paralyzed with fear, managed to
retain his seat long enough to reach a
papier mache maker s shop up town,
where he delivered his load to the occu
pants of the place.
It must have been a horrible looking
monster, as it was not long before the
men in the shop came flying out of the
place as if in deadly terror or their lives.
"What's broke looser I asked a man
standing near, as I happened to be pass
ing the place at that moment. I then
recognized in the person addressed the
manager of an uptown dime museum.
"The jabberwok," said he, as If the
jabberwork was some well known spe
cies of beast or reptile.
"What on earth," I asked. "Is a jab
berwok? "Wait and you will Bee," he responded,
lie then took a large sponge, saturated
it with chloroform from a bottle he car
ried in his pocket, and placing the
sponge at the end of a long stick, cau
tiously opened the door of the concern
and inserted the stick.
There was a sudden movement inside.
the 6tick was apparently seized from
within and suddenly withdrawn by the
man outside, minus the sponge.
It s all right now" said the man, en-

and finally, beixnr reassured, entered and
saw the occasion of the fuss. It was a
huge snake, some thirty-five feet long,
lying apparently asleep La the middle of
the floor. It had evidently swallowed
the chloroformed sponge, as I did not
see it.
Inside the shop also were a number of
papier mache wings, fins and other un
couth adornments which. I was in
formed, were to be worn by the stupe
fied reptile. In fact, the manager pro
ceeded to ad just the things, and wnen
the entire accouterment of horns and
wings was adjusted the combination
was horrible looking beyond description.
"This," said the manager, "is a repro
duction of the Chinese jabberwok or sea
serpent, and I intend to exhibit hm as
such."
It would be well, therefore, for all per
sons addicted to alcoholic stimulants to
avoid the place, as a sight tt the monster
might induce "snakes" of a character
even more horrible than the one on ex
hibition. New York Herald.
Vmt Ileoneuj, U Old Freighter,
Thirty Indiana Ills Winchester Flay
Out A Boston Tenderfoot Who Bad
Grit at the Pinch.
Quite direct runs the old trail south-'
ward from Arkansas City, Kan., to Okla
homa City. Along this trail the travel
er's eager eye beholds a monument
erected out of native stone. Ilere lies
the body of brave Pat Ilennessy, who
was murdered by the Cheyenne Indians
in 1870. Many are the tales told of Pat
and his many narrow escapes from the
red devils of the plain. Of these it is not
the purpose to speak at present, but to
record his last great fignt, where Pat
proved himself a very Uatling gnu of
death to his implacable foes, fat well
remembered as an old time Fort Kill
freighter, and at the time of his tragical
death was on his way from Caldwell,
Kan., to the fort with six wagons and
three trail wagons. With him were
three men. One of these, a passenger,
a tenderfoot from Boston, had a great
desire to kill an Indian. John Korison
was his name. lie little knew how soon
he would get more killing than ho want
ed and undergo an experience seldom
equaled in border tragedies.
THE BOSTONIAN'S UNERItlNO FlllE.
One afternoon, shortly after they had
fone into camp, they were attacked by a
and of 300 or 400 Chevenno braves with
all the suddenness and terrible ferocity
peculiar to Indian warfare. Ilennessy
saw them coming and instantly ordered
the men to run for a canyon just west of
the trail. They misunderstood the direc
tion, and instead of west took the trail
north. The mistake hastened their doom.
With wild yells of savage delight the
Indians circled around the three men.
Korison was left behind in the race, lie
saw Indians r a every side. 'o chance
of escape, death certain. His alarm was
over. The tenderfoot wasa man. With
a rapidity that indicated a previous train
ing, ne raised his Winchester and fired
A boat Diamond.
A diamond, beside beine the aueen of
gems, is positively ine most beauuiul
thing that nature has ever conceived.
When art reveals its hidden perfections
it is the only "thing of beauty'' that "is
a joy forever," as it Is practically in-
uesirucuoie. nine wui aim toe luster
and wear away the fiber of gold, but the
diamond will go on sparkling for all
time. For aught wjs know the diamond
that sparkles on the white fingers of tho
belle of today may have scintillated as
the eye of some Hindoo god thousands
of years ago. Most people imagine
that diamonds hare a classification
like other commodities, worth so
much per carat, according to per
fection, brilliancy and purity, run
ning through say a dozen grades, but
there Is no greater mistake. Strange as
it may seem to tho uninitiated, no two
diamonds are exactly alike, but each lias
a virtue and a value peculiarly its own.
It is just as rare to 6ee two individuals
exactly aliko in face, form and feature
as it is to see two diamonds. The idea,
also, that a dealer in diamonds can tell
by looking at a gem its exaefvaluo is all
nonsense. A diamond has to be studied.
While the aid of a glass will help to dis
cover the slightest flaw or imperfection,
it does not bring out its true value by a
long way. Men who handle money con
stantly can detect a light coin by simply
handling and examining casually, but a
fine diamond has got to be studied from
all points before a safo estimate can be
put upon ita value. Shape, uize, perfec
tion of cutting and such matters cut an

too, for five painted warriors had gone
down, their death cry ringing out and
mingling with the dog like snarls of

white men fell.
Old Pat saw the fight from his retreat
in the rocks. His mind had undergone
a great change in regard to the man from
Boston, and as the savages rushed in to
scalp the three fallen men bis own deadly
Winchester came to his shoulder, the
sights caught the dusky form of a big
Indian just in the act of scalping Korison.
The rifle belched forth its messenger of
death, and a red fiend sprang high into
the air, then sank down, still ana dead.
It was not that fiend of the plains, Black
Scar, but another redskin, who, rushing
forward to try for the scalp of Korison,
met his own well deserved fate from the
sure aim of Pat. With yells of fury, the
Indians left the three prostrate forms to
attack their more formidable enemy, and
from the belts of three bucks there
dangled the scalps of three whites.
