Snk Clear Out School.
Teacher and pupils of the Chestnut
Hill school in Montville, Conn., had a
inght from snakes the othe dav.
School oiH-ned for the summer term, and
all went well till a little girl screamed
and rushed out of the room. She had
seen a snake ieeping out of the plaster
ing near the teacher's desk. The teacher
thought she waa ill and mistaken and
sent her home. Half an hour later a
small boy saw a snake crawl out of a
hole near the chimney and killed it with
a slate frame. The fire in the warm
chimney started up more snakes. Pretty
soon a half awakened reptile five feet
long tumbled out of a hole in the ceiling
ana lanuea with a great thump just in
front of the children's seats. The teacher
stood on top of her desk till the big boys
had settled his account. Then more
snakes began to tumble down, and the
whole school, big boys and all, took to
flight. The teacher refuses to enter th-3
building again, and the Chestnnt Hill
school term is adjourned without date.

An Aeronaut's Intrepid Feat.
The aeronaut. Captain Dworniki, has
succeeded at last in his descent with a
parachute from his balloon at JCatiles.
In ten minutes the balloon, with Dworn
iki depending from it seated on a
trapeze, had reached a height of 5,000
feet. The parachute, when set free was
dashed about by the wind so violently
that often the captain's body touched
its edge, swinging rapidly from side to
side so that the spectators screamed
with horror. However, in five minutes
the descent was accomplished, the aero
naut safely touching ground in th9
street of Merzelina. near the Liona
fountain.
The people stirronnded the captain,
some of them even embracing him, and
when he took refuge in a carriage he
was accompanied in triumph by the
crowd. The balloon was carried over
the Vomero, where it fell into the woods
of the Duke of Salvi, who for some time
refused to give it up. London News.
