Just sevcrnl shades removed from the chameleon fad Is the Idea of wearing snnko skins for neckties , but the fashion Is grow ing In Baltimore. It promises to become quite the proper caper to be seen In Im maculate morning suit of the latest London cut , with the tanned cuticle ot n three-foot reptile neatly tied around the snowy "choker" collar , or whatever other style of linen neckwear happens to be the rage. The fad will never become generally violent , says the New York Recorder , tor fine snake skins come high , and the crop may thin out so ns to let the West Virginians , who make n business of catching the possessors of variegated outer coverings , create a corner In the market nnd coin n fortune. To bo In the swim nowadays and have the swagger tiling In neckties n Baltimore man must not only wear a snakcskln , but the cuticle of n "rattler" of about 30 years of age. The peculiar color of the- rattler when he has passed In his checks and gone to snake ce lestial spheres , Is what makes the skin more valuable than when his fangs are still doing the poison business at the old stand. The necktie must be that of a snake of age , standing and family , for a young scion of the house of rattlers doesn't seem to pos sess all of the qualifications as to color and durability of hide the head of the house can lay claim to. Presumably It's because a snake ot three decades or so has been through all of the different kinds of dissi pation known to the reptile world , and his physical hide Is cognizant of no more com punction than his moral nature. Then an old rattler Is generally larger than a young chap , and n tie about a yard In length Is bound to bring more In the market than a whipper-snapper snake could show before he reaches his majority. No other kind of a snake Indigenous to this section of the coun try would answer the purpose half as well as u rattler , because but few varieties at tain his length and Falstafflan girth , ex cept the copperhead and black snake , and their colors , while brilliant enough during life , are not of the right shade after the tnnndr has had his Innings. A copperhead skin assumes too much of a dull brown to harmonize with odd Ideas In neckwear , and the black fellow well , his hide might answer for a seedy Individual's mourning tie but nothing else. The rattler's color when all the fight has been taken out of him and his remains have been subjected to the process that prepares them for men's furnishing use. Is something on the very dull gold or ecru order. The black rings show distinctly and they lend the odd effects that has so captivated the swells. Then when a back and lining have been put on the skin the tie Is ready for use , but they are worth an even $3 any day , counting $ > 50 for the skin , which Is the average price of a rattler of thirty years' standing. Including all the trouble , the catcher and tanner combined have had to take. GENERAL KETCHTJM'S PET. IlcmllnK Off a Veto of a Vulilte llutlillng Itlll. Among his many admirable qualities , says the Washington Posit , Congressman Dunphy Is a charming story teller , and many a mid night supper nt Chamberlain's has been en livened by his charming stories , apropos of which Is the following : In the FIfty-llrst congress Mr. Dunphy had for his neighbors both tenants of the Cherokee Strip and General Ketchum of New York , who represented , among other Interesting communities , the city of Hud son. - It had been the general's custom during the many years of public service as congressman to Introduce , and uni formly fail to pass , a certain bill appro priating $300,000 for the erection of a pub lic building at Hudson. This measure was the general's one ewe lamb In legislation , and he went back to his constituency year after year sad at heart at Its , repeated failure to become a law. Uut at last , In the Fifty- first congress , he steered the bill safely through all the dangerous shoals and cur rents , and finally It bad actually passed both houses of congress. The general was In an ecstacy. lie had gained the crown of his ambition. But Just when his felicitations were liveliest he began to hear disagreeable rumors of an Impediment at the white house , and one day he leaned over his seat toward Mr. Dunphy , and. "Dunphy , " he said , In his shrill , tcnor whlsper , "do you know , Dunphy , that I believe the old man's a-goln' to veto that there bill o' mine ? " " " exclaimed Dunphy Incredulously "No , , , "you don't say ? " "Yes , I do , Dunphy , I think he's a-goln to do It. " "Who says so ? " ' "Well , a lot of them' fellows who all the time knows things. " "Well , why don't you go see him ? " "That's what I'm goln' to do. " The next morning the general arrived nt the house late , and with an expression of countenance lugubrious If not exactly tragic. "Well , general , have you seen him ? " asked Dunphy. "No , " said the general , shortly. "Why , not ? " "Well , I went up there , nn' I see Halford , an1 I says , s'l. 'Llge , ' s'l , 'what's a-goln' to happen to my bill ? ' s'l. Ho says , s'he , Tin feared It's struck a snag , ' s'he. 'What ' ' ' ' s'he. 'Well ' s'l 'I want for ? s'l. 'Dunno , , , to see Harrison , an' talk It over , ' s'l. 'You can't see him , ' s'ho.

' Otto's mental condition Is dark ami terrible , lie lives since his accession , us he Mad lived before , shut up In the small pnluce of Purstenrcld , about two hours distant from Munich. Of late years his malady han taken the form of stupor , though there are still occasional outbreaks of violence. There was from the beginning no prospect of recovery or even of Improvement in hla case , although it was foreseen that his merely animal existence might continue for a long time. He occu pies a suite of apartments on the ground Hoer , the doors of which , ns well us the out side door leading Into the garden , nre always left open tn the daytime , as a closed door Immediately excites his rage. He seems suspicious of restraint , nnd lilx attendants conceal aa much as possible nn appearance of authority over his movements. Once he broke all the front windows of his apart ments , and since then the glass hns been protected by wire , and otherwise there Is nothing to Indicate that a lunatic Inhabits the premises. The rooms nre handsomely furnished , and everything that can amuse the patient is promptly supplied. The king Is always dressed In black. His beard Is very long and thick , and he will not nllow It to be trimmed. He often washes his face nnd hands , but can seldom be persuaded to take a full bath. He Is ex tremely fond of cigarettes and smokes nbout | thirty n day enough In Itself to make him crazy and keep him so. Kvery time ho i lights a cigarette he burns a whole box of { matches , nnd seems to enjoy the noise and name. He often walks out In the park , , but Is very unwilling to drive out , probably be cause it annoys 111 in to be looked nt by the j people In the road. The sensational re ports which appear occasionally In the pa pers concerning King Otto are for the most part false. The truth Is , he has no marked desire for anything. His gaze Is generally fixed on vacancy , and he docs not appear to recognize even his servants , excepting an old \\oniun who has charge of the silver. Ho has known her all his life ; she used to carry him In her arms when he was a baby , and It is touching to see how the last faint raya of his fading intelligence rests on her alone. When he sees her he calls her name in a loud tone , and orders her to bring him a glass of beer , or whatever he may happen to think of , but he soon forgets what he has said and relapses Into his usual state of apathy. Two -of the most prominent physicians of Munich arc in attendance on alternate weeks , and every Sunday the director of the insane asylum visits the palace to examine him and make the medical report. At rare In tervals the king speaks coherently to his attendants , and it is said that soon after his accession to the throne he remarked to a lackey , "Henceforth you must address me as your majesty. " Butnthls story does not ap pear to be well founded , and It Is certain that when Princess Theresa went from the death-bed of the qucten-mother to apprise the son of his loss , he showed no signs of com prehension , and was unmoved by the grief of the princess , whose tears were doubtless more for the living than for the dead. Although KingOtIO Is unable to recognize his relatives , attendjfntslor friends , and re mains for hours motionless In his padded room , he has lucid , jntqrvnta. Not a great while ago , he sudd n 'Vecognlzed his at tendants and became cognizant of his lofty position. A cavaliei' about the castle asked him 1 ( he did not \vlli to sluw hlmsolt to his subjects In Munich. "Gladly , glmlly , would I go to Munich. " he replied , with n look of Irrepressible * ad- nrM In his eyes , "but my people wish to see a Well king , and I mil nick. Yen , yes , yes , 1 am sick , nnd these tcirlblo fancies will not leave me " Upon another occasion ho demanded sud denly that his attendants take him to hlx capital. In order to avoid an attack of violent lent excitement , probably in case of a re fusal , a court carriage was summoned to the ensile steps , The king , ono of the phy sicians , nnd an attendant clad In royal livery , to avoid suspicion , entered the coach , which started on Its journey , hooking out of the window , the king saw a meadow al most covered with variously lined flowers. Ho expressed n desire to gather a bouquet to present to his mother , nnd the coachman stopped while he plucked the flowers. Hut the work was too tiring , nnd he returned to the carriage completely exhausted. Ho was taken back to the castle and placed In bed. When he awoke the following morning his reason was again clouded , nnd he had en tirely forgot the Journey to Munich , AND IT WAS WATER.

"Well , I didn't stay long , for the people ot Maine object to drinking , and my habits are not strictly temperate. " "Clot n Jag , " observed the reporter. "Not at all , sir.

Then , sir , In less than two minutes afterwards I raised a glass of water to my lips , blew across the top of it , said 'Hero's luck , ' and tojsed It off with that grace and abandon which you know so well.
