A STORM IN THE JUNGLE. It Comes With a Roar Like That of a Giant Waterfall. People who have never been in a jungle talk of the sky as a painter talks of the horizon or a seafaring man of the offing—as if when you wanted to see it you only need use your eyes. But in the jungle you don't see the sky—at least you only see a few scraggy patches of it overhead through the openings in the twigs and leaves. Neither do you feel the wind, bolwing, nor get burned or dazzled by the sun, nor even see that luminary except by momentary glimpses about midday, from which it follows that a jungle man does not usually pretend to be weatherwise. If he does he is even a greater humbug than the rest of the weather prophets. On the afternoon about which we are speaking I remember setting forth on my walk in the still glow of the tropical calm and wondering rather at the intense stillness of the surrounding forest. Then the air grew cooler and the green of the foliage in front seemed to deepen, and presently there was a sound as of a giant waterfall in the distance. Waterfalls do not, however, grow louder every second, whereas the noise in front did so. Then there was a loud, angry growl, as of a dozen mons. A minute more and the whole jungle began to roar as if fifty squadrons of heavy cavalry were coming up at a gallop. Then came a drop of rain and a peal of thunder which seemed to make the world stop. Then the storm began. The sky above darkened; the trees clattered; the brushwood beneath hissed and bowed itself. A deluge of raindrops blotted out the narrow view. Down it came, soaking through the densest leaves under which one fled for refuge, striking the grass and sand with millions of dull thuds, dashing furiously against the leaves as if they were so many hostile shields, streaking the air with innumerable perpendicular lines and hurling itself down with the force Special Session Oakland, May 29.—Government call a special session of its lature to convene Saturday at Sacramento.

A deluge of raindrops blotted out the narrow view. Down it came, soaking through the densest leaves under which one fled for refuge, striking the grass and sand with millions of dull thuds, dashing furiously against the leaves as if they were so many hostile shields, streaking the air with innumerable perpendicular lines and hurling itself down with the force of bullets. In such a downpour one may as well walk and get wet as stand still and get wet. Unfortunately one did not know where to walk to. The "circumbendibus system" presupposes the fact that the wagon wheels and bullock tracks can be seen and noted, but when the cart track is no longer a cart track, but "all turned to rushing waters," such tracks cannot be seen, and unless you have a pocket compass you may as well try to fly as to get back to where you came from. When one reads of travelers lost in the backwoods, they always steer by the sun—and probably very badly—but when there is no sun what are you to do?—Slam Press. The Ice of Greenland. The largest mass of ice in the world is probably the one which fills up nearly the whole of the interior of Greenland, where it has accumulated since before the dawn of history. It is believed to now form a block about 600,-000 square miles in area and averaging a mile and a half in thickness. According to these statistics, the lump of ice is larger in volume than the whole body of water in the Mediterranean, and there is enough of it to cover the whole of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland with a layer about seven miles thick. If it were cut into two convenient slabs and built up equally upon the entire surface of "gallant little Wales" it would form a pile more than 120 miles high. There is ice enough in Greenland to bury the entire area of the United States a quarter of a mile deep.—London Globe. A Dowry on Approval. A curious custom prevails among Roumanian peasants. When a Roumanian girl is of a marriageable age, all her trousseau, which has been carefully woven, spun and embroidered by her mother and herself, is placed in a painted wooden box. When a young man thinks of asking to be allowed to pay his attentions to the girl he is at A Dowry on Approval. A curious custom prevails among Roumanian peasants. When a Roumanian girl is of a marriageable age, all her trousseau, which has been carefully woven, spun and embroidered by her mother and herself, is placed in a painted wooden box. When a young man thinks of asking to be allowed to pay his attentions to the girl he is at liberty at first to open the box, which is always placed conveniently at hand, and examine the trousseau. If the suit is satisfied with the quantity and quality of the dowry he makes a formal application for the girl's hand, but if, on the contrary, the trousseau does not please him, he is quite at liberty to retire. Man and His Valet. "I never saw a man so entirely dependent on his valet." "Quite helpless without him, eh?" "Quite helpless. Mabel told me that when he came to propose he brought his valet with him." "What was that for?" "Why, when he reached the proper place his valet spread a hemstitched handkerchief on the floor for him to kneel upon."—Cleveland Plain Dealer. He Wasn't Acrobatic. Miss Prue Dent—Papa says you are improvident and that he will never consent to my marrying a man that is unable to make both ends meet. Orrville Harduppe—Well, I'm afraid I shall never be able to do so. I'm no contortionist. Good evening. — Pittsburg Dispatch. The wise man is he who asks a great deal of advice and takes a very little of it. Special Session Island, May 29.—Gov. Pardee will hold special session of the State Legislature to convene Saturday, June 2, Sacramento. Simultaneously, the week of legal holidays will cease on Friday. The official proclamation is being issued and will be issued in time this week for the assembling of the Legislature on the date selected, provided it shall occur to compel a post-ment of the call. It is understood that all will follow almost identically with the lines of the San Francisco Committee's report on legislation, which was made public through the today. It is important on the list of bills that must receive early consideration for the extra session is one providing extension of the statute of limitations six months. General opinion among legislators who have been in presence in Oakland of late is that measure will be taken up as soon as Legislature is organized Saturdays rushed through. With the cessation of legal holidays, any proposed, the Legislature will move by Monday, or, if necessary, it may Sunday and pass this important matter so that on the first business Monday, June 4, since the fire, the motion will be in force. Of the chief purposes in calling holidays was to prevent the out-of-matters in the disturbances arising from the fire. The Gov.-has reached the decision, it is stood, that conditions are such the necessity of further legalholiday meet the situation has passed. Extension of the statute of limitations protection will be ample for less and legal interests.

In the Sarawak Gazette is an article on the snakes of that part of Borneo. Of the poisonous reptiles it says: "The cobra (Naja tripudians) is a black snake which raises its head to strike when irritated, at the same time expanding the hood at either side of the neck. It spits at intruders and hisses like a cat, whence it is known as "ular tedong puss;" in some parts, too, as "tedong mata harl." The word "tedong" in Sarawak is apparently applied to all large snakes which Malays consider to be poisonous, and, as our Malays are but ill acquainted with these animals, quite a number of large Packing House Horrors ago, May 28.—It is said the reNeill Reynolds, government on the packing house industry of matters in the disturbances carose from the fire.

It is very fond of pigs, but varies its diet by various animals, including even children. The oil of this snake is used by Malays as an embrocation for bruises. The other species of python, Python curtus, is interesting in that its flesh tastes like that of fowl—at least, so Dyaks say, and they are authorities on snake flesh, for they eat a number of the large snakes."
