The heights of the Hilda side formed a natural stronghold In the middle ages. There the tlrst Hungarian king was crowned; there the Turkish Janizaries were encamped for the hundred years that the walls of Vienna were an un yielding bulwark asalnst the tide of Moslem Invasion; there In later times the patriots Inspired by Kossuth made n gallant stand.

I'rederlka Hreuier, the Swedish novel ist, had the beauty of "plainness." She was so very plain of face that her ex pression of trustfulness, as though ap pealing to you to llnd some other quali ties In her than mere "looks," shone out with a perfect radiance that ennobled her face and drew friends to her, be cause she bad no other beauty. Hut MIdS Hreuier took pleasure in her well kept hands, of which she used to say, "liven hands have their moments of charm." Willi AiiIhiiiIk mill the 1 1 ii iti it it Vult'c.

"There Is n good deal iihuv I right nbout the bite of a rnttlcu..kc than there Is actual danger." said .i well known physician recently. "I ilo not menu to say that the bite of n nitid is not a very serious thing, I .; I do mean to say that this pnrtlci ! ir sort of snake Is really not so read., or apt to 'get In his bite' as some oth is. "In the first place, there Is the now generally credited fact that the rat tler Is the most honest of snakes, lie doesn't 'pick a fight.' He doesn't lay In wait for any one. He won t run nway, of course, for ho Is a plucky rep tile, but be will curl up and give you n fair warning fiom those rattles of his before he attempts to strike. I re member once In the west finding n rat tler Jut nhead of my horse's fore feet. I had no weapon of any sort, so 1 rode on, passing within a few Inches of the reptile. The snake was curled and ready for my horse In case the an imal side stepped, but as we did noth ing of that sort we were allowed to pass in peace. 'Again, the truth Is that the poison of the rattr does not get Into the wound Inflicted by the fangs In the average human being. For the nvcr age human helm: nowadays Is clothed, and the holes In the fangs through which the poison comes are rather far up toward the roof of the mouth. Con sequently very often the point of the fangs may enter the skin, while the poKon dribbles out harmlessly enough upon the trouers or the boot. It Is then that the 'victim' gets scared, fills up on whisky n bad thing in bona fide cases of rattlesnake bite and be lieves himself inarvelously cured when he wakes up next day."

Ills beautiful old place, Clandon, suddenly became possessed of a "ghost." and the servants of the place were almost terrlllcd out of their wits by the noises they heard and the sights they saw or Imagined. The reputation of the mansion became nois ed abroad, and at last Lord Onslow took a short cut to end the mystery. lie assembled his servants and gave It out to them that he was determined to have no more of this sort of tiling. I'or the future nil members of bis fam lly would sleep v ith loaded revolvers by their side, and at the llrst sugges tion of a noise they would send n bul let in Its direction to investigate tin cause.

What promises to be the largest advance sule of seats for a distinct ly dramatic performance that has been known In this city for some time Is that which begins today for the presentation of "David Harum" at the Hoblson Opera House Thurs day, January 21. There Is no ques tioning the fact that extraordinary Interest centers In the production of this ploy. As n story of life in cen tral New York the hook has had a tremendnoiis vogue and the play adapted from It will In all likelihood find favor for many years. Thus far the play has won much success nnd contains n good many tilings that appeal to the averngo theater-goer. The story Is pretty and simply told, and Its humor Is fresh and quaint. Its characters are deftly drawn and to leaders of the book It will seem thnt they have Just stepped out from the printed pages of the hook onto the stage. The presentation or tno play Is being awaited with much In terest. Everyone Is anxious to get a look at David Harum and Aunt Pol ly, Dick Harrabee. John lxuiox, and the other character-; to see David sell Deacon Perkins the bay horse and to hear bis story of his visit to the circus a told by htm to the Wid ow Culloin, and the piom.Me Is made that thu production will be found to be a very complete and elaborate one.
