' We had each a cutlass with which to sever the entangling- vines In our' route, a long stick to use In dealing with rat j tlesnakes or bush masters, a wallet of provisions for the day and some stout bags to confine our expected captive In, butnone of extraordinary capacity, judging the siza of the re ported boa to be, as usual, exagger ated.. , Before we had proceeded far the sounds of gunshots ; la the distance attracted our attention. We soon came up with the shooters, and were delighted to find that. thay. were the very hunters who. had yesterday en countered the boa wt were In quest of. Over the forestclad hills for some two miles we- with difficulty made our way, continually alasbiag a road with our cutlasses, to where there was a deep ravlne.- It was among the rocki on the pre cipitous side" of thts 'ravine that they had seen the.bba on tbe"evenlng be fore.

Alternately he would dash madly at me and then gather himself anew for another spring. Slowly he was following me, while I retreated. At every attack his powerful taQ would swish through the loose gravel, sending tbe dry dust In yellowish clouds about, himself. Now that he was far enough away, I gave the word to Pedro to jump up and cut a good-sized pole in the thicket. With this we both managed to press down his neck, pinning him firmly to the ground, upon which he tried vainly to turn and bite the offending wood, and twisted himself around it tight up to our very hands. Quickly at my call the other hunters came to our assistance and while they held on, some to the pole and some to the snake, I caught him firmly, just as Pedro had done before, around the neck with both hands. Now that I had him by the head, Pedro by the tail and some others by the middle, wt soon got him loose from the. pole and in triumph bore him off home wards, through the fores U, for nose of the bags we had with us was any thing like large enough to stow him In, We stopped to rest in an open spot whsre there lay a remnant of a prostrate tree about twenty feet lonff and eighteen Inches in diame ter, with Its interior entirely hoi lowed out by the combined work of natural decay and wood-boring in sects.

In a sweep of hundreds of millions of miles, finally, became forked at the end hie the tail of a comet- Issuing out of one side of this great spiral sprang a nondescript mass, part of which swept backward parallel with the original spiral in such a way as to give to the whole object the appearance of eddying round tbe star.

Oae of tha latest discoveries of this klsd waa mada by Prof. Barnard at tie. lick observatory last autaxaa. Upon photograpbiag what ap pears to tha aakad- ey aa a aasy speck near tha wooderful red vari able star Ma In - the constellation Cepbaus, he obtained a picture showing a hugs nebula surrounding an irregular group of bright stars, and "distantly surrounded by vast multitudes of small stars." Tha nebula, according to tbe description of Its discoverer, "seems to mingle Indefinitely with masses of smaller stars and become part of them. Photographs hava also shown that the double star Lambda, la Orioa Is Involved la nebulous matter, and. that a nebula Is attached to the bril liant DeUlgeuxe, tha leader of the same cons tails tlon. These facta become very Interest ing when one consUers that ' the nebulas art probably composed of matter la aa unformed or anorgas Ued condition, and that tha sua, the Start aad the earth Itself were once in that state. When we sea a star, or a group of stars," closely associated with aba lous spirals aad stream art. It looks as though tha start were consuming, or feeding upon, tha nebula?, or, In other words, as If tha process of sua maktng were, la soch cases, not yst completed. Yet It Is possible that our own so lar orb. which, lor our torrposes at least, seems to be a completed sua, would, If photographed from a far point in space, appear as a nebulous star. From such a point of view. If they were visible at all, the Zodiacal light, the Gegtnschaln, and other glowing appearances that are ap parently connected with the aua, would perhaps be blended Into a great system of luminous rings of spirals as wooderful la form as those at tached to the Pleiades, though,4ar leaa Imposing in extent louth s Companion. after her she dida't seem much la- tore-, ted."
