stiil In a DANGEROUS Condition

Attention was called last week in the
columns of the REPUBLICAN to the
very dangerous condition of MARYLAND
avenue, where it is being graded. near
w. Y. Warmers morocco factory. and
to the fact that no light or danger sig
nails were displayed AT night, as reouir-
ed by law. Nothing, however, seems to
have been done, and no precautions
taken to prevent another accident, and
on Sunday evening as T. D. Brown. of
the Domestic Sewing Machine Comma
n.y., was driving along at this point
with carriage containing his wife and
five small children, some of whom were
asleep, the vehicle was upset and badly
broken, but fortunately none of the oc-
cupants were seriously injured.
although they were all thrown to the
ground. 1t is understood that Mr.
Brown intends to enter suit against the
city for damages, and the taxpayers
will, in all probability, have to paw for
the negligence of the city's officers in
not seeing that the law was enforced
by having danger signals displayed,

When Mr.. George Rice took possession
of his properly at Highland Park, he
found some aboriginal Inhabitants on the
land In the shape 0g four or five sleek
gopher snakes. These harmless reptiles
are generally killed on sight by careless
people who have a natural horror of
snakes of all kinds, but fruit growers who
have been In the country for any length
of time learned to appreciate their ser5 l.
ces, and encourage their presence in the
orchards. AS Mr.. Rice's journal has in
time past contained several able articl es
on the Value of the Gopher snake on
the Farm" he felt in duty bound to re-
cognize the rights of the hereditary ten-
ants of Highland Park and they remained
In peaceful possession of all their privi-
leges.
But as time went on he became a kttle
doubtful CT their reputed fondness for
gopher flesh, and began to cast an evil
eye upon the flock as they lay quietly
sleeping in the sun near Pasadena avenue.
His doubts were based upon the fact that
If they swallowed the destructive rodents,
as is commonly the case, their bodies
would showa lump of some kind,as snakes
do not mas ticate their food, but take it
straight without ary preparation. But
berances of any kind about them, and
their diet might have been nothing strong
er than grasshoppers and lizards. A test
was decided upon which should settle the
question, and at the same time the fate of
the aborigines. A gopher trap was set 10
one of the holes, and soon a young and
fat rodent captured by the leg, which the
boys speedily took to one of the snakes.
Snakey took in the situation at once, ana
grssped the struggling victim In its coils
Firmer and tlrmer he tightened his grip,
till the poor gopher was swelled to the
size and shape of Duarte orange, when
his snakeship bent his head, and with his
delicate fangs made slight incision
through the hide of his prisoner. lie then
placed his mouth to the aperture and
sucked the contents out of the body draw
ing out everything neatly and cleanly The
skin was then ;h'own to one side, and the
snake, satisfied with his meal, lazily coil
ed himself up and tell into doze.
The gopher snakes OF Highland Park
will remain unmolested, and long may
they live to bring confusion upon the arch
enemies of the farmers and fruit growers.

The Philadelphia Times of Monday
says:
Qnthe 9th of October, 1927, shocks
|ntsA,Arthanske were felt at Philadel.
|phia, New, York and Boston, witch set
the clocks 10 running down and shook
china from the shelves. In some places
doors were bust open and people could
hardly keep their feet. The shock,
which occurred about twelve minutes
before eleven in the morning and while
the sky was serene, lasted about two
minutes. Its course seemed to be from
the Delaware river, in the southwest, to
the Kennebec, in the northeast, a dis
tance of about seven hundred milee.
On the 18t.i of November of the same
year severe earthquake shock was felt
from Chesapeak Bay along the coast to
Halifax, about eight hundred miles, and
in the interior it seems to have extend.
ed from northwest to southeast more
than thousand miles, though no seri-
GUS damage was recorded in this city.
1t was most ipjuriously felt in the New
England States. On the 7th of Decem-
Der, 1877, "a smart shock was felt during
the night at Philadelphia and at Cones.
toga, New Castle and other points
within short radius.
When John Penn first arrived in
Philadelphia, on Sunday, a violent
earthquake was felt as he stepped ashore
at High street wharf. 1t raised some
superstition and was long remembered
with feelings akin to awe. When he
went home q dreadful thunderstorm
arose and his return as Proprietor was
signalized by ii fierce hurricane.
March %, 1853, April 20, 1872, Novem-
Der 20, 1888, and the following day,
Decent Der i, are also memorable as dates
on which the city's foundations were
disturbed. January 8, 1917, the river
was much agitated by an earthquake
shock to the southwark and during the
disturbance vessels we're tossed about
and the water rose one foot.

The National Era (of Washington)
had large circulation and high liter
ary standing, but DR. Bailey (its edi-
tori was troa bled about the difficulty or
impossibility Of procuring anti-savery
tales. Mrs. Southworth was writing
serials for 1t, and he had hoped that
she, Southern woman with Northern
principles, could weave into her story
pictures of slavery that would call
damaging attention 10 it, but in this
she failed. Anti-slavery tales were
what the good Doctor wanted. Temper
ance had it's stery-writer in Arthur. II
only abolition had a good writer of fic.
ton, one who would interest and edu-
cate the young. He knew of but one
pen able to write what he wanted, and,

Mrs. Slowed had not heard;of her, and he
explained TO me that she wRs daughter
of Lyman Bescher. was surprised and
exclaimed:
/" A daughter OF Lyman Beeecher
write abolition stories! Saul among the
prophets!"
l reminded the Doctor that Presi-
dent Beecher and Professor Stowe had
broken up the Theological department of
Lane Seminary by suppress;ng the anti
slav' ry agitation raised by Theodore
Weld, a kentucky student, and threw
their Influence against disturbing
The Congregational churches with Il new
fanaticism: that Edward Beecher in
vented the "orGanic sin" devil, behind
which churches and individuals took
refuge when called upon to" come up
to the help of the Lord against the
mighty" But Doctor Bailey said that
he knew them personally, and that, de-
spite their public record, they were at
beart anti-slaverv and that prudence
alone dictated their course. Mrs. Stowe
was graphic story teller, had been in
Kentucky, taken in the situation and
could describe the peculiar situation as
no one else could. If no could only en-
list her, the whole family would most
likely enlist in the abolition ranks, but
the bounty money, alas! where could
he raise it
Where there is will there Is q way,
and it was but few months after that
conversation when DR. Bailey forward
