THE VENOM OF SNAKES.
Pigs The Only Warm Hooded Animals Not
Affected by tho Poison.

~ ~ISsy
Affected by b Poison.
From the time OF FOntana. the first
writer on the subject (l767). to the
present, "A multitude of theories have
been preached rs TO the composition
and nature Of snake pOisiOn. This be-
ing the age of microbes, ii was natural
that its lethal qualities should BIC us
cribed to the presence OF microscopic
Organisms-a theory. however, which
has been disprOved by actual expert
ment. The venom of the cobra di ca
pellO and the fer de lance, inclOsed in
a sterilized vessel and exposed for
three hours To a temperature of 125 de-
grees Centigrade. still retains its pc
culiar properties. 1t is effective even
when mixed with alcohol Or ammonia,
and resists the action OF the most pow
erful acids, such rs caustic potash and
nitrate of silver. Snake venom in its
natural state though somewhat like
ordinary saliva. is less fluid and
more gummy. its color varying
from amber To clear yellow. 1t
dries rapidly OF exposure to the
air. when. while retaining its natural
color. it becomes CLASSY and shining.
The latest authority on its chemical
composition is NJ. Armand Gautier.
After analysing many specimens he has
come to the conclusion that the active
principle of all snake n is animal
alkalOid analogous to that which is
found in "a purifying body; and how
deadly that is. many an unfortunate
surgeon. accidentally inOculated while
making an autopsy. has found to his
cost. The vcnom is neither a virus
nor a ferment. 1t is a septic principle
like strychnine and digitalis. and. like
strychnine and disitalis. it acts always
in the same way. other things being
equal. Hence assuming the correct
ness of NJ. Gautier's theory the venom
of the English viper and the cobra arc
practically identical. the bite of the
latter being more fatal simply be-
cause nature has provided him
with a greater abundance Of
septic matter. According to DR.. Weir
Mitchell and other authorities tho
glands Of the viper contain 10 cent?
grammes OF venom. those of tho rat
tlesnake from ~ to 81 centigrammes.
of the Indian maya 1.3O grammes. Tho
v~irulence OF the venom. or rather the
vigOr Of the serpent. Is. moreover.
modified by climate and temperature.
In the higher parts Of Martinique. for
instance. the poison from snakes is
much less dangerous and much less
frequent than in the valleys and
The greater freshness Of
air lowers the snake vitality,
and though his store Of venom may DO
the same he strikes his enemy or his
prey with diminished energy. Snakes
only enjoy the fullncss OF their powers
in low ATTITUDES. Cold stupefies them.
The European viper becomes torpid in
and mcnagerie snakes arc
reused with difficulty from their
habitua! languOr. On the other hand,
cold-blooded an;nals-mollusks. fishes.
turtles and snakes themselves
are impervious to the poison which tho
sccretc. The only warm
blOoded creatures proof against it arc
pigs. an immunity which they owe to
the thickness Of their sdipose tissue.

There died iu New Orleans last week
two csntenRrians, both the last OF their
race, and both with cventful histories.
Tbs 6rst was mulstto woman, Franchise
Cimileu, l03 years old, 40 well 81 could be
estimated. FRANCHISE was born In San
Domingo, from which country she was
kidnapped during the exciting times that
followed the insurrection Of the blscks,
and brought 70 Savannah. She came
TO New Orleans 10 1908. eighty
years ago, being then married and mother
ward sue was sold to Chevalier de Risgio,
the maternal great-grandfather Of General
g. T. BeaureRard of Confederate fame,
and kiusman of the Duke do RigRio. In
1918. when General Beauregard was born,
FRANCHISE became his wet nurse and re-
mained his nurse until he went away for
his education. The Beauregards freed
her, but she remained at the old home-
stead until her death from pneumonia last
week. She leaves Q large family OF grand
children, great-grandchildren and great.
grelt-grandchildre behind. Only one OF
her numerous ohsprings, q daughter over
80. survives her.
On Thursday, Lizzie Jacobs, 105 years
OF age, Rnd almost the last of the Cher
tards of Louisiana, died. That tribe, which
once possessed all the Southern por-
tion Of the state, drfted away when
the whites came IN, save two or
three families. which fingered around

part Of st. Tammauy Parish, near New
Orleans. Some thirty years ago II Catho-
