BIRDS. INSECTS AND REPTILES.
Professor Schurr Lectures Before tho
Wilmington Commercial College.

Professor Schurr Lectures Before tho
Wilmington Commercial College.
Professor Theodore A. Schurr of Pitts
field, Mass, lectured before the students
Of the Wilmington Commercial College
and a number of invited guests yesterday
afternoon. His subject was, Birds, In.
sects ana Reptiles Professor Schurr Is
an enthusiastic entomologist, and his de-
lightful accent and amusing and inter
esting way of expressing himself, aside
from the valuable information which
his lecture conveyed, repaid his audience
In illustrating the lecture the profes
sor used 5000 specimens of birds, in
sects and reptiles. His talk on ants, their
habits and modes Of living, was very in
struetive and interesting. He exhibited q
case containing silk worms from the diff
ferent silk producing countries, and silk
in its different stages of formation.
That part of the lecture relating to
poisonous reptiles was especially inter
esting and in it he contradicted some
popular beliefs concerning the rattle
snake. He declared that in addition to
what is supposed to be the poison fang
there are more fangs, some of them in
visible to the naked eye, which could
still communicate the deadly poison. He
also stated that there was a belief among
some people that whiskey was a sover-
eign remedy for snake bites. He asserted
that this idea was fallacious. The only
way that whiskey could be used on snakes
with any advantage, he facetiously OBJ
served, was to use a bottle of it to pre-
serve them in after they were dead. This
it viii do very nicely.
Another popular belief the professor
contradicted concerning the rattlesnake,
was that the rattles each represented a
year, and that the snakes age could be
determined in that way. The fact is, said
the professor, that the age has nothing tC
do with the rattles In warm and dry
summer the snake will change it's skin
some times once a month and will Otter
form a rattle at the same time.
The professor closed his lecture by
advising his listeners to become familiar
with all the peculiar and what may seem
TO them repulsive and deadly creatures
and then they would know what t
avoid.
He related several amusing anecdotes
Of people who were disgusted at first OF
seeing a snake and afterwards on beeom-
ing familiar with it regarded it as {
great pet.
The professor will lecture at the High
School this afternoon.

Wilmington VIII Undoubtedly Have a
Good Club Next Season.
A despatch from Harrisburg, Pa, says
The Inter State League is the name
adopted to-day for the new association OF
base ball clubs lately included in the Mid
die States organization. The convention Of
delegates from various club organizations
was called to order at the Leland Hotel
Monday afternoon.
These tows will comprise the new cir
cult. with possibly the addition of Easton
and one other city: Scranton Wilkes.
barre, Lebanon, Harrisburg, Allentown,
Altoona and Wilmington, Del. It Is
probable the convention will continue
two or three days, and there will be i'm
portant matters to consider before the
final adjournment.
The question of salary limit will be
one Of them. 1t is believed the limit will
not exceed 800 month, and it may not
reach that figure, but Scranton and
Wilkesbarre are known to favor a limit
Of 1925, aud the management of the
new Harrisburg Club would be willing
to accept the limit. It is agreed that
the guarantee fund OF each club shall be
$500. Representatives of all the ball
manufacturers are here. W. h. Voltz
will be chosen President Of the new
League.
The Press to-day said that this city

graceful movements CT tho darcers
filled the audience win delight.
Half of the ladies' wore ecru skirts with
red aprons, black corsage and white
blouse The other half wore red skirts
and blue aprons. All wore white straw
hats, trimmed with flowers and each
carried staff twined with smilax Half
OF the gentlemen wore green knicker-
bockers and coats trimmed with white
and red sashes. Half wore garnet suits
trimmed with white with blue sashes.
Their hats were broad and large. Those
who took part in the dance were: Misses
Mabel Thatcher Edith Aydon. Mamie
Jack, Florence Parry, Lydia Pierce, Katie
Plummer, Elsie Moore, May Evans,
Dora Feeney, Reba Bradway, Misses
Montgomery, Smith, Palmer, Wier, Fee

Giles, John A. Walls, Messrs Thatcher,
Blithe, Kemp, Hayden. Shilling, Downey,
Cantwell, Dudley, Bailey, Smith and DR.,
Pierce.
1t would be impossible to say which
dance was the best danced. The capacity
of the stage was taxed in the march, and
the procession was crowded enough to
slightly mar its effecrs at two or three
points, The flower dance was the most
popular and by many considered the
best. II received more votes at the
kalender booth than any other
The German Harvest dance was con.
sidered the most active and quick and
was admired for those qualities IL
would not be fair TO say which Of the
dancers in the different dances. excelled
in grace. Every one had their opinion
and all found il hard TO discriminate.
The booths were well patronized last
evening and after the dances the stage
was crowded, There was dancing of an
impromptu character later In the evening.
The opening night was success from
every point Of view and the prospects are
that the Kirmess viii yield a large profit
for the furnishing Of the new Delaware
Hospital The kirmess inn was fairly
patronized and its choice menu enjoyed
by many.
