fieations, could secure Republican

is the very backbone Of the Republi-

There has just died at Mian Mir an old
Mussulman woman named Bhuorie, who.
says the Lahore paper, is credited with
having reached the advanced age of $50
years. She was brought from near Mont
gomery lately by road to the house of her
grandson at Mian Mir, and this person is
an old man of some eighty years. with
married grown-up children and grand
children.
Padang, says the Straits Times, can
boast something out of the way in the
shape of Mas woman, who, by .yo
husbands, has had no less than thirty-two
children, all girls. The number of hec
grandchildren is so great that she cannot
ell how many they muster. She is still
active, strong and in good health.

A Snake Steals a Boat

Captain A B. Couldwell had an inter-
esting and unusual experience for this
latitude with a snake at Wigton's Point
the other day. He was fishing in the
creek, and had occasion to go ashore, and,
after tying his small string of perch to
the stern of the boat, the Nellie c., he
pulled her upon the beach. Half an hour
later he returned, but Just in time to sec
his priced boat moving slowly toward the
center of the stream. Without second
thought he rushed into the water, through
the wild rice, and leaped into the boat.
The mystery which had shrouded the
affair was dissolved when he discovered
that monstrous snake had swallowed
one of the perch and had towed the boat
out. Couldwell got little excited. He
seized an unwieldy punt pole, and, with
well-directed aim, struck the snake
across the back, which had the effect of
breaking the stringer but cnraged the
snake. ut whlrled and started for the
occupants of the boat with an open
mouth, said Cauldwell, "that would take
in forty -fve-cent watermelon"
The other occupant of the boat, his
young daughter, became frightened, and
thought of all the wonderful pictures seen
in show bills where oxen are represented
as being devoured by these enormous rep
tiles. Couldwell took to the oars; this
gave the snake new courage, and he was
soon alongside and forced an anchorage
Couldwell's good nature vanished, and
with the strength of Hercules he struck
the snake upon the head, following up
this advantage with well-aimed blows
until he beheld his adversary slain before
him. 1t measured seven and half feet,
and was of swamp species; a dark,
narrow streak down the back from head
to tail, and yellow and red stripes around
the body. This species is seldom seen in
this climate. - Toledo (Ohio) Commercial

Gum in Felt Hats.

OF late some complaint has been heard
as to the wearing quality of these hats.
1t is stated that they are over stiffened
and over finished, and that the gum soon
appears upon the surface and the struc-
ture is easily broken. This is a fault
which in years past dogged the steps of
the American halter and wearied the
retailer. A hat when sold would seem
to be perfect, with no trace of gum ON the
surface. In few days it would be
brought back looking as if a glue pot had
been upset upon the brim. Sometimes
even the crown would be disfgured. 1t
was difficult to convince some customers
that the retailer was not aware before
hand that such condition would en-
sue.
The reasons why the gum showed
itself first upon the brim was that the
brim was more heavily stiffened thar the
crown and was handled more in use. The
discovery and the application of the wire
edge for brims enabled hatters to dispense
with much of the stiffening, and crowns
as well as brims were gummed lighter,
and thus the whole hat became flexible.
Freedom from the gum nuisance and
ease of adjustment to the head were botE
secured by this improvement,-Aen's out
Titter.
