A BIG SNAKE STORY.
How tho Cribo OF st. Lucia Swallow,
Serpents Larger Than ItsclE

How tho Cribo of st. Lucia Swallows
Serpcnts Larger Than ITSELF
No part OF tho West Indies is SO rich in
snake stories as st. Lucia. Froudo tells
how this fer do lance hunts his human
prey by creeping along garden path un-
tilthe guilclcss tourist falls foul of him,
when IN tho flash OF the ego tho fierce
beast has stabbed him with fanps that
never do less than kill. Coleridge, q
nephew OF tho poet, who visited the
island In 1873, gives tho gentle reader n
shudder by saying that net even on horse
back Is tho inquiSitlve traveller safe fiom
savage monster known as tho wood
slave. whose bite is as deadly as that of
troudc's horror and whose instincts arc
no less desperate. Neither OF these
gentlemen had seen any snake in st.
Lucia; no more have /. But it will
never do to leave tho island without
something on this subject more author
itativo than the yarn Of an engineer
sergeant
therefore take pleasure in assuring
prospective travellers TO this place that
in 1914 st. Lucia was pronounced to be
infested by countless reptiles" and
this from the pen of ono who had re-
sided thirteen years in tho place, Mr..
Brcen. But his snake story differs ma
tcrially from those OF both Froudo and
Co!cridge in that he appears to know
neither fer do lance nor wood slave, but
tells OF 4 ubiquitous yellow serpent
whose bite, however, may be efTcctually
cured IL promptly attended to, and from
what l learned in CaStrics am disposcd
10 back tho statement OF tho thirteen
year rcsidentcr as against those Of the
two gentlemen first quoted, though the
ono be historian and tho other the son
OF n Bishop. This yellow serpent, how
over, has an enemy called tho cribo,
VINO Is both aggressive and powerful,
and attacks his Fellowship at sight and
without provocation. Mr.. Brccn saws
that tho yellow serpent in these com
bats usually comes of second best, and
that tho cribo Is SO clever that when he
Is through with tho fight he rolls about
on tho leaves OF plant called pied
poulc, which operation not only counter
acts any evil effects from tho others
bite, but acts as tonic for more fight of
the samo kind, so that ultimately the
cribo Is sure TO gain tho victory, which
no signalizcs by swallowing his victim
whole, commencing with tho head.
Sometimes tho cribo is called upon to
swallow an adversary longer and bigger
than himself, an operation that might
discourage ono less fruitful in resources.
Tho work Is accomplished in this wise:
Tho cribo swallows as much as tho cubic
contents rs his skin permits, whcrcupon
no goes to sleep until timo nerves him
Tor second effort lIo then sucks in
what is nccdful to keep himself dis
tended, and thcreupon once moro seeks
rest md slccp-rcpcating thcso opera
uons until tho apparcntly-impossiblc
task is mplishcd-namcly: swallow
ing moro than himsclf.-Lecds (Eng.)

The Doom ScalcrS.

An Oakland dispatch to the San
Francisco Post says:
Few, il any, of tho doom scalcrs
who fled from Oakland on account OF
the prophecy of Erickson, have re-
turned. 4 few OF them may slip
back quietly, but quito number OF
them have gone for good. One OF
Mrs. Woudworth's followers, who is
intimately acquainted with his disci-
PIES, says that not more than fifty
persons all told left Oakland, and of
these not more than twenty or thirty
had much faith in the prophecy,
but some wanted 10 be on the safe
side.
