PARIS, January 20th-The reports of the
assassination of theyoung French explorer,
Camille Doules, in Sahara, are fully con-
tirmed and the particulars of the tragedy
have been received.
He had safely reached the oasis of Taut.
which is south Of Western Algeria, and
though the people there knew be was
Frenchman and a Christian, he had
friendly reception, thanks to his letters of
recommendation from eminent Mohamme-
dams in Algeria.
He then accomplished about one-third of
the distance to Timbuctoo his destination.
He was sent to Aulif, in the southwest
part of the great oasis, under the son of one
OF the chiefs.
Messengers were then sent forward to
Akeli to announce his coming, and he set
out for the south after choosing two Turga
guides, who were believed to be trustworthy.
1t was necessary for him to employ Turga
guides, as he wss about to enter a danger
GUS Turga country where quite number of
Europeans have been killed. As he didn't
arrive at Akebeli. some of the inhabitants
started north to find what had become of
him. They found bis body under tama-
rind tree at the wells of Harri. He had
been strangled 10 death with cord stripped
of his clothing and robbed Of all his pos
sessions.

w. b. lockwood, who resides west Of
Jefferson City, Mo-, tells good snake
story. Last Saturday workmen on Daniel
Wade's farm, on the river and eight miles
above town, were engaged in excavating
along the southern side of ledge of
rock for some purpose, and in their
operations uneaTthed a number of
snakes. The snakes were not very torpid,
and made things pretty lively for the men,
but they seized clubs and began war of
determination and soon laid out the last
one. Then they counted up and found
thirty-eight reptiles had been killed.
They were mostly black snakes, some of
them very large, measuring seven feet in
length and as thick through as a mans

HEAVY ARTILLERY.
One Hundred and Ten-Ton Guns for the
American Navy.


WASHINGTON, January 20th.-The officers
of the Ordnance Bureau are discussing the
problem whether big guns are failures.
This question has been raised by the an
nouncement that the 110 ton guns carried
by the British cruiser Benbow have been
proved worthless.
Chief Clerk Sailor of the Naval Bureau of
Ordnance says that the fact that the English
guns have failed will have no bearing upon
the guns which the United States propose
TO construct; that as q matter of fact, the
failure of English guns is not an uncom-
mon occurrence.
Il think the 110ton guns which the
United States intend to build will be sue
cessful," says he. IAN inspection of the
forges is now progressing at Bethlehem,
Pa. II will be but short time before the
forges are delivered. The guns are not due
until three years from now, and, of course,
everything is a conjecture, on paper, but
yet enough is known to warrant the state
ment that the United States will have 110-
ton guns which will be equal to any test." /"
