handling Live" Wires.
be- Philadelnhia Press

From the Philadelphia Press.
The following advice from an ex-
perienced electrician with regard to
live wires is worth remembering:
Never touch an electric wire that
has fallen down across your way
while standing on the ground, as
your body will become conductor
for the electric fluid TO the earth, IN
less you have rubber boots upon your
feet. Linemen are sometimes
seen pulling these wires
about, but they have in
suIsting rubber boots upon their feet,
or gloves of like material upon their
hands, and some people, supposiDg
these coverings to be only used for
protection against the wet weather,
have foolishly grssped the wires and
received severe shocks in coDse-
queDce. Don't employ a car
penter or ordinary laborer nor
do you yourself attempt 10 fix any
electric apparatus OF any power about
your property, whether the
current is turned on or not. Electric
wires should be handled one at 3
time. Ifit Is necessary 10 take hold
of TWO wires.at the same time, don't
DO it. In handling or drawing any
wire lying over any of the ordinary
street wires, especially such as con
vey currents for electric lighting, use
dry hand line for the purpose or
grasp the wire with insulated pincers,
any ordinary wire clothesline
may b come the conductor OF
8 deadly current. In dyns-
mo room, touch not, taste not,
handle not The most inofiensiye
looking dish pan may strike you like
. mailed hand. Nothing Is safe TO
you here unless you know everything.
Let workingmen remember tnst
when 3 company has strung wires on
the erossbsrs OF poles so closel y To-
gether that . man csn not move easl-
~ between them, il il better for him
to come down and resign. What proht,
eth IL a man that he has situation II
bis wife be q widow? Never close
circuit without giving notice
to all concerned. A telegraph notice
received in the back OF the meek gen.
orally arrives too late 70 DO much
good. On no condition let two wires
touch your body st the same time
Don't think that any wire lie not dan
gerous. There lie . difference between

Small Farms,
/. Petaluma Imprint

From the Petaluma Imprint
Petaluma and the surrounding
country needs more small farms Of
from two to five and ten acres. A
small farm well cared for will sup
port 8 family and lay up something
for old age and to give the child
rem q start in life. 1t would not make
any family rich, but they might be
independent and live well. We know
one family in town consisting of a
man and his wife who have two acres
and keep about 400 hens. They take
good care of them and realize about
$500 q year from their little property.
They do not work hard and seem TO
enjoy life Sc much IS any couple we
know Of. There are others about this
city who make 8 good living on q
few acres, and if all the large tracts
were cut up into small farms it would
rapidly increase our population and
wealth. This is q good country for
almost sll kinds Of fruit, vegetables,
grain and other produce, and also
good for raising poultry and stock
and with industry = few acres can be
be made TO support q family hand
somely and lsy by little for the fu-
ture.

RATTLEsNAKEs IN FLORIDA.

Not Very Plentiful, Amy More Than
Other Poison Snakes.
A Correspondent in Forest and Stream.
don't think your correspondent
"Anti. Snake" need to he so much
afraid of rattlesnakes in Florida. 1
have done considerable camping,
tramplng and hunting in the twenty
winters have spent in Florida, but
/ have never lost . dog nor seen q live
rattlesnake in the woods or swamps
OF this State. / walk through the
swsmps, scrub palmetto or grass
without ever thinking of snakes; and
in the twenty years have only known
of two persons to have been bitten by
rattlers; one q Mr.. Bsbcock, at Pine
Island. Charlotte Harbor, and the
young Epglishman killed this winter
at Halifax River. He saw the snake
and struck at it with a stick, when 1t
struck back and hit MIN. 1t don't do
to play with them.
What is called the moccason snake
or cotton mouth here, is very abund-
ant in the water and swamps In the
southern part of the State, but not
much feared or considered very dan
gerOus ike the IattIeIs.
Iwss once shooting from boat in
South Florida, when the bushes
pulled out one Of our row-locks (quite

l proposed to our colored man, Bill,
that he take of his shoes and panta
looms and feel for 1t with his toes, in
the water about three feet deep. He
dropped out of the boat and stepped
upon big moccason snake. He gave
an awful yell and as he came out had
an enormous snake twined about his
legs, AS soon as he was out of the
water, it unwound and went away.
Bill was sure he was bitten, and /
thought he looked very pale for q
black man, but could find no bile or
damage. 1t was several days before
he got over the shock, and the row.
lock was never found The moccason
snake keeps in or near the water all
the time, and the fires that run all
over the country do not Kill them,
but the rsttlesDake keeps most a.
ways upon the dry land, and most of
them are burned up in the long grass
and scrub palmetto.
/ only know of three poisonous
snakes in Florida or the United States
the rsttlesnake, moccason and coral
snake. The last is small very
pretty snake, and not dangerous un-
less you handle it. The rsttlespake
of the Southern States is very large
and dangerous reptile, but, as have
said before, a very rare snake and
seldom seen.

a MISTAKE

A mistake is often made by persons in
need of medical treatment. in not placing
their case into the hands of a specialist,
as il stands to reason that doctor max
ing a speciality of a certain line OF diseases
Is more competent than the family phySi-
elan or general practitioner who tries TO
cover the whole field of Medicine and
Surgery. DR.. J. n. HATHAWAY. of
this city, is true specialist in his line.
A regular graduate from one of the best
colleges in America, as his diploma shows:
he also has hal large experience in lead
ing hospitals and at Hot Springs, Ark,
therefore. if you seek his advice you are
sure of getting the BEST.

with three shifts of men in twenty
four hours.
The last air-lock is now 1900 feet
from the heading, and new one will
be placed nearer to the work. This
lock will be longer, having length
sufficient to take in three loaded cars
instead of the two at present. Three
tracks have been substituted for two
to remove the core. Twin hydraulic
elevators have also been put up for
