Cool EyeSisht Of Indians.

Dr.. L. Webster Fox is of the opinion
that savage races possess the perception
of color to greater degree than do
civilized races. In II lecture lately de-
livcrc.l before the Franklin Institute,
Philadelphia, he stated that he had just
concldcd an examination of $50 Indian
children, Of whom 100 were boys. Had
he selected 100 white boys from various
parts of the United States, he would have
found ut least five of them color blind :;
among the Indian boys he did not dis.
cover Il single case Of color blindness.
Some years ago lie examined $50 Indian
boys, and found two color blind, very
low percentage when com pared with the
whites. Among the Indian girls he did
not fad any. Considering that only two
females in every 1909 among whites are
color bind, hc doe, 70: think it surpris.
ing that he did not find any examples
among the indian girls. Scientific

A TRUE SNAKE STORY.
Col. Jones, of Milan, Tenn, Kills
a Snake Filled With Oil.


Col. J. B. Jones was fishing on the
banks of Reelfoot creek, Tenn, says a
correspondent to the ST. Louis Globe
Democrat, having left his boat to escape
the hot sun, and had hardly thrown his
line out into the blue water when he
saw dark object rapidly approaching
the surface. At first the genial colonel
thought it an alligator of unusual size,
but on closer observation discovered it
to be an enormous creeping serpent.
When this huge monster was within q
few yards of him Col. Jones gathered
some stones about the size OF goose eggs
and struck it seven times in succession,
and, strange to say, the blows did not
appear to worry his snakeship 10 any
great degree, as 1T never once left the
surface of the water, but continued un-
cOncernedly, at slow pace. UP stream.
Col. Jones immediately seized his rod
and line and scampered hastily IN his
boat. 1t was only question of few
minutes before he was in midwater and
in hot pursuit of the object, which was
soon Overtaken. When within close
proximity he noticed the huge reptile
seemed to be blind and apparently
harmless. Fearing ali attack, however.
Col. Jones seized his rife. and. taking
aim at his head, fired. The bullet lodged
in the collar-bone and broke its neck.
There was a slight movement of the
tail, little splashing of water and all
was over, the monster floating down
stream.
Curious to learn the species of this
peculiar reptile, Col. Jones made laSso
from a stout rope which he had in the
boat and threw it around its body, thus
St. Paul daily globe. [volume] (Saint Paul, Minn.) 1884-1896, 1891-02-23

enabling hun to tow it ashore. A eriti@
cal examination developed the fact that
he had captured a monster snake never
before seen in this part of the country.
1t had a head resembling a long, funnel
shared horn. the body being similar to
small kegs joined together. What made
matters more queer. each key seemed to
have bunghole or outlet some OF the
queer knots being on the sides and
SOME on the top Hauling the tail on
the bank. which was by no means an
easy task, he opened one of the knots
with jack-knfe and found it to be full
of clear, purified oil.
At this juncture Maj. Sam Hall, an
old sportsman, who has hunted all over
the world, came up and tranticalIy ges-
ticuiating he exclaimed, Good God,
Johni Your fortune is made" Fur
ther he said it was pOrpoise snake, and
rare specimen TO be found thus far
north. The oil in the kegs has since
been found to be pure unadulterated
pOrpoiSe oil. Twelve fOrty-gall0n bar
rels were filled. The oil has been
shipped TO PittSburg and will realize a
handsome fund for Col. Jones. !
BY way of explanation, it should be
said to the incrPduIous that this is spe-
cips of the snake family which obtains
oil by plunging its head into the side Of
a porpolse and drains every drop OF oil
from its body.
The snake was forty-three feet long,
and Col. Jones has the kegs and bungS
in his possession.
