TROUBLE vERTHRouoHRATEs

In the Western Freight Association.
Chicago, Nov. Chairman AIidgeley,
of the Westesn freight association, has
issued a circular letter to members
recommending the withdrawal of exist
gulf lines. he says that during the last
two years repeated efforts have been
made to secure conference between a
duly appointed committee of the Western
roads and like representation of the
New Orleans Traffic association for the
purpose of canyassing rates which have
from time to time been issued from gulf
ports on import and domestic traffic
when destined to territory northerly or
westerly from st. Louis. These eff
forts have not been successful, and the
situation is steadily growing worse On
many articles the rates from New Or
leans to Sioux Falls, S. D., are scarcely
higher, and in few instances actually
less, than the tariff on the same articles
from Chicago to Sioux Falls. For ex-
ample. the rate on sugar is 80 cents from
New Orleans and p cents from Chicago;
On crockery and earthenWare, 80 cents
from New Orleans and 27 cents from
Chicago; on coffee, 35 cents from New
Orleans and 81 cents from Chicago; on
molasses, % cents from New Orleans and
~ cents from Chicago; on rice, 35 cents
from New Orleans and q cents from
Chicago; on salt, 20 cents from New Or
leans and Is cents from Chicago. For
years there has been exhibited de-
termination to make such rates from
New Orleans to Kansas City as the ini-
tlal thinks necessary to secure the bust
ness. At least one road carried the Kan
sas City rates to Omaha and Council
Bluffs; another extended them to Sioux
City and Sioux Falls, and so they spread
through Iowa and the adjacent territory.
The people of North Iowa are protesting
vigorously against the inequality. Chair
man Midgley thinks the roads in the
Western Freight association should en-
deavor to remedy the situation by with
drawing their prorating arrangements
with the Southern lines, and exacting
their full local rates on shipments from
the gulf ports destined to points in their
territory. He therefore formally notified
the members that all tariffs from the
gulf ports or foreign and domestic traf-
tic destined to the territory west and
northwest of St Louis, that have not
been duly approved pursuant to the rules
prescribed by the Western Freight asso-
citation, are declared Unauthorized, and
that all such tariffs should be withdrawn,
the cancellation to become effective Dec
10. Exception is made of rates On tin
plate, earthenware and salt to the Mis-
souri, river, since on those rates reduced
proportions have been authorized via the
North Atlantic seaports in competition
with the New Orleans routes In the
meantime Chairman NIidgley promises
to make another effort to arrange a con-
ference with the Southern lines.

QUEER IDEAS OF SNAKES

Superstltions Among Savage Tribes
Regarding These Reptiles.
The African cobra is regarded
somewhat reverently by the natives
of that country, who once year kill
a cobra de capeIlo and hang its skin
to the branch of a tree, tail down
ward. Then all the children born
during the last year are brought out
and made to touch the skin. This,
the parents think, puts them under
the serpent's protection, says st.
Nicholas
The Kafirs use the venom of this
snakes cousin, the puff adder, to pois-
on their arrows, and when they have
any small quantity left they swallow
it, having theory that it will pro-
tect them from the effects of future
bites.
The snake tribes of the Puniab say
that the bites OF snakes do not hurt
them, and If they find a dead serpent
they dress it in clothes and giveit q
superb funeral. Some one has dis
covered that the leaves of bitter
aromatic plant, aristolochia INDIGO, if
bruised into pulp, mixed with lit
tie water and swallowed will often
cure the bite of the Indian cobra.
1t has been known to cure even when
the victim showed no sign of life save
warmth Of the body, but the most
general remedy is the snakestone.
Professor Faradav has found this to
be made of charred bone. 1t is APP
piled to bite, and when it drops off
OF its own accord the patient is said to
be out OF danger.
These stones are used also in Mexi-
co. Our own North American In
dams will not kill snake in their
path. They hold it in reverence, and,
although they select great numbers Of
them to use in their snake dances,
they never kill them, but when the
ceremony is finished take them out on
the plains and release them.
Some Zuni Indians from New Next
CO, with whom became acquainted,
refused to repeat their folklore out Of
doors for fear the rattlesnakes would
hear.

KISSING MEN AND BABIES.
It's Done Differently. You Know
--How Women Should Kiss,

It's Done Differently. You Know
- --How Women Should Kiss.
There are only two things in the
world worth kissing-one is baby
and the other is the man who loves
you. A baby draws up it's rosebud
mouth, you lean over and put your
lips to it, pressing them slightly and
then you get the breath of all tbs flow
ers in that one kiss. Kissing man
is altogether different affair. In the
first place a little woman invariably
has the better of it, because nothing
delights the heart OF man SO much
as to stoop down and kiss woman.
He feels as the elephant does toward
the mosquito-he dosen't realize it's
power and he fully appreciates it's
smallness. If I had daughters I
should put weights on their heads to
keep them from growing tall, for then
their husbands would excuse them
when they committed any folly. No
body blamed Venus for what she did,
but if Juno had cut up capers it not
only would have been in bad taste,
but by Jupiter! there would have been
trouble. A student in art of kissing
informs me that woman should kiss
a man on the cheek, on the tip OF his
ear, on his forehead and on his throat,
and let him kiss her lips. 1t is
study Ireally haven't time to take
up, because so much practice is neces-
sary for one to become perfect in it.
But it is an art just the same.-Chi-
cago Times.
