There are no poisonous creatures
which it can be said are desirable, but
perhaps the most obnoxious OF all is the
writhing, hairy, myriad-legged cent?
pede. 1t is rare that any instances are
noted of its bite, and it is yet a matter
of some doubt whether it poisons by
means of it's feet or by it's mouth.
Mrs. G. F. Rutan, wife of one of the
superior court reporters, on Friday had
terrible experience with one of these
creatures. The Rutans live near Comp
ton on a pleasant ranch. Mrs. Rutan
had gathered some mushrooms and was
engaged in sorting them over, when she
picked one up on which che saw a huge
centipede. With a little scream she
threw the fungus and, as she thought,
the creature with it out of the door, and
resumed her work.
In few moments she was Mortified
to feel something on her arm and was
paralyzed with fear on looking to see
crawling down to her wrist, from which
she had rolled back her sleeve, the huge
centipede which che thought she had
thrown out of doors. 1t evidently had
been dislodged from the mushroom and
had fallen unnoticed on her person and
had thence crawled until it came within
her view as stated. 1t moved with
great rapidity and before she could save
herself it had reached her bare flesh
and then it stung her viciously. The
pain gave her action and she dashed the
horrible thing to the floor and killed it.
Medical aid was at once summoned,
and none too soon, for the venom COM
menced to make itself felt in few mo-
ments and the unfortunate lady was
thrown into convulsions. A ligatnre
was placed around her arm above the
wound, which in a measure prevented
the poison from being all absorbed, and
powerful remedies were applied. She
has since been very ill, however, and
only yesterday was pronounced out ol
danger.
A fact is stated about the matter
which lends color to the theory that the
centipede stings with each of its many
feet, for it is said that shortly aftel
Mrs. Rutan was stung an exact pictur,
Of the creature appeared on her arm "a

This being a bright scarlet in hue

ture of stings on the feet.

Special to the HERALD
SAN DIEGO, March 16.--A small audi
ence Witnessed the second game of the
Los Angeles-San Diego series today, and
saw the league team wipe up the locals
to the tune OF Is to 4. The San Diegos
tailed to score after the second inning.
Roach, Hassamer, Newman and Rogers
formed the batteries for the Angels.
Roach in the box was puzzler for the
amateurs, who found him hard to hit,
and the general opinion prevails that he
will prove very effective against the
California league teams. The features
of the game were the fine work of Hulen
at third and Newman's batting. Stat
ford arrived today, too late to play. The
Angels are rapidly getting into fine con.
dition, and will meet San Francisco,
ready for the fray, on Saturday week.

Glen Got Practice.

According to the San Diego Sun, R. j.
Glenalvin is just 500 out on the game
yesterday at San Diego. Here is what
the Sun says:
Manager Jost for the San Diego team
and Manager Glenalvin of the Los An
geles club met at the Horton house this
morning. Mr.. Jost had money in his
pocket, and as he came up to Glenalvin,
who was standing at the counter, he
said: "Well, am ready to put up the
stuff" "What stuff" asked the pro.
feesional. why, the stuff that says
we can make one run in the game tomor-
row." replied Joe, as he ratified the coin
in his left pants pocket. "Look here, -
put in Glenalvin in q SURPRISED sort OF
way, "are you people in earnest about
wanting to take up my proposition? l
made it in fun, but if you took it in
earnest the bet goes"
Jost pulled out his five gold pieces,
good the world over for 500 each, and,
laying them on the counter, remarked !:
'If you don't think we are in earnest,
cover this"
Glenalvin turned quickly, ran up the
steps, three at a jump, and in O few
minutes returned. ~ had to consult
my cashier (Mrs. Glenalvin, the boys
say), but here is your covering" and he
laid down paper money in an equal
amount to the pile of gold. Then an
agreement article was drawn up, which
read, in substance, that Mr.. Jost was to
play only San Diego county players, or
persons who had been in the county ten
days. If the San Diego club made one
run during nine innings the money was
theirs, but in case ten or more innings
are played to score a run, the bet must
be called off. The umpire must be
chosen by mutual consent, and all de.
cisions made by him must govern the
The 5000 were placed in the hands OF
w. E. Hadley, with the articles Of
agreement.
Glenalvin said: "I was joshing the
boys yesterday, but as. l am satisfied
they are gentlemen and will play ball in
an honorable way, l am glad to cover
their bet. I think we can win, but
mind you, one bad break might lose the
game for us. The fact of the matter is
we must play an errorless game. Well,
we came here for practice any way, and
guess it will be given US tomorrow"
