has not seen them would be set down rs
absolutely impossible, as in fact they are
mpossible-except for Bertoldi. Her
petite form shows only the normal physi-

to be no considerable expenditure of

the round-faced. stout one with the con-

A SMUGGLING sLOOP WRECKED.

tha. Saturday night the five-ton sloop
Eola from Vancouver was wrecked off
Cape Flat,ery during a gale. The, boat
was smuggler and had a cargo of laccs
and silks and some opium. 1t is known
that there were three men aboard,
and it is thought there were five.
One of the men was picked up
the next morning by a fishing vessel
and brought TO Neah Bay, and AS he was
in an almost dying condition from expo

taken up the straits, but the informant OF
the reporter said he had since learned that
the man had died on the trip. Sunday
morning the shore near the cape was
strewn with wreckage from the vessel.

SNAKES THAT WERE SNAKES.

The SNAKE said a Westchester
county farmer who was adding a few
touches to bis stone fence, lis compare

'Up in the Northwest is where. you

and I tell you it was interesting.
wouldn't have missed the experience
for worlds. Up there you'd have to
stop the moving machines because they
would get ,clogged up with snakes,
four and five in q bunch. After you
once got a field cleared it wasn't so
bad, put wherever you found that
prairie grass would be the place to
look for menagerie."
TT must have been exciting to work
in such 4 field" said the New York
Sun reporter.
mo. 1t was just .pitiful. One min
ute you'd hear their rafting and the
next you'd see the snakes cut down.
I don't say that there wasn't any dam
ger.''
II should think they'd strike at you
very frequently"
''Oh, the danger didn't run that way.
We were pretty well protected, as far
as their biting us was concerned. We
always had a lot Of stovepipe on hand
| and every man would get his legs nice
ly logged out in sheet iron trousers
before he went to work. Sometimes
they would get after the men so live
~ that the noise of the teeth on the
sheet iron would sound like hail on a tin
roof. 1t would bother tenderfoot
considerably, but after man had been
there awhile he didn't mind it. 1t was
funny to watch snake gather HIM
self and glance off a piece of sheet
iron with the first toothache he proba-
bly, ever had. ..
But the real danger came in when
you went to fix the moving machine.
You see when the snakes would get
knOtted together around the knives
they would bite anything that was
handy. The consequence was that they

and when the knife went through their
bodies it would get all gummed up
with venom. Of course somebody
would have to clean it off, and he had
to be mighty careful not to scrape his
finger against the blade too hard, be-
cause if he took the skin off it meant
one of two things a funeral or a ter
rible waste Of whisky.
NO" the old man concluded almost
contemptuously; snakes up this way
are pretty good to make pets of, but
they don't really seem like snakes"
