SCIMITAR SNAKE OF. MAZDA
GASCAR.

There is a little reptile, native to
Madagascar, known as the scimitar
snake that is, the curling sword. Run
ming along the back from head to tail
is q blacBsh, horny substance, which
bends with the convolutions of the
snakes body as readily as would a
well-tempered steel spring, and
throughout it's entire length it bears
an edge as hard as flint and as sharp
as razor They are not poisonous,
but when one of them springs on a
man, as he likes very well to do, he
will soon have a leg off unless cracked
on the pate. Some snake specialists
claim that the presence of this reptile
on the island is the reason there are
no large quadrupeds to be found there
at present, the curling sword in back
ages having taken off legs faster than
they could be created.

The United States steamer Colum.
bine arrived In yesterday from Alaska
Captain Richardson was called upon
by an Astorian reporter shortly after
his return, and the following particu-
lars Of the trip were obtained: After
leaving this port on May 26th the Col
umbine reached Victoria on the follow
ing day at 1L3O, having called at De-
struction Island and Cape Flattery
light stations on the way and lay in
Neah Bay during the night The sta
tions named were inspected by Com
mander o. W. Farenholt, United States
Navy. Pilot Francis came on board on
June I'd, and the steamer left for De-
parture Bay on the following day,
where the coal bunkers were filed
Thence she proceeded to Wrangel
Narrows, where week was spent In
repairing all the beacons, spindles and
buoys. The work was completed the
day the steamer Queen passed through
on her first excursion trip for this sea-
son. On the day the Queen passed
through Wrangel Narrows, there were
four steamers at that point--the Co
lumbine, Queen, the United States coast
and geodetic survey steamer Hassler
and the British steamer Thistle. Be-
fore the work of repairs was completed
an accident occurred which fortunately
had no serious results. A huge "sink-
er" weighing 5000 pounds was being
lifted off the deck with the aid of a
derrick, when one of the guys
broke away, causing the derrick
to swing around and into collision with
the rigging, carrying it away and
breaking the derrick. The "sinker'
struck the side Of the ship near the
covering board, but without injuring 1t.
The "sinker" was lost, and a new one
had to be obtained at Sitka. A new
derrick was made at Juneau, and at
Saginaw and Lynn Canal channels all
the buoys were changed. Thence the
Columbine proceeded to Kilislnoo, took |
IN coal and changed several buoys and |
beacons. Peril straits and Sltka sound |
were next visited, and afterward Fort
and Lorng, where the salmon
season was just commencing. Fort
simpson, b, c., was called at, en-
quite to Departure Bay. On the latter
'un the Columbine had a lively race

lay last, and on Thursday the steamer
