Manitoba's snake Mountain.

st. Louis Republic.
There is horseshoe-shaped mountain
up in Manitoba which literally swarms
with snakes twice every year. In the
early fall these slippery customers
gather here from all directions. mostly
from the prairie country to the south.
In one side OF the mountain there is a
circular hole about fifteen feet deep,
and as smooth as If it had been
fashioned with well auger.
where tens of thousands of reptiles
gather to spend the cold winter months.
Persons who have tried to explore this
immense snake den during the summer.

ART OF INTERVIEWING.
How Leading Public Men Receive
the Reporter.

the Reporter.
NEW YORK. Feb. 17.-Interviewing
has become fine art. Some men in
will express their views frankly and
freely on any topic of general interest; i;
others will talk without saying anything
worth publishing, while others will not
talk at all. The task of a newspaper
writer who seeks their opinions to
transmit them to the public is therefore
peculiar and often difficult. He has an
excellent schooling in the study of the
various characteristics of human nat
ure. He needs confidence, determine
tion and nerve to succeed, and with
some men even these requisites fail.
There are a few congressman, prin-
cipally the new and younger ones, who,
if given an opportunity, will talk to an
interviewer indefinitely, aud they are
usually disappointed If all they say is
not taken down and published. But
garrullty is not. howHxer. common.
Among members of the upper branch
of congress who never refuse to
| express their opinion in an In
terview are Senators Pugh. of
lEAlabama: Call. of Florida; Stewart,
of Nevada: Cullom, Of Illinois; Sher-
man and Brice, of Ohio: Atlison, OF
blowa; White. of California;; Pettigrew.
hof South Dakota; Hansbrongh,o of North
Dakota; Ransom, of North Carolina;
|fWashburn, of Minnesota; Hawley. of
Connecticut, and Chandler, of New
| Hampshire.
| Senator Pugh. of Alabama. generally
Esays what he thinks, no matter who or
where his remarks strike. lie seems to
be man with honest convictions and
| not in the least afraid to express them.
| He is one of the easiest men in the sen.
late to interview, because it is not neces.
issary to corner him or 20 pump out an
lswers to all questions. He never gets
Eexcited while talking on subjects in
which he is interested. Next to
Pugh, Senator Stewart, of Nevada,
| is pliable man, for the in
| terviewer. He talks rapidly and
with show of enthusiasm, espe.
cially on the free coinage question. He
will talk as long as the interviewer
wants him TO.
Senator Chandler is deliberate in his
answers an0 is usually willing to ex-
press his views on any topic of national
! interest and is always courteous to

Convict Wilkin May Be Insane
Social News.
A GLOBE correspondent called at the
prison yesterday to ascertain if possible
the motive that inspired o. P Wilkin.
the convict. to make such desperate
break for liberty Friday evening, but
the prison officials are unable to give
any motive for his rash act. Warden
Wolfer, in speaking of the break, said
that in all his prison experience he had
only seen one other attempt that could
compare with this one. Wilkin is con-
fined in one of the crank cells pending
an examination of his mental condition,
and will not be punished for his deed
unless it is proven that his miad is
sound, and that he was responsible for
the deed. 1t develops that when he
walked out Of the gate he went over to
the guardhOuse on the opposite side of
F, , the street and tried to take Guard Halls
gun away from him, and that the only
way TO prevent him from doing so was
by knocking him down. Deputy War
den Lemon remarked yesterday that
Wilkin had always borne good prison
record, and that he had never before at
tempted an escape. His parole will
undoubtedly be reconsidered, and he
will have to serve his full term Of i'm
| priSonment.
