THE cosRAis JEWEL
An Incident Which Led to an Explanation
of the Superstition.

An Incident Which Led to an Explanation
of the Superstition.
In India there is a common superstition
to the effect that the jeweled cobra, a most
poisonous reptile, can never be found
without its precious stone. The natives
assert that as soon as "a cobra loses its
stone or has it taken away it eventually
dies lingering death or commits suicide.
These snakes are rather rare; otherwise
this superstition would have ceased to ex-
list. However, an entomologist of an in
quiring turn of mind and y dabbler in cleo
tricity, recently returned from India, tells
the following incident, showing how elec-
tricity can even serve the double purpose
Of exploding mines and false theories:
1t appears that he was anxious to catch
a number of Indian frefiies, and as de-
coy he used half candle power incandes-
cent lamp, current being furnished by
small sulphate of mercury primary bat
terry. The battery and lamp he deposited
upon the ground in neighboring thicket
or jungle and awaited developments. 1t
should here be mentioned that only the
male fly is provided with the brilliant
light, while the female gives but a faint
glow and does not leave the ground.
The first night that the lamp remained
on the ground very few of the male flies
came near it. This he surmised to be due
to the fact of the light being SO intense.
So the next night he set the decoy again,
dimming the lamp. however, by covering
it with some tissue paper. lie laid this
down by tree, and net in hand awaited
the coming of the male flies.
They came, too, in short order, and in
quite a little while he had secured lot OF
specimens. Suddenly however, the air
was free from flies. They disappeared as
if by magic Just then the entomologist.
thinking that the cause of their sudden
departure must be due to something unu-
sual, looked down to see if the lamp was
still burning. 1t had gone out. STOPPING
down in the darkness, he placed his hand
where he thought the lamp ought to be,
and to his great horror he found that he
had touched the moist skin of a living
cobra. The reptile had swallowed the
lamp. thinking it to be cobra's jewel.
1t is almost needless to say that there
was mutual surprise, but it was COM
paratively easy to tell which was the more
frightened. The snake slurred off, and as
the battery was little too heavy for him
to drag along, the wires being strong, the
lamp was forcibly removed from his
mouth.
This incident led to an investigation,
and il was found that the cobra while
young makes search for phosphores-
cent pebble, composed probably OF barium
sulphide, which, upon being slightly heat
ed. produces light which resem bles that
emanating from the female freely. This
he laws upon the ground Immediately in
front OF his mouth, and as the winged in
sects approach they become an easy prey
to this most venomous reptile.-Electrical
