In Guerrero the tarantula is some |
times found there as big as mans two
fists. Scorpions are of all sizes, but the
trlc which does the most harm by its
bite is smallish gray creature. The
iarger ones bite so hard that the blood
lows freely, and the infected poison
iiows off. There is a.little snake called
the corallilo, whichis particularly fond
of getting indoors and nesting in ones

lore they are put aon-in Guerrero. & If
j scorpion creeps on the face or hands,
the person s6visited should carefully
refrain from making any movement;
he should allow the horrible insect TO

disturbed, In all likelihood iewill'do no

SAILOR SHOT HIS CAPTAIN.
ALL FIYE OF THE BULLETS TOOK
 EFFECT IN TR E BODY.

Two Wounds Inflicted arc Serious but the
 Physician Who Examined the Injured
 Man Says They are Not Fatal-WOuld-be
 Murderer Under Arrest
 Quarantine, s. l., April 2.-Barlp J. H. Masters sailed from New York March 29, passing through Hell Gate and the sound on a voyage to Demarra and re- turned to port this afternoon by way of Sandy Hook in search of police assist ance and the services of a surgeon. On the night of March 20, about sixty-slx miles east of Montauk Point Captain McNell came on deck to take a look at the weather, which was somewhat hazy,
 The captain had hardly setted out side the companionway when Seaman w. Holzheur, who was at the wheel, drew revolver and fired five shots in rapid succession directly at the cap tain, every one of which took effect, One ball entered the captains face just below the right eye, the second one entered the neck, the third the thigh, the fourth the left shoulder and the fifth the arm. The captain fell on his face on the deck. The mate rushed to the rescue of the master and disarmed the assassin. Captain McNeil Is a large fleshy man, weighing about 250 pounds. His wounds bIed profusely before they could be bandaged by his wife, who was on board.
 Although the captain is very weak, none of the wounds are considered dan gerous. Three of the bullets are near the surface. The wound under the right eye is the most serious, but 1t is hoped the bullet can be extracted. Holzheur was immediately put in irons and confined in the lazeretto. He stat ed that he had no recollection whatever of shooting Captain McNeil and ap- peared to be dazed. He is mild, inof- fensive appearing man, and no one Is able to account for his action
 On March 30 the J. H. Masters was put on a course for Sandy Hook. On passing through the Narrows signals were displayed asking for assistance of the police boat. From Quarantine pr. Doty's clerk notified J. F. Whitney & Co.,, the agents. G. T. Hay of the firm, came down the bay with tug and met the vessel off stapleton. s. L. where the bark anchored. Captain McNeil was removed by the tug to St. Peters hospital, Brooklyn, for treatment. Dep uty Health Officer L'Hommedieu exam ined the captains wounds and pro- nounced them serious, but not fatal The Staten Island police force removed the prisoner from the bark in small boat to Stapleton.
