white. He was In an open glade, Gid
ing through the heritage, delaying a
little perhaps for an opportunity to get
at some birds that were chatter1ng and
hopping about on the branches of
thorny, yellow-blossomed acacia. The
sun was blazing down fercely on him,
as, with half-distended hood held close
to the ground he slowly passed through
the leaves and flowers. For few min
utes watched his movements through
my binocular glass, but, fearing he
might notice me and escape In some
hole, 1 picked up my six-foot hunting
stick and rushed toward him, intend
ing to press his head to the ground with
1t and then take him by the neck with
my hand.
she saw me coming and like a valiant
warrior that knew his power he faced
around and stood erect with expanded
hood and quivering tongue, ready to
receive me. His bright, black eyes
sparlxled with energetic defiance and
every fiber of his being was electrified
with excitement.
"While was yet ten feet away he
struck toward me with such force that
the impetus carried him fat to the
ground. In trying to get my stick across
his neck he lodged it, and it came instead
across the middle of his body. At this
moment he was between me and the
sun, with about five feet between his
face and mine. 1 looked into his eyes
and held him down firmly. His rage
seemed redoubled. He leaned back
ward to make more vigorous dash at
me, and as he struck forward the
mouth partially opened and two tiny
streams of venom shot from his fangs
as from syringe, one of them catching
me on the face just beneath the eye.
Had it gone little higher up should
have been blinded for months and per-
haps had my sight permanently in
jured.
'This unexpected attack made me
hasten the capture; so, getting his neck
pressed down to the ground with the
stick, soon had him grasped In my
hand lust behind the head In such a
way that he couldn't possibly turn to
bite me-which he made every effort
to do for some minutes afterward.
Taking him home with much satisfao-
ton, made him thereafter my fellow
lodger. While living in his cage | OBJ
served him many times squirt the
venom from his fangs against the glass
of it's front. Thenceforth my doubts
about splitting snakes were removed"
The cobra's poison fangs project be-
yond the lower lips when it strikes, so
that it can injure fatally without biting.

Removing in 1882 to what was then

to engage in journalism. 1t was about

He was twice elected mayor of

FACTS ABOUT THE SEA.

DR.. Young estimates the mean
depth of the Atlantic at about 5000
feet
The saline matter held in solution
in sea water comprises one thirtieth
of it's weight.
The water of the Mediterranean
contains a greater portion of salt than
that of the ocean.
The sea-cypress a kind of coral,
sometimes has 5000 to 10000 animals
on single branch.
Nearly three fourths of the world S
drainage, directly or indirectly, pours
into the Atlantic ocean.
VT is estimated that the water of
the whole ocean contains in solution
over 10000 600 tons of pure siler
1t is estimated that two years are
required for the gulf water to travel
from Florida to the coast OF Norway.
lie whole bottom of the ocean is
covered with a layer of calcareous
ooze, mingled with the skeletons and
other animal remains of its inhabl-
tants.
If it were not for the salts of the
ocean the whole sea would soon be-
come mass of corruption, owing to
the decay of the organic matter it
contains.

Money Value of Hands and Fingers.

An engineering journal has collected
some interesting statistics from the
tables of German miners insurance
company. If man loses both hands
he is registered as entailing 100 per
cent. loss. In other words, he has been
deprived of the ability to earn a liveli-
hood. The loss of the right hand de-
preciates the value of an individual as
a worker 70 to so per cent, while the
loss of the left hand leaves him with
only go to 10 per cent. of his original
earning capacity. The thumb is taken
as playing part equal to 90 to 80 per
cent as bread winner; the first fin
ger of the right hand is put at IA to 10
per cent, and of the left hand at from
s to 1876 per cent. and the middle finger
of either hand. is worth from 10 to
IS per cent. The value of the third
finger is put down as from to per
cent, while that of the little finger Is
estimated at Q to 10 per cent. These
values may appear arbitrary, but 1t Is
explained that the apparent inconsis-
tency in the rating is occasicned by the
difference in the trades followed by the
injured ones.

COBRA AND ITS VENOM.
Intere sting Observations on the
Deadliest of All Reptiles.
TS Thousand or More Persons Die An
nually In India from Its Attacks--It
Can Actually Kill With
out Biting.

Mr.. G. R. O'Reilly shows a remark
able familiarity with snakes. In
Popular Science Monthly he writes
about the cobra. Among the very in
teresting facts he tells about this, the
dsedliest of all snakes, is that it is able
tysquirt its venom from the ground to
the height of mans face.
Every year 10000 or more persons
lose their lives in India from the bite of
the cobra. This has happened from
time out of mind, and there is no i'm
mediate prospect Of stopping it.
There are several varieties of cobra,
including Naja tripudians of India,
Naja haja of north Africa, and Sepedon
hoemachates of South Africa. True
oobras do not exist In other countries
They vary in color from brown to
black, but are usually banded with
Light and dark rings. At full growth
they are usually four feet in length
and two inches In diameter, but they
sometimes reach length of six feet.
Venomous snakes are roughly divided
by Mr.. O'Reilly into two classes-viper-
idae and elapidae. The rattlesnake be-
longs to the former and the cobra to
the latter The head in the RATHER is
broad and fiat and the neck very thin.
In the cobra the head, neck and body
are of about the same thickness until
the tail Is reached.
The cobra is very timid. The least
motion alarms him. If you stand be-
fore cobra and move your right and
left hands up and down it will strike
repeatedly to the right and left, fol-
lowing your motions. This habit ac-
counts for the belief that the cobra
loves music and dances to it. 1t Is the
players motions which cause the snake
to dance. The cobra is very quick
sighted, but practically without hear
ing, as it's head is entirely covered by
the skin in the place where the ears
would be.
So nervous is the cobra that it will
strike at moving object before it has

North Dakota's Senior Senator Is a News

The senior senator from the state of
North Dakota, Hon. Henry G. Hans
brough, began his career as printer,
but soon passed into the profession of
journalism, from which he graduated
as statesman. He passed the days of
his boyhood in the little town of Prairie
du Rocher, which is situated In Ran
dolph county, III. 1t was here that he
was born on the SOth day of January,
184S, and where he received his COM
mon-school education. From this place
he removed, in 1867, with his parents
to California, in which latter state he
picked up the trade of a printer. Two
years later he began the publication of
daily paper at San Jose, and later
became connected with the San Fran
cisco Chronicle, with which he re-

come within its reach. 1t Is very waste
full OF its venom.
These are three of the peculiar char
aoteristics Of the cobra: ~ 1t rarely
opens it's mouth when striking, but ac-
tually gives deadly blow without
J biting, (2) 1t bites deliberately when
! in state OF apparent death from mus
cular contortion, and will then hang on
like bulldog, the venom flowing all
the time into the wound In which its.
fangs are buried, Until it drops at last
from sheer exhaustion, (s) It can squirt
the venom from its fangs into a per-.
sons eyes and thus blind him, for al
time at least.
Mr.. O'Reilly was first convinced Of
the venom-spitting habit OF the cobra
by this incident;

STAR OUTLAWS DEAD,
Bob Moore and George East Bite the
Dust in Oklahoma.
TRACED FROM PLACE TO PLACE,
They Are Finally Rounded Up in
a Desolate Valley in Washita
County By a Strong Detach-
ment Of Deputy Marshals-The
First Volley Brought Them
Down.

GUTHRIE, OKLA, January 1.-Two
star desperadoes, who have infested
Oklahoma Territory for long time,
have been run TO the ground and made
to bite the dust. Before they did, they
fought their would-0e captors a hard
battle. The outlaws are Bob Moore and
George East, both of whom are sus-
pected of having been i'm plicated in the
Canadian, Texas, express robbery and
the killing of Sheriff McGhee. News
OF the affair was received at United
States Marshal Nlx's office here to-
day. Deputy Marshal Bill Williams
and strong detachment OF deputies
had been chasing the outlaws for sew
eraI days. They had traced them from
place to place, but had not got within
lighting distance until yesterday.
Although the sides were unequal, half
OF dozen or more deputies to two out
laws, the latter were armed to the
teeth and their natural deSperateness,
strengthened by the box in which the
deputies had put them, made them no
easv mark. They were rounded up Ia a
desolate valley 10 the southwestern part
of Washita county, about noon, aud
when commanded 10 surrender, took q
stand and began using their Wlnches-
ters. Their aim was good, for in the
first golley one Of the posse fell. seri-
ously wounded by ball in the side.
His name IS not given. The next in
slant. however. both lay stretched on
the ground dead, with bullets from the
deputies guns in their hearts. Tne
outlaws were yeriteble walking arse
nal and had they not been killed would
doubtless have laid some OF the deputies
to rest. They are Doth old offenders
