FOOT BALL IN AUSTRALIA,
Women Jurfes on the Field Make
Hot for Umpire and Players

Women Juries ON the Field Make 1t
Hot for Umpire and Players.
From the Blsckbl Standard
A foot ball match between Collingwood
and North Melbourne was played at North
Melbourne last month, and the incidents
which occurred show that the lot Of foot
ball referee in Australia is no better than
that of his English confrere. The moment
the final bell rang there was rush of peo-
pie in the reserve to the pay gate. The mo-
ment the umpire stepped through the gate
scores of men rushed at him like wolves,
and scene of indescribable tumult fol-
lowed. Fists and sticks were going, and
one man in the thick of the crowd, with
some implement wrapped in paper was
making desperate efforts to fracture some
ones skull. In the first rush Roberts was
seized by the hair and dragged down, but
splendid help was given him just them no.
ably by Proudfoot, player Of Ceilings
wood who holding one arm over his head
to shield himself against a rain of blows
and with the other around the umpire.
literally carried him through the pack with
one of his foot ball rushes.
A lady" had the enviable honor Of start
ing this disturbance. AS the players were
coming in at half-time. she waited near the
gate and struck Roberts In the face. After
ward her shrill voice, as she leaned over
the fence, added high treble to the tor
rent of abuse rained on the unfortunate
umpire whenever he approached the pa
vilion, which. strangely enough, seemed to
be the mastering point of the roughs The
woman "barracker,'' indeed, has become
one Of the most Objectionable of foot ball
surroundings. On some grounds they actual
ly spit in the faces of players as they come
to the dressing rooms, or wreak their spite
much more maliciously with long hat pins.
In the height of this melee some of the
women screamed with fear, others screamed
kill him." One of these gentle maidens at
the close of the struggle remarked regret
fully that it was a pity they 'let orr the
umpire in the Geelong match, as they
should have killed him. Yet these women
consider themselves respectable, and thew
support foot ball, which is consequently
in a serious decline.

and Charley DeMutfi. two young men liv-
ing in the southwestern portion of Ottawa
county, and given to hunting and fishing
great deal, came upon the snake, evident
ly the same one, just as they were climbing
over a rail fence to enter a big thicket,
noted for its fox squirrels. 1t had just
caught a rabbit, and the cries of the ami
nal attracted their attention, but before
they could recover themselves, so fright
eEed were they at the enormous size of the
snake, 1t dropped its prey and glided into
the underbrush and was lost.
heard of the famous big Ottawa county
snake, and thought, as others have and
always will, that it was the same one that
escaped from the menagerie several years
ago. They resolved, If possible. to capture
or kill the creature. and for days there
after traversed the forests and swamps for
miles around, but met with no success I'M
til last Tuesday afternoon, when they were
about seven miles back Of Elliston. on a
fishing trip. While passing through lit
tie ravine on the Armstrong farm they
suddenly came upon the monster, lying in
a sunny spot, with portion of its length
drawn across a fallen and decayed tree.
Finally Was Killed.
They each drew for shot. as 1t had not
yet discovered them, and both took effect,
but failed to kill, and the serpent, with q
terrible Kissing and thrashing of the weeds
and grass managed, although badly Grip
pied, to escape to a dense section Of under
growth and uprooted old trees, where it
disappeared into an old stub, which was
reached by first crawling over a fallen
tree. Knowing they could not dislodge the
snake unless the stub was cut down, De-
Muth waited on guard while McGinnis
went to q nefghboring farm house and Sc
cured couple Of axes, returning as rap
idly as possible, as it was fast growing
dusk. The stub was cut. and as it fell in
its rotten condition big piece scaled out
OF the side, from which tumbled the rep
tile that had been hunted for years. 1t
was nearly dead from the shots it had re-
ceived, and it was with little difficulty fin
ished by a few strokes of the axes.
When measured by foot rule DeMuth
carried it was found to be twenty-one feet
and seven inches from tip to tip, and was
undoubtedly the snake that had disappeared
from the show years before. Its skin and
body were too badly hacked and chopped to
admit of mounting, and after the two
young boys who had followed McGinnls
back with the axes had taken long, lin
gering and awestruck view of the terrible
looking thing, it was cut in three or four
pieces and thrown into q gully in the open
near by, lot of dead brush piled on the
hideous heap, and a match did the rest.
The reputation Of the young men, corrob-
GRATED by the testimony of the boys who
saw the finale of the snake hunt was q
sufficient guarantee to any one in the
neighborhood that the deails of the story
given herewith are substantially correct,
of the famous 1"Ottawa county snake"
which has been the subject of many news
paper articles and much apprehension as
well. " II

" ASKING the Heart.

From Science.
A quite novel surgical operation has sue
cessfully been performed at Parma. Italy,
by Prof Camille Verdelli. in the presence
of all the physicians of the Parmese Hos
pital. and with very satisfactory results.
The new operation was the washing of the
heart. 1t was the first operation of the
kind ard Prof Verdelli employed the
washing apparatus recently invented by
Prof. Riva- After making an operative in
cision Prof. Verdelli first cleaned the peri
cardfum of the patient, twelve-year-old
boy, of the pus which had accumulated
thereon, and then proceeded to wash the
heart with q strong solution of soda bibo-
rate (borax). The operation was very sue
cessful. tnasmuch no further compiled
ton has arisen. The boy Is now doing very
well, and is on his way to complete recov-
cry. Prof Verdelli has received numerous
congratulations for his success with the
new operation from surgeons all over Eu-
