A GREAT SNAKE COLONY.
An Australian Enthusiast Has 8 Fine Col
 lection Of venomous Reptiles.

An Australian Enthusiast Has Fine Col
 lection of Venomous Reptiles.
 Mir. J. McGarvie Smith, an eminent bacteriologist of Sydney, Australia, is the proprietor of probably the greatest collection of snakes in the world, says the New York World. He is in the business partly for scientific purposes and partly for business. He advertised some time ago for 500 venom ous reptiles, but one publisher refused to permit the advertisement until he had satisfied himself of the sanity of the scientist.
 The different species of venomous snakes in Australia, so far as known, number AZ, and MT. Smith has speci- mems of all of them. The poison ex- tracted from the reptiles is largely used in the Pasteur institute in Paris.
 MT. Smith is an enthusiast on the subject of snakes, and regards them as the most wonderful of living creatures. He has in his collection serpents that have gone nearly year without food eiio eli iO Soill 1dC' I1c lids lHjcCtcu SOiHt of their own poison into them without the slightest ill-effects to them. As a result of his investigations he has estab- ished the fact that a non-poisonous snake is not affected in any way by the poison of the venom ous species.
 Why" said Smith, "it does not kill one of it's own species while 1t is SC fatal to other creatures is one of the myste- ries of the Almighty which we cannot unravel"

Suez Canal Profits,

The Suez canal represents at present clear profit income of over g 1,6OO .OOO year, and this, too, means saving to the commerce between east and west of over e2,oo0,000 a year. Its political and military value is somewhat problemat- teal, since the sinking of single ship or dredger would render it impossible.

Nature Paints of Negroes.

7 A writer in Progress Artistique, in discussing the music of south Africa, says the races living there possess to an astonishing degree the faculty of assimilation and imitation. They re- produce with surprising fidelity the songs of birds, cries of animals and the various sounds of nature. Child-people, they receive in their otherwise obtuse brains impressions of freshness and vivid intensity. Their long solitary wandering upon hills and prairies, unit ed with fleeting association with for eigners, results in a species of melodic nature plaints, as one might imagine, a developed monkey music.

Few Children in France.

Of all the peoples of Europe the French have the fewest children an the Irish the most. The average French family numbers 303 persons and the average Irish family 5.2. In England the average is 4.S and in Germany it is Al. The Spanish and Russians closely approach the Irish in prolificness. Con- trasted with the French in Europe, the French in Canada are the most prolific race in Christendom.

Why Not submit Tariff Question?

Mckinley says that we can make a
tariff law and all other laws FOR our
own country without consulting any
other government, but on a coinage
law we must have an international
agreement" ..
In all of his speeches from in front Of
he is in favor of submitting the tariff
question to an international agreement,
but is in favor of submitting the finan-
cial affairs of this country. A manly
American would resent foreign inter
ference in any legislation intimately
affecting his country.

which we first applied wanted obliga-
tons payable in coin. We simply an
swered: Gentlemen, lawful money OF
the United States is good enough for
us. and ought to be for you. We will
give no gold coin obligations" Such
we have never asked, and never will.
ITO coin money and regulate it's
value" is the constitutional right of the
American people, by them vested in
congress, and should not be invaded by
private contracts or otherwise.
On questions of policy, or the best
possible relief from existing conditions,
we think and let think. We make no
partisan plea. Our plea is for charity,
thoroughness, honesty and courage.
| Neither partisan clamor, nor abusive
| epithet, nor self-assumed and self as
serted honesty, soundness, or anything
of the kind, should weigh feather
with intelligent and patriotic Ameri-
can citizens. The partisan slogan
"sonnd money" honest dollars" Is q
bald begging of the question and an
ofrense of millions of men as honest
as the sun ever shone on. The intensity
of factional and partisan spirit is truly
a revelation of the magnitude of the
issue and of the interests involved.
Honest money must mediate impair
TALLY between debtor and creditor.
The terms and history of the promise
to pay must have due recognition. If
the creditor. after the relation is estab-
iished, acquires control of gold bullion
he has no right to ask that coinage be
limited to gold. II the debtor ac-
quires control of silver he has no right
to demand freer coinage of silver than
existed when his debt was incurred.
The law of immutable righteousness,
therefore, requires that the govern
ment, under which the relation of debt
or and creditor exists. shall "coin
money and regulate its value
Money so coined and regulated, whether
gold or silver or both, is sound" and
"honest money" and neither dbbtor nor
creditor can justly complain of n law
which makes it a legal tender FOR debts.
So far as the administration of our
church extension work is concerned we
shall do our best, under the unavoid-
able difficulties, and will give those in
debted to our loan fund the best pos
sible opportunity to meet their obliga-
tions. We will most gladly receive in
full payment Of principal and interest
the so-called "53-cent dollars" or any
other lawful money of the United
States.

Labor Against tho Bourse.

Otto Arendt, the distinguished Ger

that the decentralization of silver
brought upon his own country, says in
recent communication to the New
York Journal
"If / were an American citizen I
would unhestatingly vote for the peo-
pies champion. A free coinage presi-
dent appears to me q lesser evil than
a stock exchange president. You are
fighting the battle of labor against the

CHANCE FOR SOME GOLDBUG,
Kansas Man Offers $3.50 In Gold for 1 900

YER man of Usage county, Kan. offers
