East Indian Archipelago. RlIdnanh
Weber, Of this museum, while travel

miles of the coast large numbers of
sea snakes. He says that as far a. the

the waves.
During the great eruption Of Krako-
toa the %inhabitant of the eastern end
OF Sumatra found it necessary to leave
that point of the island on account of
the showers of hot ashes rained upon
them by the great volcano 80 miles
away. Taking to the water in boats
or all descriptions, with the intention
OF making their way along the coast,
the terror-stricken people found that
escaping from the shore was not much

Mention of a few of the most com
mon species may be of interest to give
a general idea Of the characteristics
OF the family. The genus Hydrophis
contains some Of the largest species,
and many of them are brightly
colored. The chithel, Hydrophis
sublavls, a large and beautiful
reptile of a sulphur yellow with
broad black rings is seen summing
Its gaily colored body on the surface
OF the sea during calm weather. A
fowl bitten by one of this species died
IN a little over five minutes after re-
celvlng the wound. The most peculiar
OF all the family is the Espeton, a spe-
cles resembling in habits the preced-
ing 1T possesses on the forward part
or the head two large horns covered
with scales. Their use is not known.

limit being the tropic of Cancer and
the southern the tropic of Capricorn.
One species is found in the gulf of
Mexico and adjacent waters. This is
the blacked-back Pelamis peticolor,
which is of rather small dimensions,
seldom exceeding a yard in length.
This family contain eight genera, COM
prising thirty-four species, some reach
ing a length of twelve feet. The av-
erage length, however, is about five
feet. Little is known about the habits
of this family owing to the extreme
shyness of it's members. A few facts
have been observed. During calm
weather they are often seen sleeping
on the surface Of the sea. When dis
turbed they Immediately dive, leaving
a long train of bubbles behind them.
Being air breathers they can remain
under the surface for any length of
time, but swim along under the water
and reappear a long distance from the
former spot. Specimens of varying
sizes are often hauled up in the fisher
mems net, and cause great fear, as
they snap and bite in all direc-
tons. Specimens captured in this
manner have been sent to large zoolog-
ical gardens, but they often die en-
route or shortly after being placed in
captivity.
Sea snakes are oviparous. The eggs
generally number about Is to Is and
hatch in about three weeks time. The
young snakes seek shallow water in
the vicinity of coral grounds, and are
frequently seen with the prehensile
tail wrapped around g projecting
branch of coral and the tip of the
snout elevated above the surface for
breathing. In this position they re-

main for hours, enjoying the warm
rays of the sun.
The enom Of the sea snakes sur
passes in virulence that of most land
serpents. 1t is composed of much the
same ingredients as that Of the cobra.
A large percentage is made up of an
irritant, which, when injected, imme-
diately acts on the nerves, attacking
the vasomotor system, causing inabili-
ty to breathe. Death is caused by
asphyxiation. This kind of venom acts
very quickly or cold blooded animals
and is very effective in killing the fish
which constitute their food.

have weight both in America and Eu-
rope. After adverting at length upon
the innocent facts that have given rise
to several of the most approved recent
sea serpent" yarns, the learned gen.
tleman concluded that the 'sea SER
pent," as commonly understood, is a
creature Of the imagination.
Turning, then, to the subject of true
sea snakes, as scientists know them,
Mr.. Ditmars stated some interesting
facts. True sea snakes exist. The
Hudrophidae is a family of serpents
that are truly maritime in existence.
They spend their lives in the sea or
large rivers, never leaving the water
excepting to lay their eggs, which are
deposited near high water line on
sandy beaches. These reptiles are
only found in the tropical seas. from

Two farmers from Platte county
Missouri, engaged in a duel to the death
with pocket-knives in a saloon. John
Hornbuckle was so badly slashed and
stabbed that he died within a few min

fully wounded. The men had been
friends and came to town together, but
became intoxicated and quarreled and
fought over a transaction a year ago.
when Steward was arrested for shoot
ing a man, and Hornbuckle went on
his bond, from which he subsequently
withdrew.

TERRIFIC BATTLE WITH A BULL

Arnold Herman Probably Fatally Gored
and Bruised.
On Thomas Floods farm, near South
Orange, N. j., a few days ago. Arnold
Herman, one of Floods employees, was
terribly injured in a struggle with a
pull. He was taken to Orange Mem
orla1 hospital in a serious condition.
Fairly in the morning one of the big
bulls in Floods barn broke the chain
with which he was fastened and
started to fight with the other animals
In the stables. In a few moments
others OF the animals had broken loose
and a fierce combat was going on.
Inc laborers on the farm heard the
noise made by the crushing Of timbers
IN the stable and the loud believing
or the bulls and rushed TO the scene.
herman, who was blowing in an adj
Joining field, ran to the assistance of
the other men, who were calling for
AID. Herman attempted to separate
the fghting animals by using long iron
rods, but finding that he was unable to

stalls and attempted to get hold of the
part of the chain which was still at
tached to the bulls head. The en-
ragged animal rushed upon Herman
with his head lowered, and, lifting him
on his horns, threw him high in the
air. Herman screamed with pain. and
as he fell to the floor the Iaborers who
were standing beyond the gate saw
that the bulls horns were covered with
blood. Herman no sooner fell to the
floor than the bull made another lunge
with his horns and plunged them deep
into his abdomen. The other laborers
yaulted over the gate, and by beating
the animals head with iron rods man
aged to drag Herman from the stable.
The poor fellow was unconscious and
blood was gushing from a score Of
wounds in his chest, face and abdo-
men, where the bulls horns had
pierced his body.
