SNAKES SWALLOW BIGEGGS
Assistant Curator WoodruH's Rep
tiles Perform a Wonderful Act
at the Academy of Sciences.

Chicago, Aug. 1.-Two of the small
leopard or fox snakes belonging to AS
sistant Curator F. NJ. Woodruff of the
Academy of Sciences did an egg-swal-
lowing act which astounded the owner
as well as Curator F. c. Baker, who
returned from a months trip in the
east just in time to see the wonderful
performance.
The TWO reptiles have heads a trif1e
less than half an inch in diameter,
from side to side. Two extra large
hens eggs, raw. and enclosed in the IN
broken shell, were placed in the cage.
Leopard snakes apparently like eggs
extremely well, and they at once at
tackled the dainties and swallowed them
whole, though their diameter was more
than three times that of the creatures
heads They drew them in and their
mouths stretched as if they were made
OF elastic. Then their threats SWelled
and the progress of the eggs to the
stomachs of the snakes looked exact
ly like the operation of forcing a large
ball into small rubber hose.
When the eggs reached the creatures
stonachs there were bullying protuber-
ances there which made them look as
if they had swallowed door-knobs.
Then all at once there was a simuItan-
eous contOrtion of the reptiles bodies
and the prOtuberances disappeared al
most instantly. The creatures had
smashed the shells TO bits and the con-
tents of the eggs becoming distributed
the SweIIingS subsidized.

BIG SALMON SEASON.
Fish Running Literally in Swarms in
the Fraser River

Seattle, Aug 5-Advices from the
Fraser and Columbia rivers. as well as
from Alaska, indicate that this will be
the biggest salmon year within a quar-
ter of a century.
The fish are running up stream liter
ally in Swarms; so close do they run,
in fact, that a canoe padded over the
surface becomes an instrument of
death, killing hundreds of salmon in its
passage. In the upper tributaries OF
the Fraser the crush is tremendous and
the certain result will be the practical
damming up of these narrow mountain
torrents with solid masses of dead fish.
But while the waste is expected to be
very large, the canning output will also
greatly exceed that of previous years.
DR.. TarletOn H. Bean, director of the
fame and wide experience as a member
of the United States fish commission, is
authority for the following statement:
1t may confidently be asserted that
British Columbia and Alaska will this
year, beat the record with their fish
output. The conditions for salmon
have rarely been so good, and reports
of a mammoth rush up stream come
pouring in from the northwest. 1t is
stated that so tremendous is the influx
of fish that hundreds are actually
forced out Of the water and into the
boats.
The salmon pack. or canning output
in 1S91-a good year-for the Fraser
river fisheries was 409. 464, valued at 81
So1Oo0 w TN THESE 1iS uE0S as d OASIS
it would hardly be an exaggeration to
say that these seine fisheries, with their
greatly increased facilities and larger
number OF hands ought in 1897 to turn
out canned fish TO the value of about
81. 600, 600 Statistics are less exactly
taken in our Alaskan fisheries, but they
also ought to show a marked increase.
In addition to all this, it must be re
nembered that the Indians do a very
great deal of privateer fishing. In fact
the aborigines largely subsist on dried
fish, the bucks netting them and the
SQuaws cleaning and drying"

THE CINDERELLA" FLOATS
A Move Toward Placing Four of
Them in the Floral Parade.

Mrs. z. B. Meredith is willing to IN
dertake arrangements TO have the chill
dren who took part in Cinderella"
ride in the floral parade on floats. The
parents of the children who were in the
opera are anxious to see their little
ones take part in the parade and ii is
safe TO say that they will do much to-
ward bringing the fea ture to a success
full culmina ion.
Their pretty costumes will look well
on the floats and one of the prettiest
features can thus be added at small
expense. It will make the parade all
the finer.
Mrs. Meredith said in regard to it:
MANY of the parents have asked me
to get up and manage the venture. but
really can't do that without some sort
of assurance that 1 can have hearty
support in it. I think all the children
could be put on four large floats and it
would be very pretty. The expense
need not be much. I think the parents
would agree TO raise the money and
make the arrangements if they were
sure of getting a good place in the pa
rade and if they were assured that
they would have the support of the
floral committee in the undertaking
1t is expected there will be a chill
dren's section Of the floral parade, the
same as last year, composed of pony
carts. The cinderella" floats would
be suitable to head the children's sec
ton and would be entirely appropriate
to that part of the procession.

Flowers at Florence, Nice and cities
on the Riviera in southern France
II was deemed impossible to have this
feature with any degree of satisfaction
on Carnival night, because there would
be so many people on foot in the streets
and the lighting might be insufficient to
make it effective.
But Mr.. Holidays plan might be
adopted with splendid success for the
afternoon of Floral day. After the
Floral parade is over, which will be
about 4 o'clock, let the procession
break up and the carriages drive up
and down Kansas avenue for two hours
while the ladies and gentlemen in them
throw real flowers and paper pellets
into each others carriages. These
paper pellets are manufactured ex-
pressly for this purpose and were used
in great quantities in the last Mime
apolis carnival They are of all colors.
The sight would be a gay one in the
extreme and would be a rapidly moving
picture of color that could scarcely be
equalled. II would be greatly enjoyed
by spectators in the windows and on
the sidewalks, and would be all the
prettier by being given in broad day
light.
Mr.. Holidays plan is too good to go
by the board. Let it be Incorporated
into Flower day. where ii would be a
fitting ending of the days festivities.

BANIsHED. TOA MONASTERY
ance for One Year for De-
flying Bishop Bonacum.

Auburn, Neb., Aug. 5.-The last chap
ter in the famous fight between Bishop
-BOnacum and twenty-five of his priests,
who rebeIIed at his alleged tyranny. was
closed today when Father Thomas Fftz-
gerald left here for Conception,
Mo- where he goes to execute the SEN
tence imposed upon him by Mgr. Mar
tineln for his share of the plots against
his superior. He must remain in Sc
clusion one year, but the extent of his
penance is not made public. At the
end of his imprisonment he is to have
a charge in Nebraska equally as good
as the one he has given up.
This is supposed to be the end of the
long drawn out fight. 1t has extended
over a period of three years, during
which time twenty-five priests were in
open rebellion against the bishop. Bon
acum communicated some of the
priests. and they responded by having
the bishop arrested for criminal libel
but he escaped on a technicality.

SOME GOOD WORDS.
From Hutchinson About the Topeka
Fall Festival

The Hutchinson Daily News says:
There will be a number of good things
go on in Kansas this year and one of
the best will be the Fall Festival at To-
peka- Our capital city has been often
condemned for its Lack of hospital ity,
and the criticism has been good for it
The fall festivities were a great
success last year and they will be this.
The people of Topeka evidently deter
mined to wipe out old scores and show
their visitors a good time. in which
they were eminently successful The
Topeka festivities are said by those
who attended to be better than the
Kansas City Priests of Pallas.''

fuls of brightly tinted paper at each
