4 Good Deal About the Reptile Told by .

Man Who Knows.
That the rattlesnake jumps to strike Is
undeniable. But he must first be coiled,
and then he can simply straighten out to
his own length. When coiled, the heaG

BILE, even In the rattle, az II whirs out it's
terrible warning. l once heard u snake
that had coiled itself up at the barking of
the dogs sound so fearful rattle that IL
was audible at u distance of hundred
yarrs.
No one who has ever heard that ominous
raMling sound-which cannot be made To
issue from the rattles when once they are
detached--can ever aftcrward hear it
without IA certain nervous terror. i have
seen baby rottler, hardly larger than n
large sized angleworm, that yet could make
noise with Its small rattle and its tiny
head, and the ilatness and strength of its
jaws inspired me with something more
than respect.

off the body l have regarded the charge
as well expended. There is no better or
more efllcienc weapon than the gun, for
Its effect, though not instantaneous, IL as
merciful as possible. On one such occasion
! shot u big fellow in two, about three
inches from the tip of the nose, which, Of
course, left less than two inches of neck
connected with the head.
My brother, who WAS with me, came
across tho ravine to take a look at IL and
found the head "a foot or more from the
still writhing body, which was lying upon
u rock. Taking IA short stick he gave the
head sharp tap, and instantly the huge
jaws were stretched to a fearful width, the
great curved fangs were thrown to the
front and with u deadly clinch were buried
In the wood. Then they relaxed. The
eyes that had opened wildly slowly closed,
and death seemed to claim the severed head.
But when the stick came down again the
same awful instructive ferocity was again
displayed, and the greenish poison Oozcd
upon the wood and trickled thiokly down
upon the stone. -Four times that head,
shot torn from the body, sunk those bono
like weapons Of death into tho wood. An
awful sight that was, fearful and i'm.
pressive exhibition Of u snakes tenacity Of
life and of its invincible tendency to deal
fatal wound.

than 90 rattlcrs on the 90 acres. Not one
did they waste; not they. Instead of that,
they carefully removed the greasy skins,
chopped the long bodies UP and fried the

WORK OF SENATE.
Important Matters Nay Be Delayed by Failure
10 Effect Reorganization.

Washington, April Il. - The outlook
for the week In the senate il so much
befogged by the situation with reference
TO committee reorganization that it il
impossible to forecast the proceedings
with any degree of accuracy. There Is a
possibility that this question may con-
sumo great deal OF attention, and If ii
IL not satisfactorily disposed Of II may
be used to prevent effort to secure ac-
tion on important measures.
Aside from the matter of reorganiza-
ton there are four important questions
before the senate. These are the Morgan
Cuban resolution, the bankruptcy bill.
the Anglo-American arbitration treaty
and the appropriation bills.
Senator Davis, chairman of the com
mittee on foreign relations, says that ne
Is hopeful OF securing consideration for
the treaty some time during the week.
the only circumstance likely TO prevent
being the continued absence of senators.
Senator Davis refuses TO make any pre-
dctions as to the result of the final vote.
or when that vote will be reached.
Senator Allison said when he pre-
sented the report on the sundry civil ap-
preparation bill to the senate that he
Fettigrew, who will have charge of the
Indian bill. has also stated that he hopes
to take up that bill. If the Democrats do
not object on account of the incimpiste
condition OF the committees both bills
probably will be acted upon during the
week
Senator German is expected to make
a general attack upon the appropriations
during the pendancy of these measures
Both Senator'S Hoar and Nelson are
very anxious to press the bankruptcy
bill to vote. but IL will give way before
any OF the other measures mentioned
Washington, April 12-The house will
continue its program of S-day adjourn
ments this week. Jerry Simpson of Kan
sas will embarrass the majority as much
as possible. requiring a quorum to ap-
prove the journal. but will have little
aid from the Democrats IL the spirit
of the resolution adopted by the Dem
ocratic caucus Saturday prevails as the
policy Of the house leaders. At present.
however, this opportunity to harass the
Republicans will be slight 1t may be
that, owing to the urgency Of the case.
the leaders may deem IL advisable, when
the house meets on Wednesday, to take
up the armor plate question In some
form. In this event as much legisla-
tion as is deemed proper can be had
under a special order from the com
mittee on rules. but nothing has as yet
been decided.
