"A strange thing happened on

"A strange thing happened on a
ranch near Nogales last April. A
Mexican who was camping out had re-
moved his clothing for the night and
/ was lying upon his blanket nude,
when he felt something crawling UP
Mortified to find that ii was a centipede.
Reaching stealthily for his revolver,
which was near at head, he cooked it,
put the muzzle within three inches of
the insects head and pulled the trig
ger. The centipede of course was blown
to atoms, and the Mexican, although
his leg was badly powder burned. was
all right in a few days. The bullet.
however, after passing through the
centipede, broke the skin ON the leg of
mule that was tethered thirty yards
away. The mule was dead in the morn
ing and its leg was swollen to an
enormous size. This will give you an
idea of the virulence of centipedal
poison. l do not believe that there is
any antidote for it. The toxic virtues
of the centiDede, like many other
similar juices, is innocuous when taken
internally. The Digger Indians used
to tip their arrows with it. The sage
hens and rats they killed did not seem
to disagree with them.
Next month the rattleSnake goes
blind. This happens always in August
and lasts about three weeks. When
thus afflicted the snake is in state of
chronic irritation. The eyes are blood
red. and since it cannot search for food
it remains coiled and ready for spring
night and day. Owing to its fever the
venom is much more deadly than at
other times. In this condition, If small
stone is thrown TO strike the ground
near him, the RATHER will launch him
self in the direction whence the noise
comes, and he will keep this up until
utterly exhausted. There is no doubt
that at such times he is insane. If one
takes a long pole and stirs him UP for
a little while he will bury his fangs in
his own body and thus commit suicide.
Indeed, the rattlesnake seems to have
this instinct strongly developed, and
will sometimes kill himself when tired
of captiyity"

ARIZONA HORRORS.
Centipedes, Tarantulas and Other
Deadly Pests.

Centipedes, Tarantulas and Other
Deadly Pests.
H. S. Garfield in Chicago Times Her
aid: l met a man the other day who
lives in the sandy places of southern
Arizona. That is a country where they
are going 10 raise every ching in the
world as soon as they get irrigation.
Just now they raise considerably more
sheol than anything else. My Arizona
friend told me about the insects and
reptiles they have in that part OF the
world, and long before he had finished
| had made up my mind 10 stay away
from there. 1t is an interesting section
TO the student Of bugology, but a man
who can make a living in Chicago,
with an occasional sail on the lake and
a few fresh ones" brought by the
German waiter thrown in, might go
further and fare worse
He began his successful attempt to
induce me to see things by casually
mentioning the 'vinegaroOn," which
ascerrained to be a sort of cross be-
tween a centioede and a tarantula,
with the most vicious characteristics
of beth. Its bite was certain death.
he said, and the only reason than men
were able TO live in the country at all
was because OF its scarcity. 1t was
fatal TO cattle, many of which it de-
stroyed each year. The only remedy
for it was to steer clear of it. | was
told that the qualities of the ceie-
brated"Gila monster had been exag-
gerated. 1t seems to be only an al
legged lizard, with sharp teeth and an
uncertain temper. A bite from its
fangs is no more poisonous than any
other wound in an exceedingly hot eli
mate. The ella monster" said my
acquaintance, does not make a bad pet
If properly treated. 1t is, at any rate
as attractive as the little Florida
cbameieors our women used to wear
chained to them three or four years
ago.
Insects of the southwestern torrid
islands, said the Arizona man, vary
with the seasons. In the hottest and
dryest of summers, that are always
hot and dry, the poison seems to gain
an added strength and its possessors
an added ferocity. I live near Nogales.
and already since spring three Mexican
herders have been killed by tarantulas.
These hairy black spiders will some
times measure six inches across. They
live in holes burfowed six feet deep
in the sand If irritated they will at
tack an aggreSSor as big as a house.
They are remarkably active and l
nave known them TO jump as much as
four feet in straight line. They
breed rapidly and would overrun the
country but for a small red wasp that
is locally known as a 'tarantula killer
This insect pursues the tarantula with
relentless hatred. 1t stings the spider
in the back just below the head Joint
ure, and the affair is ended in a few
moments. If you ever see a tarantula
making frantic leaps across the hot
sand you viii find a killer lowering
Somewhere near. and the odds are ten
TO one that the hairy monster will
never reach his burrow.

GAMBLING IN THE WEST.
Former Recognized Calling Fallen
Wholly Into Disrepute.

Chicago Chronicle: In Montana they
have passed law forbidding gambling
and the newspapers of that state have
printed comments on that fact in vari-
Gus strains, some jubilant, some with
a more or less regretful tinge. Ii is no
light thing for state like Montana to
reach that stage where il feels that
what has been one of the chief indus
tries will have TO be condemned as
illegitimafe, and it is, therefore, With
strangely mixed feeling that the press
and the people approach the subject.
Il must have required no small courage
in the lawmakers to propose such a
drastic measure, and that it succeeded
in passing and becoming a law SHOWS
that there has been a decided change in
the feeling of the public upon the mat
ter of games of chance.
Gambling has been a recognized
calling in the west ever since the first
pioneers arrived. 1t was engaged in
mites. In many cases the gambling
house vas the first building to be
erected in the frontier towns 1t nearly
always was the most important SIruc-
ture in the town for many years. 1t
was the meeting place of nearly every
class of men, for it was often fire.
quenteG by men who did no gambling
themselves, but who went there to see
the play or TO meet Others who took
part in the gamesg Eastern towns, the
inhabitants of which consider that they
are run on the wide OPEN principle,
would be considered very puritalical
in Montana and the west. There things
are open in the true sense OF the word
The gambling houses there are on the
ground floor and the double doors are
closed only IN winter time. The play
is visible to any passerby and the click
of chips and the whirr of the roulette
wheel may be heard on each side of the
street The gambler was often in the
earlier days the chief man of the town,
and was thought none the less
of for his being one if he
were a square man. It was only the
skin gambler who was despised. The
gambler could be counted upon to aid
in public improvements. and his was
often the first name put down for a
liberal contribution for church. More
than that, he frequently attended di-
vine worship. Later on when the town
took on different airs he became the
banker or the railway promoter, and
in his new life suffered none from the
fact that he had once dealt faro.
But the settling up of the state with
a newer class OF people has brought
about a change. Gambling is no longer
looked upon with indifference or toll
erance. Perhaps. too, even the old-time
dealer reprobates the practice in
which he used to engage. 1t may be
that it is he who has brought about
this change in the legality of the game.
The press of the state is nearly una
nimous in approving the new law and
it may be taken in this case that the
sentiment of the community favors the
reprobating of games of chance

How Uncharltable-How Uninst.

Did you ever hear Of man trying
to lift an unfortunate woman when
she falls from the high pedestal Of
honor and virtue? We think not.
When once she falls from her high
and honorable position she lands into
q hell from which no human hand will
stoop to lift her out. But On the
other hand we have seen men fall as
low as it were possible for men to fall,
seen the wife pull her husband from
the gutter and press hip to her heart
as though he was god; seen the wife
follow the husband through life in one
constant whirl Of misery, and when by
the gates OF hell they separated. weep
because she can 60 no further. We
have seen the mother follow the son
and the sister the !rother through
paths man has never been known to
follow woman.
Who is to blame for tie downfall Of
woman2 Let the angels in heaven be
