Rats for Snakes.

Snakes have the sense of smell. 1t is
difficult to obtain food for rattlesnakes
and water vipers. The owner of a
small private collection has been trying
them on the house rats and mice he has
caught about the buildings. He would
leave these in the snake cages over
night and through the day.
They would run over the snakes with
impunity The snakes would pay no
attention to them, but when he hap
pened to secure some field mice and
put them in the cage the snakes ate
them at once. He then put In several
rats and mice of the ordinary house va
riety that he had caught out of doors.
and these were seized by the snakes
almost as readily as the wild species.
He then conceived the idea of making
an earth box to keep the rats In for a
while before feeding, and soon found
that If they were put In there for
twelve hours or so before they were
given to the snakes they would be eat
en-. The only apparent explanation is
that the smell of the earth is desirable
by the snakes, and that the smell which
the animals acquire about buildings Ia
objectionable.

Mrs. Lena Crawford, an insane pa
tient at Tiels private hospital, has just
had an operation performed by Drs.
McLees and Hoskins to remove a glass
ball from her head, says a Wichita
Kan, dispatch. The ball is small and
is supposed to have been inserted near
the brain for some remedial agent. 1t
was placed there 80 years ago. Soon
afterwards dull pains passed through
the woman's head, and six months later
she went insane. Ever since then she
has been maniac, and no one ever
remembered the glass ball having been
put there. She was brought here and
the hospital physicians made an ex.
animation, later removing the ball. 1t
was covered with thick coat of men,
brane. Just as soon as she recovered
from the operation she also recovered
her proper senses and now talks quite
freely of the incident 80 years ago,
She says the weight of the ball caused
her to lose her mind. Mrs. Crawford
is rs years old. The physicians say
that similar operation was never be-
fore performed.
