 statement il a New England paper

 As a matter 'cf fact, a lasso is abcHt foIty feet long seldom exc eding fifty feet-and out of that must be deducted the amount taken in making the moose and the part which is retained in the f1nd Thus it is seen that the aver age cast is about twenty-five feet or thirty feet, and the roper" who can throw anywhere near fifty feet with ac- curacy is a rarity. In California they sometimes use a rope as long as sixty five feet but there they seem t3' have ] habit of throwing an enormously large l0Op-much larger than is really nee essary. In actual work, however, it will be found that a mans hand is not large enough properly to hold much mi-re than forty feet If rops when cCiled ready to throw
 The lassO is a creation of . certain environment and need. Its place is on the broad prairies and grazing lands. and it's chist utility lies in the stock business. It is almost useless in a wooded country. by reason of the Cb- stIucticns afforded by branches and bushes. The finest lass-s are of raw hide. cut into thin strips. and braided six ply, into rope of from three eighths to one-half inch in diameter They are quite expensive, a gocd forty foot rope costing about $7. On this account, Of late years, hard twisted grass rope is used; but the rawhide rope is the best in wind. as it is heavier, and when filled with cil it is not affected by wet weather. A braid ed rope also has less tendency to kink than twisted rope.

A SUPPOSED CRIME.
Neither and Father Su5picioned of
 Infaaticide.

A tale of infanticide comes from northern Gila county. says the Globe Silver Belt, which loses il interest by reason @: being belated two months, and from the fact that it is largely . matter Of conjecture.
 In July last a family consisting Of husband. wife and bale, left Globe for the north, the man and woman on foot, pushing a carriage in which Tepcsed their offspring. They wanded their wsy wserily to Upper Salt liver and up through the Tclto country. and were last seen trundling the baby at Straw terry, the nCTthermost settlement Of Gila county
 After passing Fossil creek they were seen in the company Of two men, but the haby and carriage had disappeared. and as the carriage was subsequently found without it's occupant, suspicion was aroused, pointing to the dispcsi- ton Of the infant by foul means, prob ably drowning in the perturbad water of FjcesiI creek.
 The destination of the party was supposed to ba Jerome, and a request has been made of the peace officers there tU probe the matter. The man lad worked for the electric light com plny here. The more reasonable sup position is that the baby succumbed to the eXtr eme heat and hardships of the journey

A veracious resident of Germantown tells this snake story: Three or four years ago I spent my summer vacation on farm in Lancaster county. Behind Q hedge, near the wood pile, there lived a little snake, and, as I had heard that milk and music had a great attraction for snakes, 1 made up my mind to try this combination on this fellow. So one afternocn sat down i-n fagot of wood, with a tin plate of milk on the ground beside me, and began to play on a mouth organ. In a little while the snake stuck his hsad cut from the hedge, listened and then wriggled slowly and timidly toward me. Watch ing me out of the corner Of his eye, he came on until he reached the milk. He dTank it, curled up and listened to the music, and after I stopped playing he crawled back to his hole under the hedge again. Every clear afternoon that summer I entertained my little snake with milk and music, and he never once missed coming out to see me Indeed, some days when l was late I found him waiting for me, pa tiently d0zing on his back. with his tiny head pillcwed on the edge of the tin plate The next summer he was there; he remembered me, and was glad, heartily glad, to have me back again. But the third summer he was gone The tin plate, all rusted. lay where it had always lain, but the hole beneath the hedge was choked with weeds, and no little snake came out to drink my milk and listen gratefully to the music of my mouth organ. Doubt less he was dead d"-Philadelphia Rec ord

reason that a pumping plant has not
been installed is the lack of the due
appreciation as 10 the great need of
such an Improvement. Glendale is
awake this fall, however. Its people
are enthused by the progress other

The matter has rested during the
