An epidemic of acute catarrh of the stomach
and intestines, affecting fifty-six soldiers, has
been traced by Herr e. Pfuhl to new potatoes.
These potatoes, which were gathered in June,
contained about six times the normal proper
ton of solanine, and small spots on the surface
of the peeled tubers showed third more than
the rest. 1t was found that the men who ate
their entire portion had taken about five grains
OF solanine. sufficient to produce severe distur-
Dances.

SNAKE lMMuNES.

A gentleman from North Georgia.
whose statements cannot be doubted. told
story OF a family, at least father and
son, almost incredible They live near
the Dunham mines on the Sand noun
tain, and are named Wilson. says the
Philadelphia Inquirer. The remarkable
thing connected With them Is an entire
absence OF fear or snakes, even OF the
most venomous description. and their
immunity from any evil effects from the
bites OF the deadliest reptiles.
The father and son came TO the mines
not many days ago, according to the
statement OF this gentleman, the son with
a large copperhead. one OF the deadiest
OF Georgias many deadly snakes. coiled
I'm his cap on top OF his head. The father
had a large rattlesnake about Ave feet
long. In his bosom next to his skins They
seemed no more afraid of them than II
they were pet mice. and after putting
these strange pets upon the ground this
extraordinary pair, in order TO prove
their lack OF fear. provoked the snakes
until each was bitten IN the arms and
legs number OF times No I'll effects
whatever were manifested, and the man
told the narrator that no snake bite had
the slightest effect on him. He and his
SON can take up most deadly snakes. as

saying that he has been that way since
he can remember. Physicians try TO ex-
plain II by saying that they have be-
come proof ny continuous bites and inoc-
ulation. somewhat n the same way that
inoculation with smallpox virus or vacci-
nation protects against contracting
smallpox. But this can hardly be true. IL
the man Is to be believed. since he states
that he as enjoyed immunity since his
earliest childhood. and the son, a small
boy, is also immune and has been all his
life.
The case IS one which might be profita-
bly, investigated by physicians and scien-
tific men.A few such cases have been told
before, but vaguely and indefinitely - tst4+
this is vouched for by such undenlably
good and reliable authority that there
can be no possible doubt of its truth The
infornor is positive that the poison fangs
OF the snakes exhibited had not been ex-
tracted and he IL equally positive that
there Ia no deception pTactlced. After
submitting 90 the bites the man and the
boy both showed their hands and legs, and
the small punctures with the blood exud-
irg therofrom were seen by dozens OF
people. Whatever the power possessed by
this abnormal pair, there is no quest tion
as 90 the poisonous character OF tho
snakes, ror OF the fact that taey bite
their Keepers. and that the bites were
absolutely innocuous.
