SERPENT UTILIZATION.
Black Snake to be Employed in Rid
 ding a Place of Mice.

Baltimore American. A few days ago passengers on a car ol the Middle River line were given re- markable exhibition of snake catching between Black and Middle Rivers. As inc car was speeding along the motornan saw large black snake crossing the rails. He stopped his car and pursued the snake with the switch stick In his hand He was about to kill if when a na ssenger jumped off the car and begged him not to kill the snake, as he wanted to take ii alive. The stranger quietly anproaohed the snake, grasped It tlrmlY just below the head. and held it up. It was nearly seven feet long. and 1t en- twined itself about its captor in man ner which fairly chilled the blood In the veins of the onlookers.
 The man then started to board the c2- with his prize, but this was too much for the other passengers. and with one ac- cord they blackballed the snake. They anpealed to the conductor to put the man and snake off the car, but the nerve of that official failed him as he appJ1ached the man holding the ugly reptile: com promise was finally agreed on by which the man and his pet were to be given full Dossession of the rear platform, ana the ear proceeded to its destination.
 When questioned as to what he Intended to do with the snake. the man stated that he was going to take 1t home and turn 1t loose for the purpose Of rldding the place of mice.

KILLED $50 CHINESE.
Count Won Waldersee Reports a
Bloody Engagement.

Count Won Waldersee Reports a
Bloody Engagement.
Berlin, March 12.-The war office has
received the following dispatch from
Count Won Waldersee:
Pekin. March lin the fight west of
Suing pass we had only one slightly
wounded. The Chinese left 80 dead on
the field Our cavalry, with four QUICK
firers. pursued the Chinese twenty miles
A battalion remains at Fenping and west
ward from the great wall in order to pre-
vent a return OF the Chinese troops.
Official circles in Berlin declare that 1t
is impossible TO judge here exactly what
leads TO the Chinese activity around the
great wall The Russian papers are
spreading reports that the movement
there is engineered by General Tung Fun
Wang and Prince -Iuan for the recon
quest of Manchuria. 1t is to the interest
of Russia TO circulate this view.
On tho other hand it is believed in Ber-
lin that the Chinese troops near the great
wall have but slight power OF resistance,
as the report of Colonel Ledebur's en-
gagement seems to Indicate 1t Is also
believed that these Chinese troops are in
ferior to those sent against the allies be-
fore the capture of Pekin-
The StatAment that Russia insists upon
China's signature 10 the Manchurian con-
vention rests upon Chinese authority,
but Germany has no reason TO suppress
such information, and the fact remains
that the agreement has not been signed
as yet.
Nothing is known here as to the pub
negotiating with high Chinese officials
for the erection of arsenals at Marking,
WOOchang and other points, but the
rumOr is not believed in Berlin.

SECURE MRS. MAVERICKS LIBERTY

club. He has had several conferences
with Mr.. Choate on the propriety of
presenting petitions to the crown. Mr..
Choate, while declining officially to take
part in such proceedings, has neverthe-
less assured the friends of Mrs. May
brick that he will do everything he can
in his private capacity to further their
object.
Another new departure in the latest
effort to secure the liberty of Mrs.
Maybrick is the discountenancing of
newspaper advocacy. Mr.. Levy said !:
while we recognize and are grateful
for the spirit actuating such support to
our appeal, we cannot help feeling that
its very earnestness may somehow tend
to defeat its own object.
Under the circumstances we have
deemed it best merely to plead the I'M
fortunate lady's case as one meriting
royal clemency, and on this ground to
petition the king to grant her par
don"
Mr.. Levy's appeal will probably be
handed to the home secretary, Mr..
Richie, this week.

New York, March ia dispatch to

other attempt is soon TO be made TO OBJ

The Baroness de RouQueS, Mrs. May
bricks mother, has been in London dur
inc the last week in consultation with
her legal advisers, for the purpose of
framing petition to the crown for her

It has been intimated that the pros
pect of bringing about such denone-

accession of his majesty, Edward VII,
but quite the contrary. However that
may be, that is to say, whatever views
his majesty may personally entertain
on the question of the guilt or pun
ishment of Mrs. Maybrick, il is not the
intention of her friends TO conduct the
latest campaign for her release on sim

LOOK FOR SURRENDER
OF GENERAL B0THA

London, March PA report is current
that the government Anticipates a speedy
announcement of the surrender of Cen
eraI Botha, the commander in chief of the
Beers.
Inquiries at the war office show the
officials there have no recent pews of the
surrender negotiations. They think the
armistfce expires March A. and are in
clined to believe General BOtha viii sur
render, but the officials are doubtful in
regard to the other BOer commanders in
the held.
Mr. Balfour, replying to a question in
the house of commons today, repeated his
statement that the government declined
al present to furnish any Information re-
garding the negotiations with General
BCtha.
dispatch from General Kitchener
dated Pretoria, March u, says General
Dswet is north of BrandfOrt, Orange
river colony. Continuous rains have IN
terefered with the movements of the
troops in Cape Colony. Two bands of
Beers are being hunted among the hills
by troops under GOrringe, DeLisle, Gren-
