TO GUARD THE CZAR.
Precautions Taken by French Police
to Protect Russia's Ruler.

Precautions Taken by French Police
to Protect Russia's Ruler.
Paris Correspondence London Chronicle. Aug. 27.
Every possible precaution will be taken
by the two great sections Of the French
police to protect the car during his visit
to France. According to list in the hands
of M. Puibaraud there are about 200 an
archists In France who might as isolated
Companions or hired assassins try to
initiate the murderers whose names are
now notorious. Some Of these will be
placed under lock and key. Every move
ment Of the others will be closely watched.
The train journey from Dunkirk to Com
piegne will be by night, and by special re-
quest the speed will not be excessive. it
Will be remembered that when Nicholas Ill
travelled in 1896 from Versailles TO Chalons
the imperial saloon carriages We're shunted
for several hours. Although it is affirmed
that the French police will have the sole
responsibility of the emperor's safety l am
Informed that the group Of resident Rus
Sian agents will be reinforced. Seeing that
the perpetrators of an outrage are not
likely to be French this course Is advisable.
The above list does not include the nihi-
lists, whose colony lies near the Pantheon
and in the Rue de la Glaciere. Among
these there are psuedo nihilists who act
as spies.
The excitement at Dunkirk, Compiegne
and Rheims is unbounded. Some doubt
over'hangs the nature of the visit to the
first named port. At Compiegne the dor
mitories Of the colleges, the gymnasium
and every scrap of room will be utilized.
The municipal council will allow the pro-
prietors of Paris restaurants space for
tents In the Avenue du Moulin. Tents will
also be provided for those who can find no
other accommodation except camping out
in the forest.
Evidently the concentration at Rheims
will be appalling, and strict regulations
are being drawn up for the array Of motor
cars not only from Paris, but from Ger
many. M. Delcasse spent today at Beth
eny arranging the plans Of the tribunes for
the ambassadors and other more distin-
guished spectators.

yENOMOUS SEA SNAKES.
Instances of Death Resulting From
Their Bites.

Instances of Death Resulting From
Their Bites.
From the Leisure Hour.
These snakes must not be confounded
with the very numerous species of sea eels,
which, though exceedingly savage and
armed with strong needle pointed teeth, are
all non-venomous, though their bite pro-
duces high Inflammation, II not at once

antiseptfc. The sea snake is true snake
in many respects, having either laminated
scales, or a thick corduroyed skin resem-
bling rudimentary acales, the head is fat,
and the general structure of the body sim
liar to that of the land snake. The writer
continues: whether any OF them possess
the true poison glands and fangs do not
know for although l have killed many
hundreds of them, l never took sufficient
interest to make a careful examination; !;
and I was told by ~ Dutch medical gentle
man, long resident on the coast of Dutch
New Guinea, and who had made much in
vestigation on the subject that he had
failed to discover any poison sacs or glands
in any one Of the many snakes he had
captured Yet in some instances he found
what at first appeared to be the two long
front teeth common to venomous land
snakes but on detailed examination these
always proved to be perfectly solid; never
theless. bite from one of these sea ser
tives as fatal.
In my own experience know Of two such
cases, one at the Island Of Fotuna, In
the South Pacific, and the other in Torres
straits. In Sigavi harbor, on Fotuna,
there Is a rock to which vessels OCCASION
ally make fast their stern moorings In
the boat which / sent away with a line
to this rock We're several boys, natives of
the island, who went with the crew for
amusement. One OF them, aged about ten,
jumped out of the boat, and in his hurry
fell on his hands and knees right on the
top of a large black and white banded sea
snake, which at once bit him savagely on
the wrist, causing the blood to flow from 4
score of tiny punctures. The boy at once
swan on shore to be treated by native;
in the evening 1 heard that he was suffer-
ing great agony; in the morning the poor
little fellow was dead. The second instance
was near Raine Island in Torres straits
A stalwart young kanaka, one of the crew
OF a pearling lugger, was diving for clam
shells on the reef when a snake about
three feet in length suddenly shot up from
below within a foot Of his face. In his
anger and disgust he unthinklngly struck
1t with his hand and was quickly bitten on
the forefinger. A few hours later he was
in high fever, accompanied with twitch-
ing OF the extremities; then tetanus en-
sued, followed by death In forty-eight
hours.
Although these sea snakes are common to
most tropical seas. they are most frequent
about the Great Barrier reef Of Australia.
On any smooth day they may be seen dis
porting themselves on the surface Of the
water. or, rising suddenly from the depths.

A BILLBOARD TAX.
Suggestions for Restricting Municipal
EyesOres.


From the Fourth Estate.
Many Of the leading daily newspapers OF
the country are devoting considerable edi-
torial space of late to a discussion of the
billboard nuisance, with which nearly
every community is sorely afflicted. 1t is a
healthy sign. and the agitation should be
kept prominently to the front until these
eyesores are put out of business.
The New York Tribune is strongly urging
the adoption of the French system of tax
ing signs as one means of checking this
growing nuisance Regarding this PROPOSE
ton the Brooklyn Eagle says:
Our excellent friend the Tribune, re-
verting to the subject of posters, urges
again the adoption Of the French system
Of taxing signs both a means for the
increase of the city revenues and the abo-
lition of what has grown to be a painful
nuisance. The time to reform Is now, for
every day sees the thing growing worse
The posters are increasing I'm size and
number. the wall paintings require the
sides of ten-story buildings. ones right to
his fence is not respected. the street cars
are filled with signs, the view up the street
Is blocked by them. they are hung in the
air from kites, they are to ne thrown on
the clouds by stereopticons, they are au-
daciously displayed against public build
ings. There is a very riot of such ugliness,
as. If it took the form of personal aggres-
sion. would call for police interference
And 1t could be done away by tax"
1t Is an open question whether the adop-
ton Of q system of taxation would ef-
fectually check the abuse or not It would
depend largely on the amount of the tax
and the res strictions under which the poster
man was permitted to do business.
With merely q stated tax and no restric-
tions as to the location and size Of these
poster signs, 1t is doubtful If the situation
would be materially changed 1t would
simply result In the billboard syndicate
boosting up the price to the advertiser in
order to cover the tax, and the long suffer-
ing public would suffer still

BIG GOLF TOURNEY.
Travis Defeated Douglas at Atlantic
City Yesterday.

City Yesterday.
Yesterday was a crucial day in the ma
tiona1 golf championship at Atlantic City.
Those veteran rivals, Travis and Douglas,
about whom the entire tourney has CEN
tered, met in the semi-final round and Ira
Wis won. In the same round were c. ii.
Seeley Of the Wee Burn Golf Club OF Nor
oton, Conn, and Walter E. Egan Of Chi
cago. Though lacking the interest OF the
other contest, the result assumed import
ance because Egans victory places west
erner in the finals for the first time since
1893 when Walter B. Smith of the Onwent-
sia Golf Club Of Chicago was runner-up to
Douglas.
An incidental result of this pitting Of
east and west has been to stimulate an
enthusiasm which promised to fade when
the outcome between Douglas and Travis
was known. 1t has aroused among the
players here a strong sectional feeling,
which Seeleys victory would have rendered
impossible. Though the westerners do not
go so far as to claim the championship
their assertion that Travis will find in
Egan mastery opponent is borne out by
the form of the young Chicago lad yeSter-
day. Though Seeley has overcome some of
the strongest men of the country, including
Travis himself, Egan won by the surpris-
ing score of II up and 10 to play.
Interesting as the final possibilities are,
they were forgotten in the earlier hours
of the day in the more immediate attention
centering in the Travis Douglas match. A
year ago Travis and Douglas met in one
of the open contests of the Atlantic City
Club, and Douglas won. That meeting was
recalled by many who saw yesterdays
play, and the opinion was freely expressed
that the result would be the same. So con-
fdent were the friends of the former cham
pion that even when the morning round
ended and Travis was up, many bets
were made on Douglas victory. Certainly
the champion never had closer call. On
the thirty sixth hole the score stood a tie.
An extra hole was played, and again the
two broke even. 1t was not until the
thirty-eighth green was reached that Ira
Wis ran down the clinching 15-foot put that
saved his title. 1t was grand battle ad
mirably fought and royalty won.
