RA1rLEsNAKs BITES.
Chicago Professor Claims They Are
Rarely Fatal.

Apropos of this srbject of rattle
snakes, the remarkable statement may
be quoted, recently made by Professor
Edmund J. James of the University of
Chicago. to the effect that death from
rattlesnake bite is q great rarity. He
has been working for twenty years.
he says. TO obtain well-authenticated
case of death from such n cause. Many
stories of people dying from rattle
snake poison had been found upon in
vestigation, TO be without foundation.
One genuine case discovered recently
in Georgia was considered by Profes-
sor james sufficiently remarkable to
warrant him in obtaining sworn af-
fidavit to the fact from the attending
physician. The case was that of a
man. a snake charmer," who was
bitten by large rattlesnake of the
variety known in the South as the
diamond rattler." The man died from
paralysis of the heart caused by the
bite after lingering in great agony
for eighteen hours.
