Bryan Criticises Utterances OF Senator Nc
Laurin.


w. j. Bryan takes Senator McLaurin
of South Carolina to task for what he
declares is his political flop. At the
same time, Mr.. Bryan admits that Sem
ator McLaurin's action marks the be-,
ginning of movement in the South
which will have an influence on the
politics of the nation. In an interview
Thursday he said
''It is not likely that Mr.. McLaurin
will be the leader of the movement,
because he is handicapped by the fact
that he is using his official position to
misrepresent the views and interests of
his constituents, but some leader will
arise to give direction and force to the
aristocratic and plutocratic element for
which Mr.. McLaurin speaks. There is
such an element in every community,
and now that the race question no
longer unifies the white people of the
southern states, it will doubtless mani
fest itself; the same influences are at
work in other states.
1.-The Democratic sentiment is strong
enough to resist and overcome the Nc
Laurin movement, but those who be-
lieve that the man is more important
than the dollar will have to bestir
themselves "

Welded LIFE IN sUMATRA.
Custom Of the Country Gives Care of
the boys Of a Family to
the Father.

The marriage customs of Sumatra
are quaint in the extreme and yet
neither sex seems 10 desire change.
The women certainly have little to
complain of. The husband is com
pelled TO settle marriage portion on
his wife before the nuptials are cele-
brated and, though he may subse-
quently get separation from her,
he can neither ALLEVIATE this portion
nor touch any Of the property she
may have brought into the marriage
contract.
Husbands and wives live in separate
houses, the former visiting the latter
every evening. III there are children,
the boys only live with their mother
until the fourth birthday, when they
take up residence with their father.
The girls remain with their mother
until they marry, which they do at an
early age. when they remove % a
small house close TO the maternal
dwelling, says Home Notes.
When = woman becomes a widow

from the wall, and, catlike, crept to-
ward the white man with the thing
on his shoulder. Within striking dis
tance he paused, and, raising the dah
high in the air, cut the thing in two
with one swift downward stroke. Then
his nerve, ratified and tugged at for 60
years until ii was weak, failed him,
and the sword clattered from his
numbed fingers to the floor. MY God'
/ can't do it, he whined in broken
voice, and reeled back against the wall,
where he stood staring with weak eyes
at the sahib and his burden.
Dunlop neither moved nor spoke; his
only safety lay in keeping perfectly
still-motionless. 1t might be minutes,
or a thousand years; they would have
to wait until the boatmen came. What
would happen then he could not say.
He could feel the clinging, pulling
thing on his right shoulder. There
was an undulating pressure that told
him the head of the snake was sway
ing back and forth Just above his neck.
Then the song of the Madrassi boat
men as they came swinging along with
his luggage broke upon his ear. Those
gin-thickened voices. caroling the
coarse refrain TO the time of the meas
ured trot, were angel voices. What
would the muddle-brained coolies do?
he wondered. If Emir Ally, his trust
ed servant, saw the thing. 1t might be
we'll; he had nerve and judgment even
close 10 that of a sahib. Emir Ally
was in the lead. When he came to the
steps Savage jerked out an expression
that called his attention 10 the tab
leau. Gathering his loongy tight about
his loins. he slipped along the veranda
likc a shadow, grasped the fallen dab,
and. poising his black, 1.-the body for
swift. strong stroke, brought the
sword through the air with swish
ing cut that laid a full-grown cobra
in two neat pieces almost at the feet
of the man who had waited.

PARADISE FOR SNAKES.
Islands I'm the hay of Bengal That
Are 0yerrun with Dead

The Borongo islands about half way
between Calcutta and Rangoon. When
the snakes die they go TO the Borongos.
That Is their paradise. There they
hold high carnival. / spent three years
among them, and know of these things,
writes w. A. Fraser. In Canadian Mag
azine. From the giant python down
20 the deadly KARAT they are all there,
all the ophidians. Even the saltwater
snakes, that are all poisonous-they,
too, are there. Two Europeans had
preceded me on the Borongos, so
there was considerable natural history
on tap whep / arrived, and we rapidly
acquired more. One can't live among
snakes without studying them; they
insist upon it.
Each evening I killed an hour or so
Of the monotony by walking up and
down the path in front OF the bunga-
low. A big cat was my usual conpan-
ion. His method OF Introducing him
self to my notice was generally abrupt.
He would lie in wait, and, as came
along. spring out upon me, alighting
against one Of my legs. At other times
he would lie on his back in the path
and claw at my feet as I passed. One
evening, Just after turning into the
path from the bungalow, I felt some
thing soft and yielding against my
foot. Thinking il was "Billy." / gave
the mass a gentle push. As i shifted
the something saw twisting gleam
If white. NOT at All IKE the gray Of
Biliy's fur. OF course i knew what that
meant. Jumping back, brought my
walking stick down on the twisting
thing, and yelled for light The serv-
ants came running from the cook
house with lantern, and I saw that
I had laid out a most villainous daboia.
One touch from the catlike fangs on
my cotton hosed instep, and within an
hour would have been dead.
One OF our party had occasion 70

owner on the other side Of the island.
He went in = boat. and while the coolies
