CHARMED BY A SNAKE. .
Miss Longs Wierd Experience With One
of the Racer Species.


The power of snake to charm was
proven by an incident near Nc
Connellsburg, Penn, On Thursday,
Miss Lavinia Long, a young lady,
was returning from here to her home,
west of the Ridge, and as she became
tired walking she sat down upon q
rock beside the turnpike, between the
farms of ]. K. Tritle and Mrs. Sum-
mers. In few minutes large black
snake, of the racer spieces, came down
off the high bank along the road and
approached to within couple of yards
OF her, and erecting the fore part of it's
body stared her straight in the eyes, its
head gently swaying to and fro.
Miss Long says she became almost
helpless, a benumbed feeling took pos
session of her; she was scared, but did
not seem to be able to move and could
not take her eyes away from the gaze
of the reptile, which became immova-
BILE and made not sound. With a
strong effort the young woman arose
and got upon a fence, the racer stealth
lily following her, it's eyes fixed on hers
and its tongue darting in and out in a
bewildering manner. Just as Miss
Long began to feel dizzy and drowsy,
fairly hypnotized team approached,
and at the noise the snake gilded off.
Mics Long nearly lost consciousness
when rescued, and since her experience
has been so nervous that it is almost
impossible for her to sleep. The men
in the team saw the snake, but could
not catch it.

determination Of Human Race.

Extreme temperatures will kill all
mankind, asserts Professor Ludwig
Marienburger, Phi. D., graduate OF
the University of Berlin, who is in
Chicago. He explains this summers
excessive heat on the basis that in it's
annual revolution about the sun the
earth is approaching nearer and nearer
to that orb every summer and getting
farther and farther away every winter.
The ultimate result will be that hu-
manity will go through process of
baking and freezing until there is no
living being left. He says "agss may

Wrong End Foremost.

In bis recent letter to the secretary
of the Missouri Jubilee Association re
GREETING his inability to attend the
Missouri Day celebration in Kansas
City ON August 10, Mark Twain said:
''By the error in the plans things 60
wrong end first in this world; and 80,
muchprecious time is lost that matters
of urgent Importance are fatally re-
tarded. Invitations which a brisk
young fellow should get, and which
would transport him with joy, are de-
layed and impeded and obstructed un-
til they are so years overd ue when they
reach him. 1t has happened again in
this case. When 1 was boy in Mis-
souri, was always on the lookout for
invitations, but they always miscar-
ried and went wandering through the
aisles of time, and now they are arriv-
ing when 1 am old and rheumatic and
can't travel and must lose my chance.
1 have lost world of delight through
this matter of delaying invitations.
Fifty years ago I would have gone
eagerly across the world to help Gel
ebrate anything that might turn up.
1t would have made no difference to
me what it was 80 that was there and
allowed chance to make noise.
"The whole science of things is turn
ed wrong end-to. Life should begin
with age and It's privileges and accu.
mutations, and end with youth and it's
capacity to splendidly enjoy such ad-
vantages. AS things are now, when
in youth dollar would bring you
hundred pleasures, you can't get it;
when you are old you get it, and there g
nothing worth buying with it then.
It's an epitome of life. The first half
Of it consists of the capacity to enjoy
without the chance, the last half con-
sists of the chance without the capaci-
ty."
The healthy old man wears his hairs
like a silver crown. What if he be
threescore and ten if there is still fire
in his eye, firmness in his step, COM
mand in his voice and wisdom in his
counsel? He commands love and rev.
erence. Yet how few wear the mantle
Of age with dignity. Dim eyed, quer-
ulous of speech, halting in step, child
ish in mind, they flag superduous on
The stage" dragging out the fag end
Of life in a simple existence. The sec
ret of healthy old age is healthy
middle age. The man who takes care
Of his stomach. who keeps his body
nourished, will find that the
body does not fail him in old age. The
great value of DR.. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery lies In the preserva
tion of the working power of the sto-
mach and other organs of digestion and
nutrition. From this center is dis
tributed the nourishment of the whole
body, the salt for the blood, the lime
for the bones, phosphates for the brain
and nerves. A sound stomach means
a sound man. A man who keeps his
stomach sonnd by the use of "Golden
Medical Discovery" will wear the
crown of gray hairs as BELTS monarch,
with dignity and ease.

CAME OFF THE PERCH
South Side Football Boys Apologize
to Principal Ozias.
CAPTAIN sLoNE is DEPoSED
Coach Fitzgibbons Is Let Out and
Clarence Myrick Is Made
Captain,

The members of the South High football
team have caDitulated. Yesterday Cap
tain Slone was removed from his position
though retained on the team. Coach
Fitzgibbons was discharged, and the eleven
formally apologized to Professor A. N.
Ozias, principal of the school, for their
action in going to Duluth without permis-
sion.
The team then elected Clarence Myrick
captain. Myrick is a colored boy and one
Of the surest ground gamers on the team.
His election is a high compliment to his
ability and he enjoys the distinction of
being the only negro who has ever been
selected to run team belonging to the
interscholastic association.
The change In the situation at the South
High will not be allowed to interfere
with CentraPs game with Carleton, which
will be played at NorthroD field Friday
afternoon. However, a game between
Central and the South High will be ar
ranged for later.
Special interest attaches to this game
because of the intense personal rivalry
existing between Myrick and Marshall,
CentraPs colored player. The men play
opposite to each other and they have
long wanted a chance to test their
strength. This feeling Of rivalry has
been carefully fostered by other mem
bers of both teams. and both the colored
captain and his dusky opponent are eager
to try conclusions.
Professor Ozias has announced that all
difficulties have been cleared up and says
that in view of the teams apology he will
no longer decline to issue certificates, as
required by the interscholastie rules.

ON THE GRIDIRON

Isle man who served under Rogers as
captain Baine, Haskells left tackle, also
played on last years Carlisle team. In
the game against Kirksville, recently,
Baine is said to have gained more ground
than any other man on the team, and to
have performed feats that were little
short Of wonderful.
There Is no doubt about the fact that
the Haskell team is a fast one and may
give the gophers a rude jolt, "if they
don't watch out" The following is a brief
extract from an account of the game be-
tween Haskell institute and the Ottawa,
Kan, team:
The best game of football by all odds that
was ever played here was witnessed on the
college campus between the strong Ottawa
team and the invincible Indian team from
Lawrence. The latter won by the score of
2S to 0. The Ottawa team, while putting up
good game was simply run over by the husky
Indians. The braves made end gains, gains
through the center and gains most any old
way hardly ever falling to make gains when
they had the ball.
Aside from the novelty of seeing full
team of Indians play, therefore, there is
rare sport ahead for Saturday afternoon.
Practice Was Slow.
The Minnesota team was aent out
through an hours practice yesterday
The heat affected the men and the play
was lacking in snap, but the offehse
worked smoothly and the varsity had a
comparatively easy time with the scrubs.
Schacht and Mueller are not likely to
play Saturday. Thorpe probably will be
played in Schacht's place at right tackle,
while Kicker or Jensen may be selected
to take Mueller's place at right guard.
Boeckman, whose injured knee has been
bothering him since Saturdays game
went through the signals with the varsity.

UNSPORTSMANLIKE
Conduct of Certain Duluthians L. So
characterized.

Members Of the Central high school
eleven are indignant at statements made
by Duluth newspaper, to the effect that
the officials in Saturdays game favored
the Central team. Coach H. 9. Loomis
said:
The statement is made that Umpire
Mccall did not treat the Duluth team
fairly in his decisions. st. Paul paper
goes farther, and claims that Mccall was
at Duluth for two weeks watching the
work of the Duluth team, and that, al
though an official he gave away their
formations to Central.
"As matter OF fact Mccall was not
an official. The referee was Glyn of Du-
luth, and the umpire was Walker, form
erly Minneapolis man. but now in busi-
ness at Duluth. Mccall had no official
connection with the game.
Further Mccall did not go to Duluth
until Friday afternoon, and never saw
a Duluth team play until Saturday.
I'VE received he worst treatment at
Duluth that the team has had in a long
time. Coach Park was allowed to go upon
the field to attend to some Of his injured
men, upon promise that he would not at
tempt to coach.
''In spite of his promise he was de-
tected advising his players about the
game. Then, toward the close, when he
saw that his team was beaten he tried to
get the crowd to push out on the field
and break UP the game. Then, again, he
attempted to persuade one Of the officials
to declare the game forfeited to Duluth
and declare all bets off.
Again, Duluth refused to give up the
ball used in the game. 1t is an unwrit-
ten law Of football that the winning team
is entitled to the ball.

MANY HAVE FALLEN
Eligibility Rules Seem to Have Been
Shattered Generally.

Special to The Journal
Fargo, N. D., Oct. 3O-The recent agi-
tation over the eligibility of Quarterback
Williams, Of the Iowa team, leads to the
report that there are a lot of others as
ineligible as Williams, barring the fact
they did not play under assumed names,
as Williams did. Turner, of the Ham
line team, was the regular frstbaseman of
the Langdon ball team In the North Da-
kota league last summer and was presum-
ably one of the highest salaried men in
the aggregation. Joe" Zalusky, who is
putting up a star game on the gridiron
this fall with Knox college, was the regu-
lar catcher on the Larimore team on
which Williams, as "Wylie" played short
field. "Joe" was not wandering over the
Dakota prairies playing baseball for his
health. There are others in the same
boat and rigid enforcement of the ruling
by which Williams was excluded from the
game at Minneapolis Saturday would
wreck at least three football aggrega-
tionS.

BADGERS, WEAK POINT

MAY STEAL SILVER BUT NOT COPPER
Special to The Journal
Calumet, Mich, Oct. 30-The Mass Con-
solidated Mining company is evidently not in
favor of the free silver doctrine practised
at its mining location. The Mass mine is
notably rich in silver, and for some time
the company has suspected that large part
Of the silver produced does not reach the
company. Last week several employees were
arrested on the charge Of stealing. All the
mines the Lake Superior copper district
produce more or less silver. the greater part
of which never reaches the Golfers of the
companies. The doctrine among the miners
appears to be that it is wrong to steal cop
per- but perfectly legitimate to pocket silver.

Comment of DIR. H. L. Williams on
Team of 1900.

In Outing for November, DR.. H. L. Will
liams, director of athletics at the uni
versity, has an article on football in the
middle west in which he speaks as follows
Of the gopher team of 1900:
The makeup Of the Minnesota team was
quite remarkable-not man on the eleven
being less than six feet tall and the general
average height being six feet one inch. Every
man on the team was clean-cut and swift and
active, combining weight, speed and strength,
and at the end Of the season, when the team
had reached the edge OF its true form the
aggregation. was one Of the most formidable
the writer mas ever seen.
This bears weight in view of the fact
that DR.. Williams has been more or less
familiar with all of the eastern teams.
