WAVE OF PROSPERITY
IS NOT YET SPENT

The farmers OF Nevada are reaping
such rewards as they never did before
says the News The wave of prosper
ity has struck them forcibly enough to
be termed a tidal wave.
Their cattle command the highest
price in years, as do in fact all farm
and range stock. Their hay is worth
about twice it's ordinary price in the
open market. Butter has risen from
the average Of former years Of about
% cents a pound to 35 cents pound
this weeks Eggs have been so cents
as against S5 of former years; grain II
up. and in fact everything in their line
demands top prices.
And by the way, no one will be-
grudge the farmers of Nevada their
well earned prosperity. The farmers
are the backbone of the country

deaf, bat he came to my rescue"
Potter got hold on the snake just
below the head. The others of the
party got a good hold, too. The adder
squirmed and many times nearly got
away. The four men were knocked
over but they held on. Potter kept a
tight hold of the snakes wind and in
time had him tuckered. The fight had
lasted for an hour when the snake was

eve would never have got him alive
in the world" says Potter, but for
the fact that his skin was tender and
he couldn't stand being hurt like he
could if his skin had been on a month S
time.
"The snake is a fine buff color
marked with black. He is remarkably
strong and continually shows his re-
sentiment of confinement by kissing and
splitting. All the scales of his nose are
worn off by hiS attempts to push his
head through a steel wire netting over
his cage"
To make the days sport complete
the party brought in three rattle
snakes. One had nine rattles, another
II and the largest -. These snakes
were four and five feet long. Lehman
is an old snake hunter. He has captured
200 rattlers in the last four or five
years, and all of them were taken on
Cat House Mountain. NOtwithstand-
ing the great number he has captured
Lehman believes the country is over
run with them yet "They multiplyvery
fast" he says. 81 captured a rattler
recently that had 25 young ones"
at is a common belief that snakes
shed their skins once year" added
Lehman, "but they shed them oftener
than that. This discarding of the old
skin always follows hearty meal. Let
a snake eat a rabbit. as they will, or a
chicken, and they take them into their
system with one bite, and Immediately
afterward they shed a skin. I've killed
rattlers and opened them up and found
a whole squirrel. I've tried to fathom
it out how they could take so large a
food morsel at once, but they can"
Several geological societies have

BATTLE WITH ADDER
Rich Prize Secured by a Connecticut
Snake Hunter.
when He Had the Reptile by the Tail,
and Three other Men Took Hold,
1t StIu Put Up a Tremen-
dOus Fight.

The largest adder ever caught in
Connecticut has, according to the New
York Sun, been taken alive by Otto
Lehman and {. E. Potter, of East
Glastonbury. 1t is ten feet and more
in length and weighs 12 pounds.
The East Glastonbury country is
very wild. Cat House Mountain, where
the adder was caught, has deep ravines
in which the sun never shines. As
years sometimes go by without man
entering them they are a paradise for
reptiles. The mountain gets its name
from a little log house where trappers
lived years ago when hunting wildcats.
No man had entered the particular ra-
vine where the big snake was caught
in ten years.
Lehman found the other day skin
which measured eight feet in length.
1t had evidently been discarded recent
ly. Knowing tnat snakes with new
skins are tender and sore, he thought
that the time had come for capturing
thereptile. SOhe Immediately organized
a party which included Tax Collector
Douglas, a farmland named Kinnery
Potter and himself. Along in the after
noon he spotted the snake in the scrub
timber. 1t was just Is feet in front Of
him.
About the time that Lehman discOy-
cred the snake the adder became ac-
quainted with Lehmann's presence. 1t
started TO run toward the rocks ahead.
'I thought he was going a mile a min
ute" said Lehman. He made a wild
dive and grabbed the adder about six
inches from the tail. The snake didn't
stop, though Lehman, who weighs 40
pounds, held on. 1t pulled him right

of Senator Eddie" Hagan he sue
ceeded to the leadership of the Eight
eenth district, where he has devel-
Oped an organization as compact as
any-eVen the far-famed Twenty
eighth - in the city. He never
held Office except in the Van Wyck
administration, when he was a dock
commissioner.
In appearance Mr.. Murphy is youth
full far below his years. His voice is
mild and his manner quiet and he has
a pronounced habit of never talking
until ne has something to say and
then not telling more than he wants
one TO know. He was recently mar
ried and lives in unpretentious style
in East Seventeenth street, facing
Stuyvesant square.
The new leader might be taken for
a priest at first glance. His smooth
shaven face, the high, straight collar
he wears, the black necktie, the dark
clothing help along the idea.
But inspection shows that his face
lacks something that is apparent in
the faces of all priests-the express
sion that comes from submission.
There IS nothing in the face of
Charles F. Murphy to indicate that
he would submit to anybody. 1t is
a fearless face, the face of a COM
mande, of men.
He mas a hard gray eye and thin
lips. When he smiles two funny little
wrinkles form in his chin, one on
each side. He has pleasant smile,
but he does not smile often. 1t might
be said that he has two smiles-One
he uses when he amuses himself and
the other when somebody else amuses
him. There is a difference in the
smiles. but it cannot be explained on
paper.

He is a blacksmith employed in the
shops of the American Shipbuilding
company in Cleveland, but is well
known for his liberal and even radi-
cal views in politics and economics.

gressional candidate on the nation
