OLD-TIME REMEDIES FOR SNAKE
 

l The subject of snake bite may occa- i sionally engage the individual practi- l tioner in a moorland countryside where. especially in the summer and autumn, cases are not unknown of infants dying 1 from collapse after being bitten by vi- pers. We have recently been informed that the "infalIible remedy" used by "Brusher' Mills, the well-known New [ Forest snake catcher, for the bits of the 1 adder or viper is the fat of the creatu 1 itself melted, bottled and applied, a drop at time, to the wound. The cure. he asserts, is an affair of two min utes. Mills has, of course, had immense experience with snakes, having in his 1 day killed or taken more than four thousand venomous and twenty-seyen thousand harmless specimens. He has, 1 in fact, practically devastated his own 1 field of operations round Lyndhurst. 1 His belief in his remedy is shared by Wiltshire and Hampshire rustics and is doubtless universal in the country dis tricts of England.
 The question is whether this treat ment is merely a survival of the old savage Homeopathy which ordains
 hair of the dog that bit you as a cure for the bite, or whether 1t is rude form of serumtherapy. Vipers are exceed ingly quarrelsome from the moment they break the egg and unless immune against venom would long ago have
 ceased to exist as a district species.
 Hence their fat may be kind of anti
 toxin. Of course, all fatty and oily
 substances are useful against poisons,
 which they doubtless absorb and iso- late. The old-fashioned London viper
 catchers," mentioned by White of Sel- borne and others always employed hot olive oil as cure or treatment for snake bite, and this with ammonia con- tinues to be recommended.
 We read of the oil cure in works on
 natural history, but find no mention of
 the peasants use of fat How came it to be used in the first instance? Proba-
 bly, in accordance with the savage the
 ory that fat blood, sputum and so forth,
 contain the life principle or "sour' of
 men and animals and are therefore a cure for and lesion. Fat was anciently used. to frighten away serpents from
 gardens and houses. The 'suet or deer
 strewed up and down where they (ad- ders) come will cause them to depart,
 says Agrippa of :Nettesheim, whose ideas, despite his scepticism were of ten those of the tribal medicine man.
 Bacon fat, mixed with the brains of a
 weasel, is recommended by him to scare away rats and mice. -,
 Drugs and charms obtained from snakes are, of course, very ancient. The witches in Macbeth make bale ful viper broth, butsthe same mixture was also medicine and cure for many
 diseases. The sloughs of snakes had also singular uses. The sixteenth cen- tury Jerome Cardan, is quoted in an old
 chapbook as saying, "If any do sprinkle
 his head with the powder of a skin that
 a snake doth cast off gotten or gath cred when the moonisain the full. being

 he shall see terrible and fearful dreams.
 And if he shall have 1t under the sole of
 his foot he shall be acceptable before magistrates and princes. - London Lancet. .ys..4

MITCHELL'S REPLY SENT. Probably a Rejection of the President s

iOpOSdl
 Wilkesbarre, Pa, Oct. 8.-President Mitchell has written his answer to President Roosevelt, but he declines to tell what its nature is. The letter was dictated before noon, and is now in the mails on it's way to Washington. Mir. Mitchell will not give out the text of the letter because he says it would be discourteous to the president. and whatever information the communica- ton contains must come from Wash ington.
 In view of the statements of the re- suits of the voting of the local miners unions throughout the anthracite re- zion, issued by President Mitchell at 1 o'clock to-day, and given below, it is hardly likely that the proposition of President Roosevelt for the men to go back to work, leaving the conditions in the coal regions to be investigated by a commission was accepted.

No Farther Developments i'm Strike

Washington. Oct S.-There have been no further developments here in the coal strike situation. The president has received no response to his sugges- tion submitted Monday evening to President Mitchell. of the coal miners union, and no new propositions have come from the operators, nor are there any in prospect so far as the admins tration is aware. With the protection now offered by Governor Stone it is as- stunned that the operators will try to make good their assertions that they will supply the country with coal. If President Mitchell refuses to entertain the last proposition Of President Roose- welt it is said that the developments in the coal region must solve the problem. If President Roosevelt has any other plan no intimation of it has yet been made.

SOUGHT 4
SOFT BERTH
Two Sailors Tried
|. To Break Into
Prison.
CHARGED MATE
OF "hONOLULU"
skipped When They Found They
WouIdn't be Sent to Prison
on Pay.

Two sailors from the schooner Homo
lulu made an unsuccessful attempt tc
break into Oahu Prison yesterday and
spend the winter in idleness at the ex-
pense of the United States, hoping tic
enjoy an income of a dollar a day at the
same time.
The two men had tried in vain to Sc
cure a discharge from Captain Stokke-
by and as a last resort appealed to the
United States Attorney. r. w. Brock
ons, in an effort to break their contract
and not only get ahead of the master
of the schooner but enjoy a comfortable
berth for the winter with good pay.
Complaint was made to Mr.. Breckons
early yesterday morning by Henry
Werner, seaman, against Frank Romer,
first mate of the Honolulu, and the
story of a terrible assault upon him
Werner) was corroborated by Jos
heidelberg, also of the Honolulu. Brock
ons, after listening carefully to the
story of the assault, was of the opin-
ion that the case would hardly warrant
an arrest, and tried to scare the sail
ors off with the statement that they
might also be arrested if the mate chose
to make complaint. Werner was in
sistent, however, and said he would
stay to prosecute, while heidelberg also
offered his kind services. Finally, late
in the afternoon, Mr.. Breckons agreed
to their wishes and a complaint against
Mate Romer was made out and sworn
to by Werner before United States Com
missioner Gill.
The Honolulu was scheduled to sail
at four o'clock and the warrant was
given Immediately to United States
Marshal Hendry for service. He
started out and requested that the two
sailors go along to point out their man,
and the trio started for the waterfront
together. The sailors had not gone far
when they began asking the marshal
for money to keep them for the night,
saying they had left the ship with but
a dollar, ana finally asked if they were
not to be sent to prison as witnesses.
Pursuant to instructions from the
United States Attorney, Hendry told
the men that they would have to re-
main of their own accord and shift for
themselves, anu this proved a settler.
In a few moments they began tagging
behind the marshal and when finally he
turned down Merchant street they kept
on to Queen. By the time he arrived in
sight of the dock he saw the two sail
ors running at the top of their speed
to the wharf, where a sl1if was speedily
pressed into service and they rowed
as if for life to catch the Honolulu
which was even then was being towed
outside by the Fearless.
Seeing his witnesses gone Hendry
gave up the search for the first mate,
but he had hardly reached the dock
when Romer called for his luggage, and
the marshal took him into custody.
The disappearance of the witnesses was
explained to Mr.. Breckons who advised
the release of the mate. He was taken
before Commissioner Gill and released
upon his own recognizance, until this
when a final discharge and
dismissal of the case will be formally
Romer quit the honolulu here.
