Cobras are selected by the so called
snake charmers of both Egypt and In
dia for their performances. The Egyp-
tan charmers sometimes pretend to
change the serpent into rod, and, ac-
cording to Godfrey st. Hilaire, this
appearance can be induced by giving
strong squeeze to the animals neck,
which induces a CONCLUSIVE rigidity
from which the animal soon RECEIVERS.
1t need hardly be said that the snake
charmers always carefully extract the
fangs of the snakes they use.-Quarter-

In the last few days his condition
rapidly grew worse and he was pro

EXPOSITION NOTES.

The breyity of Exposition Items this
week must not be attributed to the be-
ilef In the postponement of the great
event. but to a press of other matter
during the season of conventions, as
soelations, etc. Should the Louisiana
Purchase Exposition be postponed we
should aOt let our interest lag, but
Should, instead, rejoice because it will
give Us ample time to prepare a
worthy exhibit, and set the old State
Alright before the world.
1t is now certain that the exhibits in
all the departments will break all for
mer Exposition records, and present,
as whole, the most memorable and
inspiring school of progress ever in
stituted for the education of mankind.
The chiefs Of these departments have
had responsible connection with the
Worlds Fairs of the last twenty years,
and are all elated with the superior op-
pOrtunities now within their grasp.
The world has made startling progress
in many directions, even since the last
Paris Exposition. Some of its most
wonderful discoveries and far-reaching
inventions will be exhibited for the
first time at the Louisiana Purchase
H1Vnngitinn that,n
engines that promise to reyolutionize
transportation by land and water, and
working power in both field and fao-.
tory. The Chief of the Fine Art De-
Dartment, Prof. Halsey c, Ives, who
held the same position at the Chicago
Worlds Fair, declares, after a full sur
yey Of the resources at his command,
that the Fine Art Department at the
ST. Louis Worlds Fair will be far su-
perior to the one at Chicago. The offer
Of prizes for dirigible balloons and
aerodromes, or flying machines, has
awakened keen interest among inyen-
tors, scientists and aerO-clubs all over
the world in the great aerial contests.
1t is reported that Sir Hiram Maxim
will spent 100000 in constructing an
aerodome to win one of these prizes.
NJ. Santon-Dumont will devote a great
deal of time to preparation for winning
the dirigible balloon prize. Both these
gentlemen are expected to visit st.
Louis to confer with Exposition au-
thorities, and great hopes are enter
tanned that the congress of aeronautic
scientists at St. Louis in 1903 will
bring about a practical solution of
problem that mankind has never
ceased to study.
