There exists among many persons a
belief that snakes ire creatures of
more or less defectiva organization.
Deprived Of legs and reduced to effect
their movements by sinuous windlngs
OF their elongated bodies and tails they
have an appearance Of helplessness
which may by itself excite compassion.
Yet no mistake of the kind could well
be greater. The principles OF evolu-
tiou suffice TO make It evident that the
structure Of serpents must be tolerably
good or else they could never have sur
vlved natures many destructive
agencies. But. In fact, their structure
is a marvel OF admirable contrlvances
and accurate adjustments. so that we
must affirm them TO be as perfectly
adapted to their requirements and pc
culier modes OF life as any other ami
mais.-Quarterly Review.

COURT MARTIAL.
Session Held to Consider Charges
AGAINST Colorado Guard

Session Held to Consider Charges
Against Colorado Guard.
Denver, Colo. Oct. 19.-The court
martial called by Gvernor Peabody
to investigate the charges against
the members of the National Guard
of Colorado convened at the capitol
at 1000 o'clock today. When recess
was taken shortly after the noon
hour the question of the postpone
mnet of the consideration of the
charges filed against Brig. Gen. Jne.
Chase, until recently in charge of
the troops at Cripple Creek was
pending.
The application for the postpone
ment was based on the statement
of the attorneys for General Chase,
to the effect that they had been de-
MED access to certain books and pa
pers now on file in the Adjutant Gen
erals Office, demand to inspect which
had been denied them. Also the
leading counsel for Gen. Chase. Wal
ter J. Stott. of Cheyenne Wyoming
was unable to attend upon the court
martial until after November 5th.
The court is asked to postpone the
hearing until some time after that
date.
The entire morning session was ia
ken up with the consideration OF
the question of the competency of
the court as a body to try General
Chase, because of the inferiority in
rank of the members to Gen. Chase.
Additional objections were made to
Col. w. r. Gilbert of Colorado
Springs and Maj. H. A. Naylor of
Victor, because of their alleged lack
of military experience and friendship
for the complaining witness Adj.
Gen. Sherman M. Bell. and personal
animosity TO defendant. ALI objec-
tions were overruled and the court
was sworn.
Col. K. w Fahenstock of Leadville
is president of the court.
Later: Court refuses to grant a
postponement.
