SNAKES POWER 1o fAscINA1E.
How tho Black Gopher Hypnotized the
Ground Squirrel to It's Death.

GrOunu 10 us
Graham Peck, a well-known author
ity on snakes, was asked his opinion
regarding snakes hypnotic powers,
says a writer in the Detroit Free Press.
His reply was as follows;
There is certain power to fascinate
in snakes eyes and movements. l
saw only the other day typical Illus
tration Of the power of a snake TO fas-
cinate.
"Over in the pine woods l saw a
ground squirrel fascinated by black
gopher snake. The forked tongue
darted out of the snakes mouth almost
as regularly and rapidly as the needle
of sewing machine rises and falls.
The squirrel seemed TO watch it spell
bound. The snake crept slowly nearer.
when the gopher snake was within
two or three inches from the squirrel
it gave leap and threw three coils
about the squirrel. Instantly the spell
was gone. The fascination or charm
there had been over the little animal
was no doubt broken the very moment
the serpent's coils were about the
squirrel, for the animal gave three
convulsive, terrified chirps and realized
that it's death moment had come.
Il believe implicitly that all snakes
have a certain degree Of power to fas-
cinate their victims to death. Black
snakes, gopher snakes and racers have
the power to large degree. Rattle
snakes have the most fascinating
power among all the poisonous serpents
in the Southwest.
1.-THE indications of charming among
poisonous snakes are deceiving some
times Poisonous snakes fang their
prey once only. The poison does not
kill at once.
The victim flutters to n branch, ii
may be, or runs short distance and
stops. The snake watches it. The
poison does it deadly work and the
bird falls.
ANY one who comes up, not having
seen the attack, might be readily de-
ceived into imagining that it was the
glance of the snake and not the poison
that caused the victim to fall"

The Motor Drive.

electric motor, Frederick VI. Kimball
makes a statement probably less than
seven per cent. of the total horse

electrically. In view of the rapid
strides that have been made recently
in this direction it has been thought
that the use of the current was far
more general than this would seem to
Indicate. The same writer states that,
excluding railway motors, automobiles,
fans and elevators, there are 10000
motors in this country in daily opera.

college, situated in his native town,
and in that small Ohio college, and at
that early age he began the study
of the Hebrew language, in which
study he later was to become so dis
tinguished. He entered upon gradu-
ate work at Yale when only II years
of age, and at 10 received from that
university the high degree of Phi. d.
Now he was ready to enter upon his
work as an educator.
We find him while still in his teens
the principal of Masonic college, at
Macon, Tenn. At the end of year
there, he accepts the position of tutor
in the preparatory department at
Dennison university at Granville, O.,
remaining in the Granville institution
three years. Next, DR.. Harper labored
in the Baptist Union theological semi
nary, at Morgan Park, ILL.,, occupying
the chair of Hebrew and Old Tesla
ment exegesis. His fame as a He
brew scholar spread; he began to teach
Hebrew by correspondence, and also
organized the American Institute of
Hebrew. Then we find DIR. Harper as
ISOLATED with the Chautauqua move
ment and serving as principal of the
system. He received call to Yale,
and there filed the position of pro-
in the divinity school, served as in
structor in Semitic languages. In 1891,
he sailed for Europe, to spend year
in travel and study, before assuming
the responsibility of head of the new
University of Chicago.
At the age of "a, DR.. Harper became
head of this new seat of learning, an
institution that to-day, after the pas
sage of only IL years, has prestige as
well as bigness to commend it. How
ever, one cannot avoid the habit of
mentioning figures when referring to

Gator, DIR. James Burrill Angel. DIR.
Angel was originally an eastern man,
was born and brought up in Rhode Is
land. He was graduated at the head
of his class from Brown university
in 1s49, and after graduation and some
time spent abroad in travel, accepted
the chair of modern languages at
Brown, remaining there six years. Dur
ing this period he took much interest
in public affairs, and ever since has
been more or less prominent in pub

inserted and trimmed with fine black
lace. This would be becoming fin
ish to any simple bloE Sc or can be

about 1h yards of net, fire yards of

In Figure ~. we have a quaint
design for a blouse with the new
pelerine or shawl-like ends. For
this I would suggest a ring-spotted
net, in white or ecru, at IS lid

put as many lace insertions as you
like, or even dispense with them al

of very thin panne or soft oriental
satin would make the wide belt.

very attractive little coatee.

The president of one of our WESTERN
universities reports that there are, al
ways more college presidencies vacant
than there are men competent to filE
them. Then it would seem here is a
field for the aspiring young profess
sor, field by no means overworked.
But he should be fully cognizant of
the requirements-"a higher order of
administrative ability, together with
the practical grasp of a mind Welt
trained in business methods" He must
be equal to the educational function,
and the ceremonious duties of his of
fee. He must be something of an ora
tor. He must travel from place to.
place at any and every season of the
wear, to address learned societies or
gatherings of alumni in different cit
les; he must be the guest of sister
universities-he is expected, in short,
to be at eyerybody's beck and call,
while. at the same time he is supposed
to familiarize himself with each de-
tail of the daily life of his own insti-
tuition. He must know and judge the
men who carry on its work; he must
remove their difficulties, soothing the
irascible and satisfying the unreason-
able, and carrying on the whole thing
with tact, and yet with conscientious
fidelity to duty"

grace that the finest sun-ray plating
insures. AS for the wonderful fairy
work of it's adjoining, how can brush
or pen paint the effect of tiny folds
of crepe latticed through each other,
and held in place by elaborate stitch
ing and wee French dots of white
silk, clear set over ivory silk Burano
lace, or of lace inserted and applique,
and again as motifs and entredeux,
and still less of the semitransparent
grace of that cleverly draped piece
of crepe, which just suggests the
waist line with such entire success!
Foulard, the dear, old-fashioned,
practical foulard which we all love,
has given place to voiles and still
softer make of fabrics. Then for dull
days cloths, trimmed with taffeta, as
well as firmer make of canvas, and
spotted wolfe, are greatly to the
fore.
Altogether, fashion is at its bright
est and best just now. The only
trouble is to get sufficiently large
dress allowance. The temptations to
buy are manifold, and we all feel
inclined to overstep any moderate
banking account.

was first sung. British men-of-war
lie before the brave forts defending
Baltimore. Shot and shell has been
bursting over the city. Washington
lies in ashes behind the victorious
British army, and Baltimore's heroic
defenders are bravely standing by
their guns. The terrible uncertainty
of the night has been passed. The
smoke-stained, shot-riddled flag still
bravely waves over the ramparts of
the city. An assemblage of patriotic
defenders is gathered in restaurant
next door to the Holiday Street
theater. Charles Durang, a popular
singer of his day, is giving to the
nation the words of the song which
during the terrible hours of the
night had poured from the soul of
Key as he paced the deck of his YES
sci, guarded by British sailors, and
anXiously watched the course of bat
tie. We know the thrill which comes
with the singing of the song in patri-
otto assemblages to-day, but who can
measure the feelings with which that
restaurant audience listened to the
Star-Spangled Banner for the first
time. Dinner was forgotten. Again
and again Durang had to sing the
song The words and refrain were
caught up by the patriotic present,
and they fell to singing, too. The
words were printed upon hand bills
