Snake and schoo1-Ma,am.

That Montana school-ma ans have
nerve was fully proved in the case Of
Miss Agnes Greedy, of Truly. On open
ing her school in the morning, she
saw what she took to be a piece Of
old leather under her desk, and on
reaching for it, found she had hold of
rattlesnake. She neither screamed
1lor tainted, but proceeded to dispatch
the reptile with ruler. The snake
was five feet long and had IA rattles.
1t was great exhibition of GOODNESS
and prompt action. But I'VE ask it
humbly) what show would the average
small boy have in his pranks before
such a teacher, with ruler capable of
such execution? In such a case, order
would not only be the first law, but the
onl.- law worth considering.-Sa

CLOUDBURST IN TEXAS.
Heavy Loss of Life and Great DAM
age to Property and Crops
Reported.

San Antonio, Tex, July "a cloud
burst Thursday visited the southwest
ern section of Texas, causing the death
of several persons and entailing a
heavy property loss. No accurate re-
ports of the loss of life can be OBJ
tanned as the telegraph wires are down
in the storm-swept section, but enough
is known to warrant the belief that
more than 20 people, mostly Mexican
laborers and farm hands, persisted in
the flood At Beeville one Mexican was
swept away Near Normana ten Mex
lean farm hands are reported drowned
and II more are said to have been
drowned at Pettus. The heaviest dam
age was sustained by the San Antonio
and Arkansas Pass railroad. Several
thousand feet of it's tracks and one
large bridge were swept away
The flood, which was the result of
tremendous rains that have been falling
continually in southwestern Texas since
Tuesday last, swept down Medic creek
valley, submerging land and railway
tracks to depth of six feet. The towns
of Normanna and Pettus were COM
pletely inundated. Many thousand
acres of corn and cotton land were
swept by the torrent, and it is reported
that the crops will be total loss.

were found on the street at Washington

before noon Tuesday. Detectives who
had received clews early in the morn

mystery had been on the watch for
hours, and finally saw the child they
were seeking walking with stylishly-
dressed woman. The woman was at
once arrested and taken to the station

POSTAL DEFICIENCY.
VIII Run Over Four and Half Mill
lion Dollars This Year
The Cause.

Washington, July Capt. Castle,
the auditor of the treasury for the
post Office department, Thursday made
the official estimate that the postal de-
ficiency for the fiscal year just closed
will be $4,617,203. The deficit for the
previous fiscal year was S2,961, ITO
This big increase is attributed to the
enormous increase in expenditures
for the rural free delivery service
during the past year. The receipts of
the postal service for the year were
$134, 1858, 500 and the expenditures $685.
S5,812. The deficiency in the free de-
livery service is not yet definitely
known beyond the estimate made
weeks ago by the postmaster general
that it would be 1927 900 by the close
of the fiscal year. The deficiency,
however, may prove considerably
larger than that figure

TREATIES ARE SIGNED.
Formal Transfer of the Isle of
Pines to the Sovereignty
of Cuba.

Havana, July 3.-The treaty covering
the naval and coaling station bases and
the treaty placing the Isle of Pines
wholly under Cuban sovereignty were
signed Thursday at noon
President Palma and Mr. Squiers
could easily have reached an agree
ment, but the president consulted nu-
merous senators, congressman and 9TH
ers, whose opinions carried considerable
weight, with the result that many sug-
gestiOns were made and some misunder-
standings occurred. The question of
smuggling was especially slow in set
Element, the Cubans proposals being so
exacting as to be impracticable.
The occupation of the naval and coal
ing stations will be perpetual, the rental
price being purely nominal and based
on the cost of acquiring the stations and
sites by the Cuban government, the
United States advancing any money
necessary for the purchase of private
lands at Guantanamo and Bahia Honda.
The two treaties, which are the last
of the six between the United States
and Cuba, were subscribed in duplicate
at the secretary of states Office The
signers were Minister Squiers, Senior
Garcia Monies, secretary of the treas
ury, and acting secretary of state in
Senior Xaldo's absence. The others
present were Senior Pevia, assistant sec-
rotary of state; Senior Diego, chief of
the department of justice, the legation
secretaries and Mr.. Squiers' eldest son.
The Isle of Pines treaty was signed
last While turning over the island to
the absolute sovereignty of Cuba, the
treaty safeguards the rights and privi-
leges of the American residents on the
island as though they were on Amer
lean territory. Property and judicial
and educational rights are especially
guaranteed, as well as the conveniences
for reference to and registration of
property and other public business. 1t
is pointed out that the American land
holders are better off in respect to taxa
ton than they would be under United
States sovereignty.
There were practically no difficulties
or delays in reaching an agreement on
the subject of the Isle of Pines treaty,
but the naval stations lease was the
subject of long and tedious negotiation.
Washington, July 3. = Secretary
Moody expressed great satisfaction at
the news from Havana of the signing
of the coaling stations treaty. This
document has been the subject of many
exchanges between the two govern
ments and the task of completing it to
the satisfaction of both governments
has been tedious one. 1t is earnestly
hoped that the Cuban senate, before it's
adjournment, will ratify the treaty as
the navy department is anxious to pro-
coed at once with work on the stations
Preliminary surveys of the land in fact
already have been made at Guantanamo
and the Olympia has been retained in
Caribbean waters to be ready to land
men and begin the work as soon as the
authorization comes from Washington
About 100000 is Immediately available
for the beginning of the work at Guam
tanamo.

STORM VISITS NEW YORK.
Follows a Period of Intense Heata and
Causes Several Deaths-Many
Persons Injured.

New York, July "a terrific storm
intense heat: There were four deaths
from the heat and score or more Of
prostrations. Already three deaths,
traceable to the storm, have been re-
ported, and many persons caught in the
fury OF the wind were injureda
Fannie Kinsler, a six-year-old child,
frightened by the storm and blinded by
the rain, ran directly under a swiftly
moving wagon, and was killed instantly
John Dominick, dock laborer, was
knocked into the East river by plank
which had been picked up by the wind,
and was drowned
The wind swept the embers of bon
fire, kindled by number of boys, over
the pinafore of three-year-Old Clarence
Hadden, and he was burned to death.
At one time the gale blew at the rate
of Y miles an hour in the upper part
of New York, according to the weather
bureau. Many places were struck by
lightning, which played continuously
for an hour or more. There were in
reality two storms, but they blended
into one. The Bronx was the first to
feel it's effects, and the lower portion of
that berough suffered most A wind Of
extremely high velocity swept from
west to east, uprooting trees, smash
ing plate glass windows, blowing pedes-
TRANS from their footing and doing all
kinds of damage. Apparently the
storm was in two divisions, one adj
vancing down the valley of the Hudson
river and the other approaching from
Long Island Sound, which was torn
into fury by the force of the wind.
These two divisions met over the lower
Bronx with dazzling displays of cleo
tricity. The first wind storm was fol-
lowed by heavy fall Of rain, like
cloudburst in character, and shower
of large hailstones.
